Locked out of my phone

Mary · ‎31-07-2018

I received my upgrade yesterday and tried to set it up,a galaxy J3 2017,and I have somehow locked it. I have tried password but no luck. Is there someone who can help me fix this issue please?

@Mary Enter the wrong password 10 times and it will ask you to reset your device with your Gmail address and password.

Hi @Mary
What do you mean exactly by locked?
Can you not get past the lock screen when you turn on the phone or is it something else?
When you set up the phone it would have asked you to enter a 4 digit PIN. Have you tried that PIN to see if it unlocks?
