Thanks for sharing.
However, I have to recommend a tool that I have been using. 
In most cases, we know how to erase data on iPhone, and the cases we need help erase the data are when iPhone is bricked or frozen. TunesKit iOS System Recovery [tuneskit.com] can restore your iPhone and get the data erase, even when the phone is not reacting to any command.
Hope it helps.

Thanks a lot. I have ever used PanFone iOS Eraser. It is indeed useful. But recently, I know another technical data erase called Joyoshare iPhone unlocker mac [joyoshare.com]/windows. It is very easy-to-use and has the ability to erase data on any iOS device within a few clicks.
