Dear Sorta,
Please follow below instruction:
Turn it off by holding home+ power button untill the screen goes black ( as soon as it goes black, release the buttons).. This might take some practice , so dont worry if on the first try your phone reboots and goes to itunes screen again.
Now, with your phone powered off, enter DFU mode:
Method 1)

  • Attach the phone to the pc
  • Turn the phone off
  • Hold power and home together for *exactly* 10 seconds
  • Release power but keep holding home until the pc beeps as a USB device is recognized.
Whilist in dfu mode, itunes will recognize the device and it will ask you if you wish to restore it. Simply click restore, and the restoring proces will begin.
This will hopefully fix your iphone.
Cheers

SOURCE: My iPhone is disabled for 4,566,757 mintues, HELP!

The only way is to reflash a new firmware and wipe the code as well as the phone clean.
To do this start itunes on your computer. Then connect your phone to the computer. Once itunes detected your phone hold the POWER and the HOME buttons down at the same time for about 10 seconds. Once the phone flashes off, let go of the POWER button and keep holding the HOME button until you see a message on the itunes telling you that your phone is detected and needs to be RESTORED. Follow directions and it will do its job. I appreciate your positive vote. Thanks

SOURCE: iphone disabled to "connect to itunes" but needs passcode

Turn your phone off and plug it into your computer holding the home button down. That will put your phone into restore mode.

How can I unlock my iPhone 5s?

It should already be unlocked. The sim card is most likely the issue. example: you can't hotspot with Verizon.. takes a new sim card or different carrier.
