Any possibility to break lock pattern? - Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers

Hello, my friend gave my a Samsung Galaxy J510fn, because she forgot her lock pattern. Phone is not stole or something, as you might think first I got a login and password for google account registered on this phone if that would help. Phone has been using by woman so there is no things like custom recovery, root or usb debbuging turned on and it has stock firmware. Normally I will factory reset this phone but she said that she don't want to lose anything, specially photos, videos etc. I tried to unlock this pattern by programs like dr.fone or backup data by Kies but none of these are seeing this phone :crying:
So is there any possibility for cracking this phone without losing any data?

Back in the day you were able to remove pattern if you knew the samsung account details. Not sure if thats a thing anymore...

But when we boot phone for the first time it's force us to create samsung account or we can skip that step? Because she said that she didn't mention of creating samsung account. Even tried to search her ID through email but can't find anything.

then wiping everything is the only choice i guess

You can backup files from recovery mode (should be able to do it in stock recovery) I think (maybe copy to PC). Then make a factory reset.
Recovery Mode - Vol+, Home and Power buttons
Download Mode - Vol- , Home and Power buttons
And 2nd option. If you can, go to Download Mode and flash her TWRP! Make Nandroid backup there and then make factory reset. Flash TWRP via Odin of course.
But you must read how to enable USB Debugging if it is needed, I forgot how to

Phone locked out,

Hi there,
Friend of mine using Lenovo A6000+, Doesn't have google account in that phone. It was secured with the pattern lock. But unfortunately he forgot the unlock pattern. Since he have a lot of contacts in that phone, there is no way to reset it. Its full stock version. Just a basic user., so no root access or anything. In this scenario any other way to unlock the phone without doing a factory reset? The google answers are helpful only if the usb debugging is enabled. Since it is not rooted and basically a very common user used that phone, i don't think usb debugging is enabled. Any help appreciated.
By the way, i'm also thinking of flashing a custom recovery into the phone. Will that be of any help? Would it cause the phone to lose data? Will that need usb debugging enabled to do it?

I dont think, there's anything you can do about it. Ask him first, if he had ever connected to pc and authorized it for usb debugging. Otherwise, the only option left is to factory reset.
Edit: Brother, I'm working on something to change the pattern, which obviously I'll tell you. I'll make a flashable zip which you can flash through twrp. Lets see how this goes.
I'm not sure, if I'll be able to do it. But if it does, it would be very helpful for everyone.
:silly:
Edit 2: Finally I got it working!!! hurray!!
Just flash this zip below and the next time your phone boots, you can enter any "more than 3-dot" pattern and the phone will accept. Later, you can set new pattern or anything.
:angel: :silly:
P.S. I used CWM recovery on stock KK to flash it. Don't know why but I couldn't manage to flash twrp. Who cares anyway, if our job gets done. :silly:

After enabling FRP Lock on Odin, Flashing stuck at "Sending Lock information" and fails
2.Tried Kies3 recovery process
3.Tried to install TWRP using Odin
FRP Lock is still there and i cannot use my phone
Please help me
If the firmware isn't installing it's the wrong one.
You need to go into developer settings and enable OEM UNLOCK.

I cannot enter developer settings because phone requests "Sign in with a google account that was previously synced on this device". Next button is disabled without it.

I would ensure you are using the correct account. My guess is its not.
The Google account will be associated with your device. If it's the correct account then you should be fine.
If you've installed the wrong firmware then Google may see your device as different.
I would sign into your account you think was used on the device via the web then go to Device activity & notifications and ensure your device is listed.
https://accounts.google.com/login
I can see two Devices
1.Samsung Galaxy Tab A6
2.Samsung Galaxy Tab A 7.0 LTE
Mine is Galaxy Tab A6, SM-T285, Recovery email address is correct.
But when i try to login that account on my phone, google says "Sign in with a google account that was previously synced on this device"
Are you not able to wipe data?

Forgot PIN, Google, FAP locked. No access on everything. Please help...

so, I have Samsung J7 2016 left on my drawer for years now, dont know the PIN and the google account. I dont want to lose the data in it coz its the phone I have used to take pictures on my newborn baby so no to Factory Reset. I've Googled for a while and found out about Odin with TWRP then you have to delete some files using TWRP. problem is, when I go to download mode and flash TWRP using Odin, it says FPA is locked and wont proceed.
I really dont know what to do next. Programs such as Dr.Fone is requiring me to go to Settings>Developer>USB Debugging but I cant go there because my phone is locked with PIN.
Please someone help me, I need to unlock my phone.

Surely the Google account is the same as you're using now?
I have had the same account on 10+ devices for years.
Google account is simply your Gmail address.

T580 - Suddently got FRP Lock after over 6 months of use. Any way to recover?

Hi Guys,
I have a couple T580 tablets for my kids, and we had just gotten a new one for Christmas that I set up. I THOUGHT I had done everything correctly, but the new tablet is giving me the FRP Lock suddenly.
Any idea how that could happen? Is there any way to recover the tablet or do I have to do a original rom flash?
Thanks

Somethings not right. You don't "suddenly get an FRP lock". An FRP lock occurs only after you "factory reset" the tablet and don't know the google account login. And that is only if you hadn't enabled "OEM" in "Developer options". What makes you think it is the "FRP lock"? And if it is locked, flashing a ROM with Odin won't help. You'll still need the google account info to access the tablet.

