Hi, I have a couple of idea for you to try.
1) Log in to your google account on your pc, the same account you registered for your phone

2) After logging in look at the top right corner of your inbox/email page, it would say your google username. Like say if you name is John, and you have a google id thats registered to your galaxy s as , [email protected]. Now this google id on the top right corner of the page would be displayed as [email protected]

3) Type in the google id, thats visible on the right hand top corner of your page (like [email protected]) into your galaxy s handset locked page, and type in the password.

TADA AND YOUR ON TO THE NEW SCREEN TELLING YOU TO PUT IN ANOTHER PATTERN.

or theres this one:
Take out the battery, the sim card, and the SD card leave the phone for 2 to 3 hours like that.. Put everything back in and boot up the phone.. This should work.
You could try this instead of waiting 3 hours, just remove battery and press power on switch for 20 seconds but this may not work.

or if you've tried everything, the only other way would be to take it to a Samsung mobile phone shop.
or do a factory reset:
THIS WILL ERASE ALL YOUR DATA THOUGH
Go into recovery mode - vol up & home & power. Once in the menu, select factory reset.It may take you a couple of attempts to get to the recovery mode but it does work, just keep trying.

Regards
Mike

    I was really surprised. Being impatient, I was doing this for a friend and didn't want to wait the 2 to 3 hours and did the less preferred method of moving the battery and holding the power switch for 20 seconds.....and it worked! Amazing, to be able to unlock a new phone like this. You are a legend Mykel_N!

    The problem with the master reset is that you lose all yoru data, not very practical unless you have your phone contacts and contents backed up.

  • jin_yiii Dec 28, 2010

    for the factory reset... you said to go into "recovery mode". what is that?

  • aileen brizal Oct 27, 2012

    Hi Angel, Sorry for the delay in replying. I'm not 100% sure how to access your phone if you cannot remember your google login details. You could try google support for a help recovering usernames and passwords ->https://support.google.com/accounts/trou...

Thank you all for your valuable suggestions. Phone worked before with simple mobile. I might have flashed the wrong ROM and too many attempts, phone was re-locked to ATT sim only . When I check if att samsung gs2 is locked it shows that is unlocked; however it only accepts ATT and H20 sim. It shows it is registred on the network. Again any help is appreciated.

Forgot password samsung GT-E1205T phone. I ask for help, how to open it.

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.

Here comes more detail.

I locked my cell phone and forget my pattern and nothing seems to have helped

This may depending on your Android version; I'd suggest trying the following ...

OPTION 1
If you fail to unlock with pattern 5 times, you may be prompted for a backup PIN (hopefully you know that) or a "Forgot Pattern" button will appear. The forgot pattern button will ask for your google email & password; follow the prompts to gain access to your phone & create a new pattern.

OPTION 2
If you have a custom recovery installed or USB debugging enabled, there are instructions here: Android Guide Hacking And Bypassing Android Password Pattern Face PI

OPTION 3
Failing the above, you may have to do a factory reset. You'll lose any data/apps/accounts on your phone, but at least you can use it again. This method is detailed in method 2 here: How to Reset Your Android Phone
