factory reset should work...through recovery mode (turn phone off, hold home button + volume up + power until phone turns on, then navigate to factory reset)....note that this WILL wipe all your data, apps, messages etc

Won't work, just fill it up with wrong tries and it will completely reset your phone.

Asking for this kinda password?? ::
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1215590
if yes, your options:
- you can avoid this screen, if you can crash the dialer app? with home button spam? (search for more details)
- you can also can avoid the password screen by flashing a CUSTOM rom + remove your sim card, by going through the first startup google wizard (DO NOT FLASH A STOCK ROM, else you end up with worst-case scenario) don't let to phone to lock itself, because the password screen gonna pop up again. You can turn it off inside: Settings -> Location & security -> Select device administrators
-WCS if you have the exact same problem like i do (on the video) you need to type a password (something) over and over, the phone will warn you that if you miss your password once more, it will format your internal sdcard (you need to do this twice) after this the phone will reset itself.

Help
"Unlock With WiFi" has turned my phone into a brick as well. How many times do you need to enter the wrong password? I've done it like a 150 times.
Have the clock work mod and am running villain rom. I am totally stuck here. Please help.

Don't bother trying to input an invalid pass until you flash stock rom/kernel, or you'll be at it forever.....

Pour effacer le mot de passe demarrage
for removing screen password
merci
ca fonctionne tres bien
thnx
it works really

[Q] SGS2 on O2 contract asking for a password in recovery mode

Hi,
I got my SGS2 from O2 yesterday, went to check recovery mode is working ok and it is asking for a password. Has anyone else on O2 had this? For the short time I had my SGS on Gingerbread I got asked for the same when trying recovery mode.
Just tried on my unlocked T-Mobile phone from CPW and it goes in fine.
Blue text, Android system recover (3e), and options to reboot, apply update.zip, wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition.
Also this was done on a rooted phone although im pretty sure i also tried it before rooting and it still worked then.
Password is your screen unlock password.
It turns out it is because I had the screen lock set to a PIN.
Yep, If you have either a screen lock PIN or password set the recovery rom prompts you for them (although if you set a pin it still refers to it as a password in the recovery rom which can be confusing).
However if you set a pattern lock then no prompt is given.
nice to know
Thanks for the info
I was sure my recovery got locked by the store I got it from ... (If its possible)
After replacing my Email.apk without any security and canceling the PIN all is well.

[Q] Market account

Hello all
does anybody know how to change the google account password that i use to login to the market, and gmail on my atrix?
i changed the password on my desktop and now the phone is giving the wrong password, so i cant login to either accounts with my phone.
stock phone except for root
any help is appreciated.
thank you
Settings=>account=>Remove account, then re add it
Remove account
thankyou for your reply ,
i tried that before posting here.
the phone replies with " this account is required by some apps, you can only remove it with a factory reset"
i was hoping not to have to do that. but
if your bootloader is unlocked does a factory reset cause any problems?
like the b word
thanks again
All factory reset reset does is take the ROM back to the state it was when you first flashed or our set it up.doesn't flash anything won't cause a brick

[Q] Enter recovery password?

