Same happened with me too..
I was on ICS that time.
And guess what it didnt unlock even when i entered my correct user id and password.(i was connected to wifi)
Had to do a factory reset via recovery to unlock it..

Update: :what: Just read in your DUPLICATE thread in another forum you've forgotten your gmail pass too... you can reset your phone back to factory settings using recovery (obviously this will delete everything ON the phone) enter recovery mode > Power button & Volume + & Home button... then select factory reset

Since you have forgotten both pattern and your Google account details then only way is you have restore your phone to factory settings that means all your apps,contacts and setting will go only SD Card will be safe.
1.Switch off your phone.
2.Keep holding the power button and home button together.
3.It will go to recovery mode.
4.Then search for factory reset or something like that.
5.Use Volume Keys to navigate and Home button to select.
5.Select that factory reset thing and then wait for some time it will format.
6.Restart your phone.
7.Your phone is back
I Hope this was useful for you

You'll lose all your data when you reset, so you should back up first.
Obviously you can't back everything up since you're locked out of your phone, but if you connect it to your PC via Samsung Kies you can at least back up your contacts without unlocking the phone.

while the phone is booting up
Remove the sdcard
Go to adb and type
Code:
adb pull /
It will backup all the things on your phone
Not sure, but what these guys said that factory reset is the only way isn't completely true I think... There's a way of bypassing the security lock and removing it completely, as long as you have root:

Hey XDA, you did informed me and help me a lot when I would search for a solution and find it on your forums. But now I had to make account in order to find solution for particular one here (I suppose this is a correct topic, please move if I'm wrong):
I forgot to change a really bad pattern password back to regular slide lock, and I didn't know the combination. After trying few times most combinations that I ha din my head, it suddenly asked me a google account in order to unlock it. Well, I know it, I type it and as soon as I press "sign in", a message flashes that it is loading something (just for a split second) and..... nothing. Still there, at same lock screen. I tried those without @gmail.com and null password but nothing worked, none of combinations. I read somewhere that other solution is wipe data or factory reset. Well, I'm okay with that, but how do I enter recovery mode or boot menu where I can access that?? I don't have USB debugging on, I'm sure of that, and my tablet isn't rooted (it was rooted before, but it went on service once for data wiping and it came back un-rooted I suppose)
I don't have hard reset button, but I do have physical back button on side of tablet that I can click, but I never use it. I tried with holding power button and volume up. When it shows me that image of opened android with red triangle warning sign. I release power button and now I'm stuck with that image on my screen, not knowing what to do! I can press power + volume up again to turn off tablet. Power + volume down activates safe mode and turns on tablet, atleast I discovered that feature...
If you know how to get pass that lock screen that asks for google account, anything how to wipe data with locked out tablet I would be very pleased to hear it (technically see it on here). My tablet is still in its case, locked out, and turned off for now.
Note: If I manage to get to pattern lock screen again somehow, that will also work for me. I'm sure I know correct pattern.

If you enter your pattern incorrectly 5 times a box will come up saying forgot pattern. Press it and it will let you enter your Google account details and let you change your pattern.
Hi there XDA community,
I am turning to you with a specific question that I have regarding the issue with my Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 from 2/2017.
I had an accident where the phone fell on the side directly on the Volume Down button and it was constantly pressed in. I used to have issues with waking up my screen as it would automatically switch off if I didn't press the Volume Up and Back buttons simultaneously. Otherwise the phone is still in full working condition and I managed to unstuck the Volume Down button since.
When I ended one phone call, the black screen wouldn't turn on no matter what, so I got frustrated and played with the buttons and entered the Fastboot mode. I didn't do anything there so I just left and turned the device back on normally.
I was prompted to enter my password, which is always the same 4 charachter all-numbers code and it wouldn't get recognized by the phone no matter what. I am sure I typed it in correctly.
Ever since, I have been locked out of the phone and am looking for options to gain access to it.
The Android Device Manager is of no help, I do not have any Forget Password buttons, my bootloader is locked as far as I know because I didn't change anything there and the USB debugging is disabled.
Do I stand any chance of accessing my data without losing it, perhaps with use of some special software tool or passcode remover?
I don't know exactly what my firmware is, but it probably is MIUI 8 or 7.
Thank you very much for your help and advice!
Wish you to end 2017 being your bestself possible!
Odinlo
Did you tried this ?
http://en.miui.com/thread-292962-1-1.html
Hey,
the Android Device Manager is of no use because the phone is too new to change the password.
Also the recovery mode is inaccessible because the bootloader is locked any my USB debugging is not enabled.
Can you help yourself with the Fastboot mode in any way?
Also, I don't understand why something like this would happen and what is the password now that the device demands.
Do you know of any software tool that would recover all the data after restoring the phone and deleting all the data?
Thank you very much!

