hello
i forget the numeric screen lock of my cell .. is there any solution available to fix it ..

If you enter enough times it will request for your google password. Enter and get in. I think. Other option is to delete the settings database file in I forgot where.

Also, if you know how to use ADB you can break in via command prompt.
But I would just keep misentering it until it asks if you forgot your password and tells you to sign in with your Google account. And you should have your google password. Then it will unlock and reset the pin I think.

I forgot the password, so how can I reset it? I cant get to the menu
I reflashed the phone, but no success
I used the jig, which reseted the number of customs reflash to zero, but also no success
Wasn't there an option to reviver Forgot Password? Then it should ask for your email address and sent it to your email id, don't forget to turn on Wifi or Packet Data before doing.

Just fill it up with wrong passwords.

Password? Pincode? The 4-digit number? It's stored on your SIM card. You can't bypass it. You need to enter false ones a couple of times, then use your PUK code to recover. That's how it works over here at least..

hello everyone,
I'm having some troubles with the gallery as shown in the attached image.
I can't find how to disable that.. it messes everything up every time I am on wifi on my work network.
All photo syncs are already off in my gmail account settings.
I don't want to have the office pc there (it doesn't work anyway).. but if I don't turn wifi off it stays there and gallery doesnt show anything anymore.
I think rebooting the device will do.

yes.
I'm only trying to disable this "find nearby devices".
I cant find a way to stop/freeze the process.
Very simple to fix that, in gallery click left option button chose last option "view type" and choose divice only(middle option)

I know, I know.
I always do that.. problem is that everytime I close and re-open gallery it goes back to default (first option instead of middle).
I don't know why it doesn't stay on "device only". :crying:

Hey guys,
I forgot my pin. I'm sure i'm entering the right code but still not working. I tried these options:
1.entering the supposedly wrong pin many times, and hoping it would ask me to sign in with my gmail/google credentials. But it never did.
2.Lock screen byppass pro says: not compatible with device from Google play store.
Are there any options left, have important files on the phone.
Thanks
NAndroid backup
Cwm wipe data
Either try restore data only or manually search nandroid backup for your important files
Good practice is to keep important files on an sd card rather than internal

I really need the data. And dont really want to root the S3.
Wipe cache and dalvik might work.

So you want/need these files, you can't get to the recovery screen but you don't want to take the other steps to get your data..

It's not that bad, just do some reading beforehand. There's even a tool that will do it for you. The Q/A forum is also very inviting I may add
Used samsung dive and I'm not up and running.
Why don't you just connect your phone to the computer with usb and transfer the files on to your pc? Or will it not connect with pin lock on?

It's smarter than that. If you connect in USB with the screen locked securely, it doesn't activate until you unlock it at least once.
OP, is it definitely the phone PIN as opposed to the SIM PIN? Cause there's no reason it shouldn't prompt you to override the phone pin with your Google account info

call your phone from another one and answer it. Once you answer hit the menu button and go to settings and quickly add another email account...Yahoo, hotmail, whatever. Can't hang up until done and have to be connected to Wi-Fi. Once it's stored in accounts you can hang up. go to lockscreen and enter that account as user and/or password. Any account you have stored to phone password will work.
Ok. Here's what I found.
In other words I unlocked it using Samsung Dive.
For some reason it locked and didnt accept my pin.
1.if possible dont use pin because for some reason it simply wont give you the option of forgotten and unlock with your google account.
2.If locked with pin you cant access files via pc.
3.so activate samsung asap and stay away from pin. Maybe this is a bug?

Anyone know how to bypass the activation screen? I'm trying to root and unlock a DNA that won't be activated until Sunday.
Someone recommended forcing a reboot by holding the power button but the phone just boots back to the verizon activation screen.
Thanks in advance

On a somewhat similar note, does anyone know how to get google to sync and reinstall all your apps after a wipe when you bypass setting up the gmail account in the wizard. When I do this and then add my account when trying to sign into play store, for some reason the auto reinstall of my backed up apps does not happen.
I am wondering is anyone is getting text messages from 6250 if you have been getting the VZWNMN text and you have fixed it or no were I can find out how to fix this will someone let me know ty

I believe going to Backup Plus and deactivating it will work. If not you can try this:
Go to your my Verizon account, remove all email addresses from your vz backup feature in "manage email settings", hit apply. You will then get a text saying VZWUEP: DELETE. This confirms the texts should stop.

Thats the way I got mine to stop when I first found out how to shut it off. Maybe see if you can turn the entire feature off or try Googling and see if you can find a new way. I havent disabled it in quite a while.

I just downloaded a SMS blocker that seems to be working. I don't know very much about the guts of the device to go in and change a bunch of letters and numbers around just yet. So I done it the easy way. Thanks for the advice though.
I activated Verizons manage safe guards settings but when I tyres to add the 6250 # it would let me because it wasn't a ten digit #

The trick, although i know you will hate to do it. You actually have to call Verizon and have them remove backup completely from your account. I do so much flashing i would get this all the time. That seemed to turn out to be the only fix. The text is from the server asking they phone, Hey are you there and do you have time to update your backup file? When they turn it off at the server, it no longer sends the remote assistance request.
There is something that can be altered to stop it from happening. I'm going to try to get in touch with the dev who did it and see if he'll tell me his secret.
