Lock Screen: x/10 Attempts Remaining - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My G4 gives me warning about unlock attempts remaining when using a pattern or knock code (See attached image).
However, it doesn't say that it's going to wipe my device.... so I'm not sure what it's going to do if all the attempts are used. I don't want some idiot to pick up my phone and be able to wipe the device just by messing around with the unlock screen.
Can anyone confirm what happens when all the unlock attempts are used?
Is there any way to disable the unlock attempts limit `feature`?

Why on Earth would you think it wipes the device? It, like most any other phone, has a longer wait period to unlock the device if you incorrectly enter codes in.

On page 41 of the Verizon LG G4 Manual it states:
After 5 unsuccessful attempts to unlock your phone, you're prompted to enter a text phrase to confirm that you're trying to unlock your phone.
You have 10 opportunities to enter your unlock sequence. After 10 unsuccessful attempts, your phone will automatically perform a factory data reset and all of your
personal files will be erased. You will be warned after the 9th unsuccessful attempt.
If you've set a Knock Code, after 6 unsuccessful attempts, you're prompted to enter your Backup PIN to unlock your phone.

That has a lawsuit waiting to happen. Thanks Verizon... (or LG, if this is a phone design rather than carrier)

My Mom's Galaxy S5 for Verizon wipes the phone after 10 unlock attempts by default but has an option to turn it off (she discovered this the hard way when she wiped her phone because she couldn't remember her pattern).
Also, I know that the HTC One M8 does this.
Thankyou woozzy101 for finding that information, its very helpful. Now I just need to find a way to disable this idiotic 'feature'.
I just tested using an invalid Knock Code 5x times to make it use the backup pin... However when entering the backup pin it doesn't tell me that there are 'x attempts remaining' , but I only attempted to enter my backup pin once (and did it correctly) as I'm afraid of wiping my device by testing entering invalid backup pins. Is anyone brave/crazy enough to test what happens if you use all of your invalid knock code attempts then enter the backup pin incorrectly multiple times? I want to know if this will result in wiping the device... if it doesn't then I'll be using this unlock method instead of the pattern.
Also, does anyone know if this 'feature' is something that is part of Android, or a custom addition by LG or Verizon?

I downloaded the G4 manual from Verizon to familiarize myself with the phone before I got it. When I read about the factory reset I was like, ruh-roh, that is an accident waiting to happen. Way too easy to wipe someones phone messing around with it. Or if you have kids and your kid gets it and plays around with it....
I keep re-reading the Manual and the factory reset falls under "Changing Your Screen Lock". It might only do factory reset if you already have the phone unlocked and in the settings to remove the lock screen? Best Buy wont deliver my phone till June 5th (this Friday) so i cant really test it

On my EU origin H815 at the 10th attempt for a pin it simply tells me to wait 30 seconds just like it did at 5 attempts. At 15 attempts you get this;

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.

[Q] [Help] HTCdev bootloader unlock not working

I have been looking for the past couple days and have not found an obvious answer for my issue. So hopefully this isn't an answered repeat but if so pleas link ^-^.
I received my HTC One M8 dev edition the other day and was hoping to get it unlocked with probably cynogenmod installed while it was fresh but I am having issues with the bootloader unlock. So far I am able to get my unlock code from HTC and when I flash it the command window shows success but I never receive the prompt on the phone to commit to the unlock. I found out the hard way that it didn't auto accept since I soft bricked installing twrp and no longer have access to the recovery even after reflashing a stock one (but at least I have phone access again).
Has anyone had and found a solution to this problem? I was really looking forward to having a nice custom rom but seem to be stuck with the factory dev edition which is still loads better than the carrier edition. I will consider a non HTC bootloader unlock if I have to but the dev unlock seems nice and easy.
Hopefully some one can just tell me I did something retarded and all will be good ^-^.
Also I have tried Squabbi's toolkit but it ends up the same way, but less command prompts.
Thanks

You should be able to enter recovery by going to fastboot and using the volume keys to navigate to the recovery option, and picking it by pressing the power button.
To enter fastboot with your phone on, hold down the power button and vol. up until your phone turns off (20 seconds or so). AS SOON AS IT TURNS OFF, switch to power button and vol. down. Then go to the recovery option, and you are in.
And while you are in fastboot, you might as well try running the unlock key again. If it doesn't work, go back to HTCDev for another. I'm not sure how that works, but I think you could get another code if you can't get this one to work.

Currently when I try to enter recovery it enters a boot loop and freezes on the HTC screen. From what I read this is from trying to install a custom recovery with a locked bootloader. That part I can live with for now since it does not seem to be an issue, just the outcome of my mistake. My biggest issues seems to be the bootloader unlock not working. unless the two are related which could be as I am fairly new to this process.

So, have you tried the code again? And/or have you gone back to the HTCDev site for a new unlock code?
I have tried two unlock tokens so far and tried both of them several times. It's almost like I'm submitting something wrong and don't know it. When I submit the token I am including both the start and end brackets which is what it appears to be asking for and not just the string between them.

