Dear People,
I forgot my unlock pattern for my Xperia X10 Mini pro, and i have 20 times insert a wrong pattern. Now my cellphone locked me out, and the only options are:
-Answer a secret quesation, but i dont no the answer.
-Insert my gmail account credentails. I try it this option but it does not work either.
When i plug my xperia in my computer (Windows 7 64 Bit, Pc Companion installed) it only says:
-New hardware found: unknown device.
I can't select usb-debugging option in my phone. I installed this driver:
developer.sonymobile.com/wportal/devworld/downloads/download/dw-x10minidrivers?cc=gb&lc=en
But it still does not work.
Can somebody help me?
Sorry for my bad english i come from Holland.
If you have unlock your bootloader your solution its flashing with flashtool naa kernel and backup your data and then reinstall from scratch your rom.
If not and nothing works you have to reinstall a complete rom with flashtool and loose all you have in the phone

Try with omnius, it has lock reset... can't remember if it's a paid feature.
if you are rooted with a cutom recovery you could try to flash an old backup. make a nandroid first just incase you remember the pw to your secret q

Hi!
I'm sorry if I posted in the wrong topic.
Yesterday I used this: (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1320350) to root my SE Xperia Mini Pro.
The rooting process was ok and afterwards the phone was rooted.
Then I wanted to connect the phone to my PC, but
- it was not recognized (the phone by the [any] PC) in media transfer mode
- there was no lock screen (except before SIM unlocking on start)
- can't receive or make calls (incoming and outgoing calls are "Disabled" and it can't be changed [asks for password, but says "Network or SIM card error"]), I tried another phone and calls work.
I used the unrooting script, but nothing changed.
Then I downloaded a firmware I found on this forum (SE FW: 4.0.A.2.368), the media transfer mode and the lock screen worked, but not the calls. After that I applied the T-Mobile 2.3.4 software from my PC, but it's still the same.
Could anyone please tell me what I have to do?
Thanks in advance.
I think flashing a firmware will restore a rooted phone to his original state...
Maybe it has something to do with unlocking the boot loader?

My experience is that,
no matter how you mess with your SK17
I.e. bad boot loader, unplug while flashing, Relock bootloader fail unbootable bootloader etc etc,
Wotan Server brings everything work again.
Run Wotan Server, press the Volume down button (or Up i forgot), connect the USB cable, follow step by step to flash the newest version firmware.
And there you go.
Then root your phone again.
Thats what I did for many times. No panic. Seems our phone would never brick. LOL

Hello guys,
after looking here a lot for improving my x10 (successfully, I love fxp ), I have my first problem, and it is a strange one.
I live in France, and a new carrier made very cool prices, so I decided to change carrier. But my previous carrier provider made its possible to not unsimlock my x10, so, when I went in holidays in Tunisia, I went to a shop where they are known to unlock phones, and they unsimlocked it, but they put an official 2.1 rom, but I couldn't go from cyanogen to stock 2.1... So I decided to install fxp.
I rooted the phone with flashtool, and tried to flash the phone, but it was stuck on se logo, so I used pc companion to install stock gingerbread, it installed. But when I power it on, it's not 2.3, it's still 2.1 ! I don't know what these tunisian did, but they ****ed up my phone T_T
when I start it with my sim, I can enter my pin code, and I only have the blue wallpaper of 2.1 and the top bar. I can't access to anything, the three buttons do not work (except when I put the usb cable, I can use the return button to quit the "charge or connect" menu and minimize the bar when it is fullscreen).
When I don't put the sim, I have the configuration menu, but when I press proceed, it says me to insert a sim card and reset, I can't do anything at this state.
Did anyone have the problem ?

If those Tunisians know something, they are probably here on xda-developers forum ..
You have a thread for sim unlocking, and I think that there is a way to check if your phone is unlocked properly via s1tool or is it possible to unlock it..Go HERE
Thanks, for the simlock soft.
But how can I make it to boot properly (ie having acces to menus, icons and all)
Well, I tried s1tool, and it says that it is still locked, but I don't understand, I was able before trying the update to call with the new carrier oO
PS : is there a way to root/flash without enabling debugging ?
I do not know if I can post this, but I managed to do here.

