Hi everyone.I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace.Recently i changed my unlock pattern but i forgot it.Now im at the "too many pattern attempts" screen(i need to sign in to google account).I know my ID and password but it still says invalid username or password when i type it.I wanted to do a factory reset and i have a problem there too.When i boot into recovery mode it automatically opens cwm recovery.When i go to wipe data there,it says data successfully wiped but i still need to sign in with google account.I dont have internet conenction on phone since i cant enable Wi-Fi because the phone is locked.Can somebody help me?

Yes :)
it will get your warranty back ..
and it will not have root while you can root manually after flashing

so happy flashing :)
Thanks.Ok i tried but Odin doesnt detect my phone.I cant enable mass storage transfer(the thing you need to do to be able to access phone from PC) but i dont think this is the problem.Any help on this?I really dont know what to try else lol.I have installed KIES and i checked its not running.Also i think USB debugging is turned on but i cant really check because i cant unlock my phone :crying:


P.S. seems like the problem is my phone since even KIES cant find my phone,anything i could do?
