Break your Pattern / PIN / Password Lock on Android Devices…!!!

Hello everyone…!!!
Today your TechNO BaBa™ has come up with another tutorial for which you have desired for ages.

This time I’m gonna tell you how you can break the pattern of your device.

Also, we at TechNO BaBa™ would not be responsible for any bricked devices or dead kitten. So, use this at your own risk.

Now coming to the tutorial part. This thing has happened with all of us that our phone got locked and we don’t know the pattern/password/PIN or either the limit to enter password has been exceeded ( I hate those small kids 😀 ).

And the worst part is that your wifi and mobile data was off.

So here’s how you can unlock your device without factory reset. It should work on all devices with any android version except the ones that come with locked bootloaders (Damn!! those OEMs).

The best part about this tutorial is that you don’t actually need to be rooted for this.

(In case you are already rooted and have a custom recovery installed, just download the UNLOCK PHONE TOOL from down below and flash using the recovery. That’s it)

FOR THE GEEKY ONES..!!

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

  • 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”);

Now, coming to the part, where the actual action takes place.


THINGS REQUIRED  

  1. — Minimal ADB and FastBoot — installed.
  2. — UNLOCK_PHONE_TOOL_by_TechNO_BaBa —
  3. PC with “”fastboot drivers for your device”” installed (Ask Google for fastboot drivers for your device).
  4. “”Custom recovery image for your device””. You can use any custom recovery, but TWRP and CWM are preferred. (Again ask google to search a custom recovery for your device).


STEPS TO FOLLOW :

  1.  Download the “”UNLOCK_PHONE_TOOL_by_TechNO_BaBa.zip”” from the above link and place it on your device (You can place it into your external memory card).
  2.  Put the recovery.img for your device in “minimal adb and fastboot” folder on your pc.
  3. Open your device in fastboot mode. (Ask Google BaBa).
  4. Open the installation folder of “ADB and Fastboot Tool” and press “Shift + Right Click” in blank space and choose “open command window here”.
  5. Now type “fastboot devices” in the cmd window to check your device. Your device should get listed with its serial number.
  6. 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)
  7. Your phone will reboot into recovery.
  8. Now select “Install zip” and choose the “UNLOCK_PHONE_BY_TechNO_BaBa.zip” on your device.
  9. Reboot your phone.

Done!!

Now the next time you boot, you can enter any “more than 3-dots” pattern, if it asks. Now, You can set new pattern or whatever.

    1. Actually I was referring to the human tendency of breaking into things they don’t really should.
      Btw, congrats…!!!
