Unlocking the screen of an LG smartphone if you have forgotten the key or password

“I forgot my LG Stylo 3 password, how can I reset my forgotten screen lock without losing data?”

It is normal and common when you set a screen lock password or pattern for your LG phone to protect your phone from unauthorized access.

Nowadays, the smartphone is playing an increasingly important role in our daily lives as people are accustomed to storing all their personal, professional and even financial information on their mobile phone. Therefore, it is useful and necessary to lock your LG phone using different types of screen lock. However, locking your screen is sometimes a hassle if you have forgotten your Android password. If you have a good habit of backing up Android to computer frequently, you can factory reset your LG phone and restore the data from the backup later without any problem. However, I believe that most of you are not aware of the need to frequently back up your important data in case of an emergency.

So when you forgot your LG screen lock password, resetting your phone should be your last choice as you won't want to lose all your precious data.

Unlocking the screen of an LG smartphone if you have forgotten the key or password

All mobile device manufacturers provide the opportunity to protect user data in a variety of ways. There is no doubt about the usefulness of such a function, but there are cases when the owner of a smartphone simply forgets the unlock code. We will tell you exactly how to unlock an LG smartphone in this manual.

When installing a Knock Code, pattern or face control, you are additionally prompted to enter a PIN code or password to unlock them. If you remember them, then there will be no problems. We strongly recommend not to forget it or just write this set of numbers somewhere in a notepad. If you don’t remember it, then unlocking your LG phone if you forgot the password will be more difficult, but this task is still doable.

Method 1 – Unlock LG Pattern Using Google Account

If you are unable to enter the lock code and password correctly, but at the same time you perfectly remember the account data, then we repeat the entry attempts until the “forgot...” button appears. Click on this button and a window for entering data from your Google account will appear on the screen. You must enter your email address and password to log in. This method will allow you to unlock the screen only if your smartphone has an active connection via Wi-Fi or mobile Internet. If this method does not work, then the most radical method remains, which is described in the next paragraph.

Method 2 – full reset (Hard Reset)

If you don’t remember any data from your accounts and passwords, then you can remove any lock by resetting the settings, called Hard Reset. It is worth noting that when using this solution, all data from the memory of the mobile device will be deleted and the system will be brought to stock state (while maintaining the current version of the operating system). Just in case, remove the SIM cards and memory card. The reset procedure is almost the same for all LG smartphones.

We perform the following steps step by step:

  1. Turn off the device.
  2. Simultaneously press and hold the “Power” and “Volume Down” buttons until the company logo appears, then release the “Power” key and immediately press it back. (Some models require you to press both buttons and press them again)
  3. A confirmation window will appear to reset to factory settings.
  4. Using the volume rocker, select the “Yes” button and confirm the selection with the “Power” button. If a second confirmation request appears on the screen, then do the same.

That's all. After resetting the settings, you will need to perform the same actions that you did after purchasing the smartphone.

LG entering the unlock code into the phone (Nck code)

Unlocking LG
from your operator is not difficult. You can unlock almost any LG phone from any mobile operator in the world. Just enter the unlock code and your phone will work with any network SIM card. We provide factory codes from a unified manufacturer database. Bypassing the blocking code is provided by the manufacturer - it does not void your warranty and does not harm the phone software. To unlock it and calculate the code, you need the phone model and IMEI. To unlock some LG models, you also need the operator under which it is locked.

Terms used:
Authorized sim
= SIM card of the operator on which your phone is locked LG
Unauthorized sim
= SIM card of any other operator
NCK = SIM_UNLOCK
= NCK unlock code from the operator
SPCK
= unlock code from the operator

As a result of the calculation, you receive codes for all blocking levels. NCK

= 2856115109683092
NSCK
= 4002968561653217
SPCK
= 9174502993536345
CPCK
= 9187458672234704
SIMCK
= 7285650527412361

As a rule, in 98% of cases LG is blocked, only at the NCK

. Some operators, such as: Fido, Telus, Tesco block their LG phones at two levels of blocking - these are NCK and SPCK

Our site has access to the LG factory database, from which you receive a 100% working code for your model.

Always check all attempts and options before ordering an NCK code to unlock your smartphone.

Most LG models require you to enter a code immediately after installing Unauthorized sim = SIM card of any other operator.

