okay, so i was trying a new rom and i backup my old rom in my USB-OTG.
so after restoring my backup i successfully booted up my device and when i was on lock screen. i try to use my fingerprint and it asked me to insert my PIN so i insert my PIN, but it keep saying WRONG PIN. and i am sure that my PIN is correct !
i tried to get the option to recover my pin using my google account but that option is not coming up ! i tried 100 times !
is there any other way i can reset my pin ?
UPDATE: So just after posting this thread i found this solution http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/psa-twrp-backups-lockscreen-security-t3245070
and it worked ! and problem solved !
Just remember to disable all lockscreen security before you make your backup next time.

I have Artemis HD2 v15 or v17 rom. CHT was cooked in.. But i use windows lockscreen with pin.
sorry mate, nothing will work.. Only if u used myphone to backup your contacts or pimbackup..
I had this last week :S stupid stupid stupid
lucky I ALWAYS backup my contacts. very strange right, you type in the code (correctly) and it always says incorrect. ARGHH! flash a new rom, get into HSPL. Hopefully you made a backup..
Contacts saved on your SIM will still be there, phonecontacts are gone, no way around. I'll never use windows again, never will have this with android.
This is my brothers phone. He dont backup anything ;]
i'm pretty sure this is caused by cht...
it warns you (if you install it and its not cooked in), that its not compatible with a pin.
i guess its the first soft reset after rom flashing? or anything else...

Hi guys,
I have a problem with my Samsung Galaxy 3, the phone often asks again for my simcard number even though I allready booted it. When I enter the number, it doesn't boot again, but it just goes right away to the main menu like it was before.
Could this be a software problem or do you think the problem is just caused by my simcard itself?
Thanks
Happens to me as well (no problem with the SIM card, I've switched for a new one and it keeps happening). I ended up deactivating the SIM lock and just let it boot without SIM code...
Please elaborate !
what only4omkar said. Also when does it exactly happen? While you are using the phone or only after unlocking the screen?
You have Eclair on your phone, right? Been there too. With Froyo the problem is solved, but without the update the easiest thing is to turn off the PIN code request, as mentioned.
It happens only when the screen lock is on. I do have Eclair. If I install a ROM, you think the problem will go away then?

For me the problem completely disappeared since I flashed Froyo (I tried JPF and JPM). I turned the PIN code request back on, so if the problem didn't disappear, I would notice.
But if you afraid to flash, the other workaround works well, and if ypu want security, you can use the pattern lock.
Happened to me with Eclair 2.1, now with JPM seems ok.
I'll first try turning off the pin code and turning on the pattern lock, if I have some more time to learn about flashing I'll maybe give it a go later
Thanks guys!
Had this problem too on eclair,disable pincode was my workaround too...
Now on Jpm which fixed this problem.

Make sure u take off u're sim card an memory card while u flash a new ROM ...

Hello
I have a problem with unlock my phone. After every install of any rom based on EUI my phone show Leeco Login. I can't skip it. After pressing LOG IN I see information that my phone is binded with number +12486***220 and I have to write password. But my Leeco password doesn't match (is incorect). I tried to install many roms, make wipe dalvik,cache and data format but it doesn't help. After restoring my earlier backup (auriel) I can log in to my phone only via fingerprint, 4 digit PIN don't work (Your PIN is incorrect). How to restore phone to default settings ? Format SYSTEM ?
Please help my
Hello! From time to time I keep myself busy with smartphones. Now i've got P9 Lite with an issue that is difficult for me to fix. The first problem was about SIM lock i guess. The phone couldn't read new SIM card. My dad did a factory reset through recovery mode and here starts the real problem. I CAN'T LOG TO ANOTHER GOOGLE ACCOUNT THAN ONE BEFORE FACTORY RESET. To remove SIM lock I have to reinstall the whole system but i can't do that because bootloader is locked. I can't unlock it because i can't get into the phone and I don't own it so I have no box with IMEI numbers and so on. I'll try to contact the person who owns the phone about the google account before but I wonder maybe there's another solution? Thanks in advance.

You can go to stock recovery and wipe your user data. Otherwise you're out of luck as I guess your data is encrypted.
