Stuck at forgot password screen

---

My sister was messing around with my phone and she kept putting in the wrong password now it had too many attempts and requires the email the phone was synced with but none of us remember that. Us there anyway we can get around this without losing the data? I tried putting in null for both the email and password but nothing has worked. Any ideas?

There is a security loophole you can try... as it is booting up RIGHT BEFORE us cellular animation is done start pressing the home button as fast as you can... at least 3-4 times per second.... keep pressing it that fast for as long as you can... while you are doing that also press the emergency call button very fast.. this will get you through. The success rating is about 15% lol... This worked for me...
