Dear All,
I am new user of Android, purchased Atrix-2 unlocked for other networks.
My problem is I am not able to go inside the phone after "Setup Accounts" section.
I tried putting T-mobile sim, and I can received the calls however I am not able to do anything other than that
The phone each time ask me to "setup account"; I really dont want to setup the account and skip it.
There is option to skip, but whenever I do that I get error saying process.com.motorola.setup has stopped unexpectedly. please try again
Can you please help me!!!
I am not able to use my phone, not able to make any calls
Thank you v much
Regards
Try to clean the configs using the recovery menu and set up again.

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.
I am mad as hell.
I wanted to enable Google Now but in Google Settings I receive the message "Google Now requires location services which are not available".
Googled, found several "hacks", great. I tried the one where you unistall updates/disable Google Play services, etc... and I get the message to activate Google Now, but when I choose so and login with my email I get "This account is not eligible to use google now".
I tried this with 2 different gmail accounts, always get the same message. There are no info on Google about this problem.
Anyone has any idea how to enable google now? I need it, I love it, and I think I am going to break my nexus 5 if I can't have it.
By the way, I am on the latest developer L build (didn't work on 4.4.4 too, I kinda updated only because of the hope that it may work on L).
Also, on my Nexus 7 (2012) google now works great although I am using the same gmail account.
Any help is appreciated!
Uhhhhh.......
Turn on location? Why don't you try that and report back.

Google Location services are not available in all countries (which is fine) but Google Now shouldn't explicitly need location services. Location services are not available in my country and Google Now still works with no problems on my Nexus 5 and worked on my Nexus 7 (2013) before I updated to the L Developer preview (using the Play Services - Uninstall updates trick) and still shows me location weather information, appointments, news updates, delivery updates, time to work.home, time to get to the location of my next appointment, etc... all without being able to enable location services. I don't understand why Google would limit their service when it clearly works with no problem but has no problems pushing out beta apps to everyone which clearly have issues (new hangouts desktop app).
The Play Services trick did not work on 5.0 for me either. If I do find a way around it I'll let you know.
UPDATE: Managed to get it working with the following steps:
1. Logged out of Google search app
2. Uninstall Play Services updates
3. Connect to a Free UK VPN (I used this: http://www.bestukvpn.com/)
4. Ask Google to remind you of something and select the opt in to Google Now option
5. Go through the steps to enable Google now.
6. When you get the "This account is not eligible to use Google now" click on search bar and search for anything
7. Open the hamburger menu while in search (click on the menu icon or slide from the left)
8. You will notice that you are not signed in. Select sign in and select your account.
9. Viola you will get the opt in to Google now option again and you should then have Google Now
That's what worked for me. Ask Google to remind you of something to make sure its working. Hope this helps .

Did you try creating a reminder using Google Now after the 8th step. Make sure you are still connected to the VPN. You have to open chrome after connecting to the VPN to verify the connection. A simple search should bring up a window to accept the VPN terms and conditions.

I am connected to the VPN, I can confirm by searching for my IP, it says I got a London IP.
After the 8th step when I try to create a reminder (remind me to thank johnmall1441) nothing happens... in fact, the program closes itself like it was killed. I don't have another device currently to record the screen and show what I am doing and what happens...

Location Services
Hi all, this morning I went into Google Search settings and I could finally enable Google Location Services. This is what was blocking Google Now. With it enabled you shouldn't have to jump through hoops to opt-in. Try checking your location services settings in the Google Search app . They may have enabled it for a number of new countries.
Quick Tip: If the opt-in screen doesn't show up automatically, sign-out and sign-in in the Google Search app. Hope this helps.
Still not eligible ?
Tried v p ns and airplane mode

The only option is to disable play service and by doing so it removes the google account altogether in official lollipop build.
couldnt get google now in lollipop!!!!
Cant get google now by applying any of the fixes above!!!!!!!common you can do better than this????
the above solution does not work. I performed a full wipe and install of latest lollipop release. I have no uninstall updates button. Only "Force Stop" and "Disable" both greyed out. Not rooted.
hopefully a solution will appear soon.
Finally Got Google Now Working in Lollipop_Nexus 4
1. Switch Off the Phone
2. Remove sim card
3. Do a Hard Reset
4. Skip Wifi Settings and everything else
5. Once skipped all the settings steps, deactivate Location
6. Activate Wifi
7. Use VPN (bestukvpn Posted by jonmall1441)
8. Activate google now and add your google account
9. Enjoy!!!!!!!

