Hi,
Sadly we lost a good friend recently, but I am trying to help another friend sort out the admin.
One problem is that she did everything on an Android tablet, and although she had a book with various logins and passwords recorded, the one thing we dont have is the screen lock password, there are lots of videos and information about bypassing it to do a factory reset, but I am not sure how much was getting backed up to the cloud, so idealy want to keep it intact if we can.
Whats annoying is that I have typed it in myself on several occasions, I think it is based on her middle name, but possibly with other characters or numbers.
We have access to her google account.
Somebody told me there is a way, by connecting it to a pc via a USB cable, but he couldn't remember the details.
I wonder if anyone here has any suggestions.
Dave
