    I got the iphone 4s a few weeks ago, and last night while drunk i changed the passcode on my phone, and just woke up and cant remember it and now my phone is disabled...i googled it quick and only thing i found was to reset the phone, but the problem is i have nothing backed up on it so i dont want to lose all my info...hoping someone in OT knows how to fix this without losing all my info

    1. ctrl-alt-delete
    2. start task manager
    3. end your iOS-5 password maintenance process
    4. go to home screen and select "change pin"
    5. select a pin you are familiar with
    6. these steps will allow you to bypass password reset or factory reset
    7. good luck

    Something similar happened to me in Vegas, I had just gotten a new cell with a new provider, and hadn't set my voicemail password. Well I must have gotten my first voicemail when I was there, because I set the password while smashed on my first night there. It literally took me 2 months to get into my voicemail, and it turned out I just made it something like "7777" or "8888".
