I bought an alcatel idol 3 from somebody on eBay it is one of those phones sponsored by "cricket" company now to make a long story short when I tried to signin my Google at the setup it says ""sign in with a google account that was previously synced on this device" now I know that personally means I would need the google username and the password of the person who had the phone before I got it and I know nobody wants to give up that type of information cause I know I would not want to give out that type of information if somebody asked me which is why I have not ask the seller but my question is do any of you know a way I can bypass the Google verification on the idol 3 sponsored by the cricket company so that I would be able to use the phone
I don't know if it will work on the Cricket but I had a Asus Zenfone2 that I factory reset from recovery mode and it was asking me the same thing when I rebooted the phone. I was able to go back one or two screens, pull down the quick settings menu from the top of the screen, and selected reset which solved the problem. Not sure if you can try the same thing.
Have you solved this?

Hi I'm having a problem with Galaxy 5 i5500 i have entered a pattern [the one wich you use to see the home screen] and i forgot it. now i entered the pattern wrong too many times and my phone is locked and asks me to enter a google account. i havent set up a google account in my samsung so i can't access it. can anyone help me if they could tell me how to reset it or factory reset it? i have tried the secret codes and they don't work.
Why is it that 90% of the time, the first thing people do when they get a phone or tablet is put in a password (same with laptops and desktops). While I'm at it, why in the blue hell do people always hide the password on the unlock screen when making vids on youtube? YEAH
ANYWAY, google is your friend bro. You should be able to boot the phone in recovery mode (someone please correct me if I'm wrong on that because I'm not 100% on it) and do a factory reset. I'm not going to take the time to google it or search XDA on how to do it for you though. I learned how to walk because my parents refused to carry me around for the rest of my life....just sayin
Hello.
I have the ZTE axon A1R (not pro) and about a month ago I received a notification for a update to marshmallow 6.0 and so I went through the process, and it completely froze and would not boot.
Since then I did a factory reset however I cannot get passed the sign in screen where it asks you to sign in with the gmail that was previously associated with the phone. I have done this countless times and it simply does not accept the email even though it is correct. I have initially waited 3 days and since then tried many many times but it simply throws me back to the sign in screen.
I have tried the other option where google sends a code digit and this doesnt work wither.
I have been in contact with zte customer service but it is a complete joke. They have done absolutely nothing to help me and what I thought would take a couple of days at the most to fix, has now been over a month and is very frustrating. They keep sending me email to "wait and that they forwarded my concerns to the appropriate people to help" however this has not happened in over a month now.
what can I do? (I tried searching for this problem here on xda forums and google in general but cannot find the relevant information. Mostly what I find is stuff for the pro version of this phone)
Thank you

hi,
thanx for trying to help but sadly the above is for the Axon 7.
i am only able to find information (on xda) regarding Axon 7 and axon pro neither of which is my phone.
mine is the regular axon (A1R) http://www.gsmarena.com/zte_axon-7686.php
I should note that I am not so much interested in rooting it or anything like that.
I just want to be able to use it again under any circumstance but I simply cannot get passed the "sign in with email previously associated with this phone" because it keeps sending me back after I put in the correct information.
ZTE has been a complete failure in helping me even though it was their update that has cause me problems in the first place
Try to change the email password from another device, a pc maybe

