What happens if you forgot your pattern lock?
Android normally secures your device by demanding a PIN, pattern, or full password. Your phone isn't useless if you forget the unlock code — you can bypass it and get back in. As Google tightens security, this has become more difficult on modern versions of Android.
How do I unlock my Android after too many pattern attempts without factory reset?
The easiest way to restore control is to provide the Google account or Gmail account information associated with your phone when prompted. This will send an email to your account, which you can use to disable or change the unlock pattern on your phone.
