To protect your tablet from unauthorized access, you must set a password on it. But in case the memory has let you down, and you cannot remember in any way what code was put on the device, you will undoubtedly be interested in information on how to unlock the tablet.
Despite the fact that the methods for setting standard and picture passwords on tablets are different, the unlocking methods for devices with the Android operating system are very similar. There are only minor differences in working with tablets of different brands.
How to unlock a Prestigio, Huawei, Texet tablet if you forgot your password
If you do not remember your pattern or standard key for accessing the tablet, then the easiest and most painless way to unlock is to restore access through a google account. To do this, enter the wrong password 5 times, and in the window that appears - data from google mail. Do not forget that you should enter only the name of the mail itself in the login field without @ gmail.com.
If this method does not work, then you can reset the password by returning the tablet to factory settings. On devices of the brands Texet, Prestigio and some others, the sequence of actions is not much different.
Turn off your tablet. Press and hold the power button and hold down the volume up key. Press the volume down button to unlock your Huawei tablet. After a few seconds, you will see the Android splash screen and the restore factory settings menu on the tablet screen.
Use the sound control buttons to go to the "Wipe data / factory reset> Reboot system now" section.
The tablet will restart and work again without entering passwords. However, the biggest disadvantage of this recovery method is the loss of all user settings and data.
How to unlock your Acer tablet
On a tablet of this brand, factory reset is a little different.
To unlock your Acer device, turn it off and slide the screen lock button to the left. Hold down the power and volume buttons. When you feel vibration, remove your finger from the power key.
While holding down the volume button, slide the screen lock key until you see the Erasing Cache menu on your Acer tablet screen. Release the volume control only after the tablet begins formatting.
How to unlock password on Explay tablet
There is no volume control button on Explay devices. Turn off your tablet to perform a factory reset. Press the button farthest to the right on the device (back key). While continuing to hold it, click the power button once.
When you see the Android screensaver on the screen, press the "home" button, and in the menu that appears, select the section for resetting user settings.
How to Unlock Samsung Tablet
Samsung tablets are easier to unlock than most other devices thanks to a dedicated app. To unlock the password, connect the device to the computer with the supplied usb cable.
Run the Kies utility, go to settings and change passwords.
If using this method is not possible or does not bring the desired results, use the factory reset method. To make a hard rezet on a Samsung android tablet, press the volume up key, home button and power. Release the pressed keys after the recovery menu appears. Use the volume control buttons and the "home" key to control.
If you cannot unlock the tablet using the factory reset method, contact the service center of your device manufacturer.
