1. Go to Settings by clicking the clock in the lower-right corner of the screen, then click the Settings gear icon.
2. Click Screen lock.
3. Enter your password for your Chromebook.
4. Make sure the Show lock screen when waking from sleep toggle is on.

Each method means something different and requires a different approach.
If you're trying to unlock your Galaxy Watch from the network carrier, then you're in luck, because Galaxy Watches are not carrier-locked. However, your watch may be administrated by a specific carrier, typically the carrier your smartphone is attached to, and if you change carriers, you'll need to turn on Reactivation Lock to get your Galaxy Watch connected.

How Do I Factory Reset My Galaxy Watch 4?
There are two ways to factory reset your Galaxy Watch 4. If the watch is still connected to your phone, and you have your phone, you can initiate the reset through the Wearable app that you use to set up and control all Samsung wearable devices. You can also factory reset your Galaxy Watch 4 directly through the watch. These methods both initiate a full factory reset, wipe all of your data from the watch, and return it to the same state it was in when you first obtained it. That means you can use whichever method you prefer or whichever one is more convenient.

What’s the Difference Between Factory and Soft Resetting a Galaxy Watch 4?
When you soft reset a Galaxy Watch 4, it's the same as turning it off and back on again. It's the same as turning your phone, computer, or laptop off and then back on, which is almost always one of the first steps in troubleshooting any problem. Since you're just turning the watch off and then back on, the process won't remove any of your data from the watch.
Factory resetting a Galaxy Watch 4 removes all of your data and customization, disconnects the watch from your phone, and returns it to the same state it was in when it originally left the Samsung factory. It's sometimes also used as a troubleshooting tool, but it's usually a last resort as you need to go through the entire initial setup process again if you want to keep using the watch. It's also important to back up your watch before performing a factory reset unless you're not worried about losing your data and customization.
- How do I turn off my Galaxy Watch 4?
