Hi guys,

colleague at work decided to play a prank and put a password on my nexus 7 tablet.

Except he forgot the password.

Now going by google's method to reset without going into the devices settings (through bootloader) doesn't work for me, as although it'll come up with the android on his back and the start button, from there the volume down button the article seems to suggest will bring up the option to reset never does anything.

Anyone able to help? "/