1.

sim unauthorized
= SIM card of any other operator.

The second way to unlock the pattern key in your lg phone is if you forgot it

For this method, in addition to the Internet, you need a computer or laptop. If there is, go to this page.

Now we enter the account information, after which the service should show your lg phone in the top left. There may be several, then choose yours.

Below the phone there will be three options: “call”, “unblock” and “delete”. I don’t think there’s any need to explain which one to press.

The graphic key can also be removed by clicking on “Delete”, only then will your data be reset along with the key - so click on “Unlock”.

Unlock PIN code

How to unlock your phone if you forgot your PIN code? You are given three attempts to enter the correct PIN code . If all attempts have been exhausted, the phone will prompt you to enter a PUK code - you can find it in the connection kit or request it through your operator's help desk by calling the hotline. After entering the correct PUK code, the phone will unlock and prompt you to assign a new PIN code - save it somewhere safe.

You have ten attempts to enter the PUK code. If all attempts were incorrect, the SIM card will be permanently blocked - you will have to get a duplicate at the nearest communication store. There are no other available ways to unlock your phone if you have forgotten your PIN code.

Account details

A simple way to unlock Android if you forgot your password is to restore access using your Google account. This method will only work if the tablet or phone is connected to Wi-Fi or a mobile network. This is a mechanism of the system itself that helps in the event of an incorrect password or pattern.

If you enter the pattern incorrectly more than five times, a window will appear warning you about a thirty-second block. The message “Forgot your pattern key?” will appear on the device screen, and when you click on it, you will be asked to enter your Google account information. After you enter your email address and password, the device will unlock.

If you have forgotten your account information, you can restore it on the official Google website.

What to do if you forgot your Sony password

In addition to the general method we have listed, which allows you to unlock your phone using the emergency call button, Sony has provided users of its gadgets with a special unlocking method.

It consists of the following:

  1. Turn on your Sony phone and go to the emergency call screen;
  2. On the emergency call screen, in the dialing field, enter the following combination:

*#*#7378423#*#*

and press the call button;

In the emergency call line, enter the code we provided above

3. The technical menu from Sony will appear with the “Service Test” section;

4. After it, additional items will be displayed, among which select “NFC→Dag Test”. Tap on this item;

5. Press the Home key and you can access your phone without dialing an emergency call.

The most popular and working method that allows you to remove any lock on your phone is a complete factory reset. The only disadvantage of this method is that all files and folders of the owner are deleted, that is, this must be taken into account when planning to perform a Hard Reset on your gadget.

Turn off your phone and turn it on by holding down the volume key and the power button at the same time. Hold the buttons until all active buttons on the device are illuminated, after which you must release the volume and press the button with the image of a house. Immediately after this, if of course everything is done correctly, you will see the formatting and recovery process on the screen, after which your phone will be completely cleared, including passwords.

Unlocking your phone through security holes

This method is relevant for owners of very old handsets, where it is very easy to bypass the protection by fraudulent means. A typical example is bypassing a block using a regular phone call. The protection breaks down like this: we call a locked phone from another phone, accept the call, while making a call, go to the settings and turn off the password request. Next, we drop the call and enjoy the unlocked phone.

This security hole is present on smartphones with the Android 2.2 operating system and lower..

Modern phones don’t have this, so you can’t really rely on this method - but owners of old handsets will be incredibly happy with this method of disabling the lock.

Another hole lies in the process of discharging the battery. At a certain stage, the system will notify you of a strong discharge and the need to connect a charger. At this point we can click on the link to show battery usage statistics. From here we will go to settings and disable the password request. Naturally, this method does not work in modern phones, so you can’t count on it - it’s better to familiarize yourself with other methods that are more effective and efficient.

What ways are there? What you should pay attention to?

You need to unlock a locked LG phone in 5 steps. All of them will help you take the necessary actions in full, since they are the only ones that exist to solve the problem of deactivating the blocking. In general, today many subscribers have long known how to deal with a locked screen on a mobile phone, so it will be enough to listen to a short material on this subject and resolve the issue immediately.

