Samsung One UI 9 Locks the Phone Forever After 13 Wrong Codes
Samsung is sharply raising lockscreen security in One UI 9, its skin based on Android 17. The new rule is strict. Enter the wrong passcode 13 times in a row, and the device refuses every further unlock attempt. At that point, only a full reset can revive the phone. As a result, any data the user never backed up is lost for good.