- If your phone is on, turn it off.
- Press and hold the Volume Down button and the Power button at the same time until the device turns on. You'll see the word "Start" with an arrow around it.
- Press the Volume Down button twice to highlight "Recovery mode."
- Press the Power button to restart into Recovery mode. You'll see an image of an Android robot with a red exclamation mark and the words "No command."
- While holding down the Power button, press the Volume Up button.
- Use the volume buttons to scroll to "wipe data/factory reset" and press the Power button to select it.
- Scroll down to "Yes - erase all user data" and press the Power button to select it.
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.

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 ...

Hello,
We have a Choose "Your Own Device" policy in our company where users can purchase many devices from a catalogue (Android and iOS).
When employees leave the company, they return the device to IT where it is wiped and handed to the next user if device still has warranty.
Reason I mention that is because I don't want comments like "is it stolen" etc...
How to bypass the Google Account protection when doing a factory reset?
We don't own an OTG cable.
I have tried with the method using SideSync to open Google Chrome and download the APK that opens Settings.
Then, via the Samsung Apps installed a File Explorer to install the APK which actually brings me to settings where I can do a factory reset.
However, that doesn't work. I still get the Google protection after the reset.
Not even sure if it will work with an OTG cable as it would actually do the same thing.
Did anyone successfully bypass this on a Samsung?
OK, I just managed to bypass this freaking FRP!
Just a combination of different methods I've found.
Phone was:
Samsung Galasy S3 (SM-J320F)
Android 5.1.1
Not sure if this will work in Marshmallow.
What I did:
Downloaded and installed Samsung SideSync on my PC and started it
Start device until you see the Google Account Protection (or whatever you call it)
Connect phone via USB to PC which shows a small popup menu on the phone
From that menu, open Chrome
Browse to: http://rootjunkysdl.com/files/?dir=Apps
Download the file: com.sika524.android.quickshortcut.apk
6a. This is the Quick Shortcut Maker
Hit the back button until you see the first page in Chrome and hit OK to start the Samsung Apps
7a. If you closed Chrome, just unplug the USB cable and connect phone again
In Samsung Apps search for ES File Explorer and install it (or any other File Browser)
8a. You will be prompted to login with your Samsung Account to be able to install the app, just do it
Open ES File Explorer and install the APK that you've downloaded before (it's in the Downloads folder)
Open Quick Shortcut Maker and wait for all apps to populate
Scroll down and tap on "Google Account Manager" to expand it
Scroll down until you see the one with the description "Type Email and Password"
12a. For some reason I had 2 entries saying "Type Email and Password". I just selected the first one.
Tap "Try"
Go the menu in the right top corner and select "Browser sign-in"
Login with your own Google Account
Hit the "Back" button until you are at the first screen again or at least until the Wi-Fi selection
Now follow the wizard, you have successfully added your own account and the other one is forgotten

Did anyone successfully bypass this on a Samsung?[thankz its working in my O+]

OK, I just managed to bypass this freaking FRP!
Just a combination of different methods I've found.
Phone was:
Samsung Galasy S3 (SM-J320F)
Android 5.1.1
Not sure if this will work in Marshmallow.
What I did:
Downloaded and installed Samsung SideSync on my PC and started it
Start device until you see the Google Account Protection (or whatever you call it)
Connect phone via USB to PC which shows a small popup menu on the phone
From that menu, open Chrome
Browse to: http://rootjunkysdl.com/files/?dir=Apps
Download the file: com.sika524.android.quickshortcut.apk
6a. This is the Quick Shortcut Maker
Hit the back button until you see the first page in Chrome and hit OK to start the Samsung Apps
7a. If you closed Chrome, just unplug the USB cable and connect phone again
In Samsung Apps search for ES File Explorer and install it (or any other File Browser)
8a. You will be prompted to login with your Samsung Account to be able to install the app, just do it
Open ES File Explorer and install the APK that you've downloaded before (it's in the Downloads folder)
Open Quick Shortcut Maker and wait for all apps to populate
Scroll down and tap on "Google Account Manager" to expand it
Scroll down until you see the one with the description "Type Email and Password"
12a. For some reason I had 2 entries saying "Type Email and Password". I just selected the first one.
Tap "Try"
Go the menu in the right top corner and select "Browser sign-in"
Login with your own Google Account
Hit the "Back" button until you are at the first screen again or at least until the Wi-Fi selection
Now follow the wizard, you have successfully added your own account and the other one is forgotten

There is no way that this method could work on the SM-J327T1. This phone did not come out until 2016 and the link you provided show that any firmware before 12/01/2015?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy#Samsung_Galaxy_J
On the add wifi menu, just input any letter then select it all or long press until context menu will pop out. select google assist. type settings or use google speech to search for settings. select the settings then go to accounts, add samsung account. either log in existing account of create new account. follow on screen instructions and required fields to be issued. when done, restart your phone. Factory protection should be skipped and "account added" message will appear. follow final procedure for setting up your phone.

