I read this over at tmonews...
"While playing with my G today, I found a way to enter "safe mode" which will bypass the initial gmail signin and allow you to straight to the good stuff with out activating via google. You can also bypass the security drawing pattern.
1. Power off your device
2. While device is powering back on press and hold the "menu" key, keep holding it past the G1 and android splash screen.
Phone will boot all the way to the main screen and display "safe mode" in lower left corner.
I have confirmed that data is still fully operational and all of my downloaded programs."
Very interesting

How about a ROM DUMP?
I think there's already a thread or two about that.
im sorry to say this but the safe mode does not allow to bypass the initial activation screen but it sure does bypass the security screen

Correct I already posted about this. You still have to activate service with Tmobile and Google. Safe mode on the phone is just like on a regular computer help you fix issues.

It runs exactly as u would have it if it wasnt in safe mode the only difference is that u can bypass the security screen and attempt to change the security lock i'll play around wit it later on today
Well being the moder I am. I was smart enough to download that converter program floating around before reading about it and I get non stop errors on the home screen.. but for w/e reason running the phone in safe mode does not let the program load so I get no errors now but I can't unintsall it from the applications uninstall from settings.. it gives me an error when iit treys to compute the program sizes so I I can not run the phone when not in safe mode.. would be awesome if someone could help me here
try connecting it to the computer in debug mode and uninstall using adb
i have been google searching for two hours and i have yet to find how to put commands into the g1 i got the drivers and everything and its recoginzed by my comp but i dont know where i type adb shell uninstall or w/e can you direct me in the right direction?
you need to download the SDK from google. You should see some threads with the SDK or the Emulater... it is all the same. adb is in the tools thread. Ohh and you need to enter "adb -d uninstall (name of apk)"
i tried this and no luck the system still crashes... and you know i wouldnt mind loading factory defaults its just i use shazam and i already have over 150 tags that i do not want to lose and thats all i really need to back up... but i can not access the file system on the phone unless i am missing something :/ this is really killing me i hate when i cant fix something

google is your best friend. try searching for a solution. all you have to do is change the APN settings to rogers/fido and go through the gmail activation.

Bypass Google Account Just ONE CLICK
http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f75...bypass-google-account-just-one-click-1556888/
Hi
Hopefully my title/question isn't too cryptic.
I am a Note 4 user and have been flashing ROM's (thank you Dr.Ketan) and RECOVERY's for a few years now, but on a fairly basic level - so I'm no programmer.
However the issue I have today, that I cannot seem to resolve, is with my wife's Samsung J3 (J320FN) on 5.1.1 stock.
She's let our daughter play with it and our daughter has put a password on the lockscreen but can't remember what it was (or more likely won't tell us what it is).
My initial thought was to install TWRP then view data/system to delete the 3 lockscreen files. Voila! I've done this before on her previous J3 (that she destroyed when she dropped it down the toilet).
However on her new J3 I didn't have the foresight to enable USB debugging or OEM unlock so when I go to flash TWRP, it fails due to FRP.
I've researched on here / Youtube / other sites and can see various methods of getting around this (e.g. rootjunky's method) but they involve going into stock recovery and performing a factory reset / wipe.
But we don't want to wipe the data.
My wife hasn't backed up her phone via KIES and when I asked her for her password for her Samsung account or Google account to see if she had backups online, I got that blank look that a non-technical person gives you when you ask them for their password to help them out with something.
So ultimately we want to get past the lockscreen password to get into the phone, clear the lockscreen password, back up her data / images etc., and reset her Samsung account password (if she set one up) and the Google password.
Am I missing the obvious here? Can it be done? Can TWRP be installed in a manner that bypasses FRP?
Any thoughts would be most appreciated.
Thanks
Spanker333
Update: I tried flashing the stock ROM which "seemed" to work, but it didn't change anything. The phone still booted to the password screen.

