How to recover missing or deleted contacts? This problem is faced by many users of android devices, including owners of Alcatel smartphones. In this article, you will find information that allows you to return lost contacts to Alcatel and other similar smartphones running on the Android operating system. All the methods below were shared by the users of android devices themselves, and perhaps one of the methods will help you solve the problem with contacts. I would also like to say that not always missing contacts from the SIM card or from the phone's memory are completely deleted, perhaps they are hidden through the settings of the device itself by accident or on purpose.
Check in the Android settings which contacts are currently displayed. To do this, open "Contacts" then the "Menu" button and select "Filter contacts" in the menu that opens. To display all contacts on the phone, in the new menu that opens, select "All contacts". Also, if necessary, you can choose other options at your discretion. If it doesn’t help, then just below, see the tips left by users of android devices.

Tutorial: How to Unlock an Android Device if You Forgot Password and Email Password
Note. The device I have had success with is an Android phone running . We're not sure if this will work on other versions, but you should give it a try.
1. The first thing I did was to press the "Emergency Call" and "Home Button" alternately and as quickly as possible. This way you will be able to enter the work screen for a while, but you need to be on the lookout to get this because it will happen in the middle of pressing the emergency button and home. My advice is to slow down sometimes because you can catch him doing it.
2. When I first got to the desktop, I got locked out again when I tried to open the app and other apps. So I tried the trick again and this time I removed the notification area and clicked on "Settings" which allowed me to enter it. Since I already know that I can't do much in the settings, I immediately think of a good move.
3. I turned on Wi-Fi and synced the attached Gmail account in the hope that it would take the new password that I would impose on it. I was able to set a new password because I have a recovery email address that allows me to reset my password at any time. If you don't have one, you will be asked your own security questions to fill out, and after that you can enter a new password to be used on your Gmail account. If you don't remember the answer, I'm afraid you need to look elsewhere.
4. From there, I tried to enter a new passcode on the lock screen of an Android phone connected to Wi-Fi and voila! It worked amazingly! I succeeded unlock android phone without forgotten pattern and password by email!
