How to unlock a phone that has been factory reset and needs an old Google account

FRP bypass introduced by Google to protect user data has already become a big boon to Google. As it is causing unnecessary issues after resetting your device. In order to avoid all those jargon’s, it is recommended to download the FRP bypass apk tool developed for android devices. After downloading and installing the app, please make sure you adhere to the steps mentioned.

  • Download the Frp bypass apk.
  • After downloading, save the file to a USB drive.
  • Start your device, you will be now welcomed with FRP security check.
  • Once the initiation process is over, you will be asked to enter google account credentials.
  • It’s the stage where you get stuck as you don’t know the credentials. Now plug in the USB drive using OTG cable. Connect the OTG with your Android device.

  • To solve this go to the settings ( settings which will be shown along with the error) and enable unknown sources.
  • Now, wait until the application gets installed.

What tools do phone shops use to bypass FRP locks on Samsung phones?

I don’t care if you are a burglar or not, but I’ve been through it – getting my Galaxy locked up with some red texts on the boot screen. If you have this, brace yourself – you will witness the most powerful wipe in the history as your pictures, contacts, videos, babe text messages, buhnrop password slowly fades away in the snap of a finger (unless they are already in the clouds – you’re safe).

I use a tool called Odin, which is mainly used to flash and restore the firmware on Galaxy devices (which is like reinstalling Windows on your beloved PC – you get it, pressing custom, picking your C: drive and wipe it clear, and then write data into it). I don’t know if this still works with newer Galaxy devices as I haven’t used phones for 1–2 years lately (I live under a rock) and I guess that Samsung has implemented some neat security features like KNOX, but if you really want to try, then I cannot stop you anymore.

You can find the tutorials on the internet – basically involves downloading the stock firmware from websites (like SamMobile), place it in Odin, put your phone to Download mode and snap your finger. Magic happens, your data will vanish and your phone won’t feel well, and it will start to disappear in a matter of seconds. And then it will wake up like when it is bought.

In some cases, you can use a trick to get access to the phone’s settings and factory reset the phone from there – because FRP won’t be triggered if the reset is executed inside an unlocked session (erm, you get the point, Android won’t FRP you if you reset the phone when it’s unlocked). This involves tricking the Galaxy to install an application to get access into your phone’s Settings app, and from there, get into the Factory Reset section and *boom*. You can find more information from the internet (whoops, if you want to commit crime, DIY pls). Beware that this trick only works when you are FRP locked inside the OS – means that you are locked when trying to finish the setup process (Google asks you to log in with the previously logged account). This won’t work if your phone is hard-locked, means that the FRP activates when your phone is booting, which results in a bunch of red texts in the left corner of the screen – something that scared the sh*t out of me.

And lastly, be careful. I Googled your question and ended up with some nasty instructions which involves going into youtube and sharing their video (What?). But hey, there are a few good people willing to give you the right instructions on how to unlock your phone. Good luck.

Does flashing a phone remove FRP?

No, the only way to remove FRP is by sending a command to the recovery from a booted android system

Some phones however do not disable the factory flashing methods like qfil or msm download protocol. FRP can be bypassed on these if you can somehow access these modes and the manufacturer has a factory image publicly accessible

Tl;dr you have to press the reset button in your android system