Hi Teddy Lo,.
thanks for help, I really appreciate it. It is the Lock screen password on the device
Hi experts,
Trying to keep my kids from using my own tablet, I recently changed the screen lock and forgot the new pattern afterwards
I have the credentials of 2 google accounts opened on the tablet and my fingerprint is already enrolled on the device, I thought I could live with the finger print but discovered that I must enter the screen lock once every two days !
Now the device is locked, and it doesn't give the option of "forgot your pattern" or reset using your google account.
I'm trying to poweroff the device to restart in recovery mode, but even the poweroff function requires the screenlock pattern. I had to let it till battery is empty to poweroff, and yet I can't start it in recovery mode (power + volume up)
The WiFi is ON on the device, and it's connected to Internet, but though Google android device manager can't locate or connect to it !
My 2 Questions are:
1- How can I unlock the device with my google account or fingerprint ?
2- If the above is not possible, I need the photos and videos on the device :crying:, is there anyway I can unlock the device without needing to wipe out the data and reset it to factory ?
Please help & Thanks in advance.

I believe fingerprints and passcodes are stored locally on the device. They wouldn't have anything to do with Google. Hook it to a computer and see if you can save your files cause it's probably going to take a factory reset to get rid of that. If you can't access the tablet to do a factory reset that way you will probably need to use Odin to return it to stock and start over from there.

Can you access TWRP? May not function on the S5e, but on another device it works to use Advanced - File Manager, navigate to /data/system and then delete the locksetting.db file. This effectively removes the lock settings on reboot. Good luck

Might be a little drastic, but you can follow the instructions for unlocking the bootloader. That will cause a factory reset. You will probably need to let the battery run down. Then, plug the USB cable into a PC and NOT the tablet. Press and hold both vol up and down and then plug the USB into the tablet. This should get you into the unlock screen. It will also get you into the download mode to use Odin.

If he can't get into the tablet at all he's not able to tick the oem unlocking toggle in Dev settings. Don't you have to do that in order to unlock bootloader?

If you let the battery run down and then use the method I gave, you CAN get to the unlock mode. And, no, you don't have to enable OEM or Dev mode to unlock the bootloader and reset the tablet. But after doing it, you will need the google login info, which the OP claims to have.

The device did not has TWRP installed before. and it's not rooted, it is with the stock ROM
Can I install TWRP from Recovery mode while the tab is locked ?
and if that's possible, is there any pitfalls or tricks that I should be aware of when installing & using TWRP ?
I went through searching and reading about how to do it, and got questions
- choosing the TWRP version to download, should I pick twrp.me/samsung/samsunggalaxytabs5elte.html or twrp.me/samsung/samsunggalaxytabs5ewifi.html ?
- I read that the only way to install TWRP without rooting, is through Odin which I never used. but what I read in
getdroidtips.com/twrp-recovery-galaxy-tab-s5e/,
getdroidtips.com/flash-twrp-recovery-samsung-phone/ &
getdroidtips.com/how-to-unlock-bootloader-on-samsung-galaxy-phones/
mentions that the device data will be wiped in the process. Is there anyway that does not involve wiping the data ?
Thank you for your support
