This phone doesnt have service, so not connected to the internet. I just want to get my photos off of it. The wifi icon is lit up ... but i cant really connect it to my other phones hotspot because i would have to be able to get into it and since i forgot my lock code i cant. I obviously dont want to do a factory reset because I want my pictures. (Phone samsung galaxy 6s edge) is there anyway i cant get the wifi to work on it so at least i can use some other method of verification like my google accout to bypass the lock screen. Ty!

Welcome to Android Central! I'm afraid you may be stuck. More modern phones don't prompt you for your Google account/password if you fail the unlock multiple times. You could try Samsung's Find My Mobile to remotely unlock it, but that probably requires a data connection: https://findmymobile.samsung.com/

On the off chance you had Google Photos auto-backup turned on, go to photos.google.com on your computer browser to see if the photos are there.
