WARNING
Precautions to take when using pattern lock.
It is very important to remember the unlock pattern you set. You will not be able to
access your phone if you use an incorrect pattern 5 times. You have 5 opportunities to
enter your unlock pattern, PIN or password. If you have used all 5 opportunities, you can
try again after 30 seconds.
When you can't recall your unlock Pattern, PIN or Password:
< If you have forgotten your pattern >
If you logged in to your Google account on the phone but failed to enter the correct pattern 5 times, tap the
Forgot pattern? button at the bottom of the screen. You are then required to log in with your Google Account or
you have to enter the Backup PIN which you entered when creating your Pattern Lock.
If you have not created a Google account on the phone or you forgot Backup PIN, you have to perform a hard
reset.
< If you have forgotten your PIN or Password >
If you forget your PIN or Password, you will need to perform a hard reset.
Caution: If you perform a hard reset, all user applications and user data will be deleted.
NOTE: If you have not logged into your Google Account and have forgotten your Unlock
Pattern, you will need to enter your Backup PIN.
