My friend locked my phone by holding to * key and now my password will not work. I have tried the 1,2,3,4 and other ones and it still won't unlock. Can you please help me?

Hello
You must have its original remote control to unlock it. If you haven't one with you now, try to get a new one of just gather it from any of your friends or relatives who owns the same model number RCA tv; just to unlock your set. After unlock, you can use any other universal remote control. To unlock your RCA TV, just follow the proceedings given below. One amoung them will surely unlock your TV.

Most RCA TV sets use a four digit code to control the v-chip. The code reset procedure is different depending on the model. Try each method until you find one that works:

1. Hold down MENU on the remote and VOLUME DOWN on the TV it's self at the same time for at least 4 seconds. The set won't say so, but the lock will be unlocked

2. Hold down the 0 on the remote and the VOLUME DOWN buttons on the TV its self at the same time for at least 4 seconds. The set won't say so, but the lock will be unlocked

3. Hold down the MENU button on the front of the TV and the TV button on the remote at the same time for at least 4 seconds.

4. Hold down GO BACK on the remote and MENU on the front of the TV at the same time for at least 4 seconds.

5. Hold down EJECT on the front of the TV and the MENU button on the remote at the same time for at least 4 seconds.
Depending on the model, one of the methods should unlock the V-chip. Now, if desired, you can change the settings on the V-chip by going to the MENU and going to PARENTAL CONTROLS, or on some sets, going to MENU and then going to TV SETUP, then to V-CHIP SET.
Sinotec:
If you have the original remote (RC-A07) for Sinotec tv, then press and hold down the Music button for about 10 seconds

if you remember the actual google ID, just type that and then type the password as "null" in LOWER case, once you do this you will be able to unlock the phone.

2nd solution- you have to reset your phone completely, and you will loose all the information which you had stored in the phone memory, and the SD card wont be effected by this. if its a Android 1.6 version then hold 1.VOLUME UP key, 2.SEND key, TRACK BALL, and the END key at the same time, and hold it untill the phone vibrates, this will unlock your phone

if its a Android 2.1 version, then hold 3 keys
1, volume up key
2.send key
3.power key. hold it till the phone vibrates, relese after that
select data factory reset and then select yes delete all user data, then select reboote system now. and your phone will start rebooting. and your phone is unlocked

This should work.

1. Press and hold the Camera key down, then tap the On button.
2. Release the Camera key when advised.
3. A black screen appears, with green writing. At this stage press the Down volume key to select Recovery Mode.
4. An icon appears, showing a triangle containing an exclamation mark above a handset.
5. Slide open the keypad then press and hold the ALT key and tap the W key.
6. The handset will restart to complete the reset.

This worked for me....
press and hold down the S and the L keys while powering up the phone. Continue to hold the S and L keys after it turns on. It took about a minute of holding the two keys down, but it worked. It did wipe everything I had on there off. Including the lifetime call timer!

there's a logo of a lock on the asterisk button, press and hold in idle mode for 1 sec to lock or unlock.
