i want to use the private mode in 'settings', and i created a pattern ( for lock/unlock). When i had to confirm this pattern, i forgot wich one it was. Result: every time i use an incorrect pattern, i can not acces, and i have to wait a few minutes, before i can draw a new pattern. And this is repeating itself endlessly. What can i do , to again be able to make a new pattern? ( some kind of a reset maybe ?). Hope someone can help me with this.

greetz,

Tjoh

Doesn't work like that. If you could have a back door, it would not be secure hey... You need the original password /pattern to unlock before you can change it...

Your password will still be needed after the external (while holding both the Volume Up and Home keys, press and hold the Power key) factory reset.

Sorry.
