Please , if you or someone you Know , sold a Samsung Gear S2 on Amazon Warehouse Deals I need you to unlock it, it could be the one I bought.
Thanks
Hi, my name is Cesar and I live in Argentina. My parents bought me a Samsung Gear S2 when they went to New York Last Month.
When we were looking for the price i found a deal on Amazon Warehouse for 40 dolars less, so i told them to bought that one.
It has been a couple of weeks trying to pair it whith my phone, talking to Amazon Coustomer Service, to Samsung Coustomer Service here and in the USA and the only solution is to find the previous owner and he/she unlock it
Please, I really need your help to diffuse this message.
Thanks
PS: if anybody needs pictures of the phone or the Amazon bill please let me know.
I bought and returned one, and I know that I I didn't unlock it (didn't realize I needed to). I doubt my returned S2 is yours, but I don't even know how to unlock it from my Samsung account!

Aparently you only have to sing in in Samsung web page, go to your products and remove it
It`s seems easy, please let me know
Thanks
I don't even see it as an option when I log into my Samsung account from a web browser - I see other devices - such as tablets and older phones. I do see my current phone listed which is currently paired with the S2, But no Gear S2 is listed on the Samsung Find My Mobile account.
There's no easy way to find out if reactivation lock is enabled - there is no more security option in settings. When I first got the watch, I distinctly remember not enabling that feature - but after subsequent resets of the watch (for testing) I was unsure if I had enabled it at one point. I eventually found a way - if you attempt to reset the watch, it will say in the warning message - that reactivation lock has been enabled for the watch.
Yes, I have tried like a thousand times, i really don´t know what else to do.
In The Samsung web it´s a way to unable it but you need the gear app for the phone i think.
I´m getting very dissapointed with this, it´s looks like a great whatch bue I have it in a box, it really sucks.
Have you found a way to fix the issue. I have the same issue

hello,
i bought a samsung focus 2 from ebay not knowing it was originally a store demo model. it was on the 7.5 OS but was able to force the 7.8 official release onto it (just kept doing the update till it went through). but it didn't fix the issue with it loading the demo software once it would boot back up. i have followed all the ideas posted on here about doing soft/hard resets but know the info is stored on a portion of the phone that updates won't overwrite.
i have done my searches on here and they were never answered by the person who started the thread and were quite old as well. is there a generic ROM i can load that will block the demo or does anyone know how i can hack the phone (bootloader, registry) to stop or delete this nonsense.
i cannot get my money back for this phone as the person deleted their ebay/paypal account. i have been on the phone with both and it's just not going to happen. so my only option is to hack the phone.... i don't want to sell it to someone else knowing it has this problem as i know it will come back on me and i just don't have it in me to rip someone off like i was basically just done.
i'm extremely noob when it comes to hacking a phone or registry so would need it in simple instructions.
it seems like a nice phone and would be a great backup so i don't want to brick it or break it. i would like to eventually use it so anyones help would be greatly appreciated.
this is the white samsung focus 2 SGH-I667
now that i look, i'm not 100% sure it actually updated to 7.8. it says it on the about screen, but it feels like it's still on 7.5... how can i be sure it's updated or not.
thanks !
Go to windowsphonehacker.com and try the tutorial for installing custom ROM in Samsung phones.
(I can't post the link because I'm a new member)
7.8 has resizable tiles like wp8, check your start screen
I have the same problem. I bought the demo phone for my wife ): Did you solved ? Thank you.

if you can find a custom rom for this device then that will do the trick but having looked at the focus 2 forum, it seems to be a device that has received no attention at all!
There are no unlocks, no roms, no nothing!
Mabie the other WP hacking sites might have one but on here there's nothing for that phone, strange!
I'm fooled by the eBay seller. I do not want to cheat someone else.
I can't believe that no one wants to solve the problem with the second generation of Samsun Focus phones!
I'm willing to pay. Just to have functional phone

