    My phone is doing the exact same thing. I set up an gamil account thru my phone and my daughter was playing with my phone trying to guess my password and my phone locked up on me. I tried using my login information and it saying that it's incorrect. I went online and changed my password and it's still saying it's incorrect. Can someone please help me????

You should not lose phone numbers as they are on the sim and on google so do a master reset, Turn off phone hold home and left for 24 seconds and phone screen will show an exclamation triangle , open the key pad and press alt w Then turn G1 on again with the on button while holding the home button. It should come back on with the touch the adroid screen like new. Hope this helps it worked for me when I had same problem , Lost lots but numbers were safe and droid stuff easy and quick to re load up again

You can use Google /Samsung account to unlock the phone. If you forget your account detail somehow and don't want to factory reset causing the data loss, you can only use the Broken Android Data Extraction to unlock your phone.

How do I unlock

1. Enter wrong pattern 5 times and wait for 30 seconds.
2. Select "Forgot pattern" and enter your email account username and password.
3. Make sure you use the same account that was used to activate the device and double check the password by logging in to that email account in a browser.
4. If you don't have access to the original email account, you will need to do a hard reset and loose your settings and apps on the devcice. The data on the memory card will not be wiped though.
Note: if you can't remember your email password, you will have to visit the email service support page to get it reset.
