Due to some personal issues, I was not using my phone since the past 6 months. Now when I started it back, I am not able to enter the proper screen lock(Pattern) and I never ever made an account on myXperia. I tried many ways which included google find my device but find my device is not allowing me to change screen lock, it just allows to make sound and "Lock and erase" option which basically does nothing.
I actually need my data intact and after a little search on internet, I came to know that i need to unlock my bootloader and then flash a recovery and remove the screen lock file but unlocking bootloader will result in factory reset and hence my data will be lost.
By default the phone doesn't allow usb debugging when connected to pc, if some how I am able to allow usb debugging then I can recover my data.
Please help guys.

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
Hi all,
Greetings first as this is my first post on XDA and appreciate all you guys contribution all the way through here. Back to the topic I got my X9 using in good condition unless of low remaining space yet some weeks ago during my normal use the machine suddenly froze and reboot and after that though I am able to unlock on the first boot screen, by using the same unlock pattern I cannot enter my desktop and it always tell the pattern is incorrect. Yet no matter how many trial I did it didn't force me to exponential-time-wait. I googled for some time and learnt that the same problem happened on samsung S7 and some nexus device (those HTC made ones?) So at this point I am wondering if:
- there is any chance I can unlock my phone without data loss? i tried "find your phone" on ADM yet over-riding lock screen seems no longer work;
- The machine is clean as-is from the factory without any s-on/off or unlock of bootloader; under current circumstance am I still able to install TWRP and get a back up being dumped? (seems I can dump a copy and use the pc script to look into the gesture-key, or simply delete the gesture.key from TWRP / aroma manager);
- Any other alternatives I can do? I really want to keep the data inside as there were some precious photo as well as some chat-record that is not being backup to the g-drive;
thanks in advance =)
I tried to unlock my phone with a fingerprint And the phone just cannot be
unlocked. It immediately going to the PIN screen, which I don't think I
have.
Tried with Android device manager, but loclisation is desabled
Is there any way I could reset it in other way?
I don't want to do factory reset this will erase all my data and I don't
want that.
please help and thanks
If you want to somehow unlock it, you will need to turn it's internet on (aka Data OR WiFi) and using your Google account, unlock it. It does not need location for that.
If that does not work, sorry but you'll have to factory reset it. Before doing that, try to get your personal data by plugging in a USB to a PC it already trusts. If that will won't work, your data will be unfortunately lost.
Try looking up a tutorial online, maybe they'll know how to hack the phone.
I have a nexus 6 device, recently the phone dropped and the digitilizer stopped working, but as i was searching for ways to backup data the screen went completely blank as well, the data is extremely important.
The phone is working perfectly debugging is off and it has a pin lock, i cant get data off by connecting a USB as it requires to unlock the device which i cant.
Serching the forums some people have mentioned they used WUG's toolkit to unlock bootloader without losing data! is it possible or am i missing something?
example: https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/help/enable-usb-debugging-recovery-t3434971
What i want:
1. Enable adb somehow
2. The only option i see in to flash custom recovery but that requires unlocking bootloader, i cant delete my data.
I also can't find a replacement LCD for this phone where i live suppliers don't ship here

You can't do anything without "USB debugging" so you have to replace the screen.
My A6 smartphone is locked by a password and I don't know the password.
My goal is to unlock the phone without data loss.
Information:
USB debugging is not enabled
Device is not rooted
No Custom Recovery
Samsung FindMyMobile is not enabled
Is it possible to remove the lock screen without factory reset?
Or to at least get the personal data (images, Videos, contacts) from this Device?
Best regards,
