LG Stylo Cricket (H63410g) Google FRP lock bypass...stuck, requesting input - LG G Stylo Questions & Answers

Hello,
Long time lurker, first time poster, so forgive me in advance for any rules I've overlooked. I'll start by saying I am the legitimate owner of the phone. I have searched all over for information regarding FRP bypass for this particular phone and version, but have come up with nothing. I believe I found a method that gets me halfway to the goal, but I'm stuck at a particular point. Let me quickly go through what I've done so far;
1) After factory reset, from the main setup screen, go into accessibility.
2) At the bottom, click Switch Access.
3) Enable Switch Access, and then click settings in the lower right.
4)At the bottom, click Assign Keys to Actions
5) At the bottom, assign a key press to overview. I use volume down.
6) Back out to the device setup home screen.
7) Click through until you reach the network selection screen.
8) You will need to connect to a network that requires sign-in through a browser. The xfinity hotspots work the best.
9) Once connected to xfinity, the phone will auto open Chrome.
10) Use a free trial for xfinity hotspot, or log in with your comcast credentials.
11) Search google for "google maps", and find the result for google maps.
12) when you click on the google maps link, it will open a menu asking you to choose either chrome or the maps app.
13) select the maps app, and do a search for a random business that has a phone number.
14) Once the business info comes up, click call.
15) This will open the phone app. From there, go into the settings, and click on sound settings.
16) Voila! This brings you to the settings menu.
Now, my issue. It seems there is no way (or no option at least) to do a soft system restore from within the operating system. Now, I have tried disabling various apps, and stopping various proccesses in order to remove whatever process is responsible for the FRP notice, but to no avail. Ive even rooted the device and uninstalled anything I could think might be the culprit.
What do we do next folks??
Halp!
Thanks.:good:

I had this happen to me earlier and used this method. www(dot)youtube(dot)com/watch?v=b7xlXPDBxmY Just go download the file over at his blog. Put the phone in download mode and pick option #2. His phone reboots automatically in the video. Mine didn't, but I just powered it off and back on. I then had the option to skip past the the email portion.

just unplug ur router exactly when the phone says checking for updates and it'll let you skip the whole Google account thing. but you have to do it at the perfect time. took me 5 or 6 tries but it worked[emoji56]

Bumping to see if there's been another legit solution. I too have an LG G Stylo locked with the FRP. I've tried reflashing stock firmware, I've tried the Tungkick software, I've tried 6th_hokage's sofrware too, still no success.

Thanks but no, doesn't work. The overview and allow from unknown sources features have been patched. Can't use either option despite being able to backdoor into the browser, downloading the app, and even selecting it to install.

Interesting. What version numbers do you have?

Im having this problem as well, any help would be greatly appreciated

easy peasy
Look I nuked my phone I'm typing on a tripped out barcode scanner. I used lg backup to get through on my stylo. After the reset try and connect to a generic WiFi and then do a screen shot and share it via email that will get you on the web and then you should be able to search for and open up the settings app by choosing manage accounts while in the browser. Once your in settings clear all data on every app that says Google. But if you clear setup wizard you should be good. Then you should be able to restart as a new device

Try disabling the Set Up Wizard

what's the trick?

No matter what you do if you can use any method to access the settings app/page from there you can go into the apps section and just disable the setup wizard and you'll get into the phone.

Ive been working on this for hours it feels like, last time i bypassed in ten minutes (different phone). Wont allow me to disable setup wizard or google play services, what options are there? Everything i have tried they have blocked ...

[Q] Cannot download an app from Android Market!

