[Q] Requesting a little assistance!

Okay, so first of all, thanks to all who take the time to actually look at this thread.
The Problem
Okay, so, my little brother has the Galaxy Mini, he set a lock on it (you know the one where you drag your finger to the points on the screen? the 3 x 3 block of circles?) Well, anyway, he forgot his password and has now had his phone "system locked". Anyway, there is an option to sign into his google account on screen though and that would solve the problem, but guess what? Yep, you got it! The little cretin has forgotten his email and password. I tried mine but that didn't work, so I guess it has to be his own.
My question is this: What if anything, can I do to solve this problem?
Any help at all will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the help but I tried holidng Volume Up + Home + Power also tried Volume Down + Home + Power and both the screens that came up done nothing at all, am I doing it wrong? One of the screens just had a little Android man with the word "Downloading" on it and another just a black screen with Samsung and something else above it. No options to do anything.

TRY THIS:
take out the SGM battery and put it in back
now you can go in recovery by hold down POWER AND HOME BUTTON and wipe DATA
hope it HELP
If i helped you be sure to click
that THANKS button

Thank you to the both of you, got the phone reset

which rom u use?
stock?

Complete Brick?

Guys if you are in a complete brick of your phone there's a trick. If you hold the volume down and power button, then right when the logo comes up you just let go of the power and press it again quickly it will try to do a factory reset. I was able to get into TWRP thanks to that and install CM. Just a heads up.

Do you really know what 'complete brick' is?

Well you can't get into a recovery because there is no button configuration so in the case of installing a bad rom and being in a boot loop without USB Debugging, you are basically in a complete brick.

I'd say a complete brick is when your phone doesn't turn on in any case and you can't even do a factory reset with hardware buttons. Anything up to that is a soft brick imho. In such an event your suggested 'trick' wouldn't really do anything.

Yes you can get to recovery with key combos. See the link in my last post. View Q14 in that threads OP.

Thanks in advance

It's strange. VOL-DOWN + HOME + POWER combination should brings Ace to download mode, and VOL-UP+ HOME + POWER combination brings Ace to ramdump screen.
For flashing stock ROM purpose, Mobile Odin may help.

No dude, his phone is stuck in ramdump mode, so he can't boot to system.
He should use the PC version of Odin.

why you do not download other custom rom & trying to flash via recovery/cwm?

Yes, I can enter Recovery Mode. In fact, I was thinking about this, but I have no idea what custom ROM I should install.
Could any of you recommend me the easiest one to install?
Please, consider that my PC is very outdated, so I hope I don't have to install any software or download any heavy file.
I just want to go back to the stock firmware after I flash the custom one, so I don't care what feature the custom rom has.
Thank you all for your answers

[Q] Stuck at boot splash screen and will not reboot into recovery

Hello all,
I haven't touched my M7 in about 6 months but I figure it's time I try to fix it. Here are the following symptoms of my problem: it won't boot past the splash screen, it won't boot into recovery, and it doesn't like powering up unless it's plugged into a wall socket.
Is there any way I can RUU this or force it into fastboot or recovery?

press vol down + power button to enter bootloader and then choose fastboot

Sorry should have specified that I already tried that.

Is it unlocked or not? Does it have stock or custom recovery?

Where does power + vol down get you? Bootloader menu or bootloop again?

Did you try holding the power button for few seconds till capacitive buttons start flashing? After they stop keep holding the power button and press vol down. That should take you to bootloader menu

Sorry, seems I left out quite a bit. Was up late messing with it to see if I could get anything done and it was probably due to lack of sleep.
I believe it was after I had tried to RUU. Unforunately I don't remember with which .zip file, but I'm going to assume I didn't screw that up as I've had to RUU quite a few times and hadn't messed that up just yet.

I fail to understand it too. Would be an easy fix if I could get it into fastboot.

Serious problems after flashing TWRP

Hi all,
Flashed TWRP on my phone with adb. After successfull flash, restarted phone with power + vol up. Phone enters TWRP,
but there all fun stops, can't do anything there. It looks like it want's me to enter a password or something, but keyboard not working.
And on top of that, can't enter fastboot again, if holding power + vol down, all I get is restarts after "Redmi" text, nothing else.
Is there any way to get this phone to work, or is it only to throw it in the trash?
Best regards

Hi,
No, can't do anything, what ever I do it boot's into TWRP.
Think I tried all I can, so I guess this phone sadly is on it's way to the trashcan.
