My boyfriend accidentally factory reset his iPhone and now he can't remember his email password, which he needs to set up the phone. We want to know if there's a way to set up the phone without entering the email information first so that he can recover his email later and restore all his old data.

You can definitely set up the iPhone without logging into iCloud. Just skip that step during the initial setup process. After the setup, you can log into iCloud by going to Settings and tapping on your Apple Account.

So, he can just set it up blank and then add his iCloud later?
