My S22 Ultra updated to Android 13 this morning. Since then on two separate occasions when I took the phone out of my pocket, it says 'Too many incorrect unlock attempts' and it makes me wait before I can do anything with the phone. The first time it made me wait 5 minutes and the second time 11 minutes.

 

I cannot enter the PIN and I cannot even turn off the phone until the time has expired. Never experienced this before.

 

What on earth is going on and how do I stop it?

Hi,

I have a Samsung A52s 5G and I'm facing the same issue. The main problem is that after the restart of Android 13 upgrade, the message immediately appeared locked after too many attempts, only allowing me to try again after 23h 40m (still counting down)

I try the wipe cache solution and it didn't work with one more problem. Every attempt to wipe the cache and restart, the counter goes again to 23h 40m... 

What I can do to unblock the phone and disable some options?
