Forgot my samsung phone pattern unlock code

Recently I helped my sister who has a problem with unlock pattern android phone samsung galaxy GT young, but all the android phone applications installed on the Android phone erased, because before I didn't know it turns out there are other step that can to open forgot unlock pattern.

My suggestion is that we are equipped with the android phone pattern or password to enter when the application phone menu then you should not get use by others who do not know the unlock pattern or password that we set, so if the number of times wrong and usually three times to unlock of the patterns will be entered into the log menu to enter user name using our email account and password.

But if the email or password is forgotten that we use as user and password on our android phone and will become confused, but we can indeed use the place of phone service but if the places is far from home and the money must be come out it would make us so lazy.

2 steps How to unlock pattern unlock a forgotten password:

The first step is probably going a bit difficult for those who have never used adb command but it will be better because of the settings and applications that have been installed will be safe.

1. By using ADB, this step from www.putrifauziah.com with this step then it seems that there are applications in android phone that has been installed are not deleted.

  • ADB is Android Debug Bridge, which means a bridge to connect the computer to android or android to android so we can install Android applications on the computer.
  • Download ADB application at adbdriver.com and how to install adb to be seen in theandroidsoul.com.
  • After ADB can be used on the computer and then do as follows below:
        - Open CMD in windows and typing "adb devices" (without the quotes) (if the driver is installed, android phone will detected)

        - Typing "adb shell" (without the quotes)

        - In linux Typing "rm /data/system/gesture.key" (without the quotes)
forgot unlock pattern samsung phone
After it shut down and restart the android phone if successful it will be straight to the phone menu without unlock pattern.

2. By reset to its default settings or settings restored to its original settings, this step from science-android.blogspot.com but the data and apps is already installed will be deleted.
  • Turn off samsung android young phone.
  • Press the Volume UP + Home button + Power button simultaneously until the press came out and release the samsung logo to boot into recovery.
  • Then press the volume up (+) to shift and volume down (-) to start running the command press the home button or the power button.
  • Select the "wipe default factory reset"
  • Reboot or turn off and turn on the samsung android phone unlock pattern will disappear and go to the start menu.
samsung young unlock pattern

Of the two steps above its select one if possible but if the firts step not help choose the one step, forgot unlock pattern and password may be done well and can be re-used android phone.
If any of the above tips can not use the second step, But for the second step as I've said above you have to give up all the applications and settings that have been saved will be lost, but of the android phone becomes unusable better steps to use it. Because every setting and all the applications that have been installed will be able to install and set us back.

I did installed bluestacks on the computer but will be same if you install on a laptop. Already two posts related to how to install android on pc laptop or computer with various applications such as android sdk emulator,youwave and android x86. Among each emulator has advantages and disadvantages depending on how we rate.

For this time I give a brief tutorial on how to install android on a laptop or computer with a Windows operating system using BlueStacks. What is bluestacks? BlueStacks is Android emulator application that can be used on the windows so we could use the android on a laptop or computer along with the windows. Any version of Windows that can be installed BlueStacks? Windows that can be used BlueStacks among others, windows xp, windows 7 and windows 8.

Here will give you tips on how to install android emulator on Windows 8 with BlueStacks and computer specs are slightly lower its specs insufficient, because its onboard VGA and not HD and 1gb of ram, use earlier BlueStacks  beta version 0.7.0721. And here my computer specifications.

Operating system: Windows 8
Processor: Pentium Dual CPU 1.80 GHz x2
Graphic / VGA: 256 MB onboard intel G33
RAM / Memory: 1024 MB or 1GB

And this before you install bluestacks your PC must have Net framework installed in your PC.
Minimal computer or laptop based on the source getsatisfaction.com | getsatisfaction.com 2 is as follows:

1. 1GB of RAM
2. Graphic or VGA 256/512MB

3. Click the install button and wait until the process is complete.

4. This is a common problem, at the time of install BlueStacks is running an error message like "your graphics hardware or dirvers do not support apps ......" just click ok. If BlueStacks continue the installation it will install normally but if at the time of clicked ok BlueStacks does not want to run or even rolling back install the BlueStacks will not be installed. You must update your vga driver to a better version or re-download BlueStacks app with the older version.

5. If the install is complete it will automatically open BlueStacks application, just play the android apps with BlueStacks.

6. Or if BlueStacks is not running automatically so we just click it on desktop or in the program files.

7. For how to install android applications apk in PC or android app to bluestacks like whatsapp messenger or other apps can be done with BlueStacks app or download android apps apk to your computer and then double-click the apps that will be installed to bluestacks and apps will be automatically installed to direct BlueStacks, or by direct download or install on the BlueStacks apps.

In some cases that the use BlueStacks on computer 1 GB ram and onboard vga which only has a capacity of 256 MB then install some applications that require better graphics HD its will got some problem and can not be installed as WeChat, and other applications

Consider once again the PC specs that I used above so that nothing was left out of what will be done on your PC. Because so many comments it seems they do not see my computer specs are used.

With BlueStacks we can use the android emulator should like android phone, but the problems during the installation may often we found as I have mentioned above. So if it will install BlueStacks note see for Bluestacks requirement of these are compatible with PC being used, so the problem will we know when to install BlueStacks.