Hello,
We have a Choose "Your Own Device" policy in our company where users can purchase many devices from a catalogue (Android and iOS).
When employees leave the company, they return the device to IT where it is wiped and handed to the next user if device still has warranty.
Reason I mention that is because I don't want comments like "is it stolen" etc...
How to bypass the Google Account protection when doing a factory reset?
We don't own an OTG cable.
I have tried with the method using SideSync to open Google Chrome and download the APK that opens Settings.
Then, via the Samsung Apps installed a File Explorer to install the APK which actually brings me to settings where I can do a factory reset.
However, that doesn't work. I still get the Google protection after the reset.
Not even sure if it will work with an OTG cable as it would actually do the same thing.

Does this work for S8
I found my way passed this by dialing an emergency number from the emergency call dialer.
After dialing 112 swiping left gives you access to other features one of which is email.
Once you are into email messaging you can set up a legit email account and send an email.
From the email composition form you can attach things like documents and more importantly your current location to the email.
Once you attach your location you are prompted to confirm all of the location permission and taken to the gps menu and towards the bottom you will find a button for Google Location History.
Clicking this button brings you to an empty page with a 3 dot menu at the top right and from there you can view/manage location history, which opens your access to google maps.
From google maps go ahead and type in any destination as if you're navigating in your car , get directions and begin your journey.
Once you are enroute to your chosen destination hit the microphone at the top right and say "open google". This brings up the Google Search APP which allows access to settings -> security -> unknown sources -> back to Google Search App -> type in Chrome -> open browser -> search for "rootjunkysdl frp" -> install GoogleAccountManager6,apk -> install and open rootjunkysfrpbypass.apk -> 3 dot menu top right -> sign in with browser -> back to settings -> backup and reset -> set backup account -> back to setupWizard or reboot phone -> walk through setupwizard and account added / profit.

I have a Samsung s22 Ultra device, my husband and I were trying out the parental control feature.
Even after stopping supervision, it's impossible to uninstall the parental control app and remove it's restrictions from my phone. This prevents me from using Developer Options/usb debugging, uninstalling Family Link as well as many restrictions. I cannot change my google email. (It won't allow additional email or removals)
Here are some things I tried:
1.. I've already tried age verification
Already stopped the supervision on my friend's phone, completely removed from family group
Tried clearing cache and storage of all Google apps
Removed myself from the family through Play Store
Tried resetting all settings, but factory reset is disabled
Tried disabling parental control as a device admin, it is greyed out
Unable to boot into safe mode
Can't enable developer mode (so no ADB)
Security certificate section is disabled
Deleting my Google account is not at all an option, it's my primary account
Tried changing the password of my Google account, and tried to force log out and reset using the Find My Device feature. That Didn't work( it says no device registered)
Tried transferring the app(family link) to the SD card, and removing the SD card. Didn't help, it still has restrictions
unable to reset the phone through Samsung find my device and through Google find my phone( both say my phone is not registered)
on my hubby's phone it says open parental control (by going to Google In settings) and set up again to start supervision.
On his phone shows no child, on my phone shows monitoring active
Tried meddling with my birthday in my google account, at some point it asked me to verify my age through card, which I did. And the age got verified.
Tried to install beta version of family link,by signing up through Google Play Store, hopping the beta has resolved the issue, but it didn't help
Tried restarting my phone several times, but no avail
Tried hard resetting(through recovery menu), the phone won’t go into recovery, it vibrates at point where it Was supposed to go into recovery menu, and boots normally and phone turns on
My problem is my phone has become laggy and I'm not able to add Google accounts.unable to reset my phone. Please help in removing malware of an app Family Link. I know this may not be the appropriate place to ask, but I am desperate. Thanks for any help.
I have a similar issue with a firneds tablet. What a mess!
You can disable it with ADB. Or even uninstall if you want.
Code:
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.apps.kids.familylink
Edit: just read u cant enable dev options weird.

First of all, why did you add yourself as a child requiring supervision?
Anyways, Family Link app is just an interface to change settings and permissions. Switching to beta version or doing other things with the app will not make any difference. The problem is with the account settings. Your Google account is still being supervised. Until this restriction is removed, you won't be able to add other accounts or factory reset the device. Ideally, once you stop supervision, these restrictions must go away.
Here's what you can try:
1. Join the family group again.
2. Ask the 'parent' to remove your account from supervision. My guess is you have stopped supervision from the child account. So try stopping it using the parent account.

Did you connect it to your PC when going into recovery menu?
I tried this a lot of times on my son's android device. This is the one thing I did especially I messed up the settings on my Family Link.
