So you are saying you cannot do anything with the phone?
No input is possible at all (or just no swiping)?
Holding the power button has no effect, no matter the length of time you hold it?

If the phone is unusable then you can try and let it completely drain until it powers off on its own.
Let it rest for 10 minutes at that point and then put it on a charger.
It would not hurt to put it in a desiccant while it is charging (instant rice or a commercial product) to make sure it is completely dried out.

Once charged, try and power on, hopefully it does and you are back in business. If not, I think a Repair Depot is your next best option.

Galaxy 6. How can I bypass password?

Samsung Galaxy S6: How to bypass Password:

Hello. You'll need to enter in your password first in order to get into the phone, and then set the phone to no security so that you can get into your device without having to enter it all the time, if it has become annoying. I would suggest at least using a simple swipe pattern to lock your phone

1. Enter screen unlock password
2. Go to:
Settings>Device>Lock screen>
(under screen security)
tap on "Screen Lock"
(enter your screen unlock password to confirm)
select: None, or Swipe, or pattern

==

if you are unable to select: None or Swipe
because they are greyed out
like this:


bypass-password-galaxy-6-kyzl0pi20tqzz121bvlihxv0-2-0.jpg then you will have to just clear the credentials in security..
(this happens when you select a high security option)

go to:
Settings>Security>Clear Credentials
then go back to
selecting your new lock screen option

then, Go to:
Settings>Device>Lock screen>
(under screen security)
tap on "Screen Lock"
(enter your last screen unlock password to confirm)
select: None, or Swipe, or pattern

Talk back mode is on and I cant get into my phone. Have taken battery out several times and still cant get into my phone. It just keeps making sounds when I try to put in my password.

Samsung Galaxy S3: Talkback Mode On: Can't enter password:

If you have a password on your device then you will need to double tap on the screen to gain access to the lock pattern or code that you have on your device. While in Talkback mode you will need to double tap any selection in order to fully make that selection.

You need to double tap on the screen pause for a second then swipe your screen In order to gain access to your device. You cannot double tap quickly then go to the process of swiping to open our device

Unlock Phone in Password Mode:

If you have chosen the Password Unlock mode on your phone and are unable to enter the password due to the Talkback mode, do as follows. First of all long press the password field and then double tap it. Now you will see the keyboard. Long press the alphabets/numbers of your set password and when you have typed it, long press/double tap the "Done" button on the keyboard. You can now follow the two finger swipe and double tap as described above to deactivate the Talkback mode.

My galaxy is stuck on the swipe page it wont swipe what do i do

If you have forgotten your swipe password you will have to do a hard reset. DOING THIS WILL CAUSE YOU COMPLETE DATA LOSS AND YOU WILL HAVE TO START OVER UNLESS YOU HAVE PREVIOUSLY SYNCHED YOUR PHONE TO GOOGLE OR HAVE BACK UP YOUR PHONE WITH SOME OTHER BACK UP APPLICATION. To reset PHONE TURN IN OFF, AND WHEN TURNING IN BACK ON HOLD THE POWER BUTTON AND THE VOLUME BUTTON DOWN UNTIL YOU SEE THE GREEN ANDROID MAN THAT LOOKS LIKE HE HAS A TOOL CHAIN BELT ROTATING AROUND HIS ABDOMEN
