Nowadays many android phone users use the
inbuilt “pattern locks” as a security to their
phones. But the main problem with it is that, if
you forget the pattern you used and you try out
many wrong attempts, it gets locked permanently.
So, just follow these simple steps to unlock
pattern locks on your android device and use it
again free of cost.
Steps to be followed :
Unlock using Google Account :
If you don’t have data connection or internet
access or if you don’t have your google account
linked to your phone, then, you can skip this step
and refer the Additional TRICK.
When you try different patterns and unable to
unlock your phone in five attempts. Then a
message pop-up and shows two buttons “next”
and “try again”. Now click on “next” button and
you see two options for unlocking phone. One is
answer the security question and the second
option is to provide Google account details.
Mostly people don’t set a security question. But
if you set it then simply answer the question and
unlock your device quickly. Otherwise check the
Google account option and click “next”.Now
provide your Google account username and
password attached with your device and click on
“sign in”. After that you are directed to choose
new pattern and now you can unlock with this
pattern.
Additional TRICK:
NOTE:
This method deletes all your data and apps.
The following steps are intended for both rooted
and non-rooted android devices. For rooted
phones, patterns can be unlocked even without
factory reset which we will be updating later on
after thorough verifications.
1) Switch off the phone.
2) Now hold these buttons all together at the
same time
“Volume up + Home Key + Power Button”
until the phone boots (if you device doesn’t have
a home button just hold together volume up key
and power key)
3) Now a screen like DOS will come up with
different options
4) Use the volume key to move up and down then
scroll down to “Restore Factory Defaults” or
“Delete all User Data” depending on which is on
your device. Select this factory reset option and
then press power button to let the action begin.
Now it asks you for confirmation, select “yes”.
5) After clicking on the settings above, now scroll
down to “Reboot System Now” and wait for your
phone to reboot (restart).
Now your phone will reboot and all lock patterns
have been removed and your device will now in its
default settings.
