Someone draw a pattern to lock the phone and then he added a security question. Someone else got his hands on the phone, striked him out and now he does not remember the answer he's supposed to write in. Is there any chance that we can get passed that question and use the PUK-code or reset the phone?
A message appeared on my husband's phone to make a security update or lose the security on the phone. I started the download which took forever. We were visiting relatives at the time and did not keep a check on it. When we got home we found it had used up most of our data which created a data usage warning. We want to delete the download without installing, but there is no place to do this.

I recently got an LG Xenon GR500 through ROGERS however I cannot install my own apps or games, ringtones etc as Rogers has locked all these features in the hopes that people will then buy from them. I was wondering if unlocking the phone will remove Rogers' Security policy from my phone so I can then do all this stuff. Is there anybody that has tried something like this before, perhaps even on a different phone?
how can i open my phone without answering the security question in the security patern? my little child set it without remembering the answer of the security question

I have a new brand Xperia Z5 Compact from two days ago.I have configured my mobil with everything I had in my old Xperia P and then I tried to configure some fingerprints to use it as my security method. I realized that it is not working as the wizard process crashes closing before I can introduce my fingerprint. I thought that reinstalling Android through the Sony Companion would solve the issue but it is still happening.
My wife, that has the same phone from the same day, could configure a fingerprint without a problem. Can be a hardware problem that does not allow me to configure the fingerprint?
I cant change my WiFi security code. It is supposed to be as WAP/WPA2 PSK. But in my phone it is showing as WPA PSK. Is it a problem with my phone or with the WiFi connection? Please help me out. I'm using sony ericsson Xperia Neo V, version 4.0.4.was using the same network for a long time. I just clicked the FORGET option once accidently and from that time I'm having this problem.
My 5 year old niece was playing with my phone and she tried too many patterns, over 20, and it locked me out. Usually when this happens, i just wait 20 seconds and it lets me use the pattern again. But this time its keeping on the same page. I dont know the answer to the question. The question is 'Whats your favourite place?'
I got issue from past week, suddenly phones lost my security lock reverted back to swipe. I tried putting face unlock and PIN but after few minutes the phone goes back to swipe to unlock. I don't recall installing any new apps in past few weeks nor installing any phone updates except for app updates for already installed apps
I set the trace a pattern security system for the phone. Later when trying to do two things at once I got the pattern wrong five times. I then compounded the problem by getting the succeeding attempts wrong as well until the phone locked me out. Like many others it seems I set-up my gmail account without recording the pertinant details, gmail address and password, these are the requirements to unlock the phone. The official X10 user guide is no help on the subject. I have also been to various websites looking for advice and have found no information at all, apart from don't do it of course! I went to a phone shop and their advice was to use PC Companion to reset the phone but of course I need to mount the phone in order that the software sees it. I am resigned to resetting the phone as the solution as I am backed up but even if I reset I will still need the gmail info to enable all of the Google features. I know it is the result of being a dufus but it seems like a bit of a terminal cul-de-sac at the moment.
i was wondeing if anyone could me with the haptic ( tactil) feedback for the security lock and keyboard, ive went into settings and turned both on, and still.
I can't believe a non-essential application such as facebook could have so much access to my device without my authorization. I need to figure out how to remove all the facebook related apps and plugins on my device, or disable them permanently. I have the st18a (north american) version of the ray (unlocked).

I just upgraded to the new software, and all of a sudden I keep getting this chinese keyboard. I want my old English keyboard back, where if I press on the keyboard I get keyboard settings, not it changing into Mandarin instead. Also, my word prediction seems to have gone off, together with the new keyboard. Sigh.
I'm using my Se X8 for about 3 months now. They give me the phone with just 8Gb SD Card. I has install some games either from the market or through the web but somehow my phone suddenly cannot detect my SD Card. On the status bar it stated 'Remove SD Card. Insert a new one". Why this is happening? I've tried to check the card through computer and all the data still there. I've format the SD Card with fat 32 and recheck again. I've install back all the application in the card which I has back it up earlier. Through my computer the card is fine. When I insert it to the phone, is says the same.
I am quite happy with my Xperia Play, but it received an update last week and now I notice that Facebook-related applications have now taken up between 40 and 50mb of memory. I do not use facebook at all and wish to remove all traces of it from my phone, but I am not able to uninstall it from the various Android application menus or even by using Elixir.
I use google play to download an application but my wifi connection got lost before the download started, so a "ongoing notification appeared, but I cannot remove the ongoing notification on my xperia ray, I cannot also see it on the manage application list.
