I don't know the answer to your question, but I was curious to know if 22 attempts was anywhere near a bruteforce attack on a 4 point pattern. This Quora thread contains some interesting breakdowns of the number of possible patterns that Android permits. https://www.quora.com/Android-operating-system-How-many-comb... If we assume that you don't know the number of points in use on a phone you're trying to unlock, the consensus seems to be there are in the region of 390,000 distinct patterns. One correspondent doubled that. In the case where you know the pattern has 4 points, the number of valid permutations was calculated to be 1624. Your 22 attempt crack is well short of that figure so I think you are being harsh on yourself by implying you basically just got lucky. You're good at this! |
