dunno wat accu is, i ended up holdign both volume keys n hittting the power button n it reset all settingss
stealing your thread a bit.. is it possible to use the lock code only when starting phone? i only found option for how many hours idle before lock code

I thought, it would probably be a good idea to put a password on my XDA Mini S, because I don't want people accessing all my data and my phone. So, I set my simple 4 digit password, set it to automatic after 15 minutes, and turned off my device. I turned it back on, and the device was unlocked. I thought i was going crazy, so I tried a few more times, disable and re-enabled the password, but this is just rubbish. Does anyone else's Wizard unlock itself if the time till the password screen should be activated hasn't passed? So it works if I set it to display the password screen after 0 minutes, but even then i'm worried it might do something, such as, press the "Yes" button when the device asks me if I wish to format my memory card which it is doing increasingly.
Anyone experienced this?
Thanks!
yupz, i can imagine what do u feel with this problem. it also happened 2 me in the first time i changed my ROM to AKU2. and i also feel a little bit confuse bout it. BUT...
then i think it's more useful, because when u put ur device on standby (push the power button) and in a while suddenly u need 2 use ur device again u don't need 2 fill in the password. it will automatically lock ur device only when u don't use ur device in 15 minutes.
so it works when u don't use ur device in 15 miutes and when u set it to 0 minutes, it will put ur device on standby directly after u don't touch ur device in seconds and it makes uncomfortable.
that's all bout my experience 4 the device lock. i hope it can help ur confusion. Gut Luck!!!
Im sure everybody has run into this problem on other android devices but i haven't seen this problem with many x10 owners. It must've unlocked itself and flapped around in my pocket until it incorrectly drew a pattern 5 or more times and somehow pressed the "Forgot Pattern?" button.
So your stuck with a screen that asks for your Gmail account login and ive tried every single combination of correct username and pass to get in but it is impossible ( Account logs in fine on PC ).
Ive read about ways to solve this and have come upon 3 different options.
1. Manual Factory Reset ( It's an option but i don't want to spend hours getting my phone back to how it was )
2. While in a call, ending the call and using a short window of opportunity (.5 seconds) to tinker around with your settings to try and make it possible to access your phone.
3. Download the Android SDK and enter something into the command prompt.
I would like to try option 3 however i heard that your phone must be rooted, i don't know how to go about rooting or if it is even possible for the x10.
Any support appreciated, thanks.
i guess don't use pattern lock is my suggestion. is there something else that can be used instead of pattern lock?

Might sound like a silly suggestion... but have you tried powering off. taking the battery and sim card out.. give it 30 seconds or so then put it all back together again.. might let you try your google account details then..
Did same, had to seus to get back in Lucky was 1st day owning so not bothered.
You mention the call thing, can you not disable the pattern lock whilst in call ?. I didnt know the phone could take a call when locked out so didnt try.
Hi,
I have owned my HTC HD2 for about 3 months now. I have had a problem since i first got it which is really bugging me. Sometimes when the phone locks, i am unable to unlock it with the slider. The slider gets to about half way across the screen and then freezes. If i leave it for a few minutes it goes back to a locked position agian and when i attempt to slide the slider across, it freezes.
The only thing which gives me access to my phone again is to perform a hard reset by removing the battery.
Any ideas? The phone is on UK Vodafone and is running the latest firmware (v.1.72)

I don't have an answer, its likely to be sense trying to load something and hanging.there are loads of threads about unlock problems, all different, however I wanted to help you avoid confusion by pointing out that removing the battery is a soft reset, not a hard reset.
I'd start by removing some apps, see if it changes the behavior, then re add til it happens
i've the same issue. but not removing battery, just press little red restard button uder battery cover. i think it happens when i enable rotation of today screen or because of proximatelyscreenoff program bug. after removing today from rotation of bsd tweek i have 1-2 restarts for 2 weeks.
I had the same thing sometimes, but never happened with the latest rom I am using, and I am pretty much installing the same apps over and over after each flash...
You aren't by chance running the facebook application?
Leaving that open and locking your phone will result in you not being able to unlock your phone
I wonder if this problem has anything to do with power supply; I sometimes can't unlock the screen either and a few moments ago my battery had run out and when putting it on AC I wasn't able to unlock it. When it had charged a bit there were no problems unlocking it.

