You will need to erase your iPhone and set it up again, which you can then restore from an iCloud Backup. Since you state that it’s been a while since you have done a backup, you have no choice but to restore from that. Let this also be a learning lesson to keep your iCloud Backup’s up to date for cases like this. You should also have Automatic iCloud Backups on.


Now follow the link Bob Timmons provided if your iPhone is unavailable and proceed from there.
