Click on Unlock Android Screen under the Unlock tab and select your brand from the list of brands. After that, just tap Remove Without Data Loss because this 100% Remove Screen Lock tool doesn’t support any other brand.
Then, Dr.Fone directs you to another page where it asks for some information about your device: Device OS, Brand, and Model. Just tap Start Detection after entering all necessary information.
