Yet another reason to hate this phone.

So i plugged the phone in to charge last night. shortly after it randomly restarted itself as it seems to do often. i checked a text msg, then went to bed.

this morning on the ride to work i go to put my password in and it says its invalid. which is false. i know that its right. is there anyway i can get into my phone without a hard reset, since i have done about 5 already to this the past few months. I am getting tired of having issues just using it for things its meant to be used for.

thanks in advance

I've run into this issue a few times, and all I could not do anything else but hard reset. Fortunately, I had most of my data on the storage card, and other stuff synced via MyPhone and Outlook syncing.

Sounds like hardware to me. I have the same phone on Sprint and have never been locked out or reset involuntarily....

Are you running the stock ROM? If not, would go back to a stock ROM and try it again. If it resets on the stock ROM, I'd say you need a replacement.

PS I do not even have it resetting after overclocking...

Try seeing if you can make the jump back to 6.1
I seem to have heard about people having more issues on 6.5 than 6.1
Just an observation.

plug it in to cpu, usb sync should unlock it
