Need help to unlock PIN for Xperia S

Hello

I have set up a PIN lock for my Xperia S (LT26i). Now I can not remember exactly what I choose as PIN number. I forgot the PIN I previously set. Cannot use my phone since PIN is required to unlock screen. How can I unlock my phone from this point? I have tried to undate my phone and have updated it successfully but screen is still locked. Need help desperately regarding this matter. Thanks

Hi I've tried this method but I couldn't get into my phone.

I don't know what to do I can't remember the pin number so the phone is locked!

It's been a while since i used the phone cos I got a new one but I want to go back to this one I've tried all the combo's I always use but none of them work.

Is there any other way to reset the phone with the screen lock on??

I'm at my wits end.

 Thanks
