Hi there,
Friend of mine using Lenovo A6000+, Doesn't have google account in that phone. It was secured with the pattern lock. But unfortunately he forgot the unlock pattern. Since he have a lot of contacts in that phone, there is no way to reset it. Its full stock version. Just a basic user., so no root access or anything. In this scenario any other way to unlock the phone without doing a factory reset? The google answers are helpful only if the usb debugging is enabled. Since it is not rooted and basically a very common user used that phone, i don't think usb debugging is enabled. Any help appreciated.
By the way, i'm also thinking of flashing a custom recovery into the phone. Will that be of any help? Would it cause the phone to lose data? Will that need usb debugging enabled to do it?

I dont think, there's anything you can do about it. Ask him first, if he had ever connected to pc and authorized it for usb debugging. Otherwise, the only option left is to factory reset.
Edit: Brother, I'm working on something to change the pattern, which obviously I'll tell you. I'll make a flashable zip which you can flash through twrp. Lets see how this goes.
I'm not sure, if I'll be able to do it. But if it does, it would be very helpful for everyone.
:silly:
Edit 2: Finally I got it working!!! hurray!!
Just flash this zip below and the next time your phone boots, you can enter any "more than 3-dot" pattern and the phone will accept. Later, you can set new pattern or anything.

P.S. I used CWM recovery on stock KK to flash it. Don't know why but I couldn't manage to flash twrp. Who cares anyway, if our job gets done. :silly:

USB Debug works great
Possible to enable OEM Lock via ODIN or ADB ?
Everything is blocked by FRP Lock
######
Hi all,
Regarding s6 edge plus, I have a SM-G928I, is it possible to enable usb debugging without going into developer options ? A friend bought a second hand phone and its locked to an account unfortunately, and ODIN wont connect so ican root/reflash due to im assuming the usb debugging not being enabled.
I'm trying to save him some money by paying a repair shop >.< any tips?
Thanks
Anyone?
They sure are nice phones, the screen real estate vs my HTC one m9 is certainly noticeable
Did you install Samsung USB drivers and plugged phone in download mode? Can try also going to recovery and performing factory reset
Have installed samsung drivers, i can see the phone on the PC as a drive to load data to, but odin doesn't see it.
Factory reset seems to still have the account linked, a security feature of 5.1 i'm sure.
I'm getting a copy of the stock rom from sammobile
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G928I/
fingers crossed i can use this and it recognises it if i just replace the stock file
can it be forced via adb?
Okay so turns out i'm thinking of the wrong thing. USB Debug works., great can interface via ODIN and ADB.
Is it possible to enable "OEM Unlock' via command line interface of adb, or ODIN ? without access to the OS this is making life hard
Flash stock firmware. You need to flash stock firmware to access the OS and then enable OEM Unlock. There is no other way. You cannot charge it even without enabling it.
AFTER ROOTING MAKE SURE NOT TO DISABLE OEM UNLOCK.
I tried that, flashed stock firmware from sammob but it still wants the sellers Gmail account has he bought a brick?
Do a factory reset after ODIN flash. Flash TWRP, access recovery, format system, cache and data (including internal) and then check.
thanks, will update soon
Stock firmware flash works
Factory reset / cache clear works
Flashing TWRP fails due to FRP lock , due to the OEM Unlock not being enabled im assuming
"Custom Binary(RECOVERY) Blocked by FRP Lock"
I'm sorry but I think you are locked out of the phone.
It certainly seems that way. its always frustrating as a geek to be defeated

Hi, I've bought a phone with same condition.
Have you solved the problem?
Sure have, I obtained a file which allows you into the settings from the Google lock screen which allows you to enable OEM unlock. Due to the legalities though I'm not sure it's allowed to share this here though
can you please post/send me this file ? and instructions, i assume you flash it via Odin/adb

Hi all,
I have encrypted my device and using PATTERN as the security. I do restart device once in a week and it asks encryption pattern to start Android. Today when i restarted, it asked me PASSWORD instead of PATTERN. I tried Google password here but it does not work. I dont understand y its asking for PASSWORD when i have selected PATTERN.
I cannot start my device now. I cannot afford to factory reset as the data is imp to me
Please help/advice/guide.
SOLUTION - http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/help/phone-password-instead-pattern-solution-t3424457
Guys, Do not encrypt your phone. Motorola dont have any resolution for this problem.
Infact their Engineer told there is no such option which enables pattern/password at the boot up (Can u believe it?). They have such ppl on their support.
My only options are:
1. Delete all data
2. Install custom recovery to access encrypted data. But i believe that will void my warranty.
If anybody has any other solution, please advise.
Solved it
Guys i have solved the issue
Saved my data too. no need for custom recovery.

