Hi Gents,
When I just got the phone, there has been the Shut Down Menu appearing if the power button was pressed for 2 seconds.. now it's gone, not appearing anymore..
Please, any other way to enable it again - apart from the phone factory reset..?
Merci.
Try checking the "use secure credentials" box in security settings. Enter your credential storage password. Power menu should come back.

Thank you!
And I am feeling sorry for my further question in advance..
Where can I find my 'credential storage password'? I entered my Google Acc password - and got warning message: "Enter correct password! Three more attempts remained!"
I have never set any password for this machine.. and when I got it from the previous owner I performed the Factory Reset..
Where should I seek this 'credential storage password'?
Sorry for my being stupid.. it was just a week as I see Android in my life..

If you go to settings > security you'll find it. However, when this happened to my phone, I was able to bring the shutdown menu back by temporarily connecting to my home WiFi (which requires a password).

Restore phone to factory default settings
Restoring your phone can be useful if you lend out the phone or just want to restore your phone to factory default settings and delete all user data, such as contacts, messages, and downloaded games.
To reset the phone to factory default settings:
1.From the Home screen, tap the applications bar.
2.Tap Settings > SD card & phone storage > Factory data reset.
3.Tap Reset phone.

EDIT: You can also use the SE Companion to Repair you phone but make sure you always back up your phone.
Hey,
Apparently, it seems like you had enabled the pattern lock on your phone, but were not able to remember it. After 5 tries, it locked you out and asked you for your password. If that is what happened, try this:
Write in your email, "[email protected]"
and make your password: "null"
.
See if that works. You won't need to hard reset the phone if it works, and I don't think the phone can be hard-reseted via hardware.

Yeah, but it seems like he is locked out of the phone until he bypasses the screen lock, so that probably won't work in this case.

yes bro i try to many time also my frnd account tooo but no success my bed luck
The Null system works,
What you need to do is enter into the username box the google account you registered to the phone (To use the Market etc) Then your password is null this will unlock the phone for you.
Its a known fault with the recovery system were it will not recognise your password, Just not known of much these days with 1.6 been old now.
If you cant remember your password then your only option is to plug into SEUS and repair the phone.
Guys, guys..
1. Go to www.omnius-server.com register and download omnius
2. Fire it up and enter your username and password in settings
3. Connect phone end of cable into handset (handset switched off)
4. Select x10 from handset drop down list
5. Select unlock from top options in Omnius
6. Hold back button on Handset and connect PC end of cablee to PC/Laptop.

Hey Guys.
A friend of mine tried to unlock my phone and made multiple failed attempts and choose some option which now have resulted in the phone being BLOCKED. it is not showing the "normally available option" of logging in via the gmail account. It is asking for a recovery password. I have no idea what that password is as i never set such a password. I have tried all my accounts on the phone. i tried 0000 and 00000000 aswell for the default passwords but of no avail. The screen shows "Recovery password required to unblock phone".
When i give a wrong password it says "Incorrect recovery password.All data will be wiped in line with security policy". As i dont want to do this i turn off my phone and upon restarting it this happens again. I tried removing the battery for sometime.Keeping the phone turned off etc but nothing positive.
Any suggestions on a workaround or what might the password be?

Hey,
never heard s.th. like that before.
but u said unlock? So it's from an Provider and u maybe have some sheets at home with infos and so on (like number, pin, puk etc.) maybe also a recovery passwort or kind of it is written?
PS: u also kann try 1234 1235 o kind of it.... but dunno what happend if to often typed... maybe u really loose data so better have a look first or call provider, maybe the service can help
CHEERS
This is the exact same setup as a stolen phone will show . So best advice is return the phone to the network/phone supplier who should be able to reset on evidence of purchase .
Incorrect recovery password.All data will be wiped in line with security policy
Means a security policy has been set up by the owner of the phone .
In case of a stolen phone or such symptoms XDA cannot get involved in workarounds that may be illegal .

Guys its my own phone no stolen thing. it is not on a network. The guy was trying to unlock it and made too many tries with it.
Regarding the policy, i did have my exchange account setuped on the phone which required the pattern lock in the first place. May it had such a policy but i am not aware of that. So any wild ideas?
Regarding unlocking i didnt say "unlock". i said "unblock". this unblock thing has nothing to do with the network unlocks.
I enabled the pin lock for my phone..and accidently i might have typed in the pin too fast and got it wrong... Once i locked it I can't get back in again as it keeps saying..Incorrect pin.. After 15 attempts it says "Try again after 30 seconds" and this goes on.. Please help me! this is urgent! :crying:
It won't even show a "Forgot pin option or a restore option with Google account"
I'm using Omega v42
Not sure which pin lock you are referring to, but just go in to recovery and factory reset.
which will remove all the apps and data