  1. In general, the features of LG phones are no different from other cellular devices. So, for example, the same Samsung or Nokia can be rolled back to its original settings in absolutely the same way, as is the case with the No. 2 Chinese manufacturer in the country. It will be necessary to press certain keys in order to launch the Save Mod in time, which, in fact, will take the user to the necessary parameters, albeit rolled back.
  2. In order to understand how to unlock an LG phone, you need to read and use all the working methods. However, some of them will help in any case, while others will need to be remembered: who knows, what if they will be useful in the future?
  3. In order to unlock the pattern on your phone, you must either reset the settings by putting the phone into safe operation mode, or through a service center, or by flashing the mobile phone.
  4. It is worth understanding that unlocking a password if you have forgotten is not so easy: this is a fairly reliable protection system that can only be removed programmatically.

IMPORTANT: All readers of the mobile subscriber assistance portal x-tarif.ru are offered high-quality material on what exactly should be done to solve problems in the field of blocking. They can be obtained in several ways, so it is our duty to describe all the necessary points for solving complex issues. Since the relevance of the article is high, you can use it for a long time.

Unlocking your phone through flashing

This method is one of the most radical, as it allows you to completely replace the software on your phone. At the same time, the interfering blockage is removed. How to unlock a phone through flashing? To do this, you need to figure out how to flash your phone - look for suitable instructions, download firmware files and programs, charge the battery. After this, we connect the phone to the computer, launch the software, select the firmware files, and perform other operations provided for in the instructions. We start the flashing and wait for the procedure to complete - then we enjoy the absence of blocking.

Flashing phones is carried out using special software, which is selected depending on the handset manufacturer and its model . For example, the Odin program is used to flash phones from Samsung - here, owners of handsets from the South Korean giant are very lucky, since the program is very easy, and even an inexperienced user can handle the flashing procedure.

Fly and Sony phones are flashed using the Flashtool application - it’s quite easy, but it won’t hurt to re-read the instructions once again. Chinese phones running on MTK processors (and other handsets with these processors, for example, from MegaFon or Beeline) are flashed using the SP Flash Tool program. There is nothing complicated in it, so in most cases the flashing is successful - you just need to blindly follow the instructions, and not conduct experiments, playing with the program parameters.

Remember that flashing your phone, like resetting it to factory settings, involves complete loss of data stored in the internal memory.

Reset data

There is another, ninth way to unlock your phone or tablet using “recovery”, but it is not suitable for everyone. The fact is that the devices have a function to return to factory settings. With this data reset, photos, videos, pictures, music and other files will remain unchanged. But SMS, phone book with all contacts, programs and notes will be deleted. It is recommended to enter all your contacts into your Google account so that in such cases you can restore them.

In order to return to factory settings using the “recovery” menu, you need to turn off the device (preferably remove the battery for a few seconds), enter “recovery” mode and select the menu item called “Wipe Data / Factory Reset”. Navigation through the menu is carried out with the volume key, selection - with the power key. After some time, the phone will reboot on its own (in some models you need to reboot manually) and will be unlocked. Not everyone knows how to use the recovery menu, so we’ll look at this method in detail using the example of different phone models.

Unlocking your phone via SMS Bypass

Have you given your phone superuser rights and enjoy features not available to other users? In this case, you need to take care that you may forget your password - let's try to create a workaround. To do this, we will use the extremely useful SMS Bypass application. Download it, install it in your phone, go to settings and set a digital code - it will serve as the key to unlocking the handset.

How to unlock your phone using SMS Bypass? To do this, you need to send an SMS with the text “XXXX reset” to your number - instead of XXX, enter the previously specified digital code. Having received the SMS, the phone will reboot, after which it will again prompt you to enter a password - enter arbitrary numbers and get an unlocked handset at your disposal.

To obtain root rights, use the instructions on our website or look for a more suitable solution on specialized resources and forums.

Samsung

How to unlock Android if you forgot your password? Samsung allows you to reset the key using the Recovery menu.

First turn off the device. Simultaneously press and hold three buttons - “Home”, “Power” and “Volume Up” (if there is no Home button, then you only need to press the last two). Hold down the keys until the menu appears. Using the Volume key, select “wipe data/factory reset”, then press the Power key, in the same way select “yes - Delete all user data” in the menu that appears. Reboot your device by selecting “reboot system now”.

