Re: I am locked out of my s6

Welcome to Android Central! This is why you really need to remember your backup password--the fingerprint scanner is not foolproof.

If you fail the unlock process enough times, does it ask for your Google credentials?

MOrning - I had just installed my password protector that takes a picture and GPS for phone when I accidentally locked myself out. I have not even set up find my phone. What can I do? I'm lost right now.
