Help!! My galaxy s6 would no longer recognize my pin. - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was told by seller to do a factory reset. But now it wants to verify google account. Only problem is the only account it will recognize is my work account which is governed by Okta. This mean it wants me to run Okta verify to get a number. Well how am I supposed to do that if I can't get past the google verification screen. I need a way to bypass this. Anybody really know how? I've googled my heart out and only find how to reset - not what I need.

Need some help after factory reset

I performed a factory reset using the Volume Up + Home button + Power button method.
When I rebooted the phone, I get a screen stating that the SIM card is activated and it has my phone number displayed. Pressing next gets me to the Samsung Account sign in screen.
It says that abnormal factory reset was done and that I need to sign in to my Samsung account to verify my identity.
When I try to sign in, it tries for a while and then I get a message that flashes momentarily, stating the there was an "error while connecting to SSL."
I know my Samsung user id and password are good since I can log in to my Samsung account through my PC.
I have a no WiFi indicator on the status bar, just LTE so I don't understand the SSL part.
Calling Samsung was no help. After almost an hour of online chat and calling the the help desk they switched me to their account support dept who said there was nothing wrong with my account and I need to call the jhelp desk again.
I have tried hard reset more than once with the same result.
Is there a way to get around this Samsung Account sign in screen so I can set up my phone?
Edit. Stock Lollipop no root
Edit: To add more information.
I purchased this phone on EBAY. I am trying to contact the seller to obtain the userid and password he used to set up the phone. I am not sure if I can get it or if this will solve my problem. Am I screwed or i there some other way around this problem?

Hate to say, but you probably bought a stolen phone. There was an article somewhere in Q&A about getting around it but I couldn't say if it works or not, and getting support for this here is a little taboo. None of us want to be responsible for helping someone hack into a stolen device.
Understood but the iemi was clean and I was able to activate it on Pageplus which is a Verizon mvno.

Google Samsung S6 reactivation lock bypass. Try calling Samsung again, maybe even Verizon if you can't get hold of the seller from EBAY.
Yeah. Seller claims he never created a Samsung Account id. (Beginning to suspect origin of phone) Samsung said they don't have service centers in my area and the one in Atlanta (closest to me) is no longer in service. Haven't tried Verizon yet but what the heck. Time to return to seller for refund.

Sold phone on Swappa. Buyer getting the device was wiped at setup.

So I sold my phone (Galaxy S6) on Swappa, first time ever. The buyer received the phone went to set it up and the an error reading "This device was reset. To continue, sign in with a Google Account that was previously synced on this device." He recommended doing a video call where I would give him the password so he could get in and remove my account. And I would be able to watch him so I know he isn't stealing my information. I changed my password before giving him it because it is similar to other passwords I use for other logins. When we went to do the call it keeps looping back to that same screen with an error message. I know it recognizing my email because I see my picture pop up when it asked for a password. In my research I just came across articles like this: http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/07/13/dont-change-your-google-password-before-factory-resetting-your-android-phone-you-might-trip-a-72-hour-security-lockout/
I just want to know if I am permantly locked out because I changed my password after I reset, or if we can try again in 72 hours? I can't find anything more clear about changing the password after the factory reset, everything talks about before.

sorry, i cant help with your question, but in the future, remove your account from the phone before factory reset and you wont have this problem.
any phone running lollipop and forward will have this new security on it, and if your phone never had software older than lollipop on it, there is no way to bypass the security check.

Google won't accept my email adress in the frp screen

Hi guys,
Don't ask why, at the time being I tought it was a good idea to disable oem in the developer settings while having a custom rom. That having said, I needed to do a complete reset with odin and flash the stock firmware. Because I still had my google account tied to my phone, they now want that I sign in with that account. After many failed attemps I changed the passwort an finally logged in. But then it said that I should use an account which was previously used with the phone. And I am 100% sure that that is the right one, but google tells me otherwise. I read something about a 24h lock if the password is changed. Is it as simple as waiting a day?
I know it is this email, because when I logged into google in the web, it showed me that the device was recently factory reset. It also showed me my phone nummber and I could see apps which I installed on this phone. I only have on, so that must me it?
I'm really lost here. I already searched for ways to contact google, but I came up with nothing email-related to my problem and I really don't wan't to call them. IIs there a working way to bypass it? I know there were some with earlier security patches.
Also, does anybody know, where I could post this in the google forums? I looked at all of them, but none would fit into my problem. The closest I got wouuld have been google play store
Don't know if it's usefull:
Samsung Galaxy S7 (SM-G930F) running 6.0.1 with firmware downloaded yesterday straight from Samsung
Try that:
Thanks for the help, but the problem resolved itself. After waiting for a day I was able to log in using the account I mentioned. Don't know if it was part of the protection to display that the account was not usable or not, but it hat me severely confused.

How to get rid of Samsung account lock ?

I bought the phone about seven days ago, previous owner doesn't know the email that he used on the phone, it could be stolen, I'm not sure, but is there a way to break it ? I can access everything, tried to stop Samsung account process, factory reset requires Samsung account again. What else I could try ?
It is SM-G920F model.

Locked out of S10e (too many pattern attempts) - BRICKED?

Asking for a friend - no really! His wife locked herself out of her S10e. Also forgot her google user name. Her recovery email is a yahoo email but she also set up 2 step verification so she needs to get into her phone to get the recovery email. So she can't factory reset the phone without her google account and she can't recover the google account info because of the 2 step verification on her Yahoo mail.
Verizon has been ZERO help as has Geek Squad and everyone else they have asked. They feel like the phone is now a very expensive paperweight. Does anyone know any thing they can do? She just got this phone and is pretty upset. :crying: Thanks in advance for any help!
Factory reset, or, return the device if possible. Tell them you are cancelling your cell phone service and going to the competitor.

Odin ftw

You can put in Odin and install the factory software, but I don't think it will help if there is a FRP lock, because when you go to log into the phone on the factory reset startup, it will ask for your google account to proceed.
So, BTW, Odin is not the solution to FRP lock. If there is a solution, then you should not post it publicly because criminals will read this, even if it does help a couple innocents. Smart criminals will be able to find a way, but the majority of criminals will not be so smart, that's the reason they are thieves, because they are stupid morons with an 80 IQ and unable to get a real job because they are losers lowlife criminal scum. We don't want to give them a way to actually use a stolen phone..
