So I wanted to try out the lockscreen password method, so I did.
But now I just regret doing it, not even after 1 minute, it doesn't accept my password I set up, which is just weird and odd. Is there some kind of recovery password app or anything just to unlock my phone again. I'm out of ideas.
EDIT: Nvm, I just wiped my user data, and re-flashed darky 10.2.2 all is fine now.

So I decided to switch from Continuum to Cog5v2, and when I flashed the Odin One-Click for stock Gingerbread, it rebooted and is now asking me for a password. Full admission, I did accidentally brainfart and leave the sim card in the first time, but I've re-flashed since then, and it's still asking me! I've tried all my passwords, and generic ones like "samfirmware.com," or "0000," and I'm still locked out of my phone. Has anyone else run into this? I'm utterly lost on what to do now.
Like this Bypassing Android's Password Screen
I know this uses the gesture lock but there has to be a file that has a password. Or maybe this will work for you. Good Luck!
*psst,psst* (see sig)
I don't think it's that kind password issue. I flashed back to 2.1, then back to 2.3, and it still prompting me for a password. I don't even have recovery, so I can't do any of that.

Try flashing back to 2.1, without the sim and an external sd in the phone. When at 2.1, do a master clear on the internal card. THIS WILL ERASE ALL FILES ON YOUR INTERNAL CARD. Then flash to what ever room you want, without sim/sd card in phone.
Master clear from one-click?
did u have a pin unlock from before? i forgot to disable my pin unlock before i flashed and all i had to do was use my pin number from before to continue flashing

Yes. But it will wipe your internal card, just so you know. There may be s way to pull everything from your internal sd with adb, but I am not too familiar with adb.
Did a master clear, then flashed straight from 2.1 to 2.3, and it's still prompting me for a password. I didn't have a PIN so far as I am aware.
Try rebooting, with out anything in the phone. I remember this happening to someone and his problem was fixed on the 2nd boot after reflashing everything

Check my sig and get my 2.3.3 kf1 atomicfusion odin 1.0
After Odin you will see a android with a triangle. Simply pull battery and replace. You will boot into recovery. From there select factory reset.
Then simply reboot into my rom or flash rom of choice. If your going to go cog5v2 you will have to flash 2x. 1st time hang on Att screen. Just pull battery again three button recovery and flash again and cog will boot.

Hello Everyone,
I just seriously dont know how it happened, but my mobile fails to recognize my Pin. Initially I had set up the pin lock and my pin code was 1234
Later i wiped the dalvik cache, and the battery stats, and after I rebooted it fails to recognize my pin password. So is there a way to bypass it....my phone is running on GingerDX v26 stock kernel. I will be seriously grateful if someone has a solution. Thanxx in advance

Officially corp via w8

Hi,
I'm trying to flash my gf's phone and while flashing
GT_I9000_XXJVK_XXJVK_OXAJVK via Odin (pit,pda,phone,csc)
at the first boot I'm getting a "Enter your password" thingy.
Must be some sort of a PIN? She claims her phone isn't pin protected (or atleast that she can't recall doing so ).
I've flashed the exact same thing yesterday to another phone and it worked perfectly.
Any help would be appreciated
SOLVED. Entering wrong combination multiple times wipes everything
Thanks
So.. first of all, I want to say that I am a complete no0b when it comes to bootloader unlocking/rooting/etc... just putting that out there..
So I just unlocked the bootloader on my m7, and everything went fine, until I actually turned on my phone again...
The first thing that shows up is a screen that tells me to enter my password to decrypt my device, even though I have never encrypted it.
Any password entered results in a screen saying:
Decryption unsuccessful
The password you entered is correct, but unfortunately your data is corrupt.
To resume using your phone, you need to perform a factory reset. When you set up your phone after the reset, you'll have an opportunity to restore any data that was backed to your google account.
I have tried to factory reset my phone in recovery mode, however it just returns an error message saying that it cant mount /data, and only formats /cache.
When I restart, I get the same 'Decrypt Storage' screen as before...
Is there ANY way I can solve this?
I have absolutely no clue :/
As I said, i'm just a noob
I dont care about any lost data, I just want a usable phone :/
I think I just solved it!
Installed twrp, formatted, rebooted, and everything is chill!
Glad I solved that...
how did you do it

My 4-digit password works just fine during normal use. But after upgrading to oxygenOS 5.0.1 (OTA) , I decided I wanted to revert back to nougat. So I load my backup in twrp and reboot, and it asks for my password rather than fingerprint to unlock screen because of reboot. And that's when my password is not recognized.
This is the only password Ive ever used for my phone so its definitely the right one. I can also see notifications and accept calls, it just won't unlock the screen. I also tried the default code for my simcard but even removing it doesnt make a difference.
Next, I restore my backup for 5.0.1. that I made prior to restoring nougat, and the same thing happens, password doesn't work. I had to do a factory reset to get my phone working again.
Still determined to get good old android 7 back, I install the original recovery as to upgrade from the oneplus website. And upon booting to recovery my password is once again not recognized.
I'm now back on twrp and have no problems with my passcode. But I think this is strange so maybe someone here has an idea about what's going on.
If you're restoring a backup, you have to remove gatekeeper.pattern (or password).key and locksettings.db, once removed it will work
I moved those files from data/system to data and it worked. Thank you very much!
I noticed this also removes the lock if you set it from another computer using the 'my devices' section of your google account. But it does not remove the lock notification, to do that you simply have to set a new password from your phone.
And that's how easy it is to "hack" an Android phone. Pretty sure you can do this using adb from the stock recovery. Maybe I will try it one day.

AFAIK stock recovery allows only sideloading via adb

Not sure about Oneplus, but we have a Prestigio tablet here and I managed to delete an entire partition from the stock recovery. Wipe data didn't help a bootloop so I actually wiped it for good.
I hope other manufacturers aren't that foolish, but I'm not sure they know better.
