2. Find Settings and press that button to open settings menu.
4. Scroll down the menu to Lock Screen and Security, press that to open options menu.
5. The first option at top is Screen Lock Type.Press and Open.
6. You will have 3 lock types to choose from. Swipe Lock, Passcode Lock, Password Lock
(advise, do not forget password, only a hard phone reset, or an apk lockout file will get you back in)

If activating screen lock through settings did not work, or if option is not available, you can try to reset phone to the way it was when you bought it.

There is a couple things you should know.
1. contacts, photos, videos, downloaded apps, games, and everything not on the phone when it was first bought, or when you first got the phone will be erased.
2. You can back up contacts, photos, videos, in settings menu, scroll down to Backup and Reset. Or save to an sd card, and remove sd card before applying reset option
3. If you have an account (google or android email) associated with your phone, you will need email address, ([email protected]) and password to get back in phone after phone resets and turns on.) Dont remember password, Please create a new password now before continuing to reset to manufacture settings.

Reset Phone to Manufacture Settings
1. Remove SD Card, or its saved files will be erased.
2. Open apps, Open Settings Menu, Scroll Down to Backup and Reset.
3. Scroll down to bottom of page to Factory Data Reset.
4. Follow instructions to reset phone.

When your phone comes back on, Swipe Screen Unlock should be active at phone turn on, if screen lock is not showing try again to turn on in security settings.
If still does not work,
I am sorry, Your phone has permanantly malfunctioned. You can try your phone store, or a phone repair shop.

Read it on a forum:
You need to recover it first the Lost Password Via Recovery email of your android device. On the locked Screen Tap the Forgot PIN or Forgot pattern. Then enter the email address that was registered on your Device then Enter also the correct password. After that, use a PC to log on to the Gmail account and check for the Email Recovery from your android device.

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.

Hi Sohil,

Sadly, if you're unable to get past the lock pattern, you'll have to perform a factory reset. Please follow the steps below to factory reset your device. Keep in mind this will delete all content from the phone.

Power off the device

Press and hold the R and M keys while pressing the Power button. You will see the red M logo on your screen then the screen with the Android-bot and a blue exclamation mark inside a white triangle

Once this screen appears, press both Volume Up and Down keys, then release to get the Android system recovery

Use the Volume Up and Volume down buttons to select wipe data/factory reset

Choose Yes -- delete all user data to confirm that you would like to wipe all data from the device and press the Return key

Your device should now cycle through the wiping/reset process and return to the Android system recovery screen

After userdata is cleared, the "reboot system now" option will be highlighted by default. Press the return key to power off/on your device

It will take a few moments to arrive at the initial Android Welcome screen.

Your phone will reboot and be back to factory settings. You can now set everything back up on your phone again.

Thank you,
Tom
