[Q] Help With locked phone Forgotten Password - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys I need help with my brothers Samsung Galaxy S3 (international version).
The problem is he set a password, not pattern, and he forgot it next morning.
Is there any solution other then Factory Resetting the phone? I've already tried ADB solutions but it seems he offed USB Debugging :silly::crying:
Is it possible to, enable USB debugging through CWM, enable ADB connections through CWM, or enable USB Mounting through CWM?
Please Help with a reasonable solution.

There is no other way than Factory reset which will wipe all your data. You didn't even search I prosume. Google >> Galaxy s3 forgotten password << Read few resaults and You will get know... Don't be lazy P
And again , the only way is Reset through Recovery... You have a wise brother xD

Don't know if it still does this but you could unlock them with your gmail login and password
Basically you keep entering your password until you get a message on the screen that says you have incorrectly entered your password x number of times or something similar. At this point you used to get an option saying forgotten password, tap that then you enter your gmail account and gmail password which would unlock the phone.

Thank you guys for trying to help, I already unlocked the phone with the Emergency Call trick.

It's probably sim locked.
Try to start the phone without sim, root the phone and try a sim unlocker from Play Store.
Can be a solution.

Solved,
The problem was, I installed my Wife E-mail Address to the phone and one of the hasi and exchange Security Role the force the Lock Policy, so when I the key was entered 5 times Wrong, the Device was locked and I needed the recovery key from the OWA (Outlook web Access).
Any way the Idea of Data Wipe Didn't work, The Only Solution that fixed the problem was installing a Stock Rom using Odin and then Rebuild all my customizations again
This is not a questions forum, stop posting crap in wrong place people.
Im the owner. Never had a problem since this is a unlocked device.
Installed Nameless Rom and after rolling back to GB got this issue.
Just Flash CWM for your Rom. This worked for me.
Thanks very much for necroing a 2yr old thread :-/ No, really. Thanks. A lot.

You should be able to do a factory reset! Go to "emergency call", type *#*#7378423#*#* -> Customization settings -> reset customization. Should work
If you enter the wrong password enough times it will give you the option to unlock with your Gmail credentials

D: BAD RESOLUTION help, id like tofactory reset but cant get into phone!!!

hi guys, ive soft rooted my galaxy ace 4, I thn downloaded rom toolbox lite then found a cool button that said pixel density then I put tht up to max thinking it would be a good idea but now I cant get into my phone and would like to either factory reset or just change that setting back somehow, I'm a somewhat noob with basic root and device knowledge so please excuse me if I do not comprehend, my device powers on fine and everthing its when it fully on that I get a notification saying, "unfortunately com.android.systemui has stopped, and my resolution is way too big, is there an easy way to factory reset even though I cant get into the phone to change setting, it connects to my pc but adb says the device is unauthorized see dialog box, so I'm out of ideas, if someone can help before 11th august (I'm going on holiday) then that would be amazing!
thanks everyone!
btw I don't have twrp or cwm cuz I didn't install them I'm dumb ik,
also if there is a way to factory reset easily from pc or anything, like if I hold the power and volume it should put me in bootloader but it says warning installing a custom rom could be dangerous don't remove target.
please help
thank you
You can install twrp or cwm with odin and from there do a Factory Reset. I don't have the files. But you can search them.
Sorry if i didn't help.
