Maybe try running the ruu to reset it.
i have a htc evo 4g that was given to me. but it had a pattern lock on it. i called my friend that gave it to me and tried to get the pattern from him. but he couldnt remember it either bc after the power button broke on it it got another phone.
is there a program that i can use to hard reset the phone?
So I'm not sure if you are referring to the OG Evo, or the Evo LTE. Either way, the pattern passwords have alternative to unlock them. If you fail about 5-10 times (maybe more...I haven't tested it lately), it will prompt you for your email and password. Ask your friend about his default email, and possibly let him enter the information himself if he wants his info to remain private.
You can always plug it in to a PC that has ADB installed and try rebooting to either the bootloader or recovery. Not sure if that will work with the screen lock on but it's worth a shot.

he has told me he doesnt remember his email or his password. he said he has changed emails multiple times due to being hacked. :/
im downloading sdk and adb on my laptop now. and going to attempt to reset that way.
-edit..
i cant get adb to recognize the phone.. there has to be a way to get this to work.
Go into fastboot, then recovery. Do a factory reset, and flash a ROM.

I just realized that. Adb doesn't see your phone? Try connecting through wifi. That's how I usually do it. There's an app
Edit: make sure you've enabled network ADB in developer settings

thats my problem the phone is password locked and i have no email. bc my friend gave it to me and he forgot his email for this phone.
so i cant get past the lock screen. i know this can be done without a power button, ive seen it done before. but i cant remember how to do it. soon as i can get it factory reset i can handle the no power button problem.

Right, sorry, keeping forgetting. What exactly is wrong with the power button? And what error are you seeing with ADB?

the button has completely broken off of the mother board. i have the button, which i might have to fix to get anything done im guessing.
If the phone every shuts down completely from lack of battery, how will you turn it on then? Also, I guess repair isn't an option? Eg warranty and repair center.
Can't your friend recover the email account?

I'm pretty sure he plugs it into the charger then it turns on automatically I'm assuming

Yes I can get the phone to boot up. But nothing pasted the lock screen. I think my only option would be take it to the local phone repair store. And my friend has changed email so many times due to being hacked he can't remember his email when he had the evo.

How do you still get it to boot if it is off/dies?
And by the way, do you have access to a Linux computer? Linux has absolutely no problem recognizing Android (Linux based). Also, I'm not 100% sure if you will get any computer to recognize it via ADB without having USB debugging checked off in Developer Options.

Titanium Backup (ROOT) has a boot to recovery option, that should give you access to adb and/or fastboot.
He can't get past the lock screen password. Read the OP. Sorry to be too blunt.

If it's on the lock screen, can you get it on any wlan? Unsecured that it automatically connects to? If so, you can install apps via your browser in Google play. Given that the Google account on the phone is accessible from the browser.. That could open doors...

That won't work either. To install apps from the browser, the OP will have to be signed in from the former user's email that is registered with the phone. However, the owner no longer remembers which email is linked to the phone.

thanks everyone for your help. I fixed it

I am sure I have some kind of software issue that is embedded into the os somewhere. I have tried multiple factory wipes and the Wi-Fi will work for a few minutes then go to error when running on. I have a rooted photon running 2.3.5. Is it possible I can copy my wife's factory non-rooted photon recovery files to mine? Or can I run a custom recovery to fix whatever conflict I seem to be having?

If this is just happening at home try resetting your router.
It's happened to me and that fixed it.

Its not a router issue. I'm not as tech savvy as I was 15 years ago but I'm not a total dummy. When turning “On" Wi-Fi it shows error, it will not enable the radio. I've searched the forums and Google tried the FUMO.apk fix for the botched update. Tried numerous Wi-Fi fixers but they seem to only "fix" connection issues rather than radio issues. I upgraded to this phone so I don't mind flashing anything that may work on the photon. Just hoping to get pointed in the right direction.

Depending on your phone one of these posts might help.
2.3.5 locked is tricky.

My wifi doesn't work either - it just says Wi-Fi: error. I'm on MOFv2.0ish, not in the US, and I expected these problems to be taken care of either in the OTA or in the rooted ROM.
Can anyone recommend a way to get back to 2.3.4, keeping the unlocked bootloader and bypassing Sprint activation? I don't think it would be a good idea to install the bone-stock OS since it may want to do a Sprint activation on first boot.
I've also tried CM10.1 and the GSM didn't work. Any recommendations would be appreciated. If only the wifi worked this ROM would be great.
My mothers phone is email locked and she does not know her password. It is a sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE. When i press the unlock screen, it would ask for a gmail and password. She does not know her password. The phone is stuck. The only problem with hard resetting the phone is that i need all the information/apps and data that is stored in the phone.
Is there anyway i can bypass or break the code by using a software? The phone has orginal stock recovery and rom. Please help me, any sugggestions would be greatley appreciated.

Not much you can do if she has forgotten her password, particularly since the phone is stock.

If she created a gmail account with a secondary email address, go on gmail and have them email you your password. Create a new password, then use that to log-in on the phone.
Any time I see these posts, I now think of that retard that stole whoever's phone, and was trying to get past their password.
