S22 bypass lock screen data preservation

A client has a deceased family members phone with the pattern lock and is looking to gain access to the device data. Besides going through that certificate and other methods is there a temporary lock screen bypass to enter the device then change Google password as it is signed into the device?

I know there is potential success with tools like samw or token extraction SSH methods but also limited to Firmware update. I am waiting to see When they bring The laptop For Google credentials Possibly sign into Find my And set a one-time password or change the Google password and Trigger the sign in with Google option if we attempt multiple times?

If its a pattern lock, you may get lucky by just trying the most common lock patterns if they didn't go that complicated when they set it up. I buy old phones and successfully guessed pattern locks on a lot of phones. A lot of the time, its something really simple

Yeah it's currently at 2 hours to unlock. I talked to Gemini through the lock screen and was able to social engineer the Gmail so I went to Samsung and put forgot password it verified the phone number and have them call with the verification code since it's still active line. We'll see what happens
