I can't remember my screen lock sequences! how can i do now???
i can't do a factory reset...
If you enter the wrong lock pattern six or so times, Android will impose a freeze and give you the option to unlock by entering your gmail/google account login details.
Well ^, there's your answer.
please help me, i forget my Device unlock pattern. what can I do for unlocking Nexus One?
Keep failing and at some point it will let you use your gmail password

Thread Moved To Q&A
Please post questions in the Q&A Section. As highlighted in the Sticky
You need Hard reset
go to setting - privacy - reset phone (this will erase your data)
If asked you to erase SD card, say No
n wait, i have idea of application, which temporary unloack your screen. updating soon
Edit : This application call screen lock bypass
https://market.android.com/details?...uY3VyaXR5LmFuZHJvaWQuc2NyZWVubG9ja2J5cGFzcyJd
this will allow you to unlock screen temporarily, so you can take backup
Just Now i have seen they have added screen lock bypass pro
which unlock screen without reset, but it is paid application
read this
https://market.android.com/details?...ob21hc2Nhbm5vbi5zY3JlZW5sb2NrYnlwYXNzLnBybyJd
So if you have nothing important to care of your data, just simply hard reset your device.
can you try this:
in the lock screen, double press the home button to bring up the voice control module
after that, just press back, and you're at the home screen
weird that mine does this

It works with only when you selected "None" lock method
Go to samsungdive.com and if you have a samsung account on your phone you can log in and remotely unlock (among other things) it from there. You do not have to lose any data.

With screen Lock , How to enter in account setting?
I think this work if set it priorly on device.
huh? I clearly said that if you have the samsung account set up on your phone (which you do if you use samsung apps etc), then you can do this. To log in to samsung dive, you need to have your account set up.
I made the the mistake of activating the lockscreen password feature of my Galaxy Note and now I can't seem to deactivate the feature. When trying to turn off screen lock password under the security menu - you will see in the screenshot that it "deactivate" option is greyed out.
Anyone know why its like this? How to go around this problem? By the way, I am using ICS Version 4.0.3.

Nope its not a custom ROM. I'm using the official update from Samsung.
setting - security - screen lock - select None
Edit : sorry just now seen screenshot, its not available for you.
are using any password storage appl n deleted it?
I think wiping can solve this, but not advisable on ICS.
have you tried changing the option ? Like selecting Pin Number, Then see if 'None' becomes selectable ?
Sure is strange

Hi,
If you go to the samsungdive.com website and register your device, you will be able to reset any activation priorly set with the remote 'unlock screen' feature.

Thanks a lot. Using an exchange account locked the screen of a Note 2. This was the solution.

Same happened to me, not sure whether you've had solved yours.
Anyway, go to Setting<Security<Clear credentials
i know this is an old post, but i faced somewhat of a similar problem. couldnt select any option but pin and password, everything else was greyed out.
go to settings---->security---->clear credentials (at the very bottom)
its caused by some certificate which doesnt let u remove lockscreen. hope it helps.
