          Complex passwords with two languages ftw!

            ChronoRad, 23 Jun 2018You suck at math dude, 6 digits equals 152k combinations and each code check takes at least 3 ... moreWouldn't 6 digits have 1,000,000 possible combinations considering a range of 000000-999999? Rest of your comment is correct. Taking an average of 5 seconds per attempt for a 6 digit code to process (presumably longer than its 4 digit counterpart), we arrive at a figure of 60×60÷5 = 720 attempts per hour (GSMArena's figure of 100 attempts per hour is way off). It'd take 1,000,000/720 = 1388.88 hours, or 1388.88/24 = 57.87 days to successfully brute force every possible combination. Though, practically speaking there is no need to brute force to the last possible combination. The average passcode is likely to lie somewhere around the middle, cutting the time required into half i.e 57.87÷2 = 28.93 days.

              suarez92, 23 Jun 2018Laggy IOS ? Laggple? What are you using Iphone 4? Are you serious? Ohhh wait, you adore Xiaomi... moreAnd by the way i adore the best phone for best price.
              When something cost like fortune it doesnt means its top quality.
              Just for example Note 7.
              Or HTC U11 and plenty more.

                suarez92, 23 Jun 2018Laggy IOS ? Laggple? What are you using Iphone 4? Are you serious? Ohhh wait, you adore Xiaomi... moreMan well if you use your phone once per year yes its working but on daily basis Iphone is distaster after a year.
                And plastic Xiaomi? Basic models maybe.
                But i do remember when Iphone 5C has been made and was plastic and we speak about 550 eur phone.
                Also i remember a topic at gsmarena where was said a 3 Iphones will be released this year and the budget one will cost 800 eur and also will be made of plastic.
                So someone here its totally stupid but its not me.

                    Kiyasuriin, 23 Jun 2018Hm... As far as I know Android limits passwords to 256 characters. So I don't assume it's THAT... moreNo its not its only 24 digits but there is everything. Letters big and small letters numbers even symbols. When i turn off and on the phone i must pass all the security but for screen unlocking is either password or fingerprint scanenr.

Are you serious? Ohhh wait, you adore Xiaomi and their plastic design so you probably live in some third world countries where Iphone 4 is newest model.

                        FYI : I used Iphone 6s, Iphone 7, Iphone 8, Iphone X, neither one of them is laggy, even Iphone 6s which is older model, i turned on a few days ago and it is quite fast on switching tasks and opening apps.

                                      A 6 digit code using the numbers 0-9 where you can repeat numbers would give 10 possible numbers for each digit giving you 10x10x10x10x10x10 or 10^6 = 1,000,000 possible answers.

                                      If each number had to be unique then you come up with 152k combinations eg. 10x9x8x7x6x5 = 151,200

                                      as we know you can repeat numbers on an iOS password so its 1 million different combinations.

                                      Each taking 3 seconds is 3,000,000 seconds divided by 86,400 (number of seconds in a day) equals 35 days
