It can be very frustrating if you have locked yourself out of your phone due to forgetting your password. After some research, it appears there are rather differing opinions on if it is indeed even possible to reset the phone yourself if you have locked yourself out.
Many have said that you simply can't reset it. You should certainly have a really hard think about what your password may be. Is it something you've used on other accounts? You may well be able to head to another secure account, like your email account, and see what that password is. If it automatically signs you in, you can still count the stars that disguise the password. This could jot your memory of the password.
Some fellow Samsung Solstice users have said you can reset the phone if you type in the following code *2767*3855#. However, this can not really be verified and so you may wish to use some caution before proceeding with typing in this code.
The best advice would be to take your phone to a local cell phone or mobile phone store. They will no doubt be familiar with the model and should be able to let you know the trick in resetting the phone. There are also small independent stores found in many markets and shopping centres that will reset and unlock phones. They will of course charge a small fee but it will work out a lot cheaper than having to buy a new phone altogether.
