How do I go about unlocking my daughters phone she can't remember the password. It's a Asus zenphone
If you linked it with google account try that, google will verify it after some unsuccessful wrong password attempts, lastly your option is hard reset.

I have a Nexus 7 tablet that I haven't used in a while and I don't remember the pattern lock.
The problem is there's no backup password prompt, and it never asks for my google login no matter how many attempts I make. The device is online. It just says You entered the incorrect pattern 40 times. Try again in 30 seconds.
I tried the android device manager and locked the device with an alternate password but tells me that since there is a screen password set they won't use the password I just entered... which is unhelpful. Any other ideas short of a factory reset?
Hi everyone, My friend has Oneplus X which he was using. During first time setup, I think he enabled device protection feature.
Due to some reason, he did factory reset on his Oneplus X, and also changed his Google account password and his recovery phone number
After factory reset when tried to configure his Google account, it gives error " Please sign in using one of the owners account for this device"
We are able to login his google account on computer,
We also tried to for wipe data/factory reset through recovery
Read on some websites that Google account is locked for 72 hours if we do factory reset and change password. Its been 5 days but still cant configure the google account on the phone
Please help as the phone has become useless

Asus zenfone GO
it's been years since the last time i touch my Redmi 3, i forgot the password, so i just factory reset it with my twrp.
but i need to login with old email to verify my phone, i forgot which email, because i tried every email that i can remember i ever login into this phone but got denied.
i tried to full wipe and replace rom, but it's still the same prompt that pop up, Insert email to verify the phone. is there anyway to bypass this?
as far as i know, this feature is for miui Roms. flash a custom Rom and you never see this alarm again.
Pocophone F1
security set to fingerprint and alphanumeric password.
every 3 days the fingerprint stops working and asks for password as a default security feature.
Last night it asked for password as its been 3 days since last used password. I am certain the password is correct and signed in several times before with it. I suspect there might have been a system update in the last 3 days. Now it keeps saying password is incorrect.
Forgot password option only allows erasing data and back to factory default.
Any help would be much appreciated.

if you have TWRP or any other encryption supporting custom recovery, reboot to recovery and then check what it asks for.
called xiaomi uk
I didn't root the phone or have custom recovery installed unfortunately.
called xiaomi uk customer support, they were saying the phone should give the option to reset the password via the google account but it isn't giving this option.
the phone is definitely connected to my google account. can see it there and was able to locate it and ring it from the computer browser.

I didn't install those unfortunately.
Did you associate your phone to mi account? She this happen to my girlfriend's phone and saw a bunch of cases while looking for a solution. Couldn't find a way around factory resetting.
I ended up doing the factory reset. I am sure it's a Xiaomi software issue because when I was initiating the phone again, when you set up fingerprint it gives this message:
"Remember your lock screen password. If you forget it, you'll have to erase all data on your device, including photos and contacts, and then set a new one"
This is exactly what I ended up doing other than the fact that it wouldn't accept the correct password. There is ways around it if you rooted your phone before this happened but in my case there was no quick solution.
Xiaomi should allow the password reset via Google account like other android phones.
Lucky I did have some backup via Google so wasn't a total disaster.
this is really bad. Im in this situation and i don want to erase my files as i didnt back up or used cloud. since yesterday looking for work around this screen lock issue, im using pocophone f1.
