Set an unlock pattern to secure your phone. Touch > Apps tab > Settings >
Display > Lock screen from HOME&LOCK > Select screen lock > Pattern . This
opens a screen that will guide you through how to draw a screen unlock pattern.
You have to create a Backup PIN as a safety measure in case you forget your unlock
pattern.

remember the Backup PIN you created when creating your pattern lock.
WARNING

It is very important to remember the unlock pattern you set. You will not be
able to access your phone if you use an incorrect pattern 5 times. You have 5
opportunities to enter your unlock pattern, PIN or password. If you have used
all 5 opportunities, you can try again after 30 seconds.
When you can’t recall your unlock Pattern, PIN or Password:

If you logged in to your Google account on the phone but failed to enter the correct
pattern 5 times, touch the Forgot pattern? button at the bottom of the screen. You are
then required to log in with your Google Account or you have to enter the Backup PIN
which you entered when creating your Pattern Lock.
If you have not created a Google account on the phone or you forgot Backup PIN, you
have to perform a hard reset.
< If you have forgotten your PIN or Password >
If you forget your PIN or Password, you will need to perform a hard reset.
