Hi Ed Ling,

Unfortunately, if you forget your pattern lock and you can access through your gmail account the only option is to do a factory reset.

Best Regards,

I am locked out of my cell

The user account is linked to a google account. If you can remember the username and password of that account, you will be able to reset your lock pattern. Otherwise, you will have to perform a factory reset. You will lose all your data. This is a protective measure by Android to prevent data theft.

Hi i forgot my unlock pattern what can i do

Try your pattern 15 times and a dialog box will appear that will link you to sign into your Gmail account where you can create a new pattern password.
If you don't remember the password for your Gmail account, you will need to complete a factory data reset. Factory reset will permanently delete all your data and customized settings, and will remove any applications you've downloaded and installed. SD and SIM card data will not be deleted.
With the phone turned off, press and hold the Volume Down button, and Power button for 10 seconds.

Wait for the screen with the 3 Android images to appear, and then release the buttons.

Press Volume Down to select FACTORY RESET, and then press the Power button.
