Hi,

Does anyone know of a method of getting access to a locked Samsung Galaxy S3?

After contacting the manufacturer of the SIM, I was told that it was a hand set issue and there was nothing that they could do to help but to contact Samsung.

Awaiting on a reply from them but I was just wondering if anyone else has had issues with one.

Thanks, Neil.  

if you have access to a cellebrite ultimate you should may be able to bypass it

I've used one to take a physical dump of a sgs3, but I also had the passcode. I'm not sure if theyve updated it to get you the lock pattern though.  

yes, we did, for a defined Galaxy S3 list of models.
Since there are several different chipsets that each require a different solution.

Thanks for the response chaps.

Ron, does this mean the bypass is on the ultimate now as well and not just the touch
when usb debugging is not on?  

No, the method we use for some of the Samsung phones that allows us to bypass pattern lock cannot be implemented on the UFED Classic. The S3 family is one of those that are only implemented on the Touch.

The HTC and Motorola pattern lock bypass method is available on both platforms, UFED Classic and UFED Touch.

Best regards,

Thanks RonS for the useful information regarding Samsung SIII/ s3.