Are you copying and pasting the very first part of the code?
The part that looks like:
"(bootloader) < please cut following message >
(bootloader)" ?
IMMEDIATELY after that is what you copy and paste.
The copy should start when it says "<<<< identifier token start >>>>"
I am only copying the <<<< identifier token start >>>> and <<<< identifier token end >>>> along with the string between and leaving out the bootloader tag that is on each line.
I guess one question I should be asking is are there any settings on the phone that I need to set? I have developer options activated, usb debugging on, and the fastboot option unchecked in the power settings. Other than that the phone is stock settings. I remember my s4 needed to be in a specific usb connection mode but since they are completely different phones im not sure if that will apply here.

You seem to be doing everything right. I'm stumped. Hopefully someone else comes along with a solution. @redpoint73?
That's what I was afraid of haha. I don't know why but while I am no expert in this area I do not feel I'm ignorant either yet I always seem to have problems even when I follow the steps correctly >.<
I do appreciate the troubleshooting greatly thank you. I will keep trying things and see what I can find and if I figure it out you bet I will add it here because I can't be the only one getting stuck haha.
Can you please post the results of

Ummm, yeah . . . in fact I think I do:
Maybe I'm missing something here. But the Dev Edition comes already bootloader unlocked, and therefore should be no reason to do so.
I think the prompt to unlock never comes up on the phone, since its already unlocked.

Yes, this will tell us a lot.
Or boot into bootloader and just see if it says LOCKED, RELOCKED or UNLOCKED.
I bet it says UNLOCKED.

[Q] Cannot hard reset device, McAfee Mobile keeps asking for PIN, phone restarts

Hello, this is my first post so forgive me if I'm in the wrong area. Let me try to explain where I'm at. I purchased an HTC6500LVW from Craigslist that was restarting randomly. I figured if it boots up and works, even for a little while, I could find a solution on XDA to fix it. Well, I've tried to reset the phone a few different ways with no luck and even tried to use a tested working EXE version of the last RUU for the the verizon m7 (4.4.3) (from one of dottat's posts). The phone is locked, S-on, not rooted. The phone has a free version of McAfee Mobile app on it that is set up for security. I have never dealt with McAfee and I think their app is the cause of my problem. I can unlock the device with the McAfee PIN but it keeps prompting every few minutes. I can go into Device Administrator and revoke McAfee's permission and then uninstall the app. Then I do a factory reset and it doesn't work. Every time the phone reboots it ends up right back where I started with none of my changes saved and the McAfee app back on it with its crazy security PIN prompts. It says something about NV files when it's trying to do a factory reset. Is that some sort of security file that restores it back to where I started?
How particular is this phone when it comes to cables? I don't have original HTC data cable.

Well, I've confirmed with Verizon that McAfee doesn't come pre-installed. I talked to HTC and they were stumped. The rep said that I could send it in for a new board to the tune of $230 USD. However, HTC is sending me a data cable. I did an online chat with McAfee tech support (and I use the term loosely) and they said they would have to escalate me to a senior technician.
When I try to wipe cache partition it says:
Mount SDCARD failed 1 times
Mount SDCARD failed 2 times
Mount SDCARD failed 3 times
Mount SDCARD failed 4 times
Mount SDCARD failed 5 times
Can not mount SD Card.(No such device)
Write host_mode:0 done
Here's what it says when I try to perform a hard reset.
--Wiping data...
Restore NV for Verizon. . .
Formatting /data. . .
Backup Data Preload
Backup CW Package
Restore Data Preload
Restore CW Package
Formatting /cache. . .
Data wipe complete.
Write host_mode:0 done
Does that look correct? Because it returns to right where I left it. Same junk is still on phone from previous owner.
I talked with Senior Technician from McAfee this morning. He asked me to put phone in safe mode to uninstall third party apps (theirs). The phone would not enter safe mode by holding power button on top and then long pressing power off option and selecting to restart in safe mode. He told me if it couldn't enter safe mode he couldn't help me and I would need to contact HTC (again).
So... I call HTC and speak with a rep about entering safe mode. He has me go into power setting and uncheck fastboot then power phone down and then restart but hold volume down key as soon as I see HTC logo on boot and release after it completes boot. Now it enters safe mode.
I deactivate admin rights for McAfee and uninstall app. I restart phone in normal mode - McAfee is back. I repeat but perform factory reset through settings this time - same problem. I repeat again but perform hard reset through factory recovery - nothing.
Still dead in the water.

I looked at this last night... the pone acts like it's write protected for every partition on the phone. No form of reset while s-on works. Phone won't s-off either because nothing you change on the phone persists after a reboot.

Wow that's crazy. I wonder if maybe they had it encrypted before they sold it to him and then did a reset which yielded the same results he keeps having. I don't know any other way the entire phone could be write protected unless it was encrypted or a script running on boot that causes it.

That didn't work, it weird because my phone is like the OPs phone. Except the phone will bootloop kinda like it will either load OS for like 5-20 sec and then reboot over and over or just straight bootloop. I get same results when trying to factory restore. Also if it does go to os for the 5-20 sec then like almost every app forecloses. I tried safe mode as well same situation. Also very weird is trying to use the rru and attempting to unlock bootloader. I managed after days of frustration to get it to fastbootusb but when I run rru it says Waiting for bootloader (I was already in fastbootusb) then it reboots the phone and goes to bootloop losing connection resulting in fail of umbrick. By the way it says like USB device unknown blah blah blah it malfunctioned. Then the same reboot situation happened when trying to unlock bootloader. Any ideas how to get this phone going?

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
