Okay. Here's the deal. I'm helping a friend of mine, so this isn't my phone. This phone is locked with a pattern. After too many wrong tries (kids), the phone is asking for email address and password. This is normally not a problem, but data and wifi are turned off, so when email and password are entered, the phone isn't connected to internet, amd can't communicate with Google servers in order to confirm the username and password. Is there any way to turn wifi or data on without unlocking? Or is there a way to reset the phone so that my friend could sign in with the pattern lock?
We want to avoid factory resetting the phone because it isn't backed up.
 
Turn on phone screen, then hold the power button until you get a menu with different actions you can perform, then click power off and confirm it, then restart the device.

Restarting the device doesn't reset the security. When it powers back on, it still asks for username and password.
 
Try entering recovery mode and seeing what you could do?
