locked out of my phone
 

i dont know what i was thinking when i set a long phrase for my lock-code, i forgot it within an hour and now i cant seem to unlock my phone. i tried restarting but no use, searched but couldnt find a solid answer. so I'll ask

what should i do to recover my lock code (if its possible)
or is there anyway that i can access the storage and get my data from it ?

I think there is a method but still if you don't find try a Flash.

Visit this Thread:

and here, try the Replace Operating System flash option.

Use fix malf state method to mount your partitions and extract data from them...

I think you may be able to flash an open mode kernel and get rid of the lock too; not really sure as i haven't come across such a scenario yet...

You didn't read it all and specifically the Option I gave you.

it says "User data is retained"

flashed the open mode kernel, now im inside the phone but the spinning squirlce is there for more than 10 minutes now.

fix malf state now to extract your data...follow till step 7 so you can rescue all your data first...

Once you have your data you can just do a zeroize flash...

i think sync and connect works now i can extract data from my docs but can i load data from /home/user/ ??
i cant seem to get in malf state properly :/

EDIT: okay i can use the phone now, but does anyone know where the file for lock code is saved ? i dont want zeroize and lose all my texts :/

if you can use SDK mode too then just use N9QTweak SMS backup and get your messages out of there...
