S3 Neo locked via google dashboard, unlockpassword wont work - Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi guys,
i got a little Problem.
My Mom lost her Phone (samsung s3 neo) and i locked it via google account manager, on the site were you can track you lost phone and let it ring. I set a message with my phonenumber and a passwort to unlock it ( it ask for a number and a special sign).
We found the phone but the password i set wont work and the screen only shows "enter password" without any message or phonenumber i entered on the website. (its my standart password so i cant be wrong...)
I try to set a new password on the google tracking site, but it wont aks for a new password again. only says locked.
Then i found some setting directly in the dashboard to lock your phone. i set a new password, it says phone lcoked, but the new password wont work neither (weired is, this form only ask for a number not for a special sign)
i tried her googleacountpassword, her pin but it all wont work.
i saw a video an yt with a bug in the lockscreen of the s3neo, but it wont work on my firmwareversion.
does anyone know how to resett the lock via the google dashboard or how to fix this issue? i cant be the first one, who got that problem.
I know i could resett it via factory menue but my mom had some stuff on the phone without backup...
maybe someone has some idea?

Emergency Call (need for your lights)

Hi,
Does any one know how to remove the annoying Emergency Call Feature.
I explain me ...
I have made a lot of search with all words but does not find a working solution.
When simple password PIN feature is used to lock the TyTN you have to type your 4 digits PIN password and then Emergency Number appears and then you must click OK button or OK key.
In my Wizard when I type my PIN Password this auto unlock the Wizard (without emergency call)
I have tested the solution from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296674 saying to delete these keys HLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\RIL\ & HLM\SECURITY\ECALL\ but I always have this amazing Emergency Number which always appears.
These keys a auto regenerated by WM when you enter your SIM PIN password to activate phone on restart and even without keys this Emergency Call Number always appear.
I have search in all the registry for 112 but does not find somethings.
Is it hard coded ? Where is stored this information ? Is it possible to replace the new PIN password control with the old one (from my wizard ?)
I would like to remove the Emergency Call function and have a normal password control (I don't want to have problems with emergency call center)
Thanks to all in advance.
Found theese Regkeys in WM6:
HLM/Security/ECall
HLM/Security/EcallWithoutSIM
HLM/Security/ECallWithSIM
Just add your wished numbers to the List, and softreset the device...

Little Help Needed.

Hi bro's is there any perfect software to password protect my contacts and sms messages?
i have Wizard with windows mobile 6.0
if there is any please tell me..
Regards.
Theres obviously the password protect built into the phone. You can set it to every 5 minutes, like i do, and then it will prompt you to enter your PIN or Alphanumeric password everytime the phone is inactive for 5 minutes. The only issue with that is once you unlock your phone it will allow you to access your contacts therefore if someone grabs it from you, so can they.

Enter two PINs at startup

Hi,
this is my first post. I've read this forum and didn't find the answer for the following question. I have HTC Touch Diamond 2 Topaz WM 6.1.
For company policy reasons, I have to lock the device after a few minutes of inactivity. I use the standard feature AllSettings/Personal/Lock with a Simple PIN. It works fine.
The problem is that, when I start up the device, first of all, it prompts me to introduce the Simple PIN for unlocking the screen, and then the usual startup PIN. So, I have to introduce two passwords for accessing the phone.
I don't want to use S2U2 or similar because of performance (moreover, I've seen the same problem with S2U2). The standard mechanism is OK, but I would like to workaround this annoying double PIN entering.
Is there any registry tweak or something to avoid the unlocking screen at startup?.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Marc,
My company's IT department also put restrictions on my phone. I have Blackberry on mine and there is lots and lots written about the issue of the security policy for this. Do you have Blackberry on yours? I can help you if you do.
Or do you use MS Exchange for your emails? I know nothing about this.
Either way, you should only have one pin to enter, not 2. Have you set up your own security unlock via start/settings/Personal/Lock too? If so, you should be able to disable this one.
How can I lock my phone after a while?
Thanks for your answer. I use TD2 WM61 and Lotus Notes with Lotus Traveler as a sync mechanism.
To lock my phone with password unlock, I go to settings/personal/lock and configure it with a Simple PIN. The problem comes when I boot my phone: it asks for this Simple PIN, and then it asks for the SIM PIN... which is annoying. It seems like the startup process is slower than the locking mechanism and then, first locks, then asks for the usual startup PIN.
Initially, I don't want to use software like S2U2, TouchLockPro or similar. Is there a way to customize the lock feature?. Or is there a different way to lock with password my phone?.
Thanks again.
MARC

OK Google "Trusted Voice" not always unlocking the phone

This is kind of a strange one. When I first boot up the phone in the morning and try to use the "Trusted voice" feature it makes me put in my password as well...I fully understand this because the phone was just turned on so it is a security feature. This is where the problem begins. The "Trusted Voice" feature will work for a while with no problems at all. Then all of a sudden, out of the blue, it will let me ask my request but then before giving me a response, it brings me to the password screen to type in my password and I get a little icon at the top asking me to setup "Trusted voice". When I click on the icon it brings me to the screen to setup up the Trusted voice but it is already set and I don't have to do anything?
I really hopes this makes sense...Any help is greatly appreciated!!
I just want to add that I have the Sprint version and I am not rooted.
