I have a S8 (bought new) for long time, and today, sundely Pattern lock stop working always says "Incorrect Patter Draw". I'm pretty sure I'm doing it correctly, as it is the same I have on other device. Consider this:

This not worked for me... Have a J4, didn't make tring tring sound...
I made a cloud backup. Should I erase data and restore backup?

same here with my tab 10: the pattern (with an overlapping dot) suddenly no longer works. I have the remote unlock active but it keeps giving me 'something went wrong'. How do i do factory resetting?

You sir saved me. VERY TRUE if you are doing your correct pattern after 1000x times and it does not offer cool off period... most likely it's a glitch and will work with a simple switch off and turn back on!!!!
Phone is back to normal now. THANK YOU

My pattern lock is broken and locked me out of my phone. I've used the same lock for years so I know it's the right one I'm trying. Soft reset (volume down + power for 10s) didn't help. I tried the pattern 30+ times now and just get the error:
"incorrect pattern drawn"- or - "Try again in 30 seconds"
Didn't set up the Samsung account before so I can't do remote unlock, and don't have other security access set up. I'm not out of the house much so just kept things simple.
Now I'm panicking because I need this phone for 2-factor authentication, to access my work on Microsoft account, banking, etc. Factory reset would be disruptive, it'll take me hours to set up my phone with everything again; and I can't believe that's the only option. How can the software forget my security pattern?
