[Q] Backup my contact list from a locked Android phone?

My phone is in following condition and I badly need to backup my contact list. Please share a feasible solution
- it is screen locked and is asking for my google credentials because I have entered incorrect pattern multiple times.
- I don't remember the password of my google account
- I don't have USB debugging enabled
- phone model is HTC Desire C
- the phone is in stock condition, hence no recovery is installed
UPDATE: I have researched the available internet and am close to believing that this is not easily possible. However, I cannot settle on the fact that all my data is still intact and it is just a matter of bypassing the screen lock somehow. I hope someone out there might be curious and resourceful enough to achieve what no one has until now. And to repay his/her time and efforts, I offer to design a fully featured website for him/her and waive off 100% of the labor cost incurred (maximum 7 days).

Unlocking Agreement​
Thank you for your support for Huawei Device’s products. Huawei Device has granted bootloader unlocking permission for its latest mobile phones’ and tablets’ official firmware. Unlocking the bootloader enables you to burn third-party firmware to your device.
However, unlocking the bootloader carries the following risks:
1．Huawei has optimized its products’ hardware and software, but after you unlock the bootloader, Huawei cannot guarantee the best product performance or the normal operation of all functions.
2．Most third-party firmware has not been adequately tested and has poor compatibility with Huawei devices, which will affect your device’s stability or even cause damage to your device’s hardware. For example, the power consumption may become so excessive that your device’s standby time and battery life are reduced, or the RF performance of your device may degrade, which will lead to network search failure or poor call quality. Even worse, your device may fail to start and cannot be repaired. In other words, your device may no longer be usable.
3．The third-party firmware may be vulnerable to malicious software attacks, as a result of which your device’s security cannot be assured. For example, Your personal data such as contacts, messages, and locations may be disclosed. Malicious software may control your device to send messages to subscribe to paid services or make calls in the background, incurring charges secretly. Malicious software may even monitor your device.
4．Some functions will no longer work after you unlock the bootloader. For example, the Digital Right Management (DRM) security password and digital contents you have purchased cannot be used any more. Software upgrade using Firmware Over-The-Air (FOTA) or a microSD card may fail or your device may not function properly after the upgrade.
Unlocking the bootloader will cause unexpected negative impacts on your device, including but are not limited to those listed above. You are at your own risk if the device malfunctions and cannot be recovered. For software and hardware failures, Huawei repair centers can provide and charge for maintenance services.
[ Warnings and precautions ]
1． As determined by your service provider, custom devices may not support bootloader unlocking. If so, contact your service provider to unlock your device’s bootloader.
2．Unlocking the bootloader restores your device to its factory settings and all of your personal data will be erased. Back up your data before unlocking the bootloader.
Before you unlock the bootloader, ensure that you are fully aware of all the risks and that you master the required skills.

Find 'My Xperia' Utility

Hi Everyone ,
I'm new to this whole Sony Xperia thing being a new convert from the iPhone , so forgive me if this sounds a bit odd.
I've just enabled and activated the Find 'My Xperia' utility , that on the face of it is like iPhone's 'Find my phone' , the only difference and correct me if I'm wrong here , whats to stop me turning it off in the settings (assuming i have no pin on the keypad - ok so i'd deserve it if that was the case). But it also seems easy enough to reflash my 'lost' phone with a virgin stock firmware and then thats the find my xperia utility disabled , as it needs to be active on the phone as well as online. IOS stops you doing this by locking the phones repair and activation unless you unlock it with your iTunes account.?
Does this seem a bit of a half hearted effort or am i missing something?
Thanks guys.

I can and have pushed updates to my iPhone when I was playing with that and had the phone locked. Could have been a fluke but still should have never happened. I have also flashed ios firmwares that were no longer signed without SHSH blobs including betas without being a dev.
IMHO, lock your phone and see what it does. I do not use those apps because the iPhone one was wasted on me and if my phone is not in my hands or pocket we probably have larger issues.
You may need to log in with your PSN ID to unlock the device. This would be similar to using an Apple ID to unlock the device.

My Xperia Utility
Hi there,
Thanks for the reply , I tried it out by registering and locking my handle remotely , and as I guessed reflashing with a stock ROM wiped any trace of it and I was unable to trace it.
I'm assuming it's this way as the handset does not need to talk to an authentication server like the iPhone's do prior to activation.
Was interesting to do though.... Bored now.

Yeah, My Xperia and similar solutions are useful, but if a determined and/or technically clued up person steals your device then you almost certainly aren't going to be able to retrieve it that way. They're more of a deterrent to the opportunistic thief than anything.
I have Cerberus and have it set to email me images via the front camera on incorrect unlock attempts. My phone also automatically switches over to a secure lockscreen when away from my home wifi. The power menu also don't display in the lockscreen, so makes it difficult for someone not in the know to power off my phone.
If my phone goes missing for more than an hour and I receive any notification of incorrect unlock attempts, then it's being wiped remotely and a message to call my other line is displayed to return the device. If that fails, then a phone call to my provider to get the phone totally blocked is the next step.

