Phone locked? how to reset the passcode

Recommended Posts

My Galaxy S6 was locked due to too many error password attempts. My nephew took over my phone this morning and input the wrong code. I don't to want to reset the whole phone coz there are so many games on it. Is there any soft way to unlock the phone without losing data? Thanks

If you've registered an account with google then try android device manager's "Find my android" feature. It allows you to remotely reset lock as long as the phone is connected to interwebs.

Other than that, no... you'll need to wipe it. If, as mentioned above, you registered account, then there's a chance your backups were also synchronized and you can get your shit back by restoring this backup.

If you have no important files on your Android phone, then you can restore your Android to factory reset. This will erase all your data and settings. Other way is try Android screen removal tool.

So, here is the best way about how to reset the passcode. So, just go through this to get rid of your problem that you are facing:

1) With the help of Google account, you can easily reset your passcode.

2) Either, with the Android Device Manager also, you can do this.

3) By the help of Backup PIN, you can reset the passcode of your Android device.
