It's been so long since I used my password that I forgot it. Thankfully, I have modded phone, so I can still get in via fingerprint, even after reboot. Anybody know a way to reset the password without factory reset?

I guess I found a bug, and it really irritated the hell out of me.
First of all, I had a rooted phone with lagfix, but wanted to update my phone to latest software version. I couldn't do this without restoring files with Odin, then resetting the phone.
Prior to the reset, I had it connected with my company's exchange server, which required a password when you restarted the phone, or after 12 hours of it being on.
AFTER the reset, the password prompt was there, but no password worked!
So to save anyone any hassle in the future: Just enter 10 wrong passwords and let it wipe the data. It'll come back afterward.
GOD WHAT A PIECE OF SH*T
Original OTA Lollipp Update.
Not rooted.
I Forfot my sweep lockscreen, i tryed ate 105 error password, and no appears type google password ¬¬.
Any way to hard reset? I dont mind lose all my data, just need use the phone.
UPDATE:
I already did hard reset.
Thanks anyway.
I just installed cm12 and after rebooting it asks for a password, which I never set, but it doesn't matter what password I enter it states that the password is correct but the data is corrupted. Then it states it needs to do a factory reset. It does the reset and does the same thing asking for a password. Etc. I tried rastapop and didn't have any problems with asking for a password. Has anyone else had this problem. Seems weird to me.
Edit I restored rastapop and did the same thing asking for a password
I have a S7 that had a factory reset done on it via the recovery and when you try to setup and new account on it, it says the system has been reset and wants the old login info. It's a work phone from someone that no longer works here so it needs to be reset so a new employee can use it. Any way to do a factory reset so I can put a new user on it?

Been working on this for a while now, but can't figure out how to get around it.
The phone is currently runing a custom 8.1.1 ROM and I have TWRP 3.2.0.0 installed.
I've done full wipes and factory resets, but the phone never seems to fully reset. I am fine with losing everything on the phone. I just want it 100% clean so I can sell it, which of course includes getting rid of the password on TWRP so the next user can mess around in there.
I have access to TWRP, the password is mine. But I can't seem to remove it, and every time I wipe and reset the phone it still asks me for my old device password with the owner message present as well.
I have also tried to format data, but it is unable to mount the data partition it seems, which I am guessing is due to encryption.
What's my fastest way to a reset and clean phone? I'm getting desperate here since I'm running out of time.
Edit: Through no change in process of my own, it suddenly completely reset. Now I'm more curious as to why.. Can anyone explain so I can avoid this issue in the future?
for me, the only way is to flash the full factory image from the Google site
First clear data and than flash software
