BYPASS ANDROID PATTERN LOCK WITHOUT INTERNET OR PASSWORD

One of the most common and popular lock in android phones is pattern lock. we know that we have 3 attempts to open the lock else we cannot access the phone unless we enter the gmail details and our phone has internet connection.

So this tutorial is for those people who forgot the pattern, gmail details, who want to bypass the pattern, hack, who dont have internet, etc etc...

Note:

Please dont forget to remove your SD out before you start the process because the all user data may erase including your SD.

Update

Google has a decent article on how to regain access to your account here:

http://support.google.com/android/bin/answer.py?hl=en&topic=2500700&ctx=topic&answer=2569768

That will still not solve everything but start there and then go through the bullets below.

Some workarounds to try before reading ahead:

1. try entering null as password. (together with your google username)

2. try entering your username without @gmail.com

3. Combine 1 and 2

4. Call yourself from another phone, answer, without hanging up press the home button, then menu button, settings, try to disable pattern-lock

5. Call yourself from another phone, answer, hang-up, directly after hanging up start pressing your buttons like a madman for <30-60 seconds ending with your home button (might take a while to get the timing right). Go into settings and disable pattern-lock.

6.  Try the normal recover password routine from GMail.com and start over from 1.

7. Perform a factory reset. YOU WILL LOOSE all not-synced DATA (SD card will be left untouched).

1-6 are possible workarounds, these doesn't work for everyone but can be worth a try to avoid factory reset. 6. is what should work but hardly never does. 7 - The factory reset always work

End Update

In this case the solution is to make a factory reset (sometimes referred to as hard reset or wipe). This will erase all data on your phone (not on your SD-card). Your contacts and mails should be in sync with the Google servers, no problem there then. Downloaded applications needs to be installed again but there is a list of your previous downloads in the Android Market->My Downloads. Other things though are lost if you haven’t backed them up manually with a 3-rd party application. Example on things you will lose: Call logs, text messages, application settings.

This is your 3 step solution

1. Factory reset your phone (links to Android device manuals can be found below, it differs between devices)
2. Setup your phone just like you did the first time you unpacked it (use the same Google Account if you want your old contacts back!)
3. Restore any manual back-ups and install your previous applications from the My Downloads list.