So my daughter got a hold of my phone. "I think" she tried entering the password too many times. Now phone just displays:
Just my Background Picture and this message below.
"To unlock, enter recovery password"
______________________________
Under this message is a Emergency Call button.
I tried my phone password, google password, and Outlook password. All not working. After entering my password, and it is incorrect I get this message:
"You have incorrectly attempted to unlock the phone 1 times. The phone will now be reset to factory default" OK button. (DONT CLICK OK, Just restart phone by holding down power button)
I then just power off and restart. After restart -> Samsung logo -> Verizon logo, it goes back to the "To unlock, enter the recovery password" screen.
Don't want to go to factory default, Any help or suggestions???
Verizon Samsung S3
Verizon just pushed out the KitKat update to my phone last month.
NOT rooted, just stock Verizon ROM.
I can call this cell. I still works. But can't get to regular unlock screen. Always just goes to this Recovery password screen.
Do a hard reset.. no another way
Really... Is there no Default "recovery password". I don't remember setting one up. Any Google work around? I tried searching online, and I don't see anything about this "Recovery Password"... Is this new or do people just not get to this screen?
Well, if there is any Odin-flashable recovery for your phone, you can flash it and then pull important data using ADB. You can also take a Nandroid backup and then use Nandroid Manager to see if you can recover any more data from the ROM.
This will void your warranty.
Bingo... So if anyone is still having this issue, you DON'T have to do a factory reset. I finally solved it (at least it worked for me). Here's how I did it. You need a Google account setup already for this phone. Go to: wwwgooglecom/android/devicemanager (add dots, come on xda, I'm not a newbie -> join in 2009) I tried to Locate and I tried to Ring, they both worked, but you need to do this -> Click the LOCK icon. Then it will try to find your phone. If it does find it, it will ask for a NEW password to "LOCK" your phone. After entering your password, your phone will "LOCK" itself. (Even though it has been locked out already) Once that is done, I went back to my phone and try entering this "new" password I setup in the: recovery password location. It works. Good luck...
Not sure how to mark this Thread as Solved...
Bloody Legend!!
You wanted to say thanks mate.
My S5 has presented me with this screen twice, in the past week! The first time it wiped my phone (and SD card).
Happy New Year!!!
J.
Going to wwwgooglecom/android/devicemanager doesn't work anymore. Now when you try that process, you will get a pop-up saying that the device is already locked and the new password you put in will not be used. You are still required to put in the old Recovery Password. I have wiped the phone and tried to find where one would put in a recovery password and cannot find it.
I contacted Samsung and they told me to use their system. Go to findmymobile(dot)samsung(dot)com and log in (assuming you registered). I logged in, went through the process to unlock my phone. I could see the notification that the unlock was successful, but the lock is still in effect. Samsung support said I would have no other option than to wipe the phone again. I asked how I could get support for the Android lock that was in effect, and they referred me to support(dot)google(dot)com. If you go there, and work your way through the menu, you find that the manufacturer of the phone is supposed to handle Android OS support.
So Samsung has added a proprietary remote unlocking feature, but somehow forgotten to disable the built-in one. Since they have that extra "feature" they won't support the default one.

Cant access device after Android 9

Hi ! Today i bought my Pocophone F1 and updated it to MIUI 10. Created MI account, entered my google account and downloaded Android 9 update. After the installation of the update i no longer can pass the first settings screen. There is a Confirm your password section where the keyboard is only numerical and cant enter any of my passwords cause they all contain letters. I cannot install another ROM because my bootloader is locked and cannot unlock it from this state. I can access all of my accounts from computer, just dont know what is this only numerical password ... Would be glad if anyone can help !
Hi, I have exactly the same problem and conditions. Today I got the smartphone, registered on the page, updated with:
miui_POCOF1Global_8.11.29_14c6931f61_9.0.zip.
(MIUI10/choose lang/chose your region/connect to network/terms and c./checking for updates/copy apps&data(skiped)/checking info/confirm your passsword)
Wipe data did not help.
I've been desperate for hours. Please help

Its seems is somehow google account related. Managed to flash the same ROM (cause its the only one i can flash with locked bootloader) with XiaomiADB and MI account dissapeared, but only Google one left. It let you go without wifi connection to the end but just when you press the last button to go to the homepage it says you cannot because there is a google profile here and Couldnt been able to bypass it cause all the techniques dont work here, like for example the talkback gesture and SSID copy stuff. Tried even to remove my device from my google profile, but with no luck for the moment ...

I suspect more likely a numeric password, which would have to be connected to Xiaomi-account.(it's google)
When I turn off the wi-fi I get a message that the phone is assigned to a Xiaomi-account with the number xyz (account number is not this asked password) which can not be checked.
Ive send the device back to the seller. Actualy i contacted Xiaomi global support, but the bad news is they cannot understand the problem i have with the device, despite the description i gave them. I wrote them if the seller cannot fix it and decline to send a new device to give them IMEI and Mi account to unlock the bootloader since i cannot access the device. I doubt instaling official rom void warranty. We will see tomorrow.
Have someone any idea?
To try to remedy to this you might want to follow these steps. Do it in quick succession.
1. Press Power Button and Vol Down simultaneously to force shut down the device.
2. When the screen switches off quickly press Power Button and Vol Up, this will give you access to Recovery Mode
3. From there, you need to wipe your data (factory reset)
Here you use volume buttons to navigate and power button to select.
I don't know of any other way for your situation.
Hi I've the same solution there is the solution

i had a similar problem after unlocking the bootloader, i had to log in to my mi account which gave me a normal keyboard but to then go online i had to enter my wifi password which gave me no keyboard at all.
i used a usb keyboard with an otg adapter to circumvent the issue, worked fine but shame on xiaomi for such a bad software...