Hi, I'm trying to get my phone back. I lost my phones password that is used to unlock the phone.
I dont know my google account im using on the phone either. Yes this is my phone.
I dont want to get locked out with google frp either
If i put twrp on and do a factory wipe, will i still need the pin?
Also, my phone doesn't need the pin to boot. thanks in advance

No you won't need a pin in twrp if you have not encrypted the device..no you won't need pin to boot, but frp might get you..not sure how that works, I also feel like there are files you can delete through twrp to remove lock code, someone else will have to confirm this though, just something I heard
thanks but its not a concern now. I was on latest official ota update, flashed twrp but cant get lineage, or any custom rom to fully boot. It just gets to the logo screen and wont go any further. I have not used my moto a while.

FRP is disabled on unlocked bootloader.
PIN can be deleted with twrp's file manager.
LOS - you flashed wrong build. You need custom rom for N Modem. LOS by Hashbang works on N modem.
Hello, my friend gave my a Samsung Galaxy J510fn, because she forgot her lock pattern. Phone is not stole or something, as you might think first I got a login and password for google account registered on this phone if that would help. Phone has been using by woman so there is no things like custom recovery, root or usb debbuging turned on and it has stock firmware. Normally I will factory reset this phone but she said that she don't want to lose anything, specially photos, videos etc. I tried to unlock this pattern by programs like dr.fone or backup data by Kies but none of these are seeing this phone :crying:
So is there any possibility for cracking this phone without losing any data?

Back in the day you were able to remove pattern if you knew the samsung account details. Not sure if thats a thing anymore...

But when we boot phone for the first time it's force us to create samsung account or we can skip that step? Because she said that she didn't mention of creating samsung account. Even tried to search her ID through email but can't find anything.

then wiping everything is the only choice i guess
You can backup files from recovery mode (should be able to do it in stock recovery) I think (maybe copy to PC). Then make a factory reset.
Recovery Mode - Vol+, Home and Power buttons
Download Mode - Vol- , Home and Power buttons
And 2nd option. If you can, go to Download Mode and flash her TWRP! Make Nandroid backup there and then make factory reset. Flash TWRP via Odin of course.
But you must read how to enable USB Debugging if it is needed, I forgot how to

HEY HEY HEY.
Chill, boyes. Leave reset alone.
You can go to Google Find My Device and change something from there.
Hello there, I'm using OnePlus 6t on OOS 10, somehow my kid changed the lockscreen pin and now forgot.
I've read multiple threads and asked a lot of people, but there seems no method to bypass the lockscreen pin.
I'd some important files which I couldn't backup/ not until my last backup.
Is there any way possible to recover my files after a hard reset as that's the only alternate i can think of without bypassing lockscreen without root.
FYI: Bootloader locked, currently locked, haven't hard reset yet, usb debugging off.
Nope, if you hard reset you lose everything. User storage is encrypted with a per-session key that is wiped when a reset occurs meaning everything on the phone becomes useless garbage the moment that key is lost. If you have adb enabled and have authorized your computer once before you might be able to pull files off using that but otherwise you might be screwed
The lock screen is designed to keep people out, wouldn't be much use if it let people exfiltrate data whenever they wanted
Don't even think you'll be able to get the pin off the phone. When you reset Google asks for the old pin used in the device.
If USB debugging is off, I don't even think you can flash stock firmware onto the device either.
You're pretty much screwed.
The best way to do is MSM tool. If you don't know the password your can't even get in to recovery mode( required password). By doing that all data will be gone.
