Typically, when using a Lumia password, you're allowed five consecutive incorrect attempts. On the sixth attempt, you'll have to wait for a minute before trying again. If you continue entering the wrong password, the wait time will double each time, making it time-consuming to unlock your Lumia screen. Now, you might consider ways to bypass the Lumia password, but how? Fear not, as this article provides a solution to unlock your Lumia when you forget your password.
GUIDE TO UNLOCKING LUMIA WHEN YOU FORGET YOUR PASSWORD
In a previous article, we explained how to take a screenshot on Windows Phone. However, those methods only cover specific scenarios. When it comes to forgetting your password, you have two options for unlocking it.
Method 1:
- First, power off your Lumia phone. The power button is located on the right side, below the volume keys. (If you can't power off, you can also try removing the battery and reinserting it.) Do not turn on the device.
- With the device powered off, press and hold the Power + Volume Down keys simultaneously (power button + volume down). After a few seconds, you'll feel a vibration, then release the keys.
- Next, continue holding the Volume Down button until the Lumia screen displays an exclamation mark, then release the button.
- Then, press the volume keys sequentially and then press the power button. Finally, press the volume down button once more. After completing these steps, the Lumia will erase the password, and you'll need to wait a few minutes for the device to restart.
Method 2:
This method is similar to the one above and is used when you've tried method 1 but it didn't work, in which case you can try method 2.
- Firstly, power off your locked Lumia phone.
- Next, simultaneously hold down the Volume down + Power + Camera buttons (volume down + power + camera buttons). You'll notice that these three buttons are all located on the right side of the phone.
- Keep holding down these three buttons until your Lumia vibrates, then release the Power button. However, continue holding the volume down and camera buttons for 5 seconds. Performing these actions means you can erase the password for your Lumia.
It's worth noting that using either of the methods above will restore your data to its default state as if it were brand new, and all data on the device will be lost.
