i have managed to lock myself out of the phone
 

somehow after 2 years with this device i have managed to lock myself out of the phone. the weird thing is that i don't remember setting a lock code, and it's not the default 12345.

what are my options ?
can i somehow manage to keep my data intact ? or do i have to do a complete wipe of the phone

thanks
:mad:

maybe you had installed openssh?
use filezilla to access your data from a pc if you have

If you got ssh then this post will solve your problem.

i think even a wipe wouldnt help

Re: i have managed to lock myself out of the phone
 

i do have ssh installed but i have rebooted the device, does it connect to the network even though it's locked ?

Re: i have managed to lock myself out of the phone
 

is there any way to ssh the phone without it connecting to wireless ? because i don't thin it's connected now since i can't find it on m network.

please someone ?
is it possible to ssh the device when lockscreen is activated ?
i am locked out and network ability is not on probably

have you got bootmenu maybe?
there is an option for usb ssh on bootmenu

Other solution is to put meego on an sd. Boot into meego by loading the kernel with flasher, and then ssh to meego, (or do whatever inside meego)

You can decode the lock code but people aren't inclined to help new users with this sort of issue as you may have found/stolen the phone.
Can you provide any proof of purchase or any proof that the phone is yours?

don't have bootmenu installed.
about the second option, sounds complicated i think i rather wipe the phone and try to break the code with ripper.
why did i reboot it ??

i think it's a good time to switch to android
