The graphic key is very reliable protection data on tablet computer, but sometimes the owner of the gadget himself becomes its hostage. For example, if he forgets his key. It is also not uncommon for a device to fall into the hands of a child, who, through random actions, creates graphic password, saves and, of course, does not remember it. And it becomes impossible to log in.
To everyone's joy, this situation is not fatal. In most cases, the tablet can be unlocked by resetting the pattern key. It happens that you have to sacrifice information stored in the device’s memory, but more often you can get by with “less bloodshed.” Let's look at six ways to unlock your Android tablet if you can't remember your pattern password.
Via SMS
This option is one of the quick and simple ones, but it will only help those who foresaw the situation with the gadget being accidentally blocked and installed the SMS Bypass application on it in advance, and also received superuser rights (root). Naturally, the device must be equipped with a SIM card reader.
So, how to unlock an Android tablet with via SMS Bypass if you forgot the pattern key?
- Install the application from Google Play. It's not free, but it costs only $1.99. To install you need access to global network and a Google account.
- Provide the application full access to the device.
- Install in SMS Bypass secret code to reset graphic key(its default value is 1234). To prevent outsiders from doing this, it is advisable to come up with a more complex code.
- When blocked, send an SMS with the text “secret_code reset” to the SIM card number of your tablet from another phone. For example, “1234 reset”. The pattern will be reset.
Through a phone call
Pay attention! This option has one serious limitation - it only works on Android version 2.2 or lower. And such gadgets are quite rare today.
How to unlock a tablet using a call if you forgot the pattern key?
- Make a call to the locked device from another phone.
- After receiving a call to Android 2.2 it becomes possible to enter the “Settings” application -> “Protection” -> “Screen lock” and change the pattern.
Another option is to call from the locked tablet itself. After dialing the number and pressing the call button, the desktop literally opens for a moment. If you manage to click on the application icon (any) at this time, you will be able to enter “Settings” and reset the key.
Using a Google Account
After five unsuccessful login attempts, the “Forgot your pattern key?” button will appear on the tablet screen.
Click on it, log into your Google account and go through the procedure for restoring access.
If your device does not have Internet access, you can use one of the following methods to get it:
- Click the “ Emergency call”, dial the number *#*#7378423#*#* , in the menu “ Service tests" select "WLAN" and connect to wireless network Wi-Fi.
- Install a SIM card with a sufficient amount of money in your account and activated option Internet connection.
- Connect to your tablet via USB-LAN adapter network cable provider.
Via the Recovery menu
Recovery Mode
Recovery is a special recovery mode from which system settings are reset to the state as after purchase, device firmware is flashed, superuser rights are obtained, data is restored from backup copy etc.
Pay attention! To get into it, you need to turn off the tablet and when you turn it on again, press the volume up or down rocker together with the Power button (each manufacturer has its own button combination).
This can also be done using the ADB Run program, which is installed on a computer running Windows or Linux. To enter the menu Recovery tablet you need to connect it via a USB cable to your PC, having previously enabled USB debugging in the “Options” -> “Developer Options” menu.
After that run ADB Run, select “Reboot” from the menu and then “Reboot Recovery”.
Recovery mode is available on the vast majority of gadgets running Android, but not all. If yours doesn’t have it, install it separately - with it you will have another way to unlock your tablet if you forgot both the pattern key and your Google account. To install you can use ADB Run in FastBoot mode or the Odin flash utility (for Samsung gadgets).
Unblocking
To unlock the device you need to delete the file /data/system/gesture.key. But in Recovery menu No file manager. In order for it to appear there, you need to install it in advance. For example, the Aroma File Manager program is perfect, which opens access to system files directly from Recovery.
If USB debugging is enabled on your tablet, you can also use ADB Run to remove gesture.key by selecting the menu item Manual and running the command adb shell rm /data/system/gesture.key.
Another way to remove this file involves installing a special update that only works if there is Recovery section. This update resets the pattern key.
Via data reset
Resetting data is one of the extreme measures when no other methods helped. It is not recommended to start with it for the reason that after this you will lose your saved SMS, phone book, installed applications and some other data not saved in the Google account. Pictures and melodies will remain in place.
To reset your data, you will also need to enter the Recovery menu and select the option wipe data|factory reset. Let's figure out how this is done on devices of some brands.
Samsung
- On tablets: turn off the device and press the volume up rocker and the Power button before turning it on.
- On new smartphone models: turn off the device and restart click Power buttons, Home and volume rocker.
- On older smartphone models: turn off the device and press the Power and Home buttons before turning it on again.

Flashing method
Reflashing the device is the most difficult and risky method. You can only resort to it if you have forgotten the pattern key, you do not have the Internet and you do not know how to unlock the tablet in other ways. It is assumed that you know how to flash Android devices and have the appropriate firmware for all necessary tools you already have.
The official source of original firmware is the website of the manufacturer of your device. All other sources can aggravate the problem, turning the gadget into a “brick”.
For firmware individual models mobile Android devices The following software is used:
- For Samsung – the Odin utility, which we have already mentioned.
- For LG – KDZ Updater.
- For Sony – Flsahtool.
- For devices different brands– FastBoot from the Android SDK.
- For devices on chips MediaTek(which are mainly used on Chinese gadgets) – SP Flash Tool.
To install the firmware universal instructions no - you must first find it on the website of the developer of the flash utility and study it in detail. If everything goes without incident, you will receive a pristine tablet with a brand new Android OS. There will be no trace left of the graphic key on it.
After such cleaning, the tablet will return to its standard form for this model, as if it were out of the box. Let's look at all the ways to reset the system. Any hard reset looks like rebooting the tablet and formatting the information in it. In each specific case, the operation can be performed differently, for example, by clearing the SD card or resetting the pattern.
Before reset system settings don't forget to save your data located on the tablet (SMS, contacts and other records). After reset, everything user posts are erased from memory along with the settings.
