Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 won't accept Pin - Pato - 06-08-2023
I decided to put a pin on my tablet and it worked fine. All of a sudden it won't accept my pin and I can't open the tablet. I have googled it and it appears that this
has happened to many others. I wonder if anyone else has had this problem and can offer some suggestions.? I have rebooted it in safe mode.
When I enter the pin it just advises to try again in 30 seconds and the same thing happens.

It looks like no one can help. I may have to do a factory reset. is there anything I should know before I do so.?

A factory reset will only help here if you know the google account it is tied to and can sign into it after the factory reset - this is due to Factory Reset Protection (FRP)