Doesnt require a reset at least I don't think. I just did this on a s7 edge last week and can confirm it works. I used NFC android beam to beam the apk to the s7 edge that way it was in the internal storage of the s7

If it's just a lock screen issue try wondershare dr fone android recovery. Theres an option to bypass lock screen
Thanks for the reply droseofc
I tried your link and used Realterm (as per rootjunky instructions) but because the phone was locked, the commands brought up a locked error.
I tried Android Beam to send a file and then I tried by bluetooth (the J3 has bluetooth switched on). But nothing. I think it is because it locked at the password stage that it won't allow anything to be received that way.
I do own a copy of Dr/Fone Wondershare and I did try that before, however there are only certain phones supported for some features and the J3 isn't one of them.
It's a tough nut to crack!
I shall keep trying.
Cheers!
If you could get into the samsung account online theres a feature on samsung find my phone to unlock the phone screen. Id try resetting samsung password, usually some type of verification is only needed and most of the time a reset link sent to the email on account. What about calling the phone to bypass the lock screen, or if you flash twrp and access the files through twrp to make a backup or hook to pc and drag and copy folders wanted kept. On some phones if the password is entered wrong a certain amount of times itll prompt for a backup pin which may b easier. Although on some phones factory reset automates after a certain amount of incorrect attempts too.

Reread title and realize twrp is what ur trying to do. If usb debugging is enabled there are adb commands you can send to phone to access frp setting
---------- Post added at 08:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:23 AM ----------
Lol and reread post, no usb debugging. You could try factory recovery and pull a backup using adb. Idk if usb debugging has to be enabled for factory recovery or not. If you reflashed a stock file it shouldve completely wiped internal storage. What is the lock screen exactly
Hi
I had tried adb to try and sideload a rootjunky apk but that didn't work (probably because I didn't really know what I was doing lol).
Yes, the TWRP wouldn't install because of the FRP.
We got the Google account password (reset it) and then went to Android Device Manager > Lock and set a new password.
Just when I did that there was a small blue message under the ADM that stated that the phone was now locked BUT since it already had a password on the lock screen the new one wouldn't be needed.
I thought that ADM would set a new password lock for the phone because that's what I had seen in some Youtube videos. But apparently it will set a new password for the lock screen if the previous lock method was code or pattern - but not if there was already a password.
I tried the "calling the phone > answering > backing out of the phone app" method, but that didn't work.
I tried entering the password multiple times to get the 30 second wait, hoping that after trying this many times I would get an option of "Forgot Password" and a reset link. But nope. Not having it.
I wish I had thought of trying to get into a Samsung account but the wife seemed adamant that she hadn't set one up to start with so that wasn't at the forefront of my mind.
So I went recovery > wipe / factory reset in the hope that I could use my Dr.Phone to recover deleted files. A bit of a long shot but worth a go as that programme has done wonders in the past.
However, due to FRP when I am at the setup screen I am asked to enter the email address associated with the Google Account that was on the phone before. To be expected of course. However entering the Google account login details isn't working now so I've just been to my local Maplins (like Radio Shack I guess) and bought an OTG adaptor.
I'm now going to try and follow another one of rootjunky's videos to bypass the FRP (I tried the most recent one where he used another phones wifi to tether to but it wouldn't work).
I've not heard of the adb. Idk command you mention but I'll do a search on it to see how it is used.
What a ton of messing to get to this stage. But I like doing this stuff anyway so the challenges are welcome.
Once the OTG method works I need to root the phone to get Dr.Fone to work as from previous experience with the old J3, it needs root to work.
Having fun!
Cheers
(PS. "What is the lock screen exactly" - the screen that comes up after boot and prompts you for a password / pattern / code to get to the home screen. Not sure if that is what you meant in your question though).
Idk if u tried this method but i did successfully after a reset done the way you did and to bypass the same dilemma you describe. http://www.bane-tech.com/samsung-frp-bypass-universal-method/ the trickiest part is probably catching the phone in time after the call screen pops up after entering commands in realterm. I suggest watching the video and pausing as you go to make sure each step is done.

As for lock screen i was meaning more like was it pin, pattern, password, fingerprint etc. But since you are passed that id recommend the method that involves frp apk to phone, you may have a hard time with that without nfc, u may be able to sideload it using stock recovery and hooking to a pc, idk if the pc will recognize it as storage though. There are adb commands to send files to a phone, you may be able enter adb via recovery. Unless u have a sd slot or a usb that also has the phone mini usb on other end and u could put apk on usb and plug usb into phone and navigate to it when needed.