Because this is what it says when I start the tablet...

I have a google account, and info, for the tablet. Not sure how I put it in when the boot process is blocked though...
My only thought is something happened with Magisk?

Again, unless something has changed, which I doubt, that is not the way the FRP lock works. First of all, you said nothing about having a custom ROM installed. But even if you did, the FRP lock would NOT prevent the tablet from booting. It would merely ask for your google account info when it did boot. Have you tried booting into recovery and performing a factory reset?
edit: Let me explain what FRP means. In early versions of Android, if your phone/tablet were lost or stolen, anyone could bypass your "screen lock" simply by booting into recovery mode and perfoming a Factory Reset. So Google came up with the Factory Reset Prevention lock. So if someone tried to use the Factory Reset, the lock would demand the google account login and password to access the tablet. So if you wanted to sell your tablet, you either had to enable "Developer options" and then use that to "Enable OEM", prior to reseting the tablet or put in a google account whose info you could pass to the buyer, remove your real account, and then reset.
In any case, the tablet did NOT show the message you are getting. I've bought several T580s on eBay that WERE locked, and none of them gave that message. A locked tablet would still let you install stock ROMs with Odin, but the tablet would still ask for the google account info. But the way around that can be found in this forum.

I dont think I do, its stock rom, but Magisk is installed which I believe is not a custom rom.

When I turn on the power, the screen comes on, and then says "Custom Binary blocked by FRP Lock" then the screen turns off. I have not tried a factory reset because I was hoping to find a solution without losing everything before I did something that could not be undone.
The only thing left is, I know samsung will (if detected) attempt to remove software. I wonder if it somehow tried to reset automatically and in so doing caused this.
A factory reset does not help in your case.
First option is: contact your person, who sell the phone. Because he must unlock this one in his Google settings.
The question is: how many times a wrong oe no account was insert, that the device doesn't start up till the possibility to insert the correct account.

You don't lose everything with a Factory Reset and what you do lose should be easily recovered from your google account backup. And nothing else could be done that wouldn't also cause a reset.

No one sold me this phone, I bought it new. There is no unlock option. The phone doesnt event start booting, the screen turns on says the FRP lock, then turns off.
Ab FRP Lock said, that the phone is looked via a Google account.
In a normal case, you can only unlock the device, if you insert the correct Account with password.
I don't know.. maybe you have insert 3 time wrong credentials... why the device give your not the possibility to unlock the device.
Try an complete wipe / factory reset out of the recovery menu, so that the OS can start.
The lock isn't away, but maybe you have the possibility to insert the correct data.
In Download Mode here is what I see:

Alright I just flashed the latest rom and that fixed it.
I now know a little bit about what is going on. When I got the tablet, I set it up for me. Then I discovered googles "family link" so I set it up again for my daughter.
Child accounts have FRP protection. I dont know what triggered it, but somehow it activated recently when it discovered magisk which I had installed some time back.
Now I am super irritated and over Family Link...

My Phone was HACKED!!!! Please help me

So here’s what happened, I had a person’s email logged into my gmail and I forgot to remove it from my device. I was watching YouTube yesterday night and suddenly they turned on ‘Lost my device’ and my phone started to format on its own. But since my phone was rooted the data didn’t get formatted. But now my phone is stuck in boot loop mode and now not even getting switched on for some reason. I have an option to go to service Center and fix it but then probably they will format all my data which I couldn’t backup. Is there anyway to fix this problem without losing data? The person who did this is blackmailing me now for money. He said if you want me to unlock your phone pay this amount blah blah. Please help me
Points to be noted-
I have more than 5 emails of my own linked with my device and the main email which is used as phone’s backup email is fully safe but I didn’t know that any newly signed email can also be used to turn on find my device and reset or lock it. I thought only the primary email which is linked can do this.
U can try to flash a custom recovery and view ur file manager and backup ur files and then format your device and flash your rom and put the data in it
If you have another phone you can use that one to try to disable find my device on the 8 Pro or see which device that person is using and remove and block it from find my device. Not sure if this would work but the suggestion from above is your best chance. And if you use custom recovery you can backup everything on the phone from there flash the version of the rom your phone is on after resetting, boot it set everything up and go back into the custom recovery and restore all the data. Just don't use the same email

At least in my home country, I'd file a charge at the police.
I try this:
- remove SIM from phone,
- data + wifi OFF.
Then Format Data in ADB. This Wipes ALL in youre phone ! So copy on a PC or flash drive anything you want.
Yes, possibly factory reset might assist. Back up everything before!
Check what's backed up already, Google contacts, photos etc, then MSM.
How on earth did anyone log into your phone? Did you lend it to them?
Learning curve there I think.
If you let them log in then contact the police.
As it's not booting it could just be as simple as the boot image that's borked.
Try booting the correct image or even safe mode.
Personally I'd just MSM and put it down to experience.
