5. Using an unlock pattern
Set an unlock pattern to secure your phone. Touch
Settings > Lock screen from DEVICE > Select screen lock > Pattern. This
opens a screen that will guide you through how to draw a screen unlock
pattern. You have to create a Backup PIN as a safety measure in case you
forget your unlock pattern.
NOTE: Create a Google account before setting an unlock pattern and remember the
Backup PIN you created when creating your pattern lock.
WARNING
Precautions to take when using pattern lock.
It is very important to remember the unlock pattern you set. You will not be
able to access your phone if you use an incorrect pattern 5 times. You have 5
opportunities to enter your unlock pattern, PIN or password. If you have used all
5 opportunities, you can try again after 30 seconds.
When you can't recall your unlock pattern:
If you logged in to your Google account on the phone but failed to
enter the correct pattern 5 times, tab the Forgot Pattern option on the
the screen. You will be required to log in with your Google account or
you have to enter the backup PIN which you entered while creating the
pattern lock.
