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

Had same problem on GioPro reflash has solved my problem. Now I'm on Cyanogenmod 7.2, works fine.

Sometimes I will pick up my phone to do something, and it's in flight mode. I know for sure that it didn't happen on accident (if that's possivke), and it has happened on multiple roms and kernals... Stock, beast and Juggernaut/stock, synergy, bullet and jugs.
Any ideas?????

When my text messages reach cap my ring tone starts to lag and not play fully. Also my screen flickers sometimes. I'm sorry if this has been posted already but I can not find it. I assume most people on here don't reach text cap. We are most likely nerds right?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Nerds indeed ha. But I have not had an issue with any sort of ring lag. I just use the beep for messages though.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I have seen this asked once maybe around 2 weeks ago if I'm remembering right. But I don't remember if they found a solution or not. If I can find it ill let you know.
When you say they reach cap what do you mean exactly? Do you mean the point where it starts auto deleting when you reach the set number of stored messages?
If you delete some/many/all of your texts does it work right again? If you do have auto delete set , does it still happen if you turn that off?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Yeah when they start auto deleting, I have it set at 200. And yes it does stop when I delete the thread but I don't want to have to do that. It does stop if I turn off auto delete but when I did that my text app was super slow opening because it got to full.

Ok. Well at least now we can be fairly sure we know what causes it. I know its not what you are going to want to do but you could either turn off the auto delete option, manually assign a much shorter tone to any contacts that get this high, or try this.... set the limit to something like 500, then when you reach that point set it back down to 200 and see if it deletes everything back down to that point. Then set back to 500 until it happens again. Or try turning it off and when you feel its time to clean house turn it back on, let it delete everything back to 200, and turn it off again. I don't know if it'll even work this way but may be worth a try.
I know these are just workarounds, but they may be easier to deal with than messed up notification tones at least until a fix of some sort is found.
Another possibility is using a 3rd party app, but I couldn't tell you which to go with there.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
I'm going to try that 500 to 200 thing because I know I would forget to delete them. Thanks for the help.

Let me know if that actually works. I'm curious about it myself now.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Yeah it worked I already had it cap at 500. I put it down to 200 and waited a while and it works fine now. I am using the whistle ringtone that came on the phone btw.

Very cool! So when you get to 500 and set it back to 200, it does delete the 300 oldest msgs? Then you set it back to 500 till next time right?
I know that's pretty much what I said earlier. Just making sure it worked how I thought it would.
Anyway, I'm glad it did!
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Yeah it did, well I think. There is no way to count them as far as I know. It does work now though, the ringtone that is. To be honest I don't like that u gave to do this.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I don't blame you. Like I said, its just a work around, not a fix. Maybe another build would be better?
Actually I just thought of something else. A lot of audio issues have been solved by removing MusicFX.apk and .odex from /system/app. If you're rooted you could try that as well. If it fixes it flash DSP Manager to replace it. I have a copy if you need it. Just let me know

I'm not rooted but I can root. I won't have time to do this until tomorrow at about 7 pst so ill try it then.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
So I used Freegee to unlock booloaders and Adri's Root method to root the phone and everything went smoothly.
Now I usually turn off my phone to charge at night and when i do this it seems that the phone goes off, but the screen is black but glowing like the light is on inside the phone.
Is there away i can fix that? I hope this makes sense.
TIA!
Why turn it off in the first place???? And I have no answer.

i know cwm used to have that bug back in the day
so i left my phone sitting on top of my car and it blew off going about 45 mph. the screen is smashed but the phone still comes on and everything. is there a way through twrp or something that i can get the pictures and videos off of it without the use of the touch screen? i cant believe i did this but it is what it is. any ideas or help is appreciated. i also have a pin password on the phone so i cant even get to the homescreen. i figured on trying to restore an old rom in twrp back when i didnt have the pin password but i cant click restore cause of the screen. thanks
Are you able to put CWM? I don't think you need the touchscreen for CWM(not touch of course).
