Master Rest with Password?

**Geefiasco** · 09-30-2010, 10:01 AM

My little brother got a hold of my phone and somehow set up a password

I cannot believe it! I can't get into my phone unless I type in a password.

Any way I can reset the whole phone? I have everything backed-up until 3 days ago.

Would really appreciate it. Thanks.

If you enter the incorrect password 10 times, the phone wipes itself. You should then be able to restore.

Any reason little bro wont give you the password?

Thanks, is this safe to do? It wont block my phone or anything mate?

PS. My brother is 5. God knows how he managed to set up a password

I have never done it myself, but if you do a search here on CB for password security wipe, you will find more than a few people who have had to do this.
