2.9 Protecting your phone with screen locks

You can protect your phone by creating a screen lock. When it is
enabled, you need to swipe the screen, draw a pattern or enter a
numeric PIN or a password to unlock the phone's screen and
keys.
1. Touch the Home key >
Screen lock.
2. Touch None, Swipe, Pattern, PIN or Password.
Touch None to disable the screen lock.

Touch Swipe to enable screen lock and allow

unlocking with a 'swipe' gesture. You can unlock the
screen by touching the display and swiping up.
Touch Pattern to draw and redraw a pattern that you

must draw to unlock the screen.
Touch PIN or Password to set a numeric PIN or a

password that you must enter to unlock the screen.
3. For Pattern, PIN, or Password lock, select how you want
notifications and their contents to show when the phone is
locked. Then touch DONE.
If you fail to draw the correct pattern on the screen after five
attempts, you will be prompted to wait for 30 seconds before you
can try again. If you still cannot recall the unlock pattern, you can
touch Forget pattern? and enter your Google account user name
and password. The phone will then connect to the Internet to
verify your account and prompt you to reset the screen lock.
NOTE:
You must sign in or create a Google account on your phone
before using the above method to reset the screen lock.
Otherwise, contact customer service of your phone dealer to
upgrade the phone software. Doing so will erase all your
personal data on the phone.