Once you got that all done id recommend using deft to recover files, its a linux distro, free and can be used without installing aka live. Its said to be used by law enforcement and military. Theres also a manual download which id suggest having just in case. Itd be the most thorough way of recovery but also requires a bit of focus as its advanced. Otherwise there are several android recovery programs, most working the best if phone is rooted.
ironically I received a J3 j320r that is google lock out. Basically i fix or clean/upgrade pcs/cells just by word of mouth and today got the j3. definitley can not use that root junky method, the realterm shows error on each command send. it does have a sd card slot though, but need to access dialer somehow. you figure any ways out?

I have had my J3 almost two weeks I'm almost sure it has the latest security patch and I can not get a keyboard to pop up I even went as far as Copying Pasting almost a full account info registration but was short one # to complete it it has One # A 8..well Ive exhaustied most steps I'm hoping today I can finally use MY less then two week old FRP locked J320W8 LOL..any help would be great but yes I get stuck without keyboard
Sent from my SM-G900W8 using XDA-Developers mobile app
At this same time i had a zte warp 7 that was similar in setup but didnt have samsung nemore to test but should still work. Alls you may need to do is another reset because the keyboard should pull up.
The farthest i got into the phone itself is by resetting it through recovery, and when the phone first turns on it asks you if you want to enable accessibility. This is the only time it will ask so if you miss it u have to reset again. But click on accessibility and enable talkback and switch access. With switch access it will popup a tutorial u can skip or do. But with switch access on you can swipe down and to the right which will bring up a menu, i went to switch access settings and gesture control and customized the side double tap to recent apps. With the swipe down and to right i believe i clicked talkback settings and through that i was able to get to the phone settings. You have to get to app settings i cant remember exactly how but its only possible with switch access on. Once you do you can swipe down and to right to turn off switch access which will turn itself back on if u turn screen off and back on jst n case u need it to get back as its easier with it off once u get where u need, but can only get there with it on, sometimes depending on wat u click it'll take u back to setup wizard where its locked, turn screen off back on and doubletap or swipe down right to get recent apps or settings again. In the app settings i went through each one and enabled what i thought to help such as internet browser security settings allowing access to each. If you force stop and clear data on the setupwizard (green one I think) it will reenable the swipe down bar up top. I got as far as logging in google account using a chrome browser popup by clicking one of the terms and conditions links. Got notified of log in and everything but still locked out. Wouldnt install apps no matter what i tried.

Ive actually been thinking of writing google about this whole frp thing. I dont see how they see they are empowered to lock devices out completely because of a different account being used to log in. I understand why they think they need to do it. But if the phone wasnt reported lost by the owner it should be considered that the owner is fully aware the phone is being used on a different account. Android is google but the phone purchased by the owner is not. Its up to the owner to decide if the pbones lost or stolen, not google. Sure this may have saved a few stolen phones, but every stolen pjone could be by their owners taking the responsible steps. Itd be like selling a car that is somehow linked to owner (fingerprint, insurance whatever) and dodge or gmc locking the car down because of it. Causes issues for people and not just the stolen ones. Isnt it generally wrong to punish an entire society because of a small group who break the rules? (Obamacare) There is PLENTY of data tracking and options for the owner of the phone to track their phone, lock it, wipe it and report it (also for google to know everything you do, everything) that google should not be able to or need to automatically lock a device because it was logged in with a different account UNLESS the OWNER reports it stolen. After all it is the owners phone. Unless its on contract then once its reported stolen the carrier can do what they need to for recovery. Google should release their grasp on society a little bit, stop default enable tracking our location, our voice searches, our internet searches, our lives unless we turn it on and shouldnt lock out OUR devices unless WE report it stolen. Google has got to be in with the military and i aint tryn to go conspiracy talks here but with everything that they are allowed to control and have, google earth images of things normally that would be thought questionable to see with stamps on the screen stating where the image is from (us navy etc.) I do not think the us military would allow aerial photos to be displayed by a company of their us military bsses unless it was the us military displaying them

