Forget Pattern Lock, How to reset/bypass it? - Sony Xperia M

Need help here, I forget the lock screen pattern. I'm still new with Xperia M. Can someone help me to bypass the clock screen or reset it?
Please help me.

As far as I know, if you enter a wrong pattern repeatedly until the phone locks up, it'll ask the password from your Google account and you should be able to reset the pattern then...

locked phone help

i locked my dash and i thought i knew the code but i guess i dont because it wont work, wht should i do?
How did you lock your phone, with a device lock or SIM PIN? Are you prompted that you have 10 tries (SIM) or do you see "Unlock" over the left soft key when the device turns on? If the second, a hard reset will clear the password.

in my phone, when you put pattern lock, you would be asked for a security question.. you may try pressing "forgot pattern" in the lockscreen to answer that security question to unlock your phone..
you can take the batery off, boot in to CWM, do the factory reset, and flash your room again

If you encrypt the phone you will get a password at the bootup. You should remove the password for the lockscreen before you encrypt the device. Now remember if you encrypt then later decide you don't want it you have to perform a factory reset on the device.

G4 Won't Unlock

Hi,
I am experiencing something very weird with my G4. Started this morning once I got into work.
I woke up, read my messages and then locked the phone while I went to get dressed. Put the phone in my pocket then left for work. When I arrived at work the phone would not unlock. I repeatedly put my unlock code into the keypad and every time it told me it was incorrect.
I hadn't changed the code, and I know what I am putting in is definitely correct, but I still can't unlock my phone to use it.
What can I do!?
Thanks
In addition, I have gone to the Android Device Manager web page and locked my phone from there with a password in the hope I could recover it that way. While my home screen now says it is locked by ADM, it won't let me enter any passwords - there is a pad lock icon on the screen, but thats all and nothing responds to me pressing the screen.

Sorry for asking the obvious : do you have tried to reboot? It sounds like the gatekeeper service is crashed which should be fixable by just reboot.
If you tried that already:
Do you had enabled USB debugging? If so you can delete the gatekeeper files and after a reboot it will be unlocked.
Or
Is your bootloader unlocked and do you have twrp installed? then you can do the same in twrp.
EDIT
----------
Here are the details if adb or twrp is in place:
