Knock Code Problem - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I've set a knock code on my D802 but when my screen is off and I'm tapping the knock code sequence it's like not accepting the code but when I press the power button and tap the sequence again it unlocks the phone. I'm rooted with custom recovery from AutoRec. Any suggestions?

Flash stock recovery.

How can I do it without resetting data? Because I don't want to set up all accounts and apps.

Hi
You are probably stuck to the device and the screen closed you must hold in a vertical position using the knock code

[Q] how to reset a locked phone

need your help guys
My mates just got a galaxy s and hes locked the phone with the pattern unlock screen, theres no google account registered to the phone because its brand new so there is no other option than to keep trying with the pattern unlock!
Is there a way to factory reset the phone without flashing a new rom whilst in this situation?
If not, where can i find the correct stock rom (not interested in upgrading yet) and the correct version of odin?
Thanks Craig
you can boot it into recovery when you shut down the phone and then hold volume up, home and power until the samsung galaxy s i9000 screen appears. then release the buttons, you can navigate in the menu with the volume keys and confirm with home.

Hi all.
Please help me.
I bought a new LG G2 D802 32 GB.
I made all upadtes then rooted with ioroot25 and applied D802_AutoRec.apk.
I forgot to put new ROM.zip in internal memmory.
I did full wipe (Dalvik, Cache, System, Data) and after that phone was stuck at lg logo.
I managed to flash new rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476 used Europe OPEN KitKat D80220D_00.kdz
All went ok but after restart i have "Enter PIN/password to decrypt" and cant`t do anything.
I cant`t even enter recovery/hard reset tryed - "When the LG logo is displayed, let go of the power button, keep pressing the volume down key and then press once more the power button." - I manged to enter recovery earlier
Phone is still rooted.

Didnt make any difference to mine It turns on I try all different key combinations to get into recovery but its as if its not there. When my phone loads up I get Enter PIN/password to decrpyt and after about 3-5 mins it starts clicking. I have restored it back to stock but the decryption screen is always there.....Is my phone knackered?
Cheers.

I managed to enter recovery. "hold the volume down+up don't touch power"

I want to thank Alexxxx for the info on entering recovery mode.
I had encrypted my other G2 cuz I never used it but wanted to use it so I turned it on
and behold, it wanted password that I forgot. I live nowhere near a Sprint store so I started
using internet.
The message from Alexxxx saved the day.
Thanks Alexxxx and XDA Forum

Thanks alot i figuried it out
same problem
Hi guys,
I have the same exact problem, restored my rom with LG Flash tool 2014, but now it's always asking me this pin/password. And I tried all combinations with volume up/down and it's impossible to go in recovery, what can I do? My LG G2 is a european model 32 GB
this is the screen I'm always getting
Same Problem Here
Hi,
I'm having the same problem.
I have an LG D802. I was on CloudyG3 with TWRP recovery. While using the phone, I noticed a yellow tinge in the right side of the LCD. So I figured, I'll show it to the service center and get the issue sorted out. Obviously, I couldn't take it there rooted and on a custom ROM as they would annul my warranty otherwise. So I decided to unroot it using the LG tools. (I have done this before too. But I did not face any such problem back then).
This time, it is taking me to the screen and asking me to enter a pin/password to decrypt.
I tried booting into recovery using the old method (volume_down + power and LG logo flashes, release and press power again, then 3 times power) and also tried another method as recommended by someone above (volume_down + power till LG logo appears and then release power and press volume_up). None of them work now. In the first method, the screen just goes blank for a few seconds and the phone reboots while in the second method, the phone boots into safe mode.
Kindly advise on what to do. I am stuck and my warranty expires on the 18th of November.
Problem Solved
Earlier when I was using the Flash.Tool.1.0.54, it wouldn't ask for region and language in the pop-up. It would just open the LG Mobile Support Tool and then I manually selected the Start Upgrade button to flash the phone. The problem with this was that on boot it would ask for pin/password. I couldn't even boot into the stock recovery for some reason.
Then I used the LG Flash tool 2014: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2470207
There was a region and language pop up and it proceeded to install the firmware.
But on boot, it still asked for the pin/password. So I tried to boot into recovery and it worked this time! Pressed the power button 3 times and it wiped my phone.
On reboot, the phone worked perfectly without asking for the pin/password. But, now it was reading my internal storage as only 16GB. I followed the directions in the link provided by @Alexxxx to repartition the internal storage in my phone. Here is the link once again: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2470207
It worked perfectly for me.

Sorry, that was a typo.
*So I tried to boot into recovery and it worked this time! Pressed the power button 3 times and it wiped my phone.
What I meant is, that I tried booting into recovery. from there it asked me to press the power button three times to wipe my phone.
Sorry for the late reply.

Disable PIN screen return key

Hi
I use the PIN on my phone for security lock.
Quick question, is there any way to have the lock-screen unlock as soon as I enter the correct code? For instance, on a previous ROM if I typed the 4 digit passcode, it'll unlock as soon as I hit that fourth digit. Is there any equivalent of this on Android? I'm using the Imperium ROM 7.0 on my rooted Galaxy S4 I9505, I have to enter the PIN and then hit the arrow-like return button.
Any suggestions? Its a minor annoyance and sort of got used to entering PIN without the return key addition.
Thanks
Its ok I managed to find the answer, Its built into Wanam Exposed!
http://gs4.wonderhowto.com/how-to/g...amsung-galaxy-s4-by-removing-ok-step-0148714/
Just tried this and confirm it work fine.
Tip: Make sure the PIN you enter is the same entered in Wanam exposed or you risk issues!

[Q] Problem with flashing nexus 7

Hello everyone,
I found a nexus 7 on a second hand website for 20 euro's.
In the tekst he sayd that the nexus dos'nt boot up after upgrading the firmware update.
So i thought its possible to try to fix it.
If i start the nexus 7 i get the google screen with in the right top the tekst start.
if i push the power button the nexus restarts and shows the same screen again.
I can swith between start, reboot bootloader, recovery mode ecs. but all dos'nt work if i push the power button.
When i try to start the bootloader that works fine but when i try to unlock it, i get the screen with the security warning and i can select yes to unlock it or no.
But when i again push the power button it reboots and nothing happens, the nexus is'nt unlock.
Is there a another way to do this or is it ready to trow in the garbige?
Is there maybe a acript that automticly push yes in the unlock bootloader screen?
Sorry for my bad english.
Best regards.

Cf Autoroot automatically unlocks the bootloader if it is locked: http://download.chainfire.eu/295/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-grouper-nakasi-nexus7.zip
worth the try. Try to flash the latest factory image after that
I tryed that one, but if i run it i get the unlock bootloader screen where i must select yes or no to unlock, but there i get stuck because if i push the power button to enter he reboots and i get that screen again.
Is there no solution to enter "Yes" in de unlock bootloader screen without using the power button or is there a script / program that auto write / flash the nexus 7, because i can't still flash that damn thing.
Asus must use another program to bring back the ship that is in the nexus, is there no thread or something that handles that problem without sending it to repair it.

Lock Problem

I've put a PIN on my phone and I don't want it now. But when I go to lock screen-password, I put my actual PIN and I get this:
What I can do to get rid of it?
I have stock B600
Thanks.

In up corner you see privacy protection, on your Firmware will be like Encrypt or smlt. Just press it, and follow the steps! But if f you can't then make factory reset!
That's a known bug in the latest firmwares. Set a pattern and insert it wrongly for 5 times then press "forgot the pattern" button or something like that and after entering the pin code it will ask you to choose the new lock method. Just press the home button and you are done
