I didn't forget my pin, but my Galaxy S22 isn't accepting my pin and has locked me out! How can I bypass this lock or reset the pin without a hard factory reset? I don't want to lose everything I have on the phone!

All you have to do is a reset and restore from your back up and the phone should be just like it was

The only way is to factory reset since they are no way to bypass the screen lock

How do you do it from a back up? I thought a factory reset would clear all information.

Once you reset you will get the option to setup the device when you sign in to your google and samsung accounts its been awhile since I had to do it

No if your phone was backup regular to google and stuff everything should be just like it was before the reset.
