UPDATE: I just realized the title sounds malicious. Please read of my post.
I was seated in a cafeteria when I found a smart phone on the ground. There was someone who got his jacket from the seat next to mine and the Android must have slipped out the pocket and fell to the ground.
It is an HTC One M8.
The lock screen says "No SIM card in phone", so we can't expect a call from the owner.
How can I break through the 3x3 pattern lock? I'd like to look through the contact list to phone the owner's contacts and notify them of the missing phone.
I have a USB cable that works with this phone. Would USB be a way to get this important info? UPDATE: I've just connected it to my linux laptop and the file manager doesn't display anything. Presumably because of the lock on the Android.
