Help Samsung S5 - Forgot Alternative password - no data

weewill

Lurker
Hello
Hoping someone can help.
I've managed to lock my Samsung S5, after trying and failing to unlock with fingerprint recognition for some reason it is now asking for " alternative password " , I cant remember setting one up . so I don't know it.

I have tried to unlock via Google device manager .
However my phone doesn't have mobile data turned on and the screen is locked so I cant turn data on , is there any way to unlock it or turn on mobile data with the screen locked ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated !
Many Thanks
