Forgetting your lock screen password can be frustrating, but OPPO provides multiple solutions to help you regain access to your device. This step-by-step guide is tailored for users of ColorOS 5 to ColorOS 6, ensuring you can unlock your phone and restore functionality quickly and easily. Follow the instructions below to reset your lock screen password and regain control of your OPPO device. Fingerprint or Face Unlock If your phone supports unlocking via fingerprint or face recognition, prioritize using these methods to access the desktop. Before proceeding, consider backing up essential data like WeChat information. Forget Password Option Input an incorrect password on the lock screen five times. Check if the option "Forget Password" appears. If prompted with "You need to contact the service Center for help," visit the service center with your warranty card for assistance (data will be completely cleared). Email Address Verification If it displays "Email address xxx," you can change the password by entering the complete email address associated with your account. Fingerprint Verification If prompted with "Please put the correct finger on the fingerprint button," you can change the password using the registered fingerprint.

Service Center Assistance If the password recovery attempts prove unsuccessful, bring your warranty card to the nearest service center. Service center professionals can provide dedicated assistance for unlocking your device. Note: To prevent lock screen password issues due to prolonged inactivity, remember that after the phone is turned off, restarted, or inactive for more than 72 hours, it defaults to unlocking only with the lock screen password. OPPO acknowledges the importance of secure access to your device and provides multiple avenues for password recovery. Follow these steps based on the prompts you receive on the lock screen, and if needed, seek assistance from OPPO's service center to ensure a smooth resolution.