Well I went through everything and no switch access at anytime at all..would I have better luck making my friend an "account" before getting to that sign in part I get "no keyboard in"? Or will it just tell me what its been telling me...Your app and functions or whatever have been revoked or not permittee some kinda thing like that.. I m guessing this may the very latest security patch and it shut down accessibility options keyboard options and getting past sign in options I get as far as google terms click on it and one click I have browser but when I try sign in from browser no keyboard and when I copy and paste I get sent back to main FRP screen again without my PIN I've entered being enabled as well

Its going to be near impossible to login without a keyboard popup and sorry about the switchback thing, must be a zte setting. Youve reset the phone using recovery? Power off, hold vol up, home and power until it turns on and let go should get u to recovery. Factory reset, delete cache reboot. Should take you to initial setup until you get to google login part where you will need to log in with same account used the first time phone was setup. Is the phone asking for a pin or does it say this phone has been reset in an unusual way or whatever and to log in with owner google account? If its just the pin screen and u havent reset it id maybe hold off as it may be easier to get through that than the google frp lock. If you have a mini usb to usb otg adapter you could plug adapter in phone and use a pc keyboard, or if u have a rooted phone laying around you can use usb keyboard app which when plugged in is the same as a keyboard. Its not going to help with any amount of accounts made if you have no way of typing them in at that log in screen. If you have factory reset and it does get to google login screen asking for first owner login and no keyboard popup there had to be an issue and i would download/redownload stock firmware and flash in odin because if its asking for a login it should definitely have a way fof entering that in. The only time ive had no keyboard popup is when i have set the default input method to something other then samsung keyboard like sixaxis controller which needs switched back to use keyboard

If u havent reset the phone and it is a pin and if u had enabled usb debugging prior to the phone being locked you may have options. If usb debugging is not enabled or if u did reset it options become slimmer. I have heard that not trying to login on the device for 72 hour will reset the account thing and allow a login. Not sure if it works, never had the patience.

I found by trying whatever i could theres some way of getting to the settings itself. Easiest was by getting the google app to pull up and searching settings. I did this by getting to the app settings from talkback options and finding someway of getting to its app settings and then clicking menu and going to all apps. From there you could find keyboard and make sure its allowed access to each option. If google app doesnt list settings as a option you will have to make sure in app settings you enable access to phone/storage and then it should. I clicked basically every option available in every route there was and some was dead end, some would get into areas not available before. If your issue is keyboard id try to get to its settings by trying everyroute u can and enabling access for it and every application you think may be helpful in getting where you need. I found when its locked out nearly every app has no access to any features by default so for instance keyboard may not have access to phone and wont popup when needed. You will need to show system apps once in the app settings by clicking menu up top. You may also want to go to apps that can change system settings and enable ones that appear useable. If u get there u can also force stop setupwizard and clear data which will allow bar up top to be pulled down making getting there a whole lot easier. Dont get hopes up, i did all of this and in the end gave up. Without being able to install apps its kind of hard to bypass. May have been a simple enable of whatever installs apps to allowing access but didnt find. The last thing i did try which may have worked was getting another phone and turn on hotspot and on locked phone connecting to it at wifi screen and as soon as it goes to checking connection screen turning off the hotspot and phone should go to screen asking for first and last name. U could do this with wifi just easier to turn off on hotspot. It may take a few tries and probably will. 9/10 times itll say there was an error and go back to wifi setup. I was able to enter name and setup a lock for the screen. Didnt venture further. Also when i did get to settings and went to backup and reset clicking reset didnt do anything. This is the way to reset without getting frp locked out but the option was disabled.
I bought the phone I didn't set up anything BC I was charging the phone until I would be back later on that night...babysitter as smart as she is signs in with her account BC its a brand new phone that MAKES you sign in to get the most as she put it..SMH..any who she replaced my phone I the box where I left it didnt sign out properly so my SON showed her how a Hard Reset is done!! Yeah you get the picture right ?! So that's my brand new phone with a DAMN FRP lock on it..oh yeah it dont matter if you've got the receipt or not anymore they say..???? Isn't that the whole reason behind a Sales Receipt?? Not gthe whole reason but yeah...long story short I have an Awesomely Rooted KLTE device and I was wondering where I may be able to find this app? And I do really appreciate your time and effort into helping me..when ur so stumped all you come up with is a different spot to get stumped again?

