[howto] recover devicelock WITHOUT pin
If you managed to forget your pin start your Jolla C it is still possible to reset your device to factory settings (without sending it in to Jolla/intex)
This can be done with the fastboot
tool from the android sdk tools
- Start your device in fastboot mode (I'm not 100% sure how to do this I think the steps I took were:
- take out battery
- insert battery while pressing volume down (or up?)
- switch on device while holding volume down (or up?)
- hope only the jolla/intex logo appears
- connect USB
- hope that
fastboot devices
list your device)
- Kill
userdata
andcache
withfastboot -w
- The device restarts automaticaly into recovery mode
- Connect to your device with
telnet <ipadress>
using the ip displayed on the screen - Press
1
to reset the device - Wait some time :)
