Forgotten password for xperia j

[Bradistan]

Receltly decided to start using my Xperia J again but have forgotton my pass lock and recoveries so i am now unable to access my phone... i have downloaded PC companion but it refuses to connect with my phone (i dont know if this will be because i have no sim card in it as it has been cut to fit my iphone which i no longer use) and i have also downloaded the update service but there is no option for the xperia J! i have also tried the whole holding the power and volume at the same time but it just turns on like normal and goes to no reset menu and i have also dont the emergency call with the (#*#*) thing code but when i enter the codes people say nothing happens! is there anyway to bypass my old password or a simple way of resetting it? i dont mind about loosing contacts etc but i need a phone for an upcoming event and nothing i am doing is working! ( the phone is basically in mint condition so there is no issues with the phone)

Ok then,take the phone to a sony service,maybe they can reinstall the software and remove the lock.

are you sure there are no like ways of doing it with other ones you can type in *#*#7378423#*#* and it just goes straight to the option settings that doesnt work with my phone but is there another code?

You need access to the phone in order to type what you said.And that does not help you at all.But you can wait for others to come,it is your choice in the end.

May be i dont know

Flashmode means switchoff the device and wait for 1mi. Then press volume doenkey or any other key 

Fto start in

here is another way to boot in safe mode : switch off the phone> turn it on> when the xperia logo appeared> hold vol down until the phone vibrate.

if there is no phone lock appeared, run pc companion and try to repair the software back. hope it will work
