Hey fellas, I got a tricky one for you.
I turned on my Galaxy S6 (duos) after it had died on me. The phone is secured by fingerprint, but if you reboot it, you have to put in an extra security credential for the first time. My extra security credential is a lock pattern. Now, what drove me Nicholas Cage MAD is that the phone keeps telling me that my unlock pattern is incorrect and asks me to wait for 30 sec (then 60, then 2min today) from the first attempt. Now I should tell you that I'm very good with phones and techie stuff. Therefore, I know that the only way to reset the pattern (nowadays) is to use the Samsung Find my Mobile service. The tricky part is that I forgot my Samsung account password and had to reset it. When that happens, the phone logs out of its Samsung Account so Find my Mobile no longer works. Seems like my only option here is to factory reset, but I REALLY don't want to do that..
Pleeeeaaase help !!
Thanks,
Adel
