Home Screen l Set a pattern: Unlock your Phone by drawing a preset pattern on the screen. For better security, use a pattern that includes overlapping line segments. Go to Set lock screen password > Change unlock method > Pattern and draw the same pattern twice. The pattern must connect at least 4 dots. l Set a password: A password made up of numbers, letters, and special characters is more secure than a PIN or pattern.
