do factory reset under recovry mode

If its an Android phone and its running Kitkat, go to this link: https://www.google.com/android/devicemanager. Log in with the gmail you used on your phone. Enable "lock & erase" then click on lock to set another password for your phone.
Now use the new password to unlock your phone.
Note: this process requires that internet is enabled on your phone.

when the phone is off, hold the green button,red button, * button and d number 3 button... Hold all of then together...it will reboot,remember it will wipe away everything on the phone memory.. If u do it and it bring up the menu to choose language,then it has been reboot.. If it ask for a password,put it and see if it will open.. If not,i'll suggest u flash d phone.
