  • Quick press the Power key to turn the screen on.
  • You will be prompted to enter your pattern lock. If entered incorrectly, your phone will request you to try again.
    NOTE: You must enter a pattern at least 5 times to continue to the Google Account unlock option.

    After the 5th attempt, a warning message will display. Tap OK to continue.

    Tap Forgot pattern? in the bottom right corner.

    Enter your Google account information (name and password) and tap Sign in.

    Enter a new pattern screen lock and tap Continue.

    Confirm the pattern and press Continue to access your phone.

    1. Ensure your device has a wireless data connection.
    2. If unable to recall your phone's original Google account information, visit www.gmail.com from a computer to confirm or reset your password.
    3. If the Google account name and password still cannot be entered in correctly, a master reset is required.
