Unlock locked iPhone (forgotten passcode) KNOWING APPLE ID PASSWORD and WITHOUT FACTORY RESET

[donde]

Is it possible to unlock an iPhone which has been locked due to too many wrong passcode digits, knowing Apple ID and password, without a factory reset?

Thank you

I don't think so but you can just restore it from the latest iCloud backup so you won't lose anything. This is if you didn't turn off iCloud backups.

Maybe someone knows a way though

You have to do a restore in that scenario.
