I recently switched phones. And am unable to restore my backed up notes to my new phone. I have the .dat and .idx files in the /data/colornote/backup directory, but ColorNotes asks for my password (presumably the password I set on my old phone) which I don't remember anymore. How can I restore these notes if I don't have the right password?

Is there away to recover these Notes?

Thanks,
Joe

Try default password '0000' (numbers)

If that doesn't work:

Q: I forgot my password, how can I change it?
A: Menu -> Settings -> Master Password -> Menu Button-> Clear Password.
!! You will lose current locked notes when you clear password.

LOL, you must "know" the password to clear the password.

For those using this app, don't forget thy pass-code

0000 doesn't work for Notes backed up previously on a different phone (and with an unknown password).

There has to be a way to get those backup notes restored.

It's possible to reset password and still keep the locked data.
First back u to sd card in colournote menu- settings-back upthe in settings clear master password
Then go to back up choose the back up and restore
The locked data will still be locked but when u open it it will ask you for a new password
Hope it helps
