The Samsung Galaxy S2 is a smartphone that is at the forefront of the world market; their successes corroborate it. However, due to its great ability to be able to do everything with it, users tend to save a lot of personal information such as photographs, a calendar full of contact addresses, work documents, etc... And all this information can be seen by outsiders. For this reason, the most logical option is to proceed to activate the screen lock, and have a security system enabled. Next we are going to show you the different ways that exist to be able to keep those onlookers out.
First of all, the screen lock options that Samsung Galaxy S2 offers its users are as follows: using a four-number PIN code; by a pattern drawn on the screen; or by a password with letters.
Screen lock by PIN code
With the first option "" by PIN code "", the user must configure it as follows: he must go to the main application menu of the Samsung Galaxy S2. Once inside you must select the Settings icon.
Once inside, you must check the Location and security option and then the Set screen lock option and the option that refers to the PIN code. Once inside, the smartphone will ask for a numeric four - digit code; You must press the virtual button to continue and you will be asked again to enter the code you have chosen. And everything is correct, you only have to confirm and the PIN number will be saved automatically. To check if everything has worked, once the screen is locked and restarted again, the smartphone should ask for the number to be able to use the terminal.
Screen lock by pattern
If the PIN code is not the option the customer was looking for, they can choose the one that forces the user to draw a pattern on the screen by joining different points. As in the previous occasion, you must go to the main menu of the advanced mobile and select the option "Settings" and click again on the option "Location and security".
In the "Set a screen lock" box, choose the "Pattern" option. Once inside, the client must draw their pattern by joining the dots that appear on the screen with a minimum of four dots. After continuing, the operating system asks again to confirm the drawn pattern and only the chosen sequence must be repeated.
Password screen lock
However, if a password composed of a word "" of at least four letters "" is better remembered, the steps to follow will be the same as in the previous two cases: enter the main menu and select the option "Location and security". After this step, you must go back to "Set screen lock" and select the option that refers to "Password".
Inside, the chosen password must be marked twice: one indicating what the decision was and the other to confirm the decision. After confirmation, this screen lock mode will be active every time an attempt is made to unlock the terminal
Aspect to take into account
Although there is an option that disables all the locks or changes from one mode to another, the system will ask what the current code is either by pattern, by PIN number or by password. Therefore, if the Samsung Galaxy S2 is lost, and there is any active lock, it will always be more difficult to access its content and the owner will have time to try to recover or lock it remotely, erasing all the information.
