Assuming you are using one of the old Venusaur/Ivysaur ROMs, then not unless you have USB Storage and/or USB Debugging Mode already turned on and can connect with a USB and copy out the files you want. You might be able to mount the storage volumes from recovery and mount them and access them via PC
Don't know pattern lock, don't know email/password, and if USB debugging is disabled and none of the above work, you might be out of luck and will just have to factory default from recovery.
Thanks for reply I just found another way to solve this problem. Thanks anyways.

Well, how did you solve the problem?
This rom has the option to open the setting in the upper left corner. When I saw that option I went to security and then clean all credentials and that's it. Phone screen unlocked. In this times it was good but i think this is bug and very insecure cuz anyone could see all my info.

I changed the lock screen code on my phone and need help to recover or reset it any help would be appreciated its the samsung galaxy 3 sph-l710 thanks in advance!
I think after several failed attempts it will prompt you to input your Gmail account. Let me test for you and see if it does.
Edit: And that was a resounding failure on my part. I'm not sure what you can do besides maybe doing a factory reset through Odin? This is my first Samsung phone so I'm not familiar with Odin yet.

I don't think a pin code security will ask for gmail after a few failures like the pattern security will, if you have a nandroid, then maybe restore. I don't think security settings will stick across nandroids yet.

thanks you your input. i've tried over 50 x's lol and it has yet to prompt me for my e-mail. and the phone is still new to me and i have not rooted yet. so no nandroid for me. im on the phone with sprint as i type this. I will report back my results for others to learn from my mistake
Can't you still access your recovery to perform a factory reset? Turn the phone off, then hold vol up, home, and power until the Samsung screen flickers, and when your stock recovery opens there should be an option for factory reset. If not just choose reboot to system. You'll have to set everything back up but at least you'll be able to access your phone again.

In my personal experience with my S3. I had to enter recovery mode using key presses and do a factory data reset to restore functionality of the phone. If you could tell is which phone you have we may be able to point you in the right direction.
Hope this helps if it does :good:
Thanks
I changed the lock screen password on my device after entering a new one when encrypting the SD card. Sadly, I forgot where I put the note with the new password and I have locked myself out of the phone.
I have tried everything I know to get to some type of back door, but without any success. And there doesn't seem to be any info out there on how to get past the lock screen without doing a factory reset. Does anyone know of a way or a tool I can find which can get me past the lock screen? I currently have the a rooted SCH-i605 running 4.3, which I removed all the bloatware and rogue apps from, and I would hate to have to start all over again. But unfortunately, the only thing I can think of to so is to wipe it clean and start from scratch..
If anyone has been through this and knows a tool or a work around to my issue, please let me know ASAP!
Thanks
I think factory reset is your only option if you can't remember the password. If there was a work around, encrypting the phone would be a worthless feature.
Sorry mate,

Rooted and running 4.2 if my memory serves me well.
I broke the screen on this one and it had been out of commission for a while before being repaired.
Did not set same screen unlock PIN on my interim replacement phone, forgot the RAZR's PIN by the time I repaired it.
Need to unlock it and I do not believe USB Debugging was or is turned on.
I did activate it hoping the "forgot your password" gmail prompt would appear. No dice.
I need information off this one and unlocking it via the clean wipe methods is not an option.
Can anyone help? I'm near Nashville and would gladly pay for assistance.
Should the RAZR give the "forgot password" prompt, if activated, and after X number of failed attempts to enter the PIN screen lock? If so, how many attempts should make that happen?
If not, and mine didn't after many failed attempts, is there any other boot method or means to turn this device on that will allow me to go into it and wipe out or change the PIN screen lock?
If so, should Minimal ADB and fast boot work?
Am I the only one that finds these "confirm I'm not a robot" "recaptcha" images nearly impossible? I'm looking at them on a 23" HD screen too. The audio for them, seriously???
Is there any way to get those removed? Countless attempts failed and just to make one post took over ten minutes once it was composed. These are extraordinarily difficult. Please?

Will the RAZR not give the "forgot password" option, if activated, that allows you to bypass the PIN screen and unlock it via gmail?
Wiping it isn't an option, I need the information on it much more than I need the old phone.
Is there any other way?
What is up with these recaptcha images? Did I somehow mess up creating an account by not using G+ or something? Those things are brutal.

really want to avoid that… ill ring samsung today and see if they can help… ugh hope they are competent and don't waste more of my time!
They wont advise turning on usb debugging
ha! they went a step further to dismiss the option even exists… ugh.. should have stuck with apple, major problems if a consumer that has had an android device for 2 weeks and knows more about it than the 'Samsung Expert'
Called them on the phone too, said it was working and he had no idea why it wasn't on mine. that was literally it…

I just had the same issue.
Turns out the problem is having a Knox container - USB debugging was permanently disabled until I removed MyKnox from my phone, so it would appear the two are mutually exclusive.

Reset my device, which allowed me to switch on USB debugging, but noticed I lost it shortly after setting up Knox again. Removing it brought it back, so I guess that this is working as designed.

ahh ok.. funnily enough there was a guy working for samsung in an EE shop (oxford street, london) and he was super puzzled. he was showing me on his demo phones (which he explained about 15 times that it was a fake phone and not a real one, took me about 20mins to figure out what he was saying. its basically a phone without the calling features..).
Forget Password
Hi guys, it is possible to turn on debugging mode if the phone is blocked? i need some audio records from my s6 edge but i forget my password. and i don't want to do the hard reset because i really need the files... or if y do hard reset if i use dr.fone or something else it is a way to recover the deleted files?
usb debugging popup screen
I can activate USB debugging but i won't get the popup screen when I plugin mine usb cable, the Phone connects to the laptop. I can get files from the Phone to the laptop and from the laptop to the Phone but that's it