I have done that.
no go.
and the weird thing is that, when i do type in the wrong password, it knows, and says so... but when I type in the correct one, it doesnt say anything, just jumps right back into the 'please sign in with the email associated with this password' screen.
I think it may be a issue with the update itself.
I cannot get passed the 'verify your account'
page. I tried everything, I keep putting in the
correct email and password, and even trying with the
code that google sends via text, and it always just
sends me back to the 'verify your account'.
THis is a problem with ZTE update. It fails to
recognize the previous email that was associated to
the phone.
When I power the phone while holding the 'up' button
and go into android recovery, it says:
ZTE/P897A10_ROGERS/billy
6.0.1/MMB29M/20160707.005703
So it seems that even though I have reset the phone
into factory reset, it has still applied the 6.01
update which is not what the phone came with when I
bought it (it came with 5.01)
Perhaps this is the problem and why it is not
recognizing the email associated with the phone.
I dont know why it says "ROGERS/billy"
Rogers is not the carrier that I am with and billy is
not my name.
My brother died under mysterious circumstances and I'm desperate to find out anything else I can about it. I have access to his computer, and emails. I looked online and it seems you used to be able to unlock android phones with your google password, but it seems that is only for older Android.
I also read that you can use Google Find My Device and then unlock it there by setting a new pin, but supposedly this only worked up till last year can anyone confirm?
The nuclear option is to reset the phone, and I confirmed it does have a backup. But I'm really worried that option would leave me with incomplete data. Would it have backups of all his text messages over the last year? Would I be able to set a new pin? Is there any other method besides this I could use if the above two no longer work?
Really appreciate any assistance thank you so much.
After 10 years I really should know the answer, but I don't, and the XDA search function still doesn't work for me.
My N5 has a broken SIM tray. I bought an eBay broken-screen N5 and put this motherboard into mine. It asks for a PIN, which I obviously don't have (understandable that the seller couldn't remove the account, since the screen was totalled).
I've asked the seller for the PIN, but personally I'd be reluctant in his shoes.
Is there a workaround? I've seen the YouTube video (factory reset, settings, enable bootloader unlock, etc.) but that looked as if it was on an Android 5 device and I'd be surprised if Google haven't closed the loophole.
In the absence of a PIN, any suggestions? I've seen a suggestion that the seller could remove the device from Google via his PC - would that work?
(Edit: No, the seller says that the device doesn't appear on his Google device list.)
Thank you...
Update to prevent anyone spending time trying to think of a way to help...
In fact for reasons which appear to go against everything I've read about FRP I was able to use Fastboot to boot TWRP and factory reset the device, after which I was able to install CrDroid. Maybe it's because the device was on Android 6, too old for FRP to be a problem.
Anyway, bottom line, all ok now.
Hi everyone,
First of all, sorry for my english, it's not my native language.
My brother gave me his Samsung Galaxys A50 stating that he couldn't remember his lock screen password and wanted me to fix it. Maybe that's where I ****ed up, but I went straight into recovery mode and wiped to factory reset. Note: there was no USB Debugging or OEM Unlock options active. The phone booted back up and, as usual, I had to enter my Google credentials so that it can verify my identity and let me continue with the setup process. It prompted me to 2FA and I first inserted the code I received on the phone number associated to the Goggle account. Then, it send another code on my brother secondary address mail linked to the first's one. But the email never arrived. It didn't matter how many times I tried refreshing the page or searching into every Gmail folder, the email was nowhere to been seen. And as if it wasn't enough, the primary mail address was locked because of too many tries. I tried everything, using ADB from the recovery is obviously working only for adb sideload and not for adb shell. Neither does fastboot work, as it can't even recognize the phone in Download mode because it is still locked. I even tried flashing directly TWRP with Odin but it still wouldn't work, again because of the bootloader being locked. Odin gets stuck on the NAND write part. I searched for a way to unlock the bootloader/root/enable USB debugging from adb but can't seem to find anything. I found 2 ways to bypass Google FRP but it needs adb shell or the Google keyboard. But Samsung phones have their OEM keyboard and can't, apparently, change it to Google.
Tried to get assistance from Google but, at least in my country, you need to pay to have it.
I think my only option, if doable, is to try to find a way to flash a stock rom and pray that it won't lock the phone with FRP.
Does anyone of you know of any solutions or advice I could use?
Have I to admit defeat and pay Google, hoping that the assistance is good enough to resolve the issue?
Should I just throw it into the bin and forget about it?
Thanks to everyone who helps.
Google it.
Almost everyday we get a new member asking this. While some of the inquiries might be legitimate others are not. My dead dad, brother, aunt's phone, whatever. It's a poor start entering the forum like this, in my opinion.
All the last owner needed to do was to delete their Google account from the phone and none of this would happen. Consequences.

As I said in the post, I know all the credentials used to log in the phone, I have the phone number which was linked to the Google account and the secondary mail address linked to the primary one. So, this should be enough to prove that my inquiry is legitimate.
Also, "Google it" makes me think you haven't really read what I wrote. As I said, there seems to be not a single answer.
Third and last point, how tf was I supposed to remove the Google account if the phone was locked by the forgotten pin?
Yes, this type of inquiry is surely blasonated, but insinuating that I stoled the phone without even reading the rest of what I wrote surely isn't going to help anyone, don't you think?
Having said so, if you don't have no way to help just shush.
As @blackhawk recommended it: GOOGLE FOR A SUITABLE FRP-UNLOCK TOOL. It exists for Samsung devices, too.
