Hi, my wife has a samsung galaxy A3, she put a password to lock her screen. We have tried several times to unlock the screen without success, is there a way she can unlock the phone or reset the phone without losing the content?

Thankyou

Put the wrong code in 10 or so times and at some point you will see a message on the screen asking if you want to unlock with Google account.
Tap the message and enter the Google ID and password to unlock it.
