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.

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
So my idiot friend managed to change the lock password on a nokia 625 and forgot it the next morning, now it asks to wait thousands of minutes to try another password.
1 - Is there anyway to unlock it or bypass the lock?
2 - If impossible and have to do a hard reset, since she has some media there that she would like to recover is there any way to do access those files or do a backup of the data somehow? or even undelete the data after a hard reset?
3 - will flashing a new rom delete her documents/pics/vids?
Thanks for any help.
teh only way is to make hard reset.this happen to me on my lumia 535 and it is by hard reset i recover it.
if is connected to a microsoft account that you know you can acces microsoft account from a web pc and then under locate my phone, there is a option for lock+erase.... choose lock and change your pin. Phone must be connected to internet!
Dear All,
I have a friend with Huawei P9 Plus with this Firmware VIE-L29C636B103, i don't know what is in his mind on that time but unfortunately after restarting the phone he forgot his PIN to unlocked the phone and the fingerprint was not working. As far as i know, the only solution is by Factory Reset the phone, but he did not want to loose his data. Is there any way to solve this problem?
Thank You

No still original without custom recovery. Can i use TWRP to backup first the data ?
The problem is that you not unlock and then root yet. You basically can't use TWRP. If unlock bootloader, the phone will be immediately wipe data.

He or you could've used it to delete ". key" -files through adb. But that is only useful to have access to the data. You can't set new fingerprints or delete any of them because he must know his forgotten password for it. So it would only be a temporary solution.
Unlocking the bootloader never erased my data. It couldn't cause of some failure appeared at let's say 30%. But I'm not certain that the failure appears also on his phone. Which leads to my suggested solution:
He should try to remember the password and include any typos(yes, typos. My pin was 85320 but it also happened that i typed two times the false pin. The outcome was 85350. Huawei's layout was kinda bull**** and vulnerable for that type of failures. At least to me.) As I know it must be a PIN, not a password. If that fails get rid of the data and make a factory reset.
Thank you all,
Today i connect the P9 Plus Phone USB to HiSuite in Windows 10, i just leave this around 5 minutes and suddenly it connected to HiSuite automatically. Now i'm still backing up the data pictures, etc. Still wondering why in windows 10 it can connected automatically than in windows 7 After backup finished i'm gonna factory reset the phone.
My mistake on comments on unlocking bootloader will erase date since I mixed up the process. Now I remembered that after unlock, if you proceed further to root the phone, the phone will have to erase the data immediately. No option for you to choose not to erase data during rooting process if not mistaken. That's why I dare not to root again the phone.

How to use adb ???
Hi Guys,
I think I have no lucky these days...
I was testing a new ROM and when a returned the backup with TWRP android asked me a patteren for unlock.
The patter I usauly use dont work.
I found a help that say to erase some files in /data/system but it doenst work...
I had a idea to block the cell with my google account and set a new PIN for unnlock... It doenst work
Now I have the cell blocked by google and its impossible to access the internal memory with TWRP...
I need help... I dont know what to do...
Please !!!!
Sounds like your only way back is to format/delete all your data and start from scratch. You can use fastboot to do this.
I think this is the way... but I never did this before...
Do you know a step by step to do this !?
If I understand rightly you have a Google locked phone. I have not tried this on the OP3T but if you are able to reach the boot up screen where Google asks you for the password/pattern lock, you can try inserting an OTG drive of any capacity into your device. The phone will ask for changing storage. After clicking 'OK' you will be taken to the storage section. Go to 'Apps' and from there to 'Setting'. If you are able to reach this far, do a complete reset from that 'Settings' section and you would be able to recover your phone. I repeat, I have not tried this on the OP3T but have successfully tried this on some other phones. Best of luck and hope you get back your toy.
Let me also add that you won't be able to recover a Google blocked phone by factory resetting from recovery. The only way to do this is to reset it from the settings section of the OS itself after you have booted up.

Hello,
I've bought a Mi 5 to my son and he changed the lock screen pin code and subsequently fogot it. Now, without being able to get passed screen lock login, without a recovery, how do I factory reset the phone?
I'm unsuccessful in unlocking the bootloader, the device (Mi 5) is not attached to the account. This attachment is done in the settings which I cannot access because I do not know the pin code.
I've found this article, but no response has been given yet : https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5/help/mi-5-dead-factory-reset-t3379029
How on earth do I reset the phone? Does anyone know how to do this?
Please please please help me out...

PS This is a cross post with this article, Ill update this post with whatever finding I get. http://en.miui.com/thread-1016219-1-1.html
Answering my own question:
Warning, this will erase everything on your phone, it's a factory reset.
Connect to your google account, use Find my phone, choose the device and continue logging in. Choose Consider erasing your device, then click Yes.
This will erase everything on the phone and will enable you to access the phone again after reinstalling.
