default unlock code

Anyone know if there is a default device unlock code. My phone loack and I hit unlock and it wants a code. I just got it. Is there a default or overide code to get into the phone?
mine was the last four digits of my phone #
My default unlock code was 1234
Good luck.
we are talking about the device lock that you can set for like 30 second and before you can use the phone you have to enter the code?

Password Lock Program

I had this program that i downloaded off this site a few days ago that allowed me to put a password on my phone. So that everytime i locked my phone, it would have me put in my password to unlock it. Does anyone know what app this is because i hard reset my phone and its not there anymore.
You can go to Settings / Security / Device Lock. It will ask your password everytime you lock your phone.

Galaxy Nexus 4.2 set screenlock (pin) and cannot unlock

Basically, my galaxy nexus has recently been updated to 4.2. during the update i disabled my screenlock.
Yesterday I just reailsed I have had no screenlock and decided to enable it again (the same pin as previously used)
But when I woke up this morning I found that I am unable to unlock my phone using the pin that I set. It keeps saying "Wrong PIN.".
I am sure I put the correct pin, but then i just recalled when I set my pin yesterday, my typing keyboard was shown when setting my password instead of the digits only keypad.
I suspect that the screenlock might have bugged and I am now locked out from my phone.... the only thing I can do is change volume, answer calls and make emergency calls.
Internet access remains active and I am still receiving android apps updates, whatsapp and emails etc (but cant access them of course)
Is there any way I can reset my screenlock pin??? Perhaps through my web based google account or something? Or can google doing anything remotely to help?
If i cant reset my screenlock and has to factory reset, is there anyway i can backup my files / photos exactly to my PC via usb????
My phone uses stock rom (UK vodafone) and has not rooted.
any help will be greatly appreciated!!!
There is a way, but only if you've set up developer mode and allowed usb debugging.
Otherwise, plug it into your pc, get your data off it and do a factory reset from recovery.
Unless stock recovery allows adb? Which you could check. If yes, there is a file that keeps your pin information. Just delete that file and you're all set.

HTC M8 pattern password not accepted or resetting.

Somehow my password pattern is suddenly not detectable and it shows as wrong password. As there is no more option in lollipop for "forgot password" and using the gmail account to log in. How do I reset the password on a HTC M8 without doing a reset? I've tried logging into the google account, and I can use the "find" option in the device manager to locate the device, but if i press the "lock" button and try to enter a new password, for a split second it says "We have sent a lock request to the device", but then it says "Since Google has verified that a screen lock is already set, the password you entered won't be needed." Wtf is going on? I am stuck with a pattern locked phone of whose password i know but the phone doesnt detect it anymore. Is there another way to reset the password?
No replies?
Well.......
Let me start by saying that this is a delicate matter, what if the device is stolen and somebody wants to get the info or device to work without wiping it. I know that this is probably not your intention and that it is hard to prove otherwise. But the possibility could be there in the worst case scenario !
Now don't get the above personal, it's written from another point of view, as i am running HTC phones for the past 6 years and never encountered this all of a sudden at any point. So from my point of view i find it difficult to believe.
To get to your point ...... not sure if it can be done otherwise but to reset the device. Depends if it's rooted or not for instance ?
Cheers
No reply ?
According to the story, looks like either : 3rd party apps are interfering (can also be malware/virus) OR someone physically got hold of the device and changed the password(perhaps he thinks its his own)
Try restarting the device while holding the volume up button only, android will go into safe mode and disable all 3rd party apps. If the password still doesn't work, then you have 2 options:
1) if S-ON : factory reset and lose all user data
2) if S-OFF or bootloader unlocked: remove password (this is the most details I can give without being an accomplice)
