Locking and unlocking the screen

Using a Screen Lock

Set a screen lock to secure your phone and prevent unauthorized use.
From the Home screen, tap the Menu key
> Select screen lock, then select your lock type (Swipe, Pattern, PIN, or
Password).
NOTE If you choose Pattern, you'll be prompted to create a Backup PIN as a safety measure in
case you forget your unlock pattern.
CAUTION Sign in to (or create) a Google Account before setting a screen lock (and remember
the Backup PIN you created when creating your screen lock) to reduce the risk of
needing to perform a Hard Reset which erases all of your data.
WARNING It's very important to remember the screen lock you set. After five incorrect
attempts you'll be prompted to enter a phrase to verify that you're trying to unlock
your phone. The phone will automatically reset itself and erase all of the phone's
data after ten incorrect attempts.
When you can't recall your screen lock:
If you activated a Google Account on the phone, after 5 unsuccessful
attempts you'll be prompted to enter a phrase to verify that you're
attempting to unlock the phone. Then:
If you forgot your unlock pattern, you can tap Forgot pattern? (at the
bottom of the screen). You can sign in to your Google Account or enter
your Backup PIN to regain access to your phone.
If a Google Account wasn't activated on the phone before setting the lock
(or you also forgot your Backup PIN), the only way to regain access to the
phone is to perform a Hard Reset which erases all of your user data.
CAUTION If you perform a Hard Reset, all user apps and user data will be deleted.
