    Hi there. I would like to know if you can guide me: I have restarted my Xiaomi RedMi Note 4 and it asks me for the pattern, which I do not remember because I usually open applications with my fingerprint. It is associated with my gmail account. I have read and watched tutorials all day, my question is if it can be accessed without deleting my information, considering that it has my fingerprint associated with it and my email as well.
    Thank you very much in advance, I work from my cell phone and I have information about her on it

    My redmi note 4 does not charge on even though the light and the charging symbol come on, I have to turn it off. It gets quite hot. I don't know what to do anymore. I tried changing the charger cable and nothing, I would appreciate a solution.