Preface: Yes, I've read a bunch of the other threads on this forum about this problem, but I've tried all the advice I've seen and this *still* isn't working.
So, I bought the Widgetlocker Lockscreen app from Market, and paid for it on my credit card. In Market, in 'My apps', it lists Widgetlocker Lockscreen, with 'Purchased' next to it. All the other (free) apps I have successfully downloaded and installed are listed there with 'Installed' next to them.
When I touch Widgetlocker Lockscreen, I get the Personalization screen. I press the 'Purchased' button, then the 'OK' button. This should cause the app to be downloaded and installed. When I press it, a message flashes up saying 'Your item will be downloaded.' Quite soon, in the notifications area, I see a progress bar with the text 'WidgetLocker Lockscreen' below, but this progress bar quickly disappears, apparently without the download having taken place. Just before it disappears, I see the text 'Download unsuccessful' for a split second below the progress bar. The app doesn't appear to be installed and is still listed as 'Purchased' rather than 'Installed' in the 'My apps' section.
I can still install other apps OK; I tried installing some free ones and they install fine. I tried clearing Market's cache (the clear data button is greyed out). I tried unmounting/mounting the SD card. I tried rebooting the phone. This problem still occurs.
Anyone have any idea what else I could do? This is still running on the stock firmware; I haven't rooted it or anything.
UPDATE: I retried the download & install a few days later and... it just worked! Glad I didn't perform a factory reset!
The moral seems to be that sometimes, Android Market screws up on Google's end and they forbid you to download certain apps. This is sucky, but it's not going to be fixed by your doing anything on your phone.
Have you tried downloading it on 2G mode, 3G mode, and WiFi mode? Failing all three, try installing it using the Android Market website on your PC.

Like GSM (E/G) and WCDMA (3G/H) and WiFi. Sometimes I find if a download doesn't work on 3G mode, I flip it over to GSM and it works, or WiFi etc. If not, since you just bought it, can you not refund the app and try from scratch?
How do you flip over to GSM?

Heh... that just kills off any connection whatsoever.
Does nobody have any idea how to solve this (or at least diagnose why on Earth the download is failing?!) I'm going to withhold payment for this app on my credit card if Google don't sort it out.
Have you tried new market and/or factory reset?

Before any resets try this;
Go into settings, then manage applications, then find the Market app on the list. Open it, force stop it, then clear cache, then clear data.
Go back to the marketplace. You'll have to accept the terms and conditions again, but see if that helps.

I'm guessing that you've re-started your device? EDIT: just re-read post #1
If advice from @wnp_79 above doesn't work...then
factory reset? - is unfortunately the next step as the Market is linked to your Google account which can only be removed and then re-added via a factory reset.

Isn't there some log I can use to get more detailed info on why the download was unsuccessful? I can't believe they don't log it somewhere for more useful analysis!

there may well be but i don't know it...I'm afraid.
How about installing appbrain application and installing that and then try downloading the problem application through that...all though I suspect that it will use the same mechanism....but worth a try.
Google have come back to me and told me to do a factory reset as well. This is infuriating, and I really don't want to do it because of a bug in ONE application - Google Market. It's not like there's widespread filesystem corruption or something, which in my mind would justify a factory reset.
I did some more investigation and installed (successfully! other apps install successfully!) the 'aLogcat' app. This gave me quite a bit of useful debug info when I tried to install Widgetlocker Lockscreen. I have the output saved to my SD card and will paste here when I get home from work, but basically it's very similar to the output listed here:
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Android%20Market/thread?tid=0ffa4f4e6cedcfb8&hl=en
Seems like I'm not the only one having this problem. That was posted in 2010. Now seriously guys, are we still talking about a factory reset for a somewhat common bug in Android Market that has been known about for quite some time? I want to try and figure out what's going wrong here and FIX it instead. It looks like h ttps://android.clients.google.com/market/download/... is returning a 403 forbidden, which causes the main Android UI to display 'download unsuccessful'. Why is the download being forbidden?

For the Market app, the 'clear data' button is greyed out. It's always been greyed out whenever I've looked there.

try what @wnp_79 suggested in his original post, force close the application then you should be able to clear data and cache (at least that what I can do).

I think there's a problem market side so sit tight for now and don't fiddle. I also have a problem with an app (Titanium Back Up) refusing to update.
Try restart your phone. Maybe, that you have new market update waiting for installation.

I'm pretty sure that the stock launcher is opening, so here's a solution.
1.) Go to market.android.com
2.) Search for Go Launcher
3.) Copy the Link in your address bar
4.) Paste link in an email and send it to YOURSELF
5.) Use the initial set up screen to set up an email account.
6.) Wait for a notification to pop up saying that you have received emails.
7.) Click notifications (should open email)
8.) Click on the email you sent to yourself
9.) Click on the link, and option to go to market should pop up. So click that.
10.) Download the launcher from the link.
11.) Hit the home button after it installs.
12.) You should be taken to your homescreen!!
You can't skip setting up a Google account... go ahead and make one, it's quick and easy. If you mean the "setup accounts" dialogue that comes up after you select a google acount... that should not be force closing.
If it's the setup accounts dialog that comes up then I can walk you through an external factory reset, and, if that doesn't work, look at the noob thread for how to flash an fxz.

