Unlock Galaxy S2

A friend of mine accidentally had her lock pattern changed by her daughter, and cannot unlock her phone. Any way to bypass this so she can get it unlocked?

Try to unlock a couple times with the wrong pattern and i think it should ask for gmail&password
-My life is a shooting range, people never change-

Tried that. It just kicks her back to the gmail login screen. But, she can login from her computer just fine. Weird.

When you say "does not work anymore" do you get an error of some sort? Emergency calls only?
What did you flash?
Is voice OK but not data?

Ive figured this out;
No imei
When i call *#1234# PHONE is none
And i've flashed giopro and a custom kernel from else in this forum (gio section...)

Btw what do you mean with voice??
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda premium

By voice I meant just that: voice calls where you talk to someone else, the whole “Mr. Watson, come here, I want to see you.” that started it all.
Did you try to unlock the phone with the stl5 method? This is the usual cause of no IMEI, and cause for replacement.

Actually i wanted to set the cpu to a higher frequency and then...
A terrible thing happend.
My phone rebooted and the sim card was not recognized anymore...
Just a normal vodafone nl simcard
Any ideas of how to get the imei code back, i've got the origional one behind the battery;
Only using this phone for about 2 months
Should i go to the vodafone store or the samsung store?

I had some of the same problem, beause the launcher lockscreen seems to override the ordinary lock screen, so the pin prompt dont show up. I went in to setings and turned my pin of, then it worket. I just for fun activated pattern. But the launcher lockscreen also skipped the pattern lock. It just showed up for two sec and then the launcher lock was on. Sorry if you dont understand what I write. Give it a try, if you not allready have tried. In cyanogen you have options to turn this off, if you use pin, password, pattern lock.
Regards

Ive got IMEI problems not launcher problems,
But still thnx

[Q] RAT Selection

Just curious if anyone has figured out a way to get passed the "RAT selection option is restricted" message to select specific bands (*#2263#). It doesn't appear that the old fix of removing the sim card with the phone on will work for us; the sim card is too close to the battery and maintains contact until the battery is removed.
Edit: So I found a way, if you turn off your phone, pull out the sim card, turn it back on and enter the code you can select a band to force (in my case LTE). Then you have to turn it off and put the sim back in, the setting will be persistent. This is a huge pain in the ass though, so if anyone has a better way I'm all ears!

Yeah that is pretty much what I said in my edit, the airplane mode stuff isn't necessary, I was just wondering if anyone found a way that didn't involve rebooting your phone multiple times

Until someone makes an RAT unlocked radio I thiank thats the only way.

[Q] Help retrieving data. Can't find any way.

This phone was my dads until he got a new one, but he only has a limited amount of time to retrieve the data before it goes back to T-mobile or else he has to pay money for the broken phone core. It was dropped, and broke the digitizer but not the screen. As of now, the display doesn't work at all, but I can hear the phone turn on just fine. I have been trying to think of how I can access the internal storage without tearing the phone apart and getting to the storage directly(not sure if that would work either).
- Not rooted
- USB debugging not enabled. I thought I might be able to get to the storage via adb, but that will be useless without usb debugging activated.
If I need any more information, let me know.

Unfortunately, a solution was never found in that thread. Same exact problem though. The only difference is that my screen doesn't work at all. Completely black. The only thing that reacts to touch is the very very bottom of the screen below the capacitive buttons. Without USB debugging enabled, I'm in the same boat as the other users in that thread.

It's been a while since I used kies, so I don't remember much about it, but is there a way to make a backup using kies?

Does the digitizer recognize anything, or is it really FUBAR?
Edit - actually read the last post by OP...
Is there a way to turn debugging on in stock recovery?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium

Well, I tested it myself and I was able to connect the phones to kies and create a backup without ever touching the device. I don't have any security lock on my phone though, so it might not work if the screen is locked? I'm also not sure if you can back up everything, or just photos, videos, etc. Hopefully at least that will help someone with the same problem who searched and found this thread...

Digitizer is completely screwed up. No responding to anything on the screen, and the screen is completely black. Even if I was able to get to stock recovery, I wouldn't be able to see what I was doing. I'll look into Kies and see if it will work.

Well seeing as how stock recovery responds to side buttons, someone with stock recovery could map it out for you...
Also, can't you get to ADB from recovery?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium

Is it possible to get to adb through recovery? I still don't have usb debugging enabled, so unless there is a way to activate it in recovery, then I don't know if it'll work.

It may work... Its worth a shot. Also, Google is your friend on this topic.

Can't use a lock screen security?

I'm running hyper drive rls2, I'm not sure if I'm missing something or just drawing a blank, but I can't set any lock screen security. This is a fresh flash and can't quite figure out what's wrong. I have no active device administrators.
Thanks.
Sent from my SM-G900T using xda app-developers app

Your screen shot shows you have 2 lock screen capability allowed by your administrator which would indicate you are using something on your device which has restricted the access of your device.
Perhaps you are using your phone with company data via an Exchange account (Touchdown??) Perhaps.
If so, that is done on purpose and should have nothing to do with the ROM you are using.

I don't have any exchange accounts or anything. I'm gonna flash a new rom and see if it stays the same. I like this rom that's the only reason I was trying to figure it out.
Sent from my SM-G900T using xda app-developers app

Same here! I've unchecked all device administration, cleared credentials and decrypted everything! The exact same things are greyed out and I'm using hyperdrive also. It actually started happening when I upgraded to kitkat. It was fine when I was on 4.3. Any suggestions?