HD2 screen unlock probblem
Hi All,
I have put my screen unlock code as 0000 and set as 5 mins to lock the phone.
But that is becoming a headache now.
Sometime the phone behaves very unusual, it doesn't takes my code "0000", no option rather to reset the phone or remove battery and restart.
After the reset the phone works with my code (0000) but don't know when the same problem starts again.
Need Help..
Anyone solved this problem?
In the Att Tilt2 the power button was on Top & could close the Screen while talking on the phone
How do we do that in the HD2 cos its Off button is on the Red Call Shut button
Anyone
Unlock Problem
I everybody,
I have this issue aswell but even worse than everyone else. I can't unlock my device at all anymore else I do the "hold both VolUp&Down + Power Button " for reset to manufacturing settings of the cracked ROM.

best regards,
hanny
HD2 Hard Locked
Okay...so maybe Facebook is locking my HD2. It's LOCKED I'm recharging, I've attemted a soft restart, hard restart and every other restart out there...nothing is working. I even tried pushing the white button below the battery case and holding the volume up and down...I actually thought that it began to do a hard restart. It did begin but then it got stuck at the "swipe" demo. It is definitely stuck.
HELP!!!!
Hi,
I got a new samsung mobile phone yesterday, and not being very clued up with phones, I managed to set a password on the phone, I cannot remember it
So when I turn the phone on it asks me for my password,
Does anyone know how to reset it back to factory defaults??
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks
Theres two possible options that may work.
Go online and login into your Live ID account.
Under devices you should see your phone listed.
There you have options to Find, Trace, Lock and Erase your phone.
Try locking it, then leave it a couple of minutes and see if that lock code now unlocks it fully.
Turn the Phone OFF.
Then switch it ON, by holding the Power Button + Camara Button + Vol Down Buttons. You'll have the option to Format the Phone, this will reset it back to Factory Settings.
You'll have to set it up again, but at least you can use it.
Hello,
I have a problem with my "sharp softbank aquos 402SH
I setup a pattern lock. Since I have not used the phone for some time I cannot remember the pattern anymore.
I thought an unlock with a hard reset is no problem. But I found no way to boot into recovery mode(tried power and minus button, power and plus button to boot).
Also the device did not show up in adb as a device(Windows 8/Sharp USB driver installed) but was recognized as a storage device.
The user manual says:
"Do not forget pattern, Lock No. passcode or password set for canceling Screen lock(write it down if necessary). If you forget it, visit the nearest SoftBank Shop for recovery procedure."
As I live in Sudan and there are only softbank stores in Japan. So this is not possible for me.
Is there any other way to hard reset the device?
same prob

Are you sure? Have you tried power-cycling the device? (Let it discharge all the way, and charge it all the way.)

Hi there

could someone help me out of this
thx
i also have that kind problem also show to many people but no way found of any to recover my bally please do something
As I think this phone did not get that many updates this might still work. I remember early on back then that i somehow managed to make a pattern that I had not meant to so could not unlock. Also quickly found out I could not get into the bootloader. But I found out you could bypass the lockscreen if you went into the emergency call screen. The thing is, you'd have to make a call then you could use the drop down notifications and enter settings app or something like that. I can't remember clearly, but I could atleast get access. And from there i just disabled the pattern. Don't feel I can recommend this though as it depends on how quick you are, and police services are sort of being misused this way. I remember being frazzled and extremely annoyed at that point as I had only had the phone for a couple of days. Ended up spamming a call three or four times to the cops to bypass without connecting a call. They called me back wondering what the deal was ? oops.
