Hi there!
It's the first time i hear about such issue.
Please update your device to the latest firmware (20180124), perform a factory reset and report back ;)

This also seems to have happened to my phone today. Have used it several months, then suddenly does not accept PIN.
Have data on it that I do not want to wipe.
Please advise...

Can you unlock it with fingerprint?

Cannot unlock with fingerprint. That stopped working too. No response when I try.

I can't see any other solution except a factory reset, unfortunately.

I did some searching around and I found something that's meant to use Google's "Find my Device".
In order to do it, you'll need to go to https://www.google.com/android/find and log in to your connected google account. When it finds your phone, choose the lock option and it should prompt you to put in a new password.

This is meant to override the current password when set (after some delay ~5mins)

Thanks for your precious feedback!
This solution may work, so... let's hope that! ;)

My phone has also just changed it's PIN and I can no longer access the phone.
I normally use finger print access and every once in awhile it will also prompt me for the PIN.
This had been working for many months prior to lunchtime today.

Help :-(
