Problem with hard reset and keyboard lock - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I bought the phone on and came well allegro, fun, work.
But I have a problem, joined. I lock on keyboard, and I have a problem. You have to unlock the screen presets. Just someone founded a pattern and you have to enter it.
I called the seller and he said that he does not know this pattern.
What I can I do? You can somehow reset the smartphone? Is there in August of that you can not do
greet and wait for answer

My SIM card does not start :(

Hello,
I have problem - When I turn on my BA and field for PIN entering appears I enter my PIN code and click OK and then it does not go further it just still stuck on PIN entering screen. When I put another Sim Card on my phone wich dont have PIN protection its just No Service I have no idea what is going on, please help me.
Edit: some info: I didint checked it on WM2003 because when I bought phone I instantly installed WM6 because I'm buying and resseling phones and this never happened before. I also upgraded radio to 1.15 but still no changes.
The same occurred to me today, my phone freezed while I was typing an e-mail, so I pushed the reset button. After booting (TNT wm6) and pressing the unlock code, my phone freezed.
Sometimes it allows me to enter my pin (4 digits), sometimes I can only enter one or just nothing.
When I tried with another SIM it worked.. I'm at home now and I tried to boot without a SIM, but it still freezes after the unlock code.
I'm thinking of flashing my phone back to the original firmware to check if that solves the problem. The only problem is that I’ll lose all my messages. I don't care much about the Calendar and contacts, since I sync with exchange..
Anyone has a solution other than flashing a new OS?
Phone model: i-mate K-Jam
jupieee i fixed it i just had to downgrade to wm2003 and then enter unlock code. dont know why it didint worked on wm6 and wm5
probably a flash gone bad. or another GSM/3G Band conflict...
Read my thread about no phone/ no service here... some pointers may help
I know how to do
Just use the stick press the reset hole when the screen is made of four color after you have changed the battery.

problem with unlocking my artemis

You have tried 10 times. please wait for retry
i kept it on charger for 2 days on without touching it as i know i can enter the code for a while but nothing happened
i flashed the phone with the same and difference operator roms and still the same
anyway to get out of this
Regards
This is just an idea, don´t know if it works but, did you try make a soft or hard reset? i will show you tried 10 times but may be let you enter the code.
Good luck

Same problem:
''You have tried 7 times. Please wait for retry''
How long do I have to wait ???
It seemns nobody find a way to solve this. I payed for unlock code and now it's useless.

Samsung i780 cannot remove the PIN lock!

Hi all,
One of the users in our company has locked himself out of his i780 by forgetting the 4-digit PIN he set on the device (not the SIM PIN).
The problem I have is that it is running one of the older ROM's that did not have the hard reset button combination on it so I cannot reset it at all. It also won't enter bootloader mode using the usual combination (although this may be because of the countdown timer on the device not accepting input).
Anyone got any ideas on what I can do next?
Thanks.

I wonder if you can short certain pins on the flash chip to destroy the checksum and thus cause the device to reset itself - this method was used in the LinkSys WRT54G router and some MP3 players..
did you try reflashing the phone with new firmware? might help since the pin is set on operating system level (afaik), the firmware upgrade is done on bootloader level.

But he can't get into the loader mode, so Mirage is a no-go.. I suppose the phone doesent even connect to ActiveSync, hm? If it would then the official HL1/2 updaters are able to reset the phone into the loader mode and flash it
Correct, I cannot get it into bootloader mode because the usual key combo does not work and activesync refuses to recognise the phone until the PIN is entered so I cannot use Mirage or the official updaters!
Looks like I'll have to send it off to Samsung!
Cheers guys.
try contacting them first by phone and see if they can't help out. otherwise you'll have to wait for a looong time
Yeah, I've sent phones to them before, they do take a while.
They say they need them back to take the lock off so looks like it'll take a while!
Moral of this story: Don't forget that damn PIN!

Doesn't it wipe itself after the 50th attempt?
How old is that version? before Nov2007? Can you post the version number? something like "i780XXHA4"

By Omnia this ok
1. type *7465625*638*# to set
2. type your MCC/MNC code (list here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Network_Code), e.g.26003 for Polish ORANGE
3. type your new NCK (12345678), then OK
3. type *#7465625 to check your lock
4. type #7465625*638*# and type your NCK (12345678)
5. enjoy.

touch pro 2 wont accept unlock

Hi .
read a few threads about this problem, but they seem old - is there any way to unlock the tp2 ?
i have used the same pin for over a year and suddenly it said "incorrect password" when trying to unlock.
now it doesnt even give a "response" when tapping the unlock button.
i can tap in an emergency number and call that but nothing more.
when i try to connect to pc i get error that device is unlocked and pls unlock to sync.
any tips ?
Assuming that you are referring to the WM OS pin code, no. There is no way short of a hard reset to clear that out.
Sorry. Hope you have a somewhat recent backup. Otherwise you are SOL.

Forgotten pin lock code

Hello everyone. I have an lg g3. It's the International d 855 model. I have a pin code set up on it but i forgot the code and I'm guessing because it is an international model, itit not giving me the option to hit forget my password and reset it through my Google account like most androids have. I tried to use the hardware keys to do a hard factory reset as I saw online but it didn't work. Instead of allowing me to go into recovery mode or giving me the factory reset option, the phone simply went into safe mode. I tried to do different combinations of pin codes but I gave up after trying at least 200 different ones. Is there another way to bypass the pin lock screen and do a factory reset? Any help would be great. Thanks.

I'm always cautious of people who join Xda just to ask to unlock their phones because of a "forgotten pin" but hey it's common knowledge so what you need to do is go into download mode mode and flash a new stock firmware look here >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089 <<.
Whats the use of a pinlock code if it's so easy to bypass it,flash stock rom if you nicked an LG G3 and ready to go ?(nicked as example ofcourse)
Lol touche it is so easy to bypass bit thats cool cause u can nick mine and as soon as i know its gone ill remotely wipe it myself and turn on the gps plus lg built the kill switch on these phones
