I installed a new sim card in my phone and when I rebooted the password didn't work. I tried removing the new sim card and putting in the old one, restarting the device, Google's device manager to lock and put on a new password, and hard resetting. Nothing has worked, the password remains and won't accept the right answer nor any of the Google lockout passwords. any ideas?

no one has any ideas? Just a note I don't have USB debugging enabled so ADB commands won't work and the factory reset has done anything.

Hi,
I have for the first time rooted my HTC Desire. And for the first time also just installed a ROM, LeeDroid 3.0.6-R2. Everything works fine, so I think, but one thing.
I've set up my Exchange account to my work and entered a new pin code. The pin code works every time when the phone locks and I need to enter the pin to unlock it. But as soon as I go into Clockwork Recovery mode and then do nothing but restart the phone, it doesn't accept my pin code. After 8 failed attempts it wipes my phone automatically.
When it happened the first time I thought I messed up with the pin code. So I wiped the phone and started over (not reflashing the ROM), setting up Exchange with the same pin code. But it didn't accept the one I used previously. So I choose a new one, simple, 0000. Tried several times to unlock with the pin after the phone had locked. Then just now I rebooted again with Clockwork Recovery and just restarted the phone and it again won't accept my pin code.
I don't want to disable the policy and not have a pin code via some app.
Has anyone had this issue before? It's like my pin code isn't saved once I go into Recovery mode. But it still enforced the policy.
This will be the 4th time I have to wipe my phone and start over -.-
TIA
Ok, so I tried after my last wipe last night to not configure Activesync and just go into security and set a regular pin. Let the phone lock, worked. Restart phone into recovery, restart again. Doesn't work.
So I think I've managed to solve the issue. Reboot the phone completely (not into recovery) after I've set the pin code. Try to see if it works, which it did, then boot into recovery and again reboot to normal. Pin code still works. Odd....
Sigh.....nope. Still the same problem when I rebooted the phone. I still need help :'(
Someone must have some ideas?
Bumping. Halp!
I was on the official Nougat Beta, but today I decided to go back to PIA to get root back. After flashing all files via Odin, the phone rebooted. But now it wants me to enter a password to decrypt device storage before I can do anything. The only other option is to make an emergency call. Prior to flashing PIA, I did have the device set up to unlock with my finger print OR a PIN. I assumed that it wanted the PIN, but it is not doing anything. After entering the PIN, it says Verifying... Then it goes back to wanting me to enter the password. The PIN is the only password I have ever used for the device, and I do not recall encrypting the storage one the phone. Any and all help would be appreciated.
After factory resetting three or four times, it went away and let me in. Now in the process of setting up the phone.
MODS, this thread can be deleted.
hello!
my friend bought a new G935FD
but instead of resetting through Settings.. she went to recovery & did a factory reset, now she's stuck.
soo, how to bypass this?
If its new how did she get locked out? She just needs to put in her gmail she used to setup the device and it'll unlock.
If it's stuck asking for a password when booting, try default_password
Hello, my wifes stock S21+ crashed and rebooted. It now boots up, accepts SIM card pin code but UI crashes to black screen and reloads when you enter the pattern to unlock the phone. Phone is still locked and it asks for the pattern again. I can't activate developer mode/USB debugging because of this. I can call the phone and answer the call so the phone works, it just doesn't want to unlock.
Is there any way to get the data out? We do have backups but unfortunately yesterdays sons christmas event didn't get yet uploaded to the cloud. The phone has warranty but support said they will wipe the phone. I don't care about keeping phone under warranty, all I want is yesterdays data.
Safe mode has the same problem. I already tried flashing current and older stock firmware with Odin but same problem persists. Is there any other thing I could try?
