So the other day i put post up saying about my broken LCD, and as I couldn't see what I was doing on the phone, I have typed in the wrong passcode too many times I have now got a working LCD, and everything is working fine but my iPhone is disabled. Just wondering if I can re-jailbreak right now and it will un disable it? Or will i need to back it up and restore first before I jailbreak?

If it is disable, you will need to backup and restore the device. Then you can jailbreak it.

Edit: It might just be that you have to sync with iTunes and not restore. Correct me if I'm wrong.

When i input my passcode too many times its only disabled for X amount of minutes. I say wait a little longer to see if it goes away.

If not, then you should connect it to the PC, back it up and restore from last back up.

After a certain amount of tries it disables the phone and you have to sync with iTunes. I believe it goes 1 minute, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 1 hour, then disabled. I did it to my brother one time. He was so mad, especially because he didn't have his laptop with him.
