Hello! I understand the importance of recovering those precious memories from your sister's Samsung Note 3 before resorting to a factory reset. Here are some steps you can try to retrieve the files:

1. Google Account: If your sister used a Google account on the Samsung Note 3, you can try using Google's Find My Device feature to remotely unlock the phone. This may help in accessing the files without resetting the device.

2. Samsung Find My Mobile: If your sister had a Samsung account linked to the device, you can try using Samsung's Find My Mobile service to unlock the phone remotely.

3. USB Debugging: If USB debugging was enabled on the device before getting locked out, you might be able to use Android Debug Bridge (ADB) to access the device's files from a computer.

4. Data Extraction Tool: There are third-party data extraction tools available that can help recover files from a locked Android device. However, these tools may require the device to be rooted, which can be complex and void the warranty.

5. Professional Data Recovery Services: If the above methods don't work, you may consider seeking help from professional data recovery services that specialize in recovering data from locked Android devices.

Remember, it's crucial to prioritize data recovery over resetting the device. If none of these methods work, consider seeking assistance from a professional to safeguard those precious memories.
