Can't change screen lock (set by an application)

UPDATE: Solution found
I was able to get the administrator of the "Good" application at my company to push out a policy for android users to force a longer password. This forced a new password when I opened the application and corrected the problem.
Maybe this will help someone in the future.
I installed an app (Good for Enterprise) to be able to access work email/etc. During setup it required me to set a device password. I set it, through the Good application, but only set it to a 2 character password. I have since uninstalled the application and now I can not change my password. When I attempt to change it I am alerted that password must be 4 characters. Thankfully the device still locks and unlocks with the 2 character password but I was hoping to change it.
Can I mod a file directly to change password or full in thinking it is not set?
Any help would be appreciated.

Never had to try it, but google search found this:
The password is stored on plain text in this file "/data/data/com.android.mms/shared_prefs/com.android.mms.categoryInfo.xml" either read it or delete the file to reassert the password. Deleting the file will not affect the secure box messages in anyway.

I can not set a VPN and install the certificate - h818P

I have a question about VPN and certificate installation. My phone is H818P and I'm on stock android 6. If I want to set up a connection to a VPN (home server), the table with the settings covered by the unlock pattern - I type the pattern (correctly) but the table with settings disappears - this is repeated all the time. Same problem for android 5.1.
My other problem is installing the certificate for AdCleaner - the installation requires a pattern + pin (the pin needs to be created whenever I create a pattern). When installing a certificate, I enter the pattern and pin correctly, but the pin returns my phone as faulty and the installation does not take place. Same problem with Android 5.1.
Android 7 (v29a) is working correctly. Unfortunately, I can not use this version because it is not possible to shoot video at 60fps (V10 camera port does not work). Is there any possibility to shoot in android 7 videos at 60 fps - some hack stock applications?
I am sorry for my bad English

Changing lock screen password returns to lock screen; Locked out

So I have got kind of a strange buggy problem. I have an LG G4 with Android 6.0. I recently encrypted my phone with the standard Android encryption method. I used a six character password for this. After about a month my phone prompted that I had to change my password because it had expired. I must change the password in order to gain entry to the phone. So, I click 'change password', type in my old password, click continue and then it returns me to the lock screen?! Locked! It never actually lets me change my password. So I'm kinda stuck.
I tried using software like dr.fone to gain entry to at least save my files, but my phones default pc connection setting is charging and since I can't gain entry, I can't set it to MTP sharing. So I can't even gain entry through my PC.
Is this a known bug? I couldn't find anything on the internet about this. Anybody have any idea? I know I can just factory reset, but I really want to try saving my files. There's some pretty important stuff on my phone.
Thanks in advance,
Greetings,
Luca

Bootloader is locked I assume.
So your phone will not let you log in until you change the password but will not let you change the password
