How do I undo Lock and Erase?

[AC Question]

Undo Lock and Erase

So I thought I lost my phone but have located it. The battery had gone dead so I wasn't able to locate it through android device manager. I found it this morning and have to pick it up tonight. I had enabled lock and erase on it but obviously I don't need it locked and erased anymore. Is there any way I can undo this? The phone hasn't been powered on or connected to data/wifi.

Re: Undo Lock and Erase

Welcome to Android Central! One way to stop it temporarily is to go to Settings>Security>Device Administrators, and uncheck Android Device Manager. That should prevent it from being able to wipe the phone. Make sure the phone isn't connected to the web until after you uncheck this. However, I'm not sure how to completely cancel that command. If you were to check Android Device Manager again, I would guess that the command would become active and the phone would wipe.
