I bought a Samsung Galaxy S3 Neo i9301i from Italy without any service offer. But i use it in Bangladesh. When i tried to use that phone here it say's to give a pin code for network lock. I went to nearest local service center and they unlock the phone in some way but i can't use my Swipe, Pattern lock . I can only use password. It is very painful giving password every time. Here is a screenshot of my lock screen. Can anyone help me about this matter?
Hmm seems that your device is encrypted.. dont know why it disabled features for you.. i suggest wiping data/ factory reset over recovery mode ( vol up + home + power ) to see if it will help. Note that this will remove everythign from your phone so backup important data
Maybe because in Italy is Locked,but i don't think that has to do...
Horrible english but i'm italian

Go to LOCK SCREEN and change to swipe or what ever you whant? Than write the password you already have signed and done. I make the same and its working for me.

I have already tried that too. It say's Pattern lock, swipe and other's lock system are disabled by administrators, credential manage or encryption policy. Please see my uploaded image

Thanks for your reply. Yes, I had encrypted my phone. Do you know anything about if i do factory reset/wiping data, will it show again a network lock? If it become network lock again it will cost me about 20$

Strange i just encrypt but when i go to lock screen i enter the password and now i normal i dont know what will happen after charge or reboot.
And dont be nervous i try to help your choice did you will accept.
(sorry for mistakes and for my english)
Well, if factory reset does not solve your problem, the alternative that I can think of is to use ODIN to flash stock firmware.
Thanks all for reply. I just solved the problem. It was happening for encrypting my device. After decrypting my device the problem is solved
Guys
Please help me..
I want to remove the page "Swipe screen to unlock" from the lock screen..
Without removing my security pattern or Fingerprint lock..
It means when i am going to unlock my phone it should directly show the unlock pattern screen..
Anyone have solution for this?? ??
Try Good Lock (app).
It will change the system ui and you can tweak it (include remove swipe to unlock).
No root,no warranty lost,. I am using it. It's cool
my mi a1 asking for pattern to reboot 'To start android draw your pattern' i tried entering pattern also but it showing wrong pattern.

Can you boot to the system somehow? It is security feature in Android and you can disable it in settings.

This will help you to unlock your le 2 using face unlock without any custom rom or root.The method is very simple(generally overlooked) and is for those who want to stay on EUI.
Pre requirements update your playservices and Google app.
Now go to settings and select fingerprint and password.From here go down and select Smart Lock under screen locking management .
Enter your phone password and proceed, from there select trusted face and proceed with the setup. Finish the setup and that's it, you are done and now face unlock is enabled.
However there's a disadvantage that you'll have to swipe up the screen in order to unlock phone (that's in my case) if your detects automatically then congrats.
This can be done for any other phones too.
Hi everyone,
I don't know if this is a Tab A question, a Samsung question, an Android question, or a Marshmallow question.
I have an older tablet (SM-P350 with stylus) that I haven't been using a lot and I have forgotten the unlock pattern I was using. I am able to log in using the backup PIN, which I do remember, but I have to make several failed attempts to draw the pattern before I am prompted to enter the PIN. I'd like to start using the tablet more, but I don't want to have to do this every time.
I went to the security settings to change my login, but under "Screen lock type," it prompts me for my pattern, and after a failed attempt, it tells me I have to wait 45 minutes to try again! I am not given the option of entering the PIN. So I can't change the pattern OR change the screen lock type without knowing the old pattern! Does anyone know how I can use the backup PIN to do this?
As a last resort, I decided to do a factory reset. When I tried to do so from the menu, it prompted me for the security pattern!
I've tried twice to use the power and volume down buttons to reset, but I don't seem to be able to get to the recovery menu.
Now I can't log in to shut down and try again, because it's telling me I have to wait an hour!
And finally, one additional complicating factory is this: the tablet has been rooted -- not by me, but by the previous owner.
What can I do?