Unlocking your phone using codes

Have you forgotten your password and can't use your phone's features? We have already said that resetting the password is done by resetting to factory settings - this is done using Recovery Mode. But what if your phone doesn’t have this mode? Then we try another solution - if, when entering a password, it is possible to select a keyboard for dialing, you should dial the general reset code or the exit code to the engineering menu on it . Find the corresponding codes on specialized forums and try to use them to unlock your phone.

Do not enter commands whose purpose you do not know - such actions can lead to the most unpredictable consequences, including the complete loss of the phone’s functionality.

We remove the blocking together: SIM card, pattern key, other blocked situations

Removing the lock on LG means right now that you can continue to use your mobile phone to the fullest. TODAY, there are many steps that should be followed in order to solve problems regarding block removal. And now we will tell them in more detail.

  1. The first option is to use a pattern unlock. Here you should press the key combination “ON + upper case VOLUME” on your turned off mobile phone. After the phone is launched in the software environment, you must use the volume keys to select SAVE MODE and press. The phone will begin to roll back to its original settings. After this is done, you can continue working, but with the original parameters inside.
  2. If you need to remove a block from a SIM card, you must enter the PUK code, which can be found, for example, on the box of documents that were received at the mobile office when concluding a contract. The second option is to delve into these very documents, since on the package with SIM card data you can also find a PUK code.

Now it is worth mentioning the codes that may be useful for our readers.

  • “*#06#” – Show IMEI

Service menu entry codes

  • “*789# + Send – LG – 200”
  • “2945# * – (hold) LG – 500”
  • “2945#*# – LG – 510”
  • “2945#*1# – (second service menu) LG – 510”
  • “2945# * – (hold) LG – 600”
  • “# and On together, then 6 6 8 LG – B1200”
  • “*6861# initialization after booting LG – B1200”
  • “*8375# – LG – B1200”
  • “2945#*# – LG – 5200”
  • “Service Menu – 2945#*#”
  • "2945#*# – service menu (code reset)(W3000 G5300 C1200 G7100...)"
  • "2945#(*)- hold (LG 500,600)"
  • "B1200 *+pwr, 6,6,8 Service Menu"
  • "B1300 *+pwr, 1,5,9 Service Menu"

If there is no Internet connection

The first method, showing how to unlock an Android if you forgot your password, will not work if there is no Internet, since the login and password for your Google account will be impossible to verify. An Internet connection must be established.

To do this, you need to turn it on and off or simply restart the device. Immediately after turning on, the top bar will appear (it is also called the notification center, or information center). Pull it down and turn on Wi-Fi or mobile Internet. After this, you can enter your username and password, and the device will be unlocked.

If there is no Wi-Fi nearby and mobile Internet is not available on your SIM card, you can do the following. Just use a different SIM card, pay attention in advance whether it is connected and whether there is money on the balance.

You can also connect the device to the Internet using a LAN adapter. To do this, you will need the adapter itself and a router connected to the Internet. The device connects to the Internet using an adapter, which will allow you to check the correctness of the entered Google account data. You should be aware that not all devices support operation via a LAN adapter.

Unlocking with an additional PIN code

Let's get back to unlocking Samsung phones, since we haven't discussed another way to restore access - using an additional PIN code. It is assigned when setting the main security password and consists of four digits . Here you need to enter numbers that you will definitely never forget. If you have forgotten the main password, allow several attempts to enter it incorrectly, after which you will have access to the PIN code entry form - enter the treasured numbers and restore access to your phone.

Do not specify too simple digital combinations as a PIN code - this may help attackers gain access to the data stored on your phone. Enter here, for example, the PIN code of your credit card, which only you know.

How to unlock an Android smartphone?

It is possible to unlock a smartphone based on the Android operating system if you have forgotten the password using third-party applications, functions and simple methods.

Use the Smart Lock feature

The popular Smart Lock feature is effective if your smartphone is in your home and connected to any device using Bluetooth technology. Requires setup in advance: you need to specify the smartphone in the allowed access list for the connected device wirelessly. When these two devices are further connected, the phone will automatically unlock. If you have not done this setting in advance, then, unfortunately, you will not be able to use this method.

Remove protection using your Google account

Another equally convenient way is to log into your Google account, but it only works if you have an Internet connection. After entering the wrong password multiple times, you need to click on the “Forgot your password?” button, after which you need to go to the Google page and log in. As a result of gaining access to all functions of the smartphone, you will be able to change the password.