@cogeary, The same exact thing happened to me. The problem was that I did a factory reset and I froze the stock launcher. So when I started up, I couldn't do anything because I didn't have a working launcher. So what I ended up doing was sending a link to the market so myself, than using that to download GO Launcher.

[Q] Android Twitter notifications still don't work.

Ever since I switched back to my Android phone, Push notifications for mentions never worked on my account anymore. Every time I go to enable it and push back, then go back to see if its still enabled, it automatically disables itself. Now I thought to my self that the app could be just broken, but I have 2 Twitter accounts, and my secondary account I use gets notifications just fine, buy my main one doesn't want to keep them enabled. So I thought it was my phone so I tried logging in on another Android device I have, same problem. Now with the new update that they released today, me thinking it would fix the problem, I go to turn on notifications, then I get "Updating Notification Settings" ......... "There was a problem updating notification setting". I have tried Googling this but can't find a fix anywhere. Any ideas?

Having the exact same problem.. tried deleting the data, removing the account. Uninstalling and reinstalling the app.. try checking if just 'Tweets' works.. that one works for me. But I don't want that.. lol
I'm having the same issue, I even tried resetting my phone from scratch with no data whatsoever, I even formatted it and wiped everything, I'm using CM9 on a Samsung Galaxy S2
RUnning the new v3.2.0, trying to set notification preferences, when I exit back to acct prefs, I get a toast saying "There was a problem updating notification settings." Is that what you're seeing as well?

Yeah i guess its not just me, but im wondering why it does that for specific accounts? Like my second Twitter account works fine. I downloaded the Twitter 3.0 apk from 4shared, and that worked fine. I guess They keep breaking their own app.
3.0 works for you? Sweet. I'm gonna give it a go

This happens when you have multiple mobile (android and ios) devices all signed in to one twitter account. Somewhere along the line, in between flashing ROMs with different build id's and or having two devices will confuse Twitter in a sense, so sign out and uninstall twitter from the other devices, go the desktop twitter site, and in settings, revoke twitter permissions you've granted and sign back in on your device. Everything will work fine. You'll be surprised that every twitter app you've ever tried is still in there, with access. Kill em' all....
Using the browser this link http://mobile.twitter.com/settings/change_ui will take you to the desktop version. Its a pain otherwise.
Settings>Apps you'll see it from there..

[Q] Unable to Unlock (TF700T)

Hi All,
I've been doing a lot of searching and reading on the forums but haven't found an solution to my problem.
I've been tgrying to unlock the boot-loader of my tablet for days. I downloaded and installed v8 of the
ASUS unlock tool.
Everytime I try to use it, I get to the "Google Account Verification" step it says:
"Your password is not valid"​
I know I've entered the correct password. I've actually signed out of my google accounts from the tablet
and then signed back in just to make sure I wasn't fat-fingering it over and over.
Here're the details:
ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T
Android Version 4.2.1
Kernel Version 3.1.10-gb1a9af5
Build number: JOP40D.US_epad-10.6.1.14.10.20130801​
As far as I know, the tablet is absolutely stock (I bought it on e-bay)
If someone could point me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it.
I want to unlock, the install TWRP via fast-boot on the way to trying a couple of custom roms.
My search-foo is relatively weak so if I've missed an obvious thread, please forgive me.
atTHANKSvance!

You don't have 2-step verification activ on your Google account, do you?
If yes, you need to disable it for this procedure.

You have almost certainly diagnosed my problem....
It's late here, but I'll turn off 2-factor authentication and try again in the morning.
I'll post again with my results.
That was my problem..
I didn't actually need to deactivate 2-step authentication. Google will generate an application specific password for those programs that can't handle the 2 step process. I generated one for the unlock tool and it unlocked on the first try.
That was it...
Instead of deactivating 2-step auth, I generated a new app specfic password for the unlock tool. I put it in and it worked the first time.
Thanks again!!

