Hi @Anand_28,

This is unfortunate, let us see if we can help.

You could attempt clearing the settings apps data.

Menu > Settings > Apps > Settings > Clear Data

Let us know how you get on.

I just wanted to change my pattern into a new one. The system said: unfortunately, setting has stopped.

I thought the problem would end if I install the new update. But no. I've got a M5. May someone could help me? Thank you in advance.
