iPhone Unavailable

It doesn't say iphone is disabled after i entered the wrong passcode in a bunch of times. I had a fever yesterday and was certain my iphone was my laptop and kept entering the wrong passcode, which i now remember.

Can i get my phone to let me enter my passcode? If so,

How can i get this iphone 13 working without a factory reset?

"iPhone unavailable" is the new message when you tried the wrong passcode too many times.

You can sometimes remedy this without a computer if on iOS 15.2 or later, but you will still need the Apple ID password. It will WIPE the phone. No way round it.