Here's another solution: (I couldn't get any of the above solutions to work)
After 20 minutes thrashing around in the jungle of Google settings I discovered that in the Google "Less secure apps" page of the account settings it says "Some apps and devices use less secure sign-in technology, which makes your account more vulnerable. You can turn off access for these apps, which we recommend, or turn on access if you want to use them despite the risks." So I changed the "Access for less secure apps" on that page to "Turn on" and - bingo ! - the Unlock app on my Asus tf700t accepted the Google account password that it had previously been rejecting and went on to unlock the tablet. Then I went back to the "Less secure apps" page of the account settings and changed it back to "Turn off", i.e. I restored it to the more secure setting.

Thanks for the assistance.

I've been trying to unlock mine for over 2 years. V7 unlock installed, removed account, ran unlock tool, VIOLA! Success!
Now, what seems to be the best ROM to use is what I have to figure out next...... is there a solid KK or Lollipop ROM?

Annoying "no location" popup on boot

Hello everyone.
I decided to post this question here instead of my specific device's forum because I believe it is an issue of android itself, not my phone.
Since a couple of days ago, there is an annoying popup that appears on every boot, right after I unlock for the first time. The message reads:
No location access
Device location for all apps is
turned off, and you might not be
able to locate your device if it's
lost.
Yes, I'm aware of that, since I keep my location off for privacy and battery concerns, and that popup annoys me because it's an extra step for me to take. I suspect it's generated by Google Play Services, but I can't be sure.
Has anyone else seen it? Any ideas to disable it?

I have. And you're right. Its generated by Google Play Services. I got rid of it by disabling a bunch of Google Play Service's services

Thank you very much for your confirmation.
Do you remember by any chance which services did you disable to get rid of the popup? I'm betting doing that will screw up google maps and possibly some other gapps, but I'm willing to do it because that popup is sooo annoying.
Thanks.

Disabling them will cripple the device's location services. Though you'll probably still be able to get your location info by using the GPS only.
Here are the services I disabled
com.google.android.gms/com.google.android.gms.locationsharing.service.LocationSharingSettingInjectorService
com.google.android.gms/com.google.android.gms.nearby.connection.service.NearbyConnectionsAsyncService
com.google.android.gms/com.google.android.gms.clearcut.service.ClearcutLoggerService
com.google.android.gms/com.google.android.gms.clearcut.service.PlayLogBrokerService
com.google.android.gms/com.google.android.gms.common.stats.GmsCoreStatsService
com.google.android.gms/com.google.android.location.fused.FusedLocationService
com.google.android.gms/com.google.android.location.internal.PendingIntentCallbackService
com.google.android.gms/com.google.android.location.geocode.GeocodeService
com.google.android.gms/com.google.android.location.network.NetworkLocationService
com.google.android.gms/com.google.android.location.internal.GoogleLocationManagerService
com.google.android.gms/com.google.android.location.geofencer.service.GeofenceProviderService
com.google.android.gms/com.google.android.location.internal.server.GoogleLocationService
com.google.android.gms/com.google.android.location.reporting.service.LocationHistoryInjectorService
com.google.android.gms/com.google.android.location.reporting.service.DispatchingService
com.google.android.gms/com.google.android.gms.mdm.services.NetworkQualityAndroidService
Finding them all might be a bit tedious so here's a backup you can restore using DisableService from the Playstore
Woah, that's mighty cool of you. Thanks! I appreciate it.

That's weird.
Did you go about disabling them manually? Or by using the DisableService backup?

Using backup. I double-checked and they are disabled
On my Note 4 I noticed an auto update a few days ago which I couldn't stop.
Today, my Skype auto logged out and when I tried to log in I couldn't. I entered my password 4 times and I couldn't log in. I tried login into my PC and it was fine so it wasn't a problem with my password.
So I restarted my note 4 and got this "No location access" pop-up. However I was able to login to Skype.
Are these two things connected? It seems weird. And the pop-up is blatantly scaremongering saying if location is disabled the phone cannot be tracked if it's lost.. yeah Google, on yer bike.

Okay. Try restoring this backup instead. I'm 100% sure it'll work because thats my current config and I'm pop up free. It seems to have broken the smart lock feature though. But if you don't mind/use that then you should be fine.

I really don't know. Maybe it was just a minor glitch/bug in the app. It does seem weird though. But if you're interested in getting rid of the pop up then check the post above.
I just disabled preference service. And the popup is gone.

Running the following on boot works for me too. Any idea what else it disables?
Code:
pm disable com.google.android.gms/com.google.android.location.util.PreferenceService;