Hi There I was just reading your post. I think you have a Focus 2? Well I have a Samsung Focus S, and it is also on demo mode, just finished debranding it and interloping it also. I also just finished disabling the demo mode. Don't know if it can also work on the Focus 2, it is just a registry edit. maybe it can work for you. If you still need help email me at [email protected]
Hi all,
Around 6 months ago I sold a Samsung Galaxy S3 on eBay. Before I sold the phone I did a factory reset and thought that would be fine.
However, I am getting map notifications from the old phone. From Bangkok Thailand! I have removed the phone from my devices in the Play Store and done everything else I could think of but it is still happening and its very annoying
Obviously the new user probably doesnt realise and they dont have access to paid apps in the store as they dont have my password - basically I find it very irritating and would like to know how to stop it.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Hello everyone! I got a new Samsung Galaxy S6 GT-920F and would love to install Samsung Pay on it. I searched on it on the phone itself, there was none. I searched on the Play store aswell, still, the application wasn't there. So I downloaded it from the browser and it would go past the " Authorize Fingerprint " screen. So I downloaded an older version ad it said that my device isn't compatible. I don't know what else to try honestly. Do you guys know anything? And the phone isn't rooten or anything, it's on stock 6.0.1. Thanks in advance!
I think you have to have a carrier phone to use Samsung Pay. At least with 5.x. I seem to remember speculation that MM would enable it on non-carrier phones but I don't recall seeing anything about this yet.
Hey guys, So I purchased a S7 on ebay after clearing the IMEI through Verizon's Fraud Department. I then made sure the Imei matched the Original Phone Box, Receipt and back glass. All was well so I was happy with the purchase. It had a broken front screen and I went through the repair and fixed it!
Was really happy to save money by repairing an S7.
Only issue is what I have no learned to be FRP. She reset the phone before sending it to me which is completely understandable.
I've emailed her in ebay about it and she said she would get back to me with the gmail account but hasn't responded regarding giving me the password.
I fully understand and don't expect her to give me their password. That's a bit ridiculous of me to expect that. All I want is the clean clear phone I bought from her and be able to use it.
So A few things, Im not just here for this. I also want to get into rooting which is why I registered, I hope to be of help in the future as I learn more and more about getting those
terrible factory apps and stuff that comes from verizon.
1. Which is the best method about doing an FRP Bypass. I see people on ebay that will do it for like 20 bucks remotely over team view. Others send a usb drive.
2. I absolutely can provide proof of purchase through screen shots on ebay, as well as the item number to show you who bought it. (Same Username of course)
I totally understand frp is to prevent theft, which is great. It just sucks that the owner didn't know she was selling me her locked phone. Shes the original owner. She didn't have insurance so when she broke the screen she had to buy a new one and thats why she sold this one on ebay. She's been super helpful and nice
as we exchange emails on ebay. But short of driving 5 hrs each way to meet in person frp bypass is my only option. I gave her the option of me driving there, I would spend the time/gas to meet at her local verizon store so i dont have to do this mess.
I did attemp a frp bypass on albviral but I must have done it wrong, and it seemed a bit complicated. Again, I can provide proof that I did not steal this phone. Whatever I need to do to
not lose even more money from the purchase and repair.
If any help, I'd be super appreciated.
thanks
Well they changed their password because she couldn't remember it so I can only assume theres a 24hr lock out period or something. It wont log in. And even using a recovery email and her sending me the verify code it wont let us into the phone.
Update:
Lady changed their google password and it still wont log in. I tried clicking forgot and it sent a code to the recovery email which she logged in, got and sent me.
After I tried that it just kept kicking me back to the start of frp by saying "Log in using an account that was synced to this device" and taking me to a screen to put in the gmail.
When I try random passwords it says wrong password. But when I try the one she made today it just kicks back. 24hr period? I really hope that's all it is.
I even put in their names to confirm account and it kicks me back saying that isnt correct. She said he can't remember anything and has to get new passwords all the time much less knowing what was used when they orginally go the phone. So I guess i'll try in 24hrs and if not then I'll try someone on ebay? idk.
Flash an older firmware with ODIN that has an FRP bypass tutorial on YT
It's been done. Now I get a security notice that unauthorized changes have been detected, restart phone to undo.
Obviously im not going to do that but will it ever go away.
I'll shortly install sim card and activate phone. I appreciate the help.
Now for me to research rooting!
Wow this is terrible. The prev. owner called verizon tech support and had the phone cleared off her account but it still won't let us activate it. They said wait 24hrs and see if that takes care of
it and if not then the phone is useless. Doesnt even make sense that the original owner contacted them, cleared her and the phone and still may not be usable.
Alrighty, all is fixed and new sim card and im activated and everything. It wants to update to 7.0 but im hesitant to do it.
Updated to 7.0 nagout. All is well. There's an additional
System update that includes some security measures.
Since updating to 7.0 went smoothly I guess I'll go ahead with the additional system update.
Glad you got it working!
Thanks! This newest security system update has me a little worried but I guess I'd the 7.0 update went fine I shouldn't be worried about it. Having done the rep bypass just has me on edge even tho the original owner is great and told tech support it was hers to clear it and let me have it and all.
I still want to look into rooting, there's just a bunch of junk on here. Even games! I don't use it for games.
hey everyone i am going absolutely nuts trying to get past this reactivation lock. i've tried absolutely everything for the past couple of days. can anyone help me? pretty sure im on latest.... i can get into youtube and all that and apex launch into the system but cannot get rid of the samsung account?
please i beg of you help me!
i just got around the FRP lock on my dads S5 (straight talk G903VL) last week and i dont even know what his gmail address is to be perfectly honest. His phone wasnt associated with any service account either, so the only commonality that google would know about is sharing our last name. Anyways, what i ended up doing is just entering my gmail acct info in the fields and it just asked me to make a new password. It seemed waaaaaay too easy to get past, so im assuming that something else had happened to cause it. I had also factory reset it several times in stock recovery and attempted to flash the G900V firmware on it (which failed over 5 times with different firmware versions)
anyways, heres a how-to with some methods worth trying
