For unknown reason no matter how many times i entered the simple pin i had set in place it just wouldnt go through.

This had happened before with another phone so i decided to factory reset

When i factory resetted it told me it was unauthorized and i would need to input pin, a pin that i had forgotten, or google account, that i of course hadnt memorised

Are there any ways to reset the phone out of this?

Do i need to go to a support for this or will a store be able to fix this?

As these security protocols are in place to protect the phone and it's contents you'll need to go through some steps to reset the passwords @Aerogavin 

If you Google Search how to reset your various passwords there are tutorials and steps by Samsung and Google on how to do this.

The advice I offer is my own and does not represent Samsung’s position.
