I have a broken Samsung Note 9 which suffers from a green flickering screen making it incredibly difficult to gain access to it in order to turn USB debugging on and transfer my old photos/data off it.

I’ve found a solution using Samsung Dex and a usb-c to hdmi cable, however due to having a pattern unlock and a glitchy screen, it’s tricky to start up my phone with my pattern and now the auto factory reset option has enabled, leaving me with only 1 attempt to unlock my device before it factory resets.

I’ve managed to gain access to it/input my pattern multiple times when previously trying different options, however this time I haven’t been as lucky.

Is anyone aware if the attempts reset over time if I left my phone for awhile, or will it remember I only have one attempt left, even after letting it drain and sitting for a couple of months?

Thanks!
