Thank you for your answers (smg67 very funny:laugh: my little daughter was playing with my phone and locked it),
i mean my contacts and photos from phone memory. I can't remember registration email, i've tried to call from other phone to change email and i've tried with all sony ericsson software all nothing. All i want is to save my contacts and photos from memory by, somehow, get access to phone memory, or bypass, delete mazelock from startup.
Thank you

Do you have xrecovery installed? If yes, I'll upload a flashable zip to fix your problem. If no... well, that's a bit tricky... you'll have to use adb and navigate to the data/system directory, where you have to delete all *.key files. If you want, I'll upload a complete tutorial.

LOL... hope you manage to re-open it :cyclops:
I never fully understood my friends and family letting their children play with their phones. They then also think other peoples phones are toys, and I don't let any child play with my phone, and so the child start to cry when I take my phone from them, and the parrents look at me as I was an evil person.

Hahaha, you are evil... . Kudos to his little girl though, for finding the options to secure the phone, she'll go far

Do you have adb installed? Are you using windows or linux?
On linux, it is really easy to install adb.
Open a terminal window and type
adb (Enter)
It will say that adb is not currently installed. Copy and paste the line starting with 'sudo' and press enter. It will prompt you to type in your password and then press enter. Once everything is installed, connect your turned on phone to the pc (you don't have to be logged into your phone). Then you'll have to type a couple of lines of code:
Code:
adb devices (Enter)
adb shell (Enter)
cd data/system (Enter)
rm *.key (Enter)
If everything works out, you'll only have to disconnect and reboot your phone. The maze lock will probably still show up, but you can draw whatever you want to log in.
As for windows, I'll make a tutorial tomorrow, as I'll have to do some research myself.
(General question to everyone: Adb debugging is not needed to do this, right? Because if it is, it'll have to be selected in settings-apps-development and I don't think you can do that without getting into your phone...)

I will try today with linux and the command you gave me. (i also have android 4.2 installed on a netbook if it easier with android)
EDIT: No luck, adb can't recognize phone connected with usb as a device, probably phone usb state must to be change to something. Now when i connect the phone it appears on my computer those two devices "SEMC Mass Storage" and "SEMC CD-ROM" which i don't have access.

Please Post a complete error Report...

in fact, to unlock your locked phone, you need to have USB debugging enabled (that you can't enable now that it is locked...)
if enabled, you can use ADB to unlock it, if not i don't think it could be easily done...
another tuto is here
but i don't think it will work better than what Kilroy. said....

Sorry, matmutant is absolutely right. Hmmm... @matmutant: Do you know how SEUS accesses the phone? You don't need adb debugging enabled for that, if I remember correctly.

i don't know, but what is sure is that all data will be lost if recovering using SEUS...
maybe ADB can force mount /system when the device is in flashmod...
as you can see, i'm not the only one saying it's hard/impossible to bypass without USB debugging :

What If I Didn’t Have USB Debugging Enabled?
I hate to say it but you are more or less at the end of the road.
A factory reset is probably your only option.

note that it also can be done when booted on recovery, but that means there is one installed...

so there is no way to get my files back?

Try running the adb command while your phone is connected in Flashmode. If that doesn't work, I' m afraid there is no way.
NOTE: when connecting your phone to your PC in flashmode, you'll have to be quick with typing the commands, otherwise it will just start normally.
