There is no beating around the bush that the iPhone is a technically advanced phone but just because it is advanced, it does not mean that one should have the brain of Steve Jacobs to operate it. So what could be the answer to the question of how to reset a locked iPhone? Going about it is very simple. There is a sleep/wake button on top of your iPhone, which you are supposed to press and hold till a red slider appears then press the home button for the unresponding application to be stopped. Now you are supposed to switch off the iPhone then switch it on then go back to the wake/sleep button and press it again till the red slider appears.
Now this time drag the slider and press the wake/ sleep button till you see the apple logo. Resetting occurs when one holds the wake / sleep and home buttons for almost ten seconds and the apple logo is displayed. How to reset a locked iPhone can also be as easy as a matter of going to the general menu and selecting the sub menu of reset then you also select to reset all settings. No information will be deleted it is only that their settings will have changed.
