How to set up protection

This can be done using the 'Slider', 'Face Control' (not every device has), 'Pattern', 'PIN-code' or 'Password'.

How to reset a forgotten cipher

There are two main methods of getting into the operating system if you forget your password.

The first is a factory reset. To do this, you need to enter the 'Recovery' mode. The way to get into it depends on the specific device: to find out the algorithm, you need to refer to the official instructions or to the manufacturer's technical support.

Another way to bypass the screen lock is to reflash the gadget. However, in this case there is a risk of getting a non-working device.
