I was trying the swiping pattern lock today and somehow the pattern i recorded earlier was not recognise by my phone. After a few attempts my phone lock itself up and only ask to sign in to my google account. I entered my google details and even that was also denied by my phone. So far i have tried rebooting, factory reset, pull the batt out and all of em still do not unlock my phone, it still ask me to log in to my google account. pls help me!
did happen to me once on a xperia x10, simply flash your firmware, and it should do the trick. thats what I did.

Here is the thing. My friend gave me her G1 because her sister locked the phone trying too many times the password (the 3x3 balls thing) and now she cant use the phone. She dosnt know the details of the gmail account because it was from someone, and she cant contact it anymore.
The detail here is that the phone is unrooted, because if it were rooted, all i would need to do is flash a new rom, but since its unrooted, things get a little bit more complex...anyone knows how to unlock the phone?

all you can do is factory reset. otherwise somebody could steal your g1 and unlock it like that.
There is a way by deleting the unlock code file, google for it.
my phone is locked and im not sure what i can do. i forgot my pattern and when i tried to put in my password it says it was wrong. i got to change my password on google but it still wont let me in with the new password. any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
If you had enabled usb debugging, then you can remove the pattern lock using ADB. If you hadn't enabled usb debugging then the only option is the forgot my password, which will email the pattern to you.
Like you said it is not working for you, the extreme method would be to perform a factory reset. You will lose all the data in the phone (not sd card). Use factory reset as last resort only..
thats the problem i can no longer get to any pattern lock. it wont let me. and its not accepting my gmail and password for some reason. im not sure if i can do anything.
unlock bootloader and flash sense rom over without wipe
Hey guys,
last weekend my Huawai P9 battery got empty over the night and on the next morning after charging i noticed that the phone ask me for a password. Before i just used my finger sensor to get back into it but as you know after a complete restart it ask for the set password.
The problem is that i do not remember it in any way and right now i am @ 1 hour waiting time between the attempts.
I really don't want to delete and reset the phone and loose all my data. So i hope someone can help me to solve that problem to get back access to my phone without loosing all data.
Phone data:
Name: Huawai P9
Model: EVA-L09
Latest official available Android update installed.
No Root, No Modification
What i have tried so far:
1. Google Android Manager
I logged into my google account and tried to reset the password but google tells me it cant replace the password because its already active. So looks like that reset way only works for pin and gesture phones but not for ones that already have an active password.
2. dr.Phone
I have downloaded dr.phone toolkit for android and tried the unlock locked screen option but it tells me that the phone is not supported.
3. ADB / Fastboot
I installed ADB and fastboot on my system and tried to connect the phone to delete the password.key file. ADB is running on my windows but it does not get any connection to the phone because the phone has no developer option enabled and i am not able to enable it because it cant access it.
Fastboot does detect my phone but yea i cant delete a file with it right?
Greetings,
Chris

-I could only imagine that you are able to unlock your bootloader with DC Phoenix (normal bootloader unlock would cause data loss and u would need DC Phoenix for the oem lock)
-Maybe u are able to flash TWRP recovery with DC Phoenix and backup your files from there but i dont know if TWRP works without an unlocked bootloader.
-All in all DC Phoenix is a risky tool.

Stop stop stop.....
Is your phone under warranty? If it is, dont touch the bootloader or flash anything. Send it back to Huawei to fix it.
If its no longer under warranty, is it requesting a password to unlock your phone or is it the password for decrypt storage? And last question, do you use the finger print scanner to unlock your phone?
only solution with bootloader locked is the wipe data/factory reset inside erecovery
Hi Guys,
I think I have no lucky these days...
I was testing a new ROM and when a returned the backup with TWRP android asked me a patteren for unlock.
The patter I usauly use dont work.
I found a help that say to erase some files in /data/system but it doenst work...
I had a idea to block the cell with my google account and set a new PIN for unnlock... It doenst work
Now I have the cell blocked by google and its impossible to access the internal memory with TWRP...
I need help... I dont know what to do...
Please !!!!
Sounds like your only way back is to format/delete all your data and start from scratch. You can use fastboot to do this.
I think this is the way... but I never did this before...
Do you know a step by step to do this !?
If I understand rightly you have a Google locked phone. I have not tried this on the OP3T but if you are able to reach the boot up screen where Google asks you for the password/pattern lock, you can try inserting an OTG drive of any capacity into your device. The phone will ask for changing storage. After clicking 'OK' you will be taken to the storage section. Go to 'Apps' and from there to 'Setting'. If you are able to reach this far, do a complete reset from that 'Settings' section and you would be able to recover your phone. I repeat, I have not tried this on the OP3T but have successfully tried this on some other phones. Best of luck and hope you get back your toy.
Let me also add that you won't be able to recover a Google blocked phone by factory resetting from recovery. The only way to do this is to reset it from the settings section of the OS itself after you have booted up.

Hello,
I've bought a Mi 5 to my son and he changed the lock screen pin code and subsequently fogot it. Now, without being able to get passed screen lock login, without a recovery, how do I factory reset the phone?
I'm unsuccessful in unlocking the bootloader, the device (Mi 5) is not attached to the account. This attachment is done in the settings which I cannot access because I do not know the pin code.
I've found this article, but no response has been given yet : https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5/help/mi-5-dead-factory-reset-t3379029
How on earth do I reset the phone? Does anyone know how to do this?
Please please please help me out...

PS This is a cross post with this article, Ill update this post with whatever finding I get. http://en.miui.com/thread-1016219-1-1.html
Answering my own question:
Warning, this will erase everything on your phone, it's a factory reset.
Connect to your google account, use Find my phone, choose the device and continue logging in. Choose Consider erasing your device, then click Yes.
This will erase everything on the phone and will enable you to access the phone again after reinstalling.
