To remove the pattern lock on your Samsung phone using your Google account, follow the steps below:
1. On the lock screen, after entering the wrong pattern 5 times, you will see a message at the bottom that says “Forgot Pattern.” Tap on this option.
2. Now, you will be prompted to enter your Google account credentials. Enter the email address associated with your Samsung phone and the password. Make sure you enter the correct information to proceed.
3. After entering the credentials, tap on the “Sign in” button. This will initiate the verification process with your Google account.
4. If the entered information is correct, you will be redirected to the “Screen Unlock” settings page on your Samsung phone.
5. Here, you can choose to set a new pattern lock or disable it altogether. You can also choose other unlocking methods like PIN or password if you prefer.
6. Once you have made your desired changes, tap on the “Finish” or “Done” button to save the settings.
7. Now, you should be able to unlock your Samsung phone using the newly set lock screen method or without any pattern lock at all.
It is important to note that this method requires you to have a working internet connection on your Samsung phone. Additionally, you need to remember your Google account credentials to successfully unlock your device using this method.
If you encounter any issues or have trouble accessing your Google account, you can try performing a factory reset on your Samsung phone. However, this will erase all data on your device, so it should only be used as a last resort.
