Google G1 locked out

Ive locked myself out of my G1 after entering the wrong entry code too many times and was wondering if there is a helpline for it? The email address I gave was incorrect as i didnt put a underscore so I'm not sure what to do? Any one know if there are any helplines??

Cheers,

    pattern entry to many times, now im locked out my phone and my google account is not working.

  • Anonymous Apr 23, 2009

    I (drunkenly) forgot my pattern and locked myself out of the phone.

    Pressing 'forot pattern' brings you to a gmail login screen but despite entering the correct details it just refreshes saying my usename and password are incorrect.

    My username and password still work with gmail on my PC.

    I have tried adding '@gmail.com' and '@googlemail.com' onto the end of my username to no avail.

    WTF is going on with that? I don't want to reset my phone because its rooted so it will just brick unless I have the hacked image on the SD card, but I don't have the hacked image and can't put it on because without unlocking my phone, I can't mount the SD card and get access to it via my computer!!!! Grrrr...

T-mobile is the only wireless provider that will even work with this phone....so kinda a no brainer....;)

if you had too many incorrect pattern attemps, the handset will automatically lock you out of your handset....if thats the case, the only thing left to do, is either go to the link i have below and trying to restore the forgotten username and/or password....just answer the questions the webside asks for and you can log in again....

http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=46346&fpUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Faccounts%2FForgotPasswd%3FfpOnly%3D1%26continue%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fmail.google.com%252Fmail%252F%253Fhl%253Den%2526tab%253Dwm%2526ui%253Dhtml%2526zy%253Dl%26hl%3Den%26service%3Dmail%26ltmpl%3Ddefault&fuUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Faccounts%2FForgotPasswd%3FfuOnly%3D1%26continue%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fmail.google.com%252Fmail%252F%253Fhl%253Den%2526tab%253Dwm%2526ui%253Dhtml%2526zy%253Dl%26hl%3Den%26service%3Dmail%26ltmpl%3Ddefault&hl=en

if that fails you will have to reset your handset and create a new login with your phone.

the handset will need to be powered off, then press and hold the house and the red buttons at the same time until you see a triangle with a yellow "!" inside....when you see this screen release those keys and slide open the keypad and press the "ALT" and "W" keys at the same time. the handset will turn off and power on again and walk you through the setup. here you can either attempt to sign in again with the underscore or you can create a new account.

*******careful, any new numbers you added since you had the g1 will be lost if you cannot log in again with the same username and password******

good luck! :)

Need g1 puk unlock code

These directions are for an AT and T phone, but other than that, are the same for any carrier. A PUK (PIN Unlock Key) code is required to unlock SIM cards that have become locked following three successive incorrect PIN entries. If your SIM card becomes locked, you will need to get a PUK code from your phone carrier to unlock your SIM card. You can obtain your phone's PUK code from your carrier in one of these ways: Log in to Your account.online Use a Technical Support Chat Contact your carriers Customer Care Get Your Phone's PUK Code Online Go to the Phone/Device page. From the My Phone/Device screen, select the Unblock SIM Card link under the My Make & Model heading. The Unblock SIM screen will display your PUK code and will give you instructions for unblocking your SIM Card. Once you receive your PUK code, you will need to enter it into your phone to set a new PIN code. Note: If you enter the wrong PUK code 10 times in a row, your SIM card will be invalidated, and you will need to purchase a new SIM Card. The phone will display the following error: "PUK blocked call operator

My g1 says sim card is PUK-locked how do i fix this

At the time when you enter a wrong pin number three times the phone asks you for a PUK number. The PUK code is generally eight digit number. This PUK number is an unlocking code which helps you to unlock the phone and use it. If you enter a wrong PUK number 10 times than you simcard gets rejected. Then you will have to buy a new simcard. It might happen that your phone might ask you for PUK2 after you enter your PUK number. You can find the PUK code is in your SIM card documentation Starter Pack. If you do not have this then contact your phone service provider. Your cell phone service provider can give you the PUK code once they have confirmed your identity to prevent any stolen SIM access.

I locked my phone with a pattern code, forgot what it was, attempted to open it too many times....with the wrong code and now it says on the screen to enter my Google account to get my phone unlock but...

Your IMEI numbers are needed to unlock your HTC G1 mobile phone. Reveal the codes by pressing *#06# on your phone keypad. Then after getting the information, please go to an HTC UNLOCK CODE website for you to be provided with the correct codes. You also may need to know the country and network the phone was purchased from. thanjs

Ive locked myself out of my G1 after entering the wrong entry code too many times, now they want a user name and password but i don't have internet..is there any way to get around that???

Remove backup battery, install and try your code, might work, if not enter user name and password, see what happens.
If not do you have a friend nearby with a puta?

My sim-card is puk-locked how do i unlock it

Hi, three wrong entry of PIN code will result in SIM blocking. Once SIM gets blocked, phone starts asking PUK code to enter. If you again enter wrong code for three times, SIM gets completely blocked. You have to walk into your service provider outlet to get a replacement SIM card.

PUK code is a SIM specific code assigned by your service provider. No way you can guess & enter it. So, when it asks for the PUK code, don’t do anything, get the PUK code from your service provider.

Call to customer care using any other mobile phone which uses the same service provider. They will ask some details about you to make sure you are the owner of the SIM card. Questions might include your billing address, email ID, numbers you recently called or messaged etc. They might even ask you number printed on the SIM card, so be prepared with all details before calling them. Once you get the PUK code, enter it into the phone & your phone will return to normal.

Good luck!!!

Ive locked my g1, too many wrong attempts on pattern code. now asking me for google email and password, as i normally used "hotmail" i made up a google one, now cant access it, tried everything through...

1. Turn the G1 off. If it’s frozen on, take the battery out and put it back in the unit.
2. Hold the Home and Power keys down at same time for about 25 seconds. You will see a yellow triangle screen with exclamation point in the middle.
Now to wipe the device clean:
3. Press Alt+L.
4. Press Alt+W for a factory reset.
5. Press the Home and Back keys again for about 25 seconds.
The device should then reset again and the hard reset is complete.

How can i get into my g1 without internet

You need to connect via wifi somewhere in order to unlock the phone. There are plenty of hotspots to go to, look for a starbucks or a kinkos in your area.
