I forgot my password to my Samsung Galaxy prime and I was wondering if you can help me get back in?

I would like for you to help me get back in my phone and change the password that I forgot. Well I set a password on my phone and I forgot the password and I can't get back in my phone and its not showing email to get in my phone as well. I have tried: I tried some passwords that I thought was, but that wasn't it. I think it was caused by: Well I think my sister changed it but she said she doesn't remember the password.

It can take up to 30 attempts before you finally see the Forgot Password link. If you do not have data or WiFi enabled, then the Google Account will not unlock the device. Go to your Google Account on the PC. Under My Account, there is a section for 2 Step Verification. Make sure this is disabled

Did you authorize any third party apps like Kaspersky Internet Security to be able to access your security settings? There are several third party apps for security locks or even have ads in them for other apps. If you are not paying attention you could do that. Also, if your phone screen was active during a phone call, you may have activated the pin. Try 0000 or 1234. They might work. Then see if you can use your Google Account or Samsung's Find My Mobile to unlock your device. Just as a preventive measure, new phone's should always have a pin setup like your ATM PIN code as prevention for situations like this.
