Locked out because of Too many pattern attempts
Hi!
Can somebody please help me login to my tablet TF101. I set a pattern lock but my kids might have attempted to unlock the tablet quite few times and now I am getting this message "Too many pattern attempts". I tried using my gmail account but it seems that its not recognizing it.
Thanks a bunch!!

if the wifi is connected your gmail account should work. If the WIFI is off, I'm afraid that the most likely fix is going to be a factory data reset through the bootloader (power down, press and hold volume - and power until you see 4 icons, selec the wipe data selection and let it work). The data wipe will wipe absolutely everything.

That is recovery, not a factory reset. When holding VOL DOWN and POWER, do not push vol up at the white text. Wait for the next screen with 2 icons and choose the WIPE DATA option.

I have been locked out of my Asus Transformer TFT101 due to several pattern attempts, and my gmail id is not being accepted. How do i proceed. I do not want to loose my content on my Eee Pad. For proof of purchase i have my amazon bill in my Amazon account. How do i reset the password?

I tried this several times and it is still bringing me to the Google account sign in. When the screen with the two icons appears I am able touch the android symbol and it will start; however, even when I press down to switch/highlight the "wipe data" option I am unable to touch it and in 10 seconds it starts up. I have done this several times and nothing. Please help! Thanks, in advance!

Use the VOL DOWN button to select the other icon, then VOL UP to confirm. Twice.

Hi All, I have an Asus Transformer Eee Prime TF201. I have the original box and i think the receipt is still in it. My wife and I have four children (all boys). The oldest tried to do the pattern and locked out my tablet. I have been reading posts about how to fix this. I do not want to erase the memory because i have pics and videos of the kids! Also, I could not even wipe the data if i wanted to because i cannot get to the USB selection in the bootloader. I am able to get to the screen that shows the four icons (RCK, Android, USB, Wipe Data) but for the life of me i cannot select any icon.. the RCK is the only one highlighted. I tried up / down volume buttons. I hope someone can help.

Ok.. I was able to get to the USB icon. It is now highlighted. I ran "adb devices", but it does not show up. I am on a windows box. I will try on linux now.. keep you posted.
Update.. i was able to get to the USB icon and then run "fastboot devices" and it found my device. I guess I have to create an Update.zip file and have it run on the device somehow.
Do I copy the file to a micro SD card?
