So, i am running offical 6.0.1 rom. Today i had low battery, so i turned on the Ultra power saving mode and turned off the phone. Next time i opened it, it was still at the power saving mode and it had shutdown my Google keyboard and now the google now talking thing was the default kb. And i need to first put the password before using the fingerprint. I cant. Is there any way to install some keyboard to get password written. I know that i can factory reset, but i have autenthicators and important files inside. I have rooted and installed TWRP.
EDIT: I flashed samsung keyboard with TWRP and got it working.
Found this for bypassing the fingerprint, not sure if it still works with MM
Delete the template.db in /data/validity from TWRP

Hi everyone,
Sorry if this has been answered before but I've done some serious searching and can't find anything. I've found my old S5 to which I've forgotten the lockscreen pin. I would normally reset it using my Google account but I no longer have a sim that fits nor can I set up a new WiFi connection without access to the settings.
The device is not rooted nor do I think ISB debugging is enabled.
Thanks in advance!
Boot to recovery and factory reset
Volume up & home & power from a powered off state

Thanks, I should have made a note that I'm hoping not to have to reset it. I'd much rather be able to access it to see if I have left anything important on there.
If you flashed TWRP you might be able to wipe the security via recovery - but the security is there to prevent exactly what you are trying to do, so it won't be a couple of buttons to press
iirc, you have to adb in from recovery or something, but never done it myself
Flash TWRP with ODIN and have a google on removing lock screen security from TWRP
Or buy a SIM for £1 and top it up £5 (Or whatever your countries £ is
EDIT - Could give this a try

Make a backup in TWRP first (Could always restore the data side of the backup with TiBu after resetting which would ignore the lock I imagine)
I received a Samsung SM-G360V phone a months ago from a friend who no longer uses the phone. I soon realized that the phone was not able to get pass the Samsung Account lock screen. I have asked my friend but they do not have the account info. I have searched for ways to bypass the screen but nothing has worked. Is there a way to completely wipe the current ROM, then install a custom ROM (or maybe even stock) that would get rid of the Lock Screen? Or, is there an easier way that I am unaware of?

why not just boot into recovery and wipe data? or use odin to flash the stock rom. i have the same phone so i know theres an image on xda. also its not the new update so your able to get root if you use kingroot. theres no custom roms or recovery for this phone i have looked everywhere. It was all i could do to even find a way to root. To boot into recovery you turn it off and hold volume up home and power. To boot download mode to use odin you hold the same with volume down instead of up.
I have Samsung Galaxy j36 v and I can't seem to bypass the Google account
Hey, so I have had my phone rooted for a long time. I have a Galaxy S5 6.0.1 Marshmallow.
I decided I wanted to get Framework installed so I downloaded the right files and flashed it in TWRP.
My phone took way longer than 10 min to reboot into system so I thought I was stuck in a bootloop and decided to run my phone through TWRP again.
I tried rebooting but that didn't work. I have my phone's backup saved onto a micro SD so I did a factory reset and then tried rebooting.
I got past the rebooting logo and actually got to my lock screen where it asks for my password.
From there, I've been getting spammed with 3 different messages, one saying that IMS service is down, com.sec.vsimservice is down, and WfcService is down.
After I press ok to all 3 of the messages, my phone is still in the lock screen asking for my password but the phone doesn't recognize that im touching the screen to type. After letting the phone stay like that for a few minutes, the lock screen that asks for my password goes away and all I can see is my wallpaper background (no notification panel either) but now the phone recognizes me touching the screen ( I know that because the LED lights up for the windows button and back button )
So basically I decided to go into TWRP and flash my recovery that I had saved on the microSD.
After that didn't work, I've just been going through a series of factory resetting my phone and wiping Dalvik files and then flashing my recovery. My phone is getting unrealistically hot too.
Btw I never downloaded the Exposed Uninstaller from the forum so I tried downloading it onto my pc and then sending the file over to my phone through download mode using Odin so that I could flash the uninstaller through my TWRP but that didn't work because the PDA in Odin does not recognize the uninstaller file.
Please, I really need help and thanks to anyone who tries, it would mean a lot if someone could figure out what I can do. Thanks.
Since you've tried restoring your backup and everything seems to have failed (it sucks, I know) you should try to install a completely stock firmware which you can download from here: http://live.samsung-updates.com/index.php?device=SM-G900I Just make sure you select your exact phone model from the dropdown menu at the top right side as you didn't mentioned which of the 40 S5s you have lol. And after you flash stock firmware and successfully boot up try to restore your backup. If it's still bugged - flash stock again and start off fresh. Let me know how it turns out. I'll help with installing xposed later as well, first let's get your phone running again
Hey guys,
So today I rooted my T580, 7.0 for the first time using this guide and I installed couple of apps I saw most people were using including some xposed modules.
Everything was working just fine til the moment I decided to add 'Draw unlock pattern' on my tablet to unlock it.
As soon as I put it to sleep and tried to unlock it, it just won't unlock, even though it recognizes the pattern is correct.
I draw the correct pattern, it hangs for about 2 seconds it puts the tablet to sleep again. I can't even shutdown the tablet because it asks me to draw the pattern.
What can I do to fix this?

Hold the Home, Vol down and Power buttons for about ten seconds. As soon as the screen goes black, switch your finger from the Vol down to the Vol up button. This should put you back into TWRP where you can reflash and start over. You have to be quick shifting from Vol down to Vol up or the tablet will boot to download mode instead of TWRP. If it does, then do the same thing again but switch faster.

If you have twrp installed its pretty easy to remove the pattern lock.

Thank you everyone, I was able to use the TWRP and restored a backup. I thought it was some app incompatibility but apparently none of the secure lock-screens work with SuperSU, they all mess it up and I end up restoring the tablet.
Hello,
I downloaded cf auto root for the s8+ and flashed on it.
and then I flashed twrp on it.
I flashed it with Odin 3. 12. 3.
the phone tried to boot, but then it went out and now nothing works anymore. (I tried all sorts of keyboard shortcuts, didn't work)
The screen still remains black.
Now my question is if there's any way to save the phone?
I'm asking for help.
Hey,
can you still access odin? you could download stock firmware and see if that fixes it
Does not work, the display remains off. The phone doesn't make any vibrations or anything else
Sorry, i don't know how to help with that, only possible solution i found was pressing vol-down and power until it reboots
