Hi,
i got a S3 9300 from my customer. His young child forgotten his unlock code.
1. Over google is not possible to resend the unlock code, cause it was not activated, and i cant activate it because i cant unlock the phone
2. I want to make a backup from the phone, but i have to unlock it, but without the unlock code.... ):
I used to get root, doing it with Odin and SuperUser Mod from clockwork. Odin says pass, but nothing changed.
Maybe the phone has not activated USB-Debugging.
Tested with ADB, but i dont have root rights (su).
What can i do? I know that i can do factory reset, but all data are gone after that ):
A factory reset won't delete the internal memory. Only apps, settings and contacts will be deleted.
If he had his google account sync'ed, there won't be any problem.
If this way is possible, then just boot into recovery mode and erase user all data .
You can still delete the lock screen but you have to flash a custom recovery.
Flash Philz recovery with Odin (Put the TAR in the PDA) http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/orig-development/i93xx-philz-touch-t2002953
Then, enter recovery and connect to the usb. After 15-20 seconds the ADB will be enabled (You'll hear the windows sound that tells that a new USB device has connected) and you willl be able to do anything through ADB
With this recovery you don't even need to be rooted to access the system files.
Now remove lockscreen pattern or password and delete Android settings(Not data, storage , or apps):
Code:
adb shell "rm -rf /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases;rm /data/system/password.key;rm /data/system/gesture.key;sync;reboot"
After the reboot it should be OK!
However, I recommend to backup and do a full factory reset after the backup.
thanks
Thanks for the tutorial and tip. Worked all fine.

Glad it worked!
My friend uses Honor 6X. He is on stock Nougat ROM. He is no more now. Is there a way to bypass his phone's Lockscreen without losing data so we could get to know some details we need?
*And his phone's bootloader is Locked.
*No way to enable developer options.
*Can i boot into fastboot mode and using adb commands can i boot via TWRP temporarily?
Anyone who could help we would be greatful
That's There's no way, he needs to factory reset his phone.
Remove /Bypass Lockscreen With Recovery, just in case someone else need it.
Hello friends , I am that stupid who is locked out of my phone for last 20 hours. Apparently I attempted to unlock my phone with wrong finger, and now it's stuck on PIN unlock, which i don remember because I never really used it. Here's the detailes:
I want to recover some data, before factory reset.
Device Name: Le2 X526
(only integrated memory, no sd card)
Device state:
Fully Functional
USB Debugging - OFF
Bootlocker Unlocked
Fastboot Mode enabled
I have a valid fingerprint (if it can be used to unlock somehow)
Full access to my Google ID of my phone..
Methods tried so far:
- Web google interface to lock out phone, does not replace PIN password of my phone.
-No forgot password button after repeated attempts
-Cannot flash anything from pc, cause no usb debbuging.
Some hope from methods, Please help on these:
-In Recovery mode, i can flash a zip named update.zip from usb otg.
Please elaborate?
-Any method to reset back to fingerprint. After battery drain? Internet cut off? Anything?
-Recovering data after factory reset.
I have spent many hours into it. Will appreciate any help.
Peace
Any help?:highfive:
Which Recovery? TWRP or stock recovery? if u have twrp just go to File Manager - data/system/password.key delete this file and reboot ,now enter any random password and unlock ur phone
Where did you store your data? Because if you used an SD card, you can just take it off and insert it into a card reader.

Hello,
I have Samsung A5 2017, my cell has virus attack and every minute it restart automatically, all things are stocks so not able to reflash,reset device
is there any way usb debugging enabled from recovery/download mode ?
Not adb, but hold volume down while the phone is starting. A watermark will appear, "Safe Mode", the "virus", if not a root exploit, will not load and you could uninstall it. Also remove it from the device administrators & accessibility settings. If it doesn't work, hold volume up. If it doesn't work, press and hold the menu/recents key when the "SAMSUNG" logo and the brightness changes.

If you know your Google account details and you don't mind losing all your data reset your device.
It's unlikely it has compromised the system partition unless you were rooted.
If you were rooted then you may as well just wipe data with twrp.
Failing that reinstall the stock firmware.
nothing worked, i think virus at boot level, because can able to enter stock recovery, after factory reset result is same, tried with safe mode, but not work, not able to connect internet and reset device because it turn only 50 Seconds and rebooted, if i tried with odin than got error - FRP Lock, i also tried google device reset from web but it required internet connection on phone , so this option also not worked

If you have installed the correct firmware with odin and factory reset and your device still has issues then your problem is not related to a virus. More likely a hardware issue.

May be, but when i tried to install Custom Recovery CWM, TWRP it gaves message - custom binary blocked by frp lock
If i tried same firmware - then stuck without any reason - log say - recovery.img cancelled
why i think this is virus because i enabled usb debug and after auto reboot again its shows disabled , even i change wallpaper and reboot its showing same old wallpaper, means anything i do after 50 seconds revert back as it is, one kind device is locked

You can't install anything custom until OEM UNLOCK is enabled in settings.
Install the stock firmware with odin then factory reset in stock recovery.
You will need to enter your Google account details once the device has fully booted to disable FRP.

Yes, i tried , but not successes, after complete reboot i get 50 Seconds only, in this time period i can only enable usb debug, but when i enabled OEM unlock option, its automatically turn off without any error, and device reboot, so neither able to uninstall anything nor accessing via adb because 50 seconds its too less
even i connect with pc and try to format phone memory , after reboot all deleted file again available, even renamed files back to with same name

Forget about USB debugging it's not going to help you right now. I would try enabling OEM UNLOCK and then immediately power down the device BEFORE it reboots.

Dears,
I have received a phone for son of my friend, he used it for a day then he put a password that he doesn't know, without linking the phone to google account
the phone is global Lenovo K9 note with locked bootloader
I have tried to wipe it from recovery no wipe option only update,
tried to fastboot unlock, erase, etc... not possible because of locked bootloader.
tried to download stock QFIL flash files to flash it in EDL mode, it is not possible because of sahara protocol faliure, tried every possible way in the internet with no success
any advice?
Appreciate in advance
