Is your bootloader unlocked?
No, it's original

I think you're screwed then. You could try using eRecovery, I've heard of people restoring this way and all their data on the phone wasn't wiped (as long as you don't choose the factory reset option) but I don't know if this will clear the password settings or it would remain after eRecovery.
Are your photos not backed up with Google photos/Huawei gallery backup?
Hi,
it's possible with secret codes access to phone and save data?
With this code *#*#2846579#*#* Project menù it's possible to use HiSuite to backup data?
And wipe all data and all the photos he/she wants to get hold on. That's NOT what he/she want to do.
What usb mode is it in, can you connect to PC to copy the photos off, then factory reset?

Ha, dont think you can get around this otherwise the whole point of a lock screen is useless so i think you need to do a full wipe
Like others said, you gota do factory reset to be able to remove lock screen. There is no bypass since of security safety to prevent hackers and anyone who steals the phone from accessing the content. If you made a Huawei account, then check https://cloud.huawei.com and login with the same email. Hopefully the images and videos are synced there so you can restore it after factory reset.
tried asking your daughter for the lock pattern?

I know my screen unlock pattern, but my brother got it wrong twenty times and now i need to put in my google account details to unlock it. But, the thing is, neither mobile data nor wifi is on, so the phone can't access the internet and as i am locked out, i can't turn them on, Is there any solution apart from factory resetting the phone? Need a solution

Don't worry, just enter your Google account details anyway. Your phone has them saved somewhere in /data, so you don't need any internet in this case .

I just tried and it took only a second to check and unlock my phone. Could you try again but now make sure the phone stays awake by pressing the volume/menu button(s)?

Just factory reset your phone with SUS, PC Companion or Flashtool.

how do I do that? I'm locked out.
Just install Sony Update Service and follow the on screen instructions.
Call me daft but I was under the impression there was a back up security screen, in the sense you enter your password wrong so many times and it pops up, or is that just on face recognition?

There is a backup, asking for a password if you enter the pattern wrong. You can't even change the pattern without this pin? Something's wrong here.

Give me ten minutes. I'll mess around with mine and see if you can get around the pattern in any way.
Ps I've just cracked my screen, so the phones getting binned anyway.

Sorted mate. Just keep blasting the wrong code at the screen. Enter it wrong a few times and it will lock you out for 30 seconds after a warning message saying you've entered your password wrong. Now you will notice a button at the bottom of the screen saying 'forgotten password?' click it. It will let you enter your email address and password used for your Google play account. Provided you know it you will unlock the phone and it will jump to the lock screen settings to disable the lock screen.
Good luck.

ok heres the trick i have a z2 also, im loked out by password if u have aces to many users as u can use it to spam the acces on the main user soft reset as manay times, 1st is the main user pops up, click to change 2nd user go to settings of users click owner user again and again back to 2nd user then to owner user, until u have the chance to access ur user owner, i tried this and it worked, after you acess the user phone u have to do as much as possible you can, got to google play account if you remember or dont make another thats ur passage way to phone administrators, once u created the acount in google play, go to device administrator check ANDROID DEVICE MANAGER, PROTECTION BY XPERIA & CONFIGURATION AGENT i would prefer to first use the android device manager more useful for this kind of situation, okay you have now the account on new or old google play account, go to the computer or laptop type android device manager on google it shows sign in sign up, sign in the account type aagin android device manager now the map is shown and ur phone location and other it says ring / lock / ERASE ALL DATA first ur phone must be connected to a wifi then click ERASE ALL DATA then its processing factory reset

I bought a new G6 (unlocked) for my sister, who lives in another state. She activated the new phone last night (Mint Mobile). When she got to the screen asking for entry of a password to protect against unauthorized use she entered a complex password (she didn't know she could just skip that screen). She wrote the password down, but now she can't find it. I called her this morning and she was able to use the fingerprint scanner to open the phone enough to answer my call, but she can't get to her apps.
I am aware that this sounds a little "fishy", but I didn't know where else to turn. Is there any way to reset or remove that password? Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks, Jerry

She can boot to recovery and reset the whole phone, the only option if bootloader is locked.
Got to wipe the phone and start over. tell her to make sure next time it's a simple password because she's going to have to use it every time to unlock the device if she has a screen lock set to password. even if it's set to fingerprint you have to enter the password anytime you reboot the device to unlock it the first time.
It's there to prevent unauthorized use so no there's no way around it. Except for factory resetting. even then make sure she logs in with the same Google account because she probably enabled factory reset protection as well.

