Guest 1390_taz Posted January 16, 2012 Report Posted January 16, 2012 i have a stock zte blade phone on which i have forgotten the draw pattern and forgotten my google acount can anyone help to get my phone back to normal
Guest Davidoff59 Posted January 16, 2012 Report Posted January 16, 2012 Best bet would be to take it to the shop where you bought it with a receipt so you can prove its your phone. Forgetting the pattern is one thing but forgetting your account also? You can reset your gmail password if that helps.
Guest matt4321 Posted January 19, 2012 Report Posted January 19, 2012 If all else fails try using ADB to root the phone (you said stock ZTE Blade so wasn't sure if you were rooted) if you are skip that part, then flash ClockworkMod Recovery and install a ROM of your choice
Guest Davidoff59 Posted January 19, 2012 Report Posted January 19, 2012 Matt, did you confirm that the phone is his/hers? Forgetting a unlock pattern is acceptable, but it must raise questions when the google account is forgotten also. There are steps available to recover a password or username on a forgotten google mail account, and the fact that this was not done, nor that there has been any follow up response should arise further questions. I think my response above was more than adequate.
Guest matt4321 Posted January 19, 2012 Report Posted January 19, 2012 just thought it may help, sorry
Guest Lister Of Smeg Posted January 20, 2012 Report Posted January 20, 2012 Hi All, As much as we are a nice, friendly, welcoming kinda forum..... I'm with DavidOff59... :) Dont get me wrong, harsh times if it is genuine... but yeah ya gotta admit, forgotten ya own pattern is unfortunate. Forgetting your own Google Acc (which ya assigned to ya own phone, and links with all ya personal eMails) at the same time is another?? And to top it, its the first, and only post on these forums (seeking that kinda info) ya gotta ask yaself?? Mmm... As DavidOff59 said, if its all above board, then you shouldnt be offended by the comments raised here, and by going to the place of purchase with proof, will be able to advise fully, and clearly what is needed... Oh, and welcome to the forums by the way... :) Cheers, Lister
Guest Davidoff59 Posted January 20, 2012 Report Posted January 20, 2012 my intention was not to offend but to educate. My hope is that you see the ??? and why I raised them, with no accusations but the original poster knew what I was getting at, and the reasons for doing so.
Guest matt4321 Posted January 20, 2012 Report Posted January 20, 2012 I do see what you're getting at, i'll be more wary in future before giving advice!
Guest Davidoff59 Posted January 20, 2012 Report Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) Yes, its good to read into posts sometimes. Btw welcome to modaco Edited January 20, 2012 by Davidoff59

I think my response above was more than adequate. For all we know, it could be a stolen phone. I mean if i stole an android phone, i wouldn't know their unlock pattern or gmail account either. But again, just take it to where you bought it, show them the receipt and they'll probably give you an exchange Edited January 21, 2012 by hahawas
