Forgotten Password

Hi, i have forgotten my password for my Samsung Tocco S5230 Lite which means i cannot view text messages, contacts and call logs. Is there anything i can do to change the password without wiping the phone? If not wiping the phone is a perfectly viable option. If it helps i also know my pincode.

Re: Forgotten Password

Hi,

 

More information on the handset codes available at the below link under 'security'

 

Samsung Tocco Help

 

If it's the PIN code for the SIM then if you guess it incorrectly a certain amount of times it'll lock out and ask you for a PUK code (Phone Unlock Key) which you can get from here.

 

If you've set a code for the device itself then neither Vodafone or the manufacturer would have a way of finding what this is (help article here) so a reset is likely to be the best option

Hi, it is the passcode that i have set myself, not the one on the SIM card, how could i reset my phone without a passcode? Thankyou very much.
