  • Do you know your PIN code? Had you had a chance to enter it? How long does your phone show the "too many incorrect attempts" message? – Robert Feb 04 '24 at 13:15

Yes a factory reset is the only option if you don't know your PIN. Data on your phone is encrypted using this PIN. If it was easy to bypass it, there would be no point in this security measure.

As far as I know, you can factory reset your locked phone, only if you have linked a Google account to it. Either via Find my Mobile or by pressing the volume up/down and power buttons.
