Setting an Unlock Pattern

Creating a screen unlock pattern increases security on the phone.
When you enable the User visible pattern field, you will draw an
unlock pattern on the screen whenever you want to unlock the
phone’s buttons or touch screen. When you activate the User tactile
feedback field, you feel vibration as feedback while drawing the
pattern.

The feature is now paired with a backup PIN code that acts as a
backup to the pattern lock. If you forget your pattern, you can regain
access to the device by entering a PIN code.

Note: Make sure the Require Pattern field is activated.

1. From the Home screen, press

Lock screen.

2. Tap Screen lock Pattern.

3. Read the instructions then tap Next.

4. Review the on-screen animation procedure for drawing a

pattern and tap Next when you are ready to draw a pattern.

5. Draw your pattern by touching your first on-screen point. Then,

without removing your finger from the screen, drag your finger

over adjacent points until the gray trace line overlaps each point

and they are highlighted with a green circle.

horizontal or diagonal direction, lift your finger from the screen