Thanks for the suggestions. I walked her through the factory reset procedure, but when she tried to set up the phone and entered her Google credentials the phone said "searching" and wouldn't go past that screen. She finally called Motorola and they said if I could send proof of purchase she could forward it to them and, if approved, they will ask her to send them the phone and they will send her another new phone. She is still waiting,

That's a bummer. They should send another one though. It's covered since you didn't unlock the bootloader.
Hi All,
This is probably the most stupid thing that i have done yet. I demonstarted to my son how to change the unlock-pattern on my phone, and forgot to put back my old pattern. Now the phone asks to verify my pattern even if i am normally using my fingerprints.
Now i wonder what i could do to unlock my phone. Can't use ADB, because i need to authenticate it forst from the phone.
What would happen if i re-installed the stock firmware again? Would that reset my pattern? Any ideas are welcome
Wow.. I figured out my pattern, so no need to reset my phone Next time i will write down my new pattern and save it in my keepass-passwordmanager (that again syncs the db-file to dropbox
omg.
my friend just seen my pattern when i unlocked my phone so i decided to change my pattern (it had been a real long time since i changed it anyway) so i did it.
i cant remember what i changed it to.
i actually changed it 2x but the first pattern i thought was too easy so i changed it again.
i didnt make it any harder as in more dots to complete the pattern but hard enough i dont remember it.
im on a s21 ultra of course.
is there a limit on how many failed attempts i can do?
so far i think im under 10 but it does make me wait 30secs alot.
if there is an unlimited amount i think i will guess it but if there is a finite i dont want to mess it up and do a factory reset or erase.
i have alot of my grandbabies pics and videos on there.
if there is a way to bypass it please tell me.
i know my google acct on computer etc... thats not a problem and that is the same acct on my phone.

i not sure. i think i might have but i think i deleted it but it keeps asking me to same my passwords to samsung and i keep hitting never.
unless you have an unlocked bootloader I don't know that there's anything that can be done. I would just get them all wrong at this point and see if it let's you reset it with a good account. If you BL is unlocked you could boot into a custom recovery and wipe the security file.

Can only be done if you have find my device enabled and have an active internet connection in the phone tho
Step 1. Open the internet browser on your notebook and input the following website
address: https://findmymobile.samsung.com, click on the Sign in button and input your login credentials of your Samsung account, then click on Sign in button once more.

Step 2. The mobile device registered under your Samsung account will appear on the right-side of the screen. If you have multiple devices registered under the same Samsung account, make sure you select the device that needs to be remotely unlocked. Refer to the image below and click on the Unlock icon to unlock your device.
image after login to find my mobile web page
Step 3. Once you click on Unlock, a pop-up window will appear asking to verify the password of your Samsung account. After you input your password, click on the NEXT button, the pop-up window will automatically close and another pop-up window will appear with the result of remotely unlocking your device

Well, at this point you probably need to reset the phone, as you didn't link your Samsung account.
There actually isn't any way to recover the data Unless you can guess the pattern again.
I don't know if Samsung themselves would unlock the phone if you took it to the support center providing proof that you own the phone, but that could get your data back idk
In my opinion it is worth a try in this case

Probably 3 then a waiting time, but it's probably more easier to take it to Samsung and get them to unlock it for you, since you own the phone they can do it.

Samsung can't unlock it... pretty sure.
Once you set a lock screen the security is very good, too good. Sleep on it to see if the pattern comes to you... you still remember it.
That failing, suck it up. It may have not been your fault at all, see below.
I never set a screen lock, 2x tap on/off.
Never set a a bios password.
And most importantly never encrypt data backup hdds, etc.
You are the one most likely to get locked out... lesson learned the hard way.
A firmware failure, or external forces beyond your control (high energy particles of cosmic origin can do it*) can put you in a no win situation once you set an eccess password. While if you hadn't you likely wouldn't be locked out. I had a laptop bios lock me out, the password was simple a simple "S" even years latter I remember it... but the bios doesn't!
*this isn't a joke. Flying or being at higher elevations increases the risk. While it is slight when under the protection of the ionosphere it's still a random failure factor. One high energy particle can change the value of a flash memory cell without damaging it. The data however is corrupted unless redundantly backup which is one reason why spacecraft use at least 3 redundant computers.

Even if u hard reset, u will be asked to input your Samsung account and password, anf even with out knowing the pattern you have the option of putting in your PIN.
If you don't know your own PIN code then, something Is wrong!