Well, HERE you can find everything you want for unlocking, downgrading, rooting..(a lot of links)..
Just take it easy and don't rush..It's a simple process, you just have to understand and follow everything they say..
Cheers
Well, I tried again to backup the stock rom with pc copanion, and it worked, and now it is unsimlocked xD
i have a xperia pro android 4.04,,, and i forgotten its screen pattern and now it is asking for the google account. and after entering google account it says it is invailid.. is there any procedure.. to unlock the phone.. help would be highly appereciated..thanks
The Google account way has always worked for me even without an internet connection. Try to remember your pattern. If you absolutely cannot remember it and the Google account way isn't working at all, I think your only option is to restore it to factory settings in the bootloader or use one of the tools in your phone's forum to restore to stock. Seems to me that you're talking about the stock ICS version for your phone. If you're already rooted, have an unlocked bootloader and custom recovery installed then you can just full wipe your phone and re-flash your ROM, but I don't think you've done all that.
Hello , i have a problem , i forgot the pattern and the Gmail too , my device is running original lollipop , i tried to boot into boot loader but i failed , i have the original box for it , can anyone help me ?
If this device is yours, then use option to help restore password for Gmail if you forgot.
Then use it for unlock device.
But if the device is not connected to the internet, you don't have way to change patern.
Also is option, if connect switched off phone to Pc Companion or Xperia Companion, then you will have way to install new software to the phone.
Don't wait program to recognize your phone, just follow the steps in the programs.
Another way is flash stock ftf firmware with Flashtool.
thank you very much , i changed my gmail password by security questions .
Hi at all!
After yesterdays update over WiFi (don't know which exactly, but I think it's MiUI8 6.9.8) my Redmi Note 3 (Qualcomm, 32GB) wouldn't let me unlock the device neither with fingerprint nor pattern. Before I updated it was normally unlocking. Normally I use fingerprint, so at first I thought i forgot the pattern, but after several attempts the phone went into lock mode. I am 99% sure I know the right pattern, but it won't unlock.
I already read this guide: http://en.miui.com/thread-5684-1-1.html and tried this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMAPEhH5z-8
But I have still several problems:
- USB debugging not enabled
- no recovery installed
- no root or open bootloader or anything like that
- no backup of all photos, which are on the phone itself and not on the SD card (I just came back from holidays)
- no cloud or similar backup
- Mi Pc Suite does not detect phone
- Google Device Manager states "Since Google has verified that a screen lock is already set, the password that you entered won't be needed." if I try the send a new lockscreen.
This method (with flash afterwards) could help me, I guess, but I still would loose everything: http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/guide-reboot-to-edl-mode-fastboot-test-t3398718
I have absolutely no idea how i can unlock my phone without loosing any data (especially the photos).
Please if anyone has an Idea, help me!
Same happened to me so I restored my backup, once the restore had finished I removed the finger print and pin number (I had read about this on the xiaomi Forum). Then did the update again and this time it was OK
sounds easy, how did you restore the backup?
Before restoring any backup, I suggest you hard restart your phone. long press the power button.
but if I make a Hard Reset I will loss everything on the phone.
Is there maybe a possibility to insert some sort of file or command via EDL mode, that USB debbuging will be enabled? http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/guide-reboot-to-edl-mode-fastboot-test-t3398718
No not the hard reset. I was talking about hard restart. The phone will just restart.
ahh I see, sorry my fault.
But nonetheless I din't made any backup ever with this phone.
same problem here
my phone redmi note 3(qualcomm 32gb) is also locked just yesterday ! it shows try again after 120 minutes and after the time completed it shows pattern and it will be locked again and shows the same dialouge after trying my correct password ! actually we shoud get forgot password option behind the emergency option ! please do give a reply to me if you find any solution it means a lot to me !
Well I am afraid I can't help you either... after searching for 2 days I found no solution and flashed my phone. so all data was lost...
