Factory reset restoration after forgotten password

[userEWxoylySYw]

I forgot the pattern for my phone, and eventually had to factory reset it. After setting it up, it required me to use my pattern to restore my data, which has now been deleted. Is there any way to restore the perma-deleted data?

Hey there,

Prior to having to factory reset your device, was your data backed up to a Samsung cloud?

Give this link here a shot giving additional information on how to access your Samsung cloud:

Hi, and thank you for the reply. I don't believe I had that set up before the factory reset... Is there a place where the deleted data is stored that I would be able to access?

Unfortunately, there is not.

You can set up Samsung's Find My Phone app so you can unlock your phone remotely if you get locked out of your phone--but it needs to be set up before you get locked out. Maybe you gave the app remote unlock permission when you set up your phone and don't remember.
