Is there any way to bypass the pattern unlock on a Galaxy A9 tablet?? ๐Ÿ˜ฌ I haven't used this thing in years and want to donate it but I need to be able to open it and cannot for the life of me remember what I set the pattern password to.

I'm ok with resetting it. How can I do that when it's locked though?

As long as you remember your Google password, you might be able to reset it with no issues.

How to reset device:

โ€ขPlug your tablet into a USB Host
โ€ขForce restart the tablet
โ€ขQuickly hold the volume up and power buttons
โ€ขLet go when you see the Samsung logo
โ€ขNavigate to Factory Data Reset and press "Confirm"
โ€ขDo the setup
โ€ขEnter your Google Password if you remember
โ€ขReset the device through settings

If you are going to reset it, I recommend NOT logging back into your Google or Samsung accounts and, in fact, logging it out of both accounts. You should be able to force reset it the way @Chummy128 described.
