I have wave secure on my phone....... i removed the sim and booted the phone so it locked..... i entered the wavesecure unlock pin and it unlocked and i have validated this on the screen.
but the phones lock screen is stuck and it will not accept my PIN even though im 100% sure its correct.
Is there a way to disable it or change it..... i have ADB access?
thanks

After you failed numerous times, doesn't the phone give you the option to log in your google account and reset the passcode?
If you haven;t log into your google account in the phone (you go to play.google.com, and use the Android device manager to change your passcode, or enter the code wrong many times and it will let you have an option to reset by your gmail).
Or if you don't have adb debugging enable or someway to access it, there is no way except factory reseting.
How in earth you forget your code and can't log into the google account?
You aren't using someone elses phone are u?

If usb debugging is disabled, then no, there's no way.

Install adb, connect your phone to your PC, then use the command "adb devices". If a device code is listed, then it's enabled.

Hello guys,
my son has a ZTE A7, and he was dumb enough to set lock screen with a complicated pattern which he forgot.
When he tried to unlock the phone, he wasn't able to do it and now it is locked.
He gets a message saying that there where too many failed attempts to unlock the phone, and the it asks for the gmail user and pwd. This would be great if wi-fi or 3g was active, which is not the case.
I've searched and found some ways to unlock the phone, but I'm stuck because phone isn't rooted usb debugging may or may not be enabled.
Any suggestion on how to workaround this? Or does he owns now a nice brick?
Thanks a lot if anyone can give an idea.

I've googled for a hard reset solution and found it: using emergency call just had to do the following:
Remove battery and reinsert it.
Remove memory card
Touch emergency call
Key in *983*987#
dial
Done, problem solved!
I didn't realize these tablets had a lock out feature where you would need the previous user to login first before you can login with your Google account. I'm trying to talk to the previous user who was logged in (actually 2 owners before me, device had broken screen that I fixed) but they aren't responding. So how can I unlock this and bypass this stupid lock out feature? I've been trying to follow the guides here to unlock the bootloader with no luck. I can no longer "enable usb debugging" because I'm locked out of Android. I can access recovery and fastboot fine. Any help??
Nevermind I figured out how to bypass the Factory Reset Protection!! For anyone wondering, just search youtube for how to bypass it for whatever android version you have
Hello !
As written in the title I've just unlock my phone's bootloader.
And after rebooting the device, it's now in lock state and it ask me my mi account's password.
I use my phone number for log into my MI account.
Anyway I tried every password I'm using since 2012 but nothing worked, so I decided to reset my password cause impossible to guess it.
But even with that, the phone continue to tell me that the password is incorrect.
I try to relock bootloader, flash a global rom in fastboot mode and the unlock tool (wich also told me that my password don't match my account and I need a 6 digits verification code (wtf?)), but my phone is still locked.
Can anyone help me ? I really don't want to buy a new phone just because I did something wrong, I really messed up this time..
Cheers !
