This thing has happened with all of us that our phone got locked and we don't know the pattern/password/PIN or either we ran out of our chances to enter it.So here's how you can unlock your device without factory reset. It should work on all devices with any android version. You don't require root for this.
The pattern is stored in /data/system/gesture.key and password/PIN is stored in /data/system/password.key. So, what I did is, I just deleted the "gesture.key" and "password.key" files.
Here's the updater-script
Code:
ui_print("Mounting /data");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/data");
ui_print("Removing saved pattern/password/pin...");
delete("/data/system/gesture.key");
delete("/data/system/password.key");
ui_print("Unmounting /data");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/data");
THINGS REQUIRED
1) minimal adb and fastboot tool installed
2) PC with fastboot drivers for your device installed (Check your device forum for fastboot drivers for your device)
3) Custom recovery image for your device. You can use any custom recovery, but twrp and cwm are preferred.
You can search in your device forum for custom recoveries.
WHAT TO DO
1) Download the zip from the attachments and place it on your device.
2) Put the recovery.img for your device in "minimal adb and fastboot" folder on your pc.
2) Open your device in fastboot mode. (Search your device forum for this)
3) Press "Shift + Right Click" in adb and fastboot folder, and choose "open command window here"
4) Now type "fastboot devices" in the cmd window to check your device. If it says, no device found then you have not installed fastboot drivers correctly.
5) Now, type "fastboot boot recovery.img" (you must use the exact name of the recovery image you downloaded or you can rename it to recovery.img)
6) Your device will reboot into recovery.
7) Now select "Install zip" and choose the UNLOCK_PHONE_BY_SASUKAY.zip on your device.
8) Reboot your device.
Done!!
Now the next time you boot, you can enter any "more than 3-dot" pattern, if it asks. You can set new pattern or whatever, now.