4. The Google account password is already changed so i can't use ADM.
5. There is no mobile data or wifi enabling.
Now help me out plz.
If anyone can ask for further to research i can tell.
Thanks
So you fell into the grp trap, well, I have figured out a working way to bypass grp on an alcatel fierce xl 5054n. Go to the wifi page, make sure you are connected to internet,select a secured hotspot and type in anything as a password, then highlight the password. Then swype from swype symbol to s, it will open a browser, clear everything then type access settings, enter, bang then you should be in the phones settings, select add account, select imap account, outlook.com is a good one to use, so make one of those first. Back out from there and select factory reset, now after reset you can add a google account of your choice.
Just curious
Does this still work? Or do you know any new ways

Mine does not have Swype feature. Tried every key
Help
My key board doesn't have the swipe either. I done everything I can to change the keyboard please someone help me
Finally,a thread that shows that I'm not going as crazy as I thought I was
I have the same problem with the FRP for the 5044r. I knew nothing about the phone since I have an S6 S7 and S8 plus and buying a Google pixel xl 2 today. Allmy phones are bought for the purpose of a development hobby and I try to get deals. there's a local pawn shop where i the Alcatel I paid 40 bucks not knowing anything about a phone. But I can't get by the frp. I watched five different YouTube videos with the swipe trick and I was wondering why I couldn't do it I didn't realize that on a keyboard I can't change. So small, replies are very helpful. thanks to this thread
I looked at forums on rooting the 5044r. That looks like a full military project. I'm sure someone's going to run into a simple tool that can do it off the PC in a months. And what's even more frustrating is what work last week does not necessarily word this week because of the security patch. And as much as those boxes with dongles seem to be a great technology you're better off buying it waiting for shipping than getting a cracked version it's less consuming and time. Let's keep looking for a good ideas boys it took me about three days to figure out the name so f so far I'm at Alcatel A3 series IdealXCITE (5044R). So often looking for answers to problems is getting the name of the phone correctly so the search engine can find it. I have an S8 plus which is a Snapdragon Qualcomm chip and it took me two months to find out that the "F" Exynos variant version was a no-no for any type of mods except the US and where I live which is Canada.
This works, no keyboard tricks, kind of PITA but who cares. I am too new to post links but go to youtube and use this after .com/ watch?v=iFpT66ML-uE
ps your welcome
5044c
I'm in a similar position to jthibault27, I managed to get into my Alcatel Verso 5044c through the TalkBack>Help>YouTube>Privacy exploit (which now appears closed) but adding an outlook and resetting just set my GRP/FRP to permanent "Try again in 24 hours".
got into my settings finally and factory reset my alcatel one touch phone but after rebooting it still asks for the previous google account. Also tried opening the developer options by going into phone settings and tapping the build number 6 times but unfortunately that option isnt working for me either. If anyone can help please reply. I also tried adding a imap account but it says it cant validate my server settings. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME IF POSSIBLE!!!

Hey thanks a bunch for taking the time to post the steps as such. Totally appreciate the info. Just revived a 5044G paperweight thanks to you. :good:
Hi All,
I've just received my new S8+ Coral Blue (Korean LGU Plus branded) SM-G955N that I had bought online from Kogan.com.au. I was alittle devastated to see that upon trying to log into it with my Google account, the dreaded "This device was reset. To continue, sign in with a Google Account that was previously synced on this device" error has occured.
What I've tried:
I've tried factory resetting through stock recovery, but this didnt help.
I've went ahead and downloaded the stock firmware from Sammobile (sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s8/SM-G955N/LUC/download/G955NKSU1AQDG/129793/) and flashed it through Odin. I've made sure to flash everything - the AP, BL, CP, Home CSC but the issue is still present.
Is there anyway to get rid of this damned error without rooting or voiding warranty?
Please help!
Galaxy s8+ frp bypass
try adding a network then in the pop up type any work....try holding it down then press assist when it goes to google app type test dpc bypass install it n add a work account.....reset your phone once more and your good to go
Wiz_Kidd,
Im not sure If I understood exactly what you meant. I do apologise but could you please be alittle more clearer with your instructions?.
Just for the record, I cannot get beyond the Google Sign In screen so I dont know where or how to add the network you've explained in your post.

