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

1. 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)
2. Kill userdata and cache with fastboot -w
3. The device restarts automaticaly into recovery mode
4. Connect to your device with telnet <ipadress> using the ip displayed on the screen
5. Press 1 to reset the device
6. Wait some time :)
