, by which an user can take full control on it. Today we are unveiling some of the major android security flaws by which anyone can bypass or crack android password / pin / pattern locks. This article is for those users who forgotten their android phone lock and want to reset without lossing data 






METHOD 1

4. Then flash the downloaded .zip 

5. Reboot... and Done........!!!



METHOD 2 ( This method is for those, who dont have recovery installed on their android phones)

  • Download ADB & Fastboot Files from the link mentioned below:
  1. ADB & Fastboot files for Android
  • Extract ‘Fastboot.zip‘ (the one you’ve just downloaded) to any convenient location on your PC (may be Desktop).
  • After extracting the zip file, open Fastboot folder. You’ll find following 4 files inside it.
  1. adb.exe
  2. AdbWinApi.dll
  3. AdbWinUsbApi.dll
  4. fastboot.exe
  • Now connect your Android phone to the Computer.
  • On PC, in fastboot folder, hold shift button & right click on empty space (Check the image below).


  • Select “Open command window here” option.
  • In command prompt, type following command to ensure that if your device is properly connected or not.
adb devices


After entering above command, some random numbers will appear (Check the image given below). This confirms that your device is connected properly. Now there are two methods to crack unlock pattern. Choose one which is applicable on your device.

(Applicable on Samsung Phones. May or may not work with other devices)
  • Now type following commands one by one (and hit enter after each command).
adb shell
cd /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases
sqlite3 settings.db
update system set value=0 where name=’lock_pattern_autolock';
update system set value=0 where name=’lockscreen.lockedoutpermanently';
.quit
(Applicable on non Samsung devices. May or may not work with Samsung Phones. You can try though):
  • If above commands don’t work then try with this one.
adb shell rm /data/system/gesture.key
  • After typing all these commands, restart your phone.
  • As soon as your device gets rebooted, you’ll see the pattern lock isn’t unlocked yet. Well don’t worry just enter any pattern & phone will get unlock automatically.
