Q:

Forgot my pattern on Poco X3 Pro… any way to unlock without losing data?

Changed my pattern yesterday and now I can’t remember it at all. Fingerprint not working without pattern. Bootloader locked, USB debugging was on but now PC isn’t authorized. I’ve got a lot of important photos/videos. Really don’t want to factory reset. Any ideas?

Got it. Sounds like I’m out of luck unless I reset. Appreciate the help everyone

Like really expensive… not worth unless it’s critical stuff.

If the data is really important, some professional services exist, but they’re expensive.

Honestly your best shot was USB debugging while authorized. Once that’s gone, it’s rough.

Yeah I’ve been careful with that now.

Also stop trying random patterns too much, you might trigger longer lockouts.

Just don’t install random apps on the phone after reset, that overwrites data fast

+1, not guaranteed but better than nothing.

If you do end up resetting, don’t use the phone after that. Try Android data recovery software on it, sometimes it pulls old media.

Checked both, only a few old photos there.

Before you give up, double check Mi Cloud + Google Photos from browser. Sometimes stuff is there without realizing.

Real talk, service centers aren’t lying. They’ll just reset it

Yeah saw that, don’t wanna risk making it worse.

There was a method with flashing eng firmware, but risky and can wipe data anyway.

ADB tricks won’t work now since your PC lost authorization. Without root it’s basically locked out.