Ok....heres a different way....when you reach at the add account pop up....type any random word and hold it down until you get another pop up then tap on assist....when the google app pop up type test dpc and download it when you complete that contact me
Do you know which software the phone is currently on? You should be able to find the version it's currently on in the recovery menu.
There's only one descent solution:
Return the phone where you bought it and:
1. ask there the log-in account
2. ask for a new phone
You'll never pass FRP (and that's a good thing, in case the phone has been stolen)

Ok Ive just tried that but when I do select the randomly typed word, 'Assist' doesnt come up. Only "CUT COPY and SELECT ALL" comes up. There is no Assist button or menu.

Ugh, is this really the only thing to do?. I dont think they would know the login account as I bought it from an online retailer shop. The box wasn't opened and all the stickers on the box were still there (until I opened the box of course).
Theres videos of people passing FRP online. I do believe there would be a way around this. But if it comes to it I can always return it.

Yeah theres a left arrow, but it simply takes me back to the previous screen.
So what are you thinking?. The phone is fake or some Samsung engineer logged into it before factory resetting it or something?
Oh and please note that I am doing all this with no simcard in the phone. Not sure if that makes a difference.

Yep I have connected to my homes wifi whilst holding down the word.
It seems that trick does not work on the newest version of android. Nor does the Realterm trick work either.

Flash the combo fw and eng boot. Should fix your problem
Honestly its quicker and easier for you to return it to Kogan ASAP and get a working replacement *fingers crossed* in your hands quicker.
If anyone is claiming to have a quick fix on YouTube I would be apprehensive and venture to guess that they're just out to make a quick buck off of some unsuspecting suckers. It seems there was some method for the s7 on MM but after some light reading I am under the impression that this method doesn't work on Android 7.0 Nougat.
There may legitimately be a fix out there somewhere but I feel like I would have seen it by now when you include other threads where this FRP question has been brought up. Again I could be wrong but I still think it's just not worth the effort tbh.
My girlfriend wanted to sell her mother's old S7 and I was tasked with wiping/resetting it. When the phone asked me for the password to the Google account, I thought "Don't try to trick a trickster, puny phone!" went straight into recovery mode and factory reset. Worked like a charm, I could create a new account, use playstore, phone ready to sell. So I went into recovery again, factory reset again and - fast forward a few days - the phone was sold and sent back, because after the 2nd reset FRP triggered and the buyer could not use it.
Main problem: The new account I created. I remember only [email protected] and the password.
Since it asked for _a_ previous owners login, I already tried gf's mother's, but that won't work.
So, is there a way to find out the test account? Otherwise, I found this method by tpierce89 to bypass FRP, but I guess at least I'd need the correct firmware to reflash, it says G930FXXS8ETC6.
Any ideas?

It's the test account it's asking for, surely you can guess what it is? test account? test phone? test something?
Always sign out and remove the google account before any modification.
I'd be suprised if the method you've linked still works but you can try.
I tried all combinations I could think of. The thing is, I put in test and something as name and used the first gmail suggested.

Will do in the future, but since I don't do these things regularly anymore, I wonder what they think of until the next time.
What puzzles me is, why could I log in after the first reset, didn't put in the password then and FRP didn't trip.
Well, it looks like we have to pay for unlocking, hope it won't be more than the price we took for the phone.

It depends on the firmware you had, some allow x amounts of factory resets before FRP kicks in. Its usually the network branded firmware which allows this.
AFAIK it was unbranded straight from amazon.de

Well my advice is to turn off FRP lock, it's a nuisance. It's not like a theif is going to bring you the phone back because they can't use it. They'll just throw it away or use for parts.

Yeah, to me it feels like you own your device another bit less.
Anyway, is there a way to get around FRP on that phone now? Or do you mean turn it off on new phones?

Sign into Google online with the same email and password your using on the device. Then device activity and notifications, then review devices. Select the phone your want to disable, then the red "remove" button. Sign out online.
Make sure sync is turned on, so the Google account can sync with the phone and turn off FRP lock.
Then after that to check. Turn phone off, press volume down+home+power to boot into download mode, read what it says about FRP lock in top left.
Then just reboot phone by pressing volume down to cancel download mode.
Other way is just remove Google account from phone before modification.
