Help unlocking phone

metroman

Lurker
Somebody tried to unlock my pattern on my x10 and because they have tried 5 times the phone is locked I have reset my password and got conformation of my user name from google but still no luck.

Can I do a hard rest while its in this locked state.

I think when my phone was set up I may have set a secondary gmail address but im not sure.

Please help im going out of my mind with this one.
 
First of all try typing in 'null' as your password, this cheat works in some cases.

Next run a repair/reset via Sony Ericsson Update Service

Sony Ericsson - Support - Phones - Topic - Updateserviceapplication - Xperia? X10

You don't need to access the phone for this where as you do on PC Companion. This will wipe your phone back to factory settings so you will lose all data on the phone memory. Hope you have your contacts saved or synced!

My two cents worth is that the pattern lock is a pain in the rear, I stay clear of it.
 
I used cellunlocker, they couldn't get me a code, but they sent me a software instead...i was skeptical because my antivirus wouldn't allow me to download the program. But after turning my firewall off, what do you know, i unlocked my x10, its a little pricy but it was the only way i found i could unlock it.