N950f-ds [galaxy note 8 exynos] - rmm state lock

Hello,
I negotiated a Galaxy Note 8 (SM-N950F/DS) through a site of collective purchases in Brazil, with invoice and all the accessories.
I did all the tests in the device and I decided to buy it, because it seemed reliable.
The device already had the factory settings, but with Android 7.1.1.
I activated automatic update in order to upgrade the android to 8.0.
I received the update and installed it. When restarting the phone, I started the settings normally, I was able to configure the Samsung Account, but when I was starting the configuration of the Google account my phone blocked.
After trying several unlock passwords, I made contact with SAMSUNG which instructed me to send the device for local service.
When I arrived at the service it was verified that my device had "transport block" and who is responsible for unlocking the device is the store in which the device was purchased.
I went to the store that was described in the purchase invoice and there informed me that the store does not perform any kind of unlock or block, so I could not solve the problem.
After several discussions with Samsung and the store, it was verified that my invoice was exchanged and that it was possibly not true.
It was from there that I realized that I was deceived by the seller of the device, because when I try to contact him, my calls do not complete and he blocked me in the social networks.
The only information I have about him is his name and the phone number that should have already been discarded.
Anyway, I realized that I would have to try on my own. Because of this, I am doing this post. I apologize for the long text above before passing the technical information, I had to explain what happened, because I do not want to pass as a thief.
After doing several research I found that the lock was being triggered by RLC.apk which is located at "/system/priv-app/Rlc/Rlc.apk" in stock firmwares.
I found an instruction that guided to freeze the performance of this app with application Ice box v3.1.9.1.
I tried the instruction, but it did not work on devices with Binary 4 (which is my case). The device continues to locked.
I talked to some technicians who told me that this is a block known as SEDA_LOG or DNP 0001. There are some companies that unlock remotely, but it does not have support for Binary 4.
With rom COMBINATION I can use some applications installed by adb, even my data network works perfectly.
The IMEI is normal, unlocked, and is out of the blacklist.
Other information is that the RMM State is Lock, FRP ON, OEM LOCK ON.
Also, when the lock screen appears a few times the message "Silent Log is not allowed for commercial version, please get the EM token".
Through the Samsung Account I can make the phone ring and even locate it, but it does not unlock.
Some failed attempts:
- flash a rom from another region (the device region is ZTO, I tried O2U)
- wait 7 days for the RMM State to disappear (not disappeared, continued locked)
- freezing the RLC app
- enter several PINs to try to unlock.
- login with my samsung account on rmm.samsung.com to try to unlock rmm, but I can not access.
If anyone can help me, or can guide me in what to do, I am very grateful.

Well, if you got scammed by some nasty person, strictly talking, the device in your hands was illegaly traded, as such, here in XDA no solution will be given or support offered, sorry, these cases appear often, and the moderators usually close the threads

Locked to Xfinity, IMEI shows unlocked

I bought a device from ebay and shipped abroad (outside US), the IMEI and serial number states that the device is unlocked on Google's website , but when I received the device and inserted SIM it says that the device is locked under Xfinity and I need to contact the customer service to unlock it, contacted the live chat support after lot of tries in different days one of the agents told me that he check the IMEI and the device is not locked, and adviced me to try to call the customer support, after a lot of international calls, couldn't reach to anything cause I don't have account.
There's no return policy
IMEI: 358116101231886
Serial: 0A051JECB14767
Is there anything I can do?

I have a Verizon pixel 4a 5g beginning with IMEI numbers 53 as well, except I bought it new and never paid it off. A few days ago on the latest Android 13 update, I used the app hail to freeze all of my carrier apps, as I typically do this to remove any bloat, and since I couldn't use a SIM in the phone anyway since I stopped paying for it it didn't matter if I affected any apps related to service. It must be specific to the latest update, but I disabled every Verizon branded app and every app with the name carrier on it, but I did not disable or freeze the device setup / work config app because it is responsible for several things, such as the OEM unlock switch which is expected to always be grayed out. Well for some reason, this time and I'm convinced it's related to the latest update.... After freezing those apps, not even rebooting the phone, OEM unlock was suddenly able to be toggled and now I am rooted and using a T-Mobile esim on an unpaid off, Verizon pixel. This is the only advice I can give you, download shizuku and set it up because unless you have root you cannot freeze apps with hail. You have to run it using Shizuku. It can't hurt and it's worth a shot

Thank you, I will give it a try, can you share with me please the list of the apps you froze, if u have it saved.

Sadly It didn't work
