Hi all,
I'm using samsung galaxy s2 with CM9 android 4.0.4, rooted phone. i was going through the security settings and did 'ENCRYPT PHONE'. After completing the procedure (which took around 45 mins to complete) there is no option to unlock my phone using slide unlock, face unlock, pattern unlock and none options. and every time my screen locks, i have to enter the password. please help me to activate the slider unlock option, as it was a cool feature on my phone. i have tried everything, but still no results.
any help will appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hey!
Changed my lock screen pin today, but apparently entered it wrong (twice?) so it wasn't what I thought it would be...
How do I go about unlocking it? I really don't wanna reset the device or install a new rom!
My Galaxy Nexus is rooted, I have gmail pw, ADB access and pin code...
Please help fast!
Thank you
if the phone still has access to the internet (wifi or data) then once you try to enter the lock pin incorrectly a few times it should ask you to login with your gmail password, which should then unlock the device allowing you to change the lock pin.
Failing that there are methods involving adb, do a search on google as I think some people have unlocked it using adb.
Hello every Pros, and newbies like me,

I was trying to bypass pattern unlock screen (successfully done) on my phone (huawei g525), BUT KNOW my Friend's phone (huawei g510) came with a "so many wrong PATTERN attempted" and asking for Gmail to unlock the phone.
now here is the problem:
I have reseted the pattern (successfully)
There is no Gmail details
The phone is locked with "Too Many Pattern Attempts"
so I can unlock the device with any pattern I like!
its can be done when remember forgotten pattern.

Im not looking to unlock device with GMAIL,

Hello Gentlemen and Gentlewomen,
Well, I have a ZE554KL, with OREO 8.1 installed.
The phone is boot loader unlocked.
I use the fingerprint + pattern lock.
I know it is my fault, but I got the phone running for 2 months w/o rebooting, so all of suden, today the phone locks itself and ask for the pattern lock for "additional security". Well, after 2 months not using the pattern, just the fingerprint, I ended up forgetting it.
Now I am stuck. I cannot reset the unlock method neither via the phone nor the google device page. Is there anyway to remove the pattern lock or switch back to the fingerprint, without the need of wiping my data?
All the best.
Like the title says, my father just passed and we're locked out of his phone.
Don't want to factory reset the phone because all of his accounts are on there in apps and we're not able to figure out if we missed anything. Worried about upcoming bills and then any stocks or trades he did only in apps.
Currently the phone is requiring a pattern unlock and I've unsuccessfully been able to guess it so it kind of locked us out of doing anything. Can't even power off or reset it.
It's also saying "unlock the phone to use fingerprints." Does that mean even if we were to somehow guess the pattern would we still need the fingerprint to open the phone?
Is there a way we can bypass any of this? I looked into some programs and downloaded them but they all said they would erase the data if we removed the pattern unlock.
I have access to his Gmail via a tablet that we knew the pin code for but haven't been able to reset the password just yet. Not sure if having the google account password available will help us unlock the phone or not?
Any help or links to tutorials would greatly be appreciated.
By sheer luck I was able to guess the swipe unlock pattern so the phone is now unlocked for me. Mods can delete this thread if they want.
Hi all, got a very stupid problem here. Tried to remove pattern lock from a RMX2001, afterwards the phone locked up and had to be rebooted. Now it's still asking for a pattern unlock, but not accepting the original pattern. The pattern is correct as I have another phone with the same pattern.
Doesn't matter how many times you enter a pattern, there's no prompt to say you've tried too many times and are locked out.
Any way to fix this without wiping the phone?