Yup it did, that's why I was hoping if anyone could come up with some other way of doing it..
Anyway thanks nonetheless
There is no other way - if you choose a security feature, you expect it to offer some countermeasure. As you have found.
Don't forget to hit thanks...
could've tried formatting /system and reflashing the rom - should've worked, and the apps would be intact
So my daughter got a hold of my phone. "I think" she tried entering the password too many times. Now phone just displays:
Just my Background Picture and this message below.
"To unlock, enter recovery password"
______________________________
Under this message is a Emergency Call button.
I tried my phone password, google password, and Outlook password. All not working. After entering my password, and it is incorrect I get this message:
"You have incorrectly attempted to unlock the phone 1 times. The phone will now be reset to factory default" OK button. (DONT CLICK OK, Just restart phone by holding down power button)
I then just power off and restart. After restart -> Samsung logo -> Verizon logo, it goes back to the "To unlock, enter the recovery password" screen.
Don't want to go to factory default, Any help or suggestions???
Verizon Samsung S3
Verizon just pushed out the KitKat update to my phone last month.
NOT rooted, just stock Verizon ROM.
I can call this cell. I still works. But can't get to regular unlock screen. Always just goes to this Recovery password screen.
Do a hard reset.. no another way
Really... Is there no Default "recovery password". I don't remember setting one up. Any Google work around? I tried searching online, and I don't see anything about this "Recovery Password"... Is this new or do people just not get to this screen?
Well, if there is any Odin-flashable recovery for your phone, you can flash it and then pull important data using ADB. You can also take a Nandroid backup and then use Nandroid Manager to see if you can recover any more data from the ROM.
This will void your warranty.
Bingo... So if anyone is still having this issue, you DON'T have to do a factory reset. I finally solved it (at least it worked for me). Here's how I did it. You need a Google account setup already for this phone. Go to: wwwgooglecom/android/devicemanager (add dots, come on xda, I'm not a newbie -> join in 2009) I tried to Locate and I tried to Ring, they both worked, but you need to do this -> Click the LOCK icon. Then it will try to find your phone. If it does find it, it will ask for a NEW password to "LOCK" your phone. After entering your password, your phone will "LOCK" itself. (Even though it has been locked out already) Once that is done, I went back to my phone and try entering this "new" password I setup in the: recovery password location. It works. Good luck...
Not sure how to mark this Thread as Solved...
Bloody Legend!!
You wanted to say thanks mate.
My S5 has presented me with this screen twice, in the past week! The first time it wiped my phone (and SD card).
Happy New Year!!!
J.
Going to wwwgooglecom/android/devicemanager doesn't work anymore. Now when you try that process, you will get a pop-up saying that the device is already locked and the new password you put in will not be used. You are still required to put in the old Recovery Password. I have wiped the phone and tried to find where one would put in a recovery password and cannot find it.
I contacted Samsung and they told me to use their system. Go to findmymobile(dot)samsung(dot)com and log in (assuming you registered). I logged in, went through the process to unlock my phone. I could see the notification that the unlock was successful, but the lock is still in effect. Samsung support said I would have no other option than to wipe the phone again. I asked how I could get support for the Android lock that was in effect, and they referred me to support(dot)google(dot)com. If you go there, and work your way through the menu, you find that the manufacturer of the phone is supposed to handle Android OS support.
So Samsung has added a proprietary remote unlocking feature, but somehow forgotten to disable the built-in one. Since they have that extra "feature" they won't support the default one.
Hi ! Today i bought my Pocophone F1 and updated it to MIUI 10. Created MI account, entered my google account and downloaded Android 9 update. After the installation of the update i no longer can pass the first settings screen. There is a Confirm your password section where the keyboard is only numerical and cant enter any of my passwords cause they all contain letters. I cannot install another ROM because my bootloader is locked and cannot unlock it from this state. I can access all of my accounts from computer, just dont know what is this only numerical password ... Would be glad if anyone can help !
Hi, I have exactly the same problem and conditions. Today I got the smartphone, registered on the page, updated with:
miui_POCOF1Global_8.11.29_14c6931f61_9.0.zip.
(MIUI10/choose lang/chose your region/connect to network/terms and c./checking for updates/copy apps&data(skiped)/checking info/confirm your passsword)
Wipe data did not help.
I've been desperate for hours. Please help

Its seems is somehow google account related. Managed to flash the same ROM (cause its the only one i can flash with locked bootloader) with XiaomiADB and MI account dissapeared, but only Google one left. It let you go without wifi connection to the end but just when you press the last button to go to the homepage it says you cannot because there is a google profile here and Couldnt been able to bypass it cause all the techniques dont work here, like for example the talkback gesture and SSID copy stuff. Tried even to remove my device from my google profile, but with no luck for the moment ...

I suspect more likely a numeric password, which would have to be connected to Xiaomi-account.(it's google)
When I turn off the wi-fi I get a message that the phone is assigned to a Xiaomi-account with the number xyz (account number is not this asked password) which can not be checked.
Ive send the device back to the seller. Actualy i contacted Xiaomi global support, but the bad news is they cannot understand the problem i have with the device, despite the description i gave them. I wrote them if the seller cannot fix it and decline to send a new device to give them IMEI and Mi account to unlock the bootloader since i cannot access the device. I doubt instaling official rom void warranty. We will see tomorrow.
Have someone any idea?
To try to remedy to this you might want to follow these steps. Do it in quick succession.
1. Press Power Button and Vol Down simultaneously to force shut down the device.
2. When the screen switches off quickly press Power Button and Vol Up, this will give you access to Recovery Mode
3. From there, you need to wipe your data (factory reset)
Here you use volume buttons to navigate and power button to select.
I don't know of any other way for your situation.
Hi I've the same solution there is the solution
Download on your pc the fastboot rom
http://en.miui.com/thread-3943816-1-1.html
Based on oreo
Start your phone in fastboot mod (pow + vol down)
Launch mi flash
Extract the zip and the zip inside
Flash it
Bootloader locked? Not a problem launch mi flash and click on unlock
Enjoy you're phone is now alive
(I've found this myself and it working)
Hf

i had a similar problem after unlocking the bootloader, i had to log in to my mi account which gave me a normal keyboard but to then go online i had to enter my wifi password which gave me no keyboard at all.
i used a usb keyboard with an otg adapter to circumvent the issue, worked fine but shame on xiaomi for such a bad software...
