1. Connect your Android phone.
Once connected, simply launch the dr.fone. Once it has loaded, click on Unlock. Allow the program to run, and then connect your Android phone to the computer with a USB cable, and click on ‘Start.’
Then select the correct phone model for your Android phone. This is very important since the recovery package for different model is different.
2. Enter into Download Mode
In order to enter into the Download Mode, you simply need to follow the instructions. Once completed, turn your phone off and then press and hold down the Volume, Hold and Power buttons all at the same time. At this point, press the ‘Volume Up’ toggle button to enter into Download Mode.
3. Download the recovery package
Now that your phone is in recovery mode, it will automatically start to download the recovery package. All you have to do is wait a few moments and you are well on your way to removing the android lock screen.
4. Remove Android lock screen without losing data
Once the recovery package has downloaded, dr.fone will remove the locked screen. This innovative process won’t harm any of the data or info on your phone, and once the process is complete you can now use your phone as usual without entering a password!
Even if you have a Google account, if your phone isn’t connected to the internet you cannot access it to unlock your phone. If this sounds familiar, you can always try this method.
1. First, navigate to the Android Device Manager page. You will need to sign in with the Google account that you use to set up your phone.

2. Once you have logged in, you will automatically be redirected to the Android Device Manager page. If this is your first time, just click the “Accept” button.
3. A list of all of the devices that registered to this Android account will pop up. Select the device in question from this list.
4. The Android Device Manager will then locate your device. Make sure it is turned on!
5. After it has been located, you will have a few options of what to do next. If you do not know the location of your phone, you can call it from this screen, but if you know where it is, simply click the ‘Enable Lock & Erase’ option.
6. A notification will pop up on your device; confirm it.
7. At this point you will be asked to create a new lock screen password. Once you have chosen one, press “Lock.”
8. Now simply enter the new passcode on your device and voila! It will open and you can get back to your daily routine.
