Remove /Bypass Lockscreen With Recovery by adithyan25

Recently when i restored my data using TWRP i faced a problem at lock screen.
I was not able to unlock my phone with the pin i set Earlier..So after so many attempts i was able to find a solution for that problem.(works with pattern,pin etc)



Requirements 
-----------------



1. A phone That cant be unlocked witha your Pin/Pattern 
2.Any custom recovery installed(TWRP i will say)..Get TWRP from http://evassmat.com/6jPR



Steps 
-------


1.Once You installed twrp boot into recovery mode.
2.Go to advanced>filemanager to acces the files in your phone.

3.Ggo to the /data/system folder. Scroll down and find the two files with the .key extension. Delete both of them (by tapping on the file and then tapping the �Delete� button). Then, delete all the files containing the word locksettings.

• password.key
• pattern.key
• locksettings.db
• locksettings.db-shm
• locksettings.db-wal

Once you�ve deleted all the key and locksettings files, reboot your system. If it asks you to install SuperSU, choose �Do Not Install�.

Once Android starts, your lock screen should appear, with no PIN or password prompt. Unlock your phone (yay!)   and head to Android�s Settings. Scroll down and go to Security > Screen Lock. From there, you can choose a new PIN or password to lock your phone.


Hope this helped you..Hot Thanks if this was helpful
