Chosen Solution
I’ve had this tablet since 2016, I actually thought it was lost until stumbling upon it. Due to the fact that I have not seen it in almost 2 years I cannot remember the password to get into the tablet. The email address associated with the tablet I hardly remember setting up so I’m also unable to get into that. I thought I remembered setting up a backup password. So if I attempted too many incorrect passwords it would then send me to a backup solution. This is not the case. Why is it if we cannot remember the password that we automatically have to factory reset I don’t want to lose the data on the tablet I just want to find another way into it.
You can unlock it with the email account used to activate the device. If you can’t get to that for some reason (forgot that also) you need to contact your service provider for help.
