I'm locked ouf of my Phone - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Yesterday before going to bed i decided to change my pattern lock. After changhing i entered airplane mode then i've gone to bed.
THis morning i forgot the new pattern lock and using google's mail and password doesn't work cause i'm in airplane mode.
Any idea to solve without a full wipe?

Pull your battery and restart, should nudge it out of airplane mode.

Nope, it stays in airplane mode
EDIT: Solved
Holding power botton from the lock screen it's possible to disable airplane mode. I'm so used to enable/disable it from quicksetting that I forgot this.

Glad that you solved it, was reluctant to suggest that as I'm not sure what ROM you're running and I don't think stock ROM have that option.

Can't get out of airplane mode, HELP!

I'm stuck in Airplane mode but I never even turned it on. If I uncheck it, it sits greyed out at Enabling wireless connections... HELP!
This might sound stupid, but have you tried restarting the phone? Sometimes when I lose signal and can't get it back I try switching to Airplane, but it just sits there... then when I restart, Airplane Mode is on.
I'm thinking something locked up, but I'm not knowledgeable enough to know.
I know that's not your exact problem, but I figured it might be related. :x
Press the on/off button and hold it down. after a few seconds you will see several options, one is airplane mode..it will indicate on or off. To change it just tap on the screen over the message. release the button and press the arrow key at the bottom of the phone to return to the regular screen
Try the steps above, if not pull the battery and see if it's still enabled after it boots.

[Q] Automatic Aeroplane Mode?

Ive had my GN for a week and the phone has gone into aeroplane mode twice. It seems to me that once the phone has been in deep sleep for over 2 hours it decides to switch too Boeing flight mode.
I already have a faulty screen so its going back anyway but I would like you guys too know just in case you come across the same problem. Anybody else have the strange occurrence?

I've had it for about a week. I put my phone into airplane mode before and its just kind of hung. Like its thinking about switching the radio off. Can't turn the airplane mode back off. Only thing left is to switch it off and restart it.
I put my phone into airplane mode on and off sometimes out so it can find the network again. Used to do it with my X10.
Though its never gone into airplane mode on its own. It just sometimes hangs when trying to go into that mode.
Barometric pressure sensor?
Has happened to me once, had to reboot to get out of aeroplane mode.
happened to me today as well.. very unexpected..
I just tried it. I pushed the power button and held for a second. The modes switch screen came up and I selected airplane mode on. As soon as the screen went away (1-2 seconds), there was an airplane icon in the notification bar.
Repeated the process to turn it off, and the airplane mode turned off quickly with no airplane icon in the Notif. bar.

@NatTheCat, do you actually see the "airplane" icon on the notification bar when it switches over? (Not sure if its a similar problem as mine - it feels like it has gone into airplane mode, but don't actually get the icon)
My one experience of putting my phone in airplane mode (manually). I hit the toggle from the power button, nothing seemed to happen. No airplane icon. I went back to power button menu and my airplane mode was grayed out... so I rebooted my phone and haven't tried again yet.
I just tried this earlier, it took almost 4 minutes to actually enter airplane mode. It's almost like the processes it was trying to connect online were hanging it up and wouldn't release. During this time, the airplane mode icon was greyed out and I could not switch airplane mode off. Once ap mode actually kicked in and the icon appeared, I was able to turn it back off through the power menu.

Stuck on aeroplane mode

Hi fellos and fellas,
I let my son play angry birds this morning (as you do!) and I usually turn on aeroplane mode when I give it to him.
So when he was finished I turned aeroplane mode back off and it is stuck there.
I have tried messing about with the settings and widgets, turning it on and off, restarting etc.
What is curious is the menu that pops up when you hold the power button, aeroplane mode button says is off and the button is greyed out.
Although, in settings, where it has the switches it says turning off ...
I'm not rooted, I'm running stock, WiFi, Bluetooth is working
Any help!
Try another simcard ?

[Q] screen not turning off

Strange issue
a new samsung s4 mini, stock rom.
the screen will not turn off. whenever it enters sleep mode, the screen blacks out for a second, then turns back on.
this happens when it goed to sleep automatically, or when pressing the powerbutton
tried factory reset, same problem (no extra programs installed)
installed a wakelock ap, but that does not really show a reason why it should be turning on?
Anyhting obvious i am missing, or should i just return this to the dealer.

Have you installed any app like "Screen ON"?
I ve got this problem from time to time, when I lock the phone it wakes up for 5s and then turns the screen off although I have had twice the situation where the screen was on all the time till I pressed off button again...strange.
Had this problem long time ago with Note 1 and somebody said that the phone wakes up if it looses the signal and searching for it again......
dont know......
Im not really sure but might as well try.
Have you turned on Daydream ?
You can find it in Settings 》My Device 》 Display
Make sure it is off.
If that hasnt worked, if you have a cover on take it off and then see if you still have that problem. Maybe the cover is too tight and its presing on a button.
If that doesnt work, then now lets turn off Smart Stay. Swipe down your notification bar and look for Smart Stay and turn it off.
If none of these have worked then I'm not sure :/
Hope your problems gets fixed.

notification pull down bar, home, multi-task buttons not working!

So my phone was in my pocket and it was getting hot so i took it out, and saw it on the boot animation. I left it and it didn't go past this boot screen so i held in the power button to restart it, and it restarted. Only when i turned it on, my 4G plan was active, and I could no longer use the notification pull down bar. I can swipe down from the top once, but not a second time to access quick settings. Also my circle and square (home and multitask) buttons are not working, the phone vibrates when i touch them but nothing happens, only the triangle (back) button works. On the lock screen, there is no longer an option to swipe right for the camera, and double pressing the home button to activate the camera does nothing, it just turns the display on and off. I have tried putting the phone into safe mode to see if an app was causing the problem, but the problem persists, when i turned my phone back on normally, the widgets on my home screen had disappeared. I tried switching accounts to the guest account but it says 'switching to guest' and then seems to fail to switch to the guest account and quickly says 'switching to (main account name)', before returning to my main account. Any ideas, I really need the problem fixed, thanks in advance!
stock rom??
my advice if you cant fix it try to do a factory reset do it like your last resource cause it wipes all data
another advice you should always have a backup you never know when **** like this happens
Thanks for the reply.
Yeah I am running stock ROM, so strange that this has happened.
I am struggling to backup photos etc as i would usually enable usb debugging and just click and drag the folders over to my PC, but it says on my settings page that 'developer options are not available to this user', so I am having to use another photo backup website, which is annoying.
This happened to be when I manually updated from MMB29Q to MHC19J without flashing MMB29V first. Only solution was to boot into TWRP to backup my files and then factory reset.
