I use the finger unlock method on my pixel and forgot my pattern hoping there is a way to unlock the phone without resetting it and losing my data.

JOSHIL46 Being locked out of your phone is no fun. I'm here to help. I did take a look at this and since your finger print and pattern are not working. The only way to get back into the device you would be to erase and reset the device. You can find more information on this here http://spr.ly/65898naiV

I suspect there is a way, but I haven't researched it too extensively.

Next time, try to use a backup pin/password you can easily remember, but hard for others to guess.

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.
