Recover Forgotten Pattern

How to Recover Forgotten Pattern Lock on 

Android Phones or Tablets 

1. First of all connect your device to the PC and make 

sure USB debugging is enabled.

2. Now on your Windows PC, Go to START->RUN–>Type 

CMD

3. Now one by one type the following commands in the 

command window;

“Adb shell


cd/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases

sqlite3 settings.db

update system set value=0 where 

name=’lock_pattern_autolock’;

update system set value=0 where 

name=’lockscreen.lockedout permanently’;

.quit“

4. After applying the above stated commands, reboot 

your device now. After normal reboot, you again will 

notice Lock pattern screen, but this time, you will have 

the choice to create a new pattern lock code for your 

device.

What if this does not work for, I still have got another 

way left to which will completely remove forgotten 

pattern or passcode lock but I will give you later on our 

next post
