Dear All,
I am new to android phone. I have SFR(ZTE) Staraddict. It is unlocked and I want to remove google account already entered in it as it is not mine. I search the internet and only find that the factory reset can only do that. Since it is unlocked I am not sure whether I can factory reset it as it will result in locking the phone (As far as I know). If there is another option or something I can do. Kindly help
Thank You

Thank you. But how can I carrear unlock it again. I don't have any device to unlock staraddict. Can any software be used for unlocking it or I need hardware of some sort.
Regards.
If it is carrier unlocked it will still be that way after a factory reset.

Power of the phone. Now press power button and volume down simultaneously. It will boot to erecovery then select the first option.
You're missing a data_hw_XX.zip package for your region. Not a big deal. It happened to me when I didn't understand how to flash software to our phone and once when updating through FirmwareFinder. Give us more details regarding your phone (which region is it) and how this happened and we'll help you.

you have many options:
factory reset again (which may not solve tthe issue)
or
unlock bootloader> install twrp> install any 3rd party keyboards zip (search in the xda, you might get any)
or
try to connect your phone to pc and check if adb is working, if yes, follow the procedure:
1. download any 3rd party keyboard app and rename it as keyboard.apk and place it inside sdktools folder
2.open command window and type the following command
Code:
adb install keyboard.apk
now reboot your phone and try , you might have your keyboard
(ask me if you have any doubt regarding this procedure)
or
you can even do a complete firmware flash of update.app through dload method (easiestt of all the above methods, but you will lose all the data inside your internal storage)
I solved, i reinstalled b131 firmware and keyboard appears, i bypassed google verification and i make the updates, now it s working good, thx all.
Can you help me to unlock bootloader without appear me FRP Lock and the Enable OEM Unlock to appear grey again?

I'm hoping someone will advise me. My Honor 8 FRD-L04 is soft bricked. I did or tried to do a factory reset, had originally TWRP, the bootloader is in Relocked status, not unlocked like I want it, I did the dload process with the only thing that would load which was the Rollback from Huawei, now I can't input information on the setup screens because all I get is the stupid Google Voice. PLEASE HELP ME.
UPDATE: Never mind I fixed it. I'm not really for sure how either but I think it mainly was just persistence.
Okay so I got this Honor 6x running on Nougat BLN-L22 (Indian version) and I forgot my PIN. Now I looked up on youtube and found a few videos where you can recover/reset your password using google account circumventing the hard reset option.
But it turns out that my lock screen doesn't have any such option.
Can someone please help? Is this bug or something?

In stock recevery is probably one choice via factory reset but u loose all data from internal storage. I don't tested with password

Because it ask for a new setup with email account, fp, pin etc aftwr reset.
Rommco05 said:
Ok so phone after reset don't remember fp, pin etc... if somebody steall your phone can easily make factory reset... I think for this is FRP lock, because if u put another sim to phone and another email adress, phone/google remember which email was before on phone and will send you sms or email with verification code on adress which was on phone before

Havent tested with any other email or sim so may be if I insert a new one, it may ask for FP or PIN.
I got S7 SM-G930L with a port Rom from S8 (https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/development/rom-s8-port-s7-s7-edge-ambasadii-t3619548). When I power on the phone I get a message: Custom binary blocked by FRP Lock.
I would like to get rid of the FRP Lock without losing my data.
I saw a video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdAhu45UPsU According to the comments 40% lost their data and 60% didn't.
Could you please advise how to make sure that my data won't be lost?

If there's an option for OEM Unlock in developer settings enable that to disable FRP
But how do I boot my phone? Now I'm getting a red message: Custom binary blocked by FRP Lock and the phone is not booting past that. It will not even let me in TWRP.

reflash the stock fw using odin
Not sure
I was said that because I'm using a port of S8 on S7, after I'll reflash stock ROM the data might be lost due to differences of memory formats.
Is it true?

If you haven't backed up your data, it will be lost.
When you get yourself back out of this mess, don't touch that OEM unlock toggle again...

Firstly I have a question regarding the OEM unlock as I just came out of the FRP Lock. Do I turn on OEM unlock or does it have to be turned off? Last time I had this FRP Lock was a year ago though did it again(the mistake with the OEM unlock) as I had forgotten it(Lots of grey hair)
Just don't know if it has to be on or off?
Secondly I have managed to come out of it(so far , hopefully) without wiping data with this guide

To unlock your device by frp lock you must flash the stock firmware when you are in bootloader mode you see custom binary blocked by frp,if you try to flash a random firmware(always of your device) the operation may not be a good end and device say an error with this:
Knumber) Snumber) Bnumber)
When you go to download the stock firmware you must see the "code" Of the firmware with write the same S or B number

Someone Help My Soul!!!
Guys, I'm scared to death on letting my phone reboot, I have been told to never let my phone restart unless my google account has been removed, can someone please explain how this FRP block really works?
Am I at risk at every given point of phone restart for real?

It stops someone stealing your phone, wiping it, installing new firmware and using it as if it was new. If you know the gmail and password you put on the phone to access the play store then you just need to re-enter it after the phone restarts. FRP will only kick in if you have flashed new firmware to the phone.
I have a new firmware flashed on the phone.
And I'm using a new gmail with is, not some one July bro used on it.
What am I to do now? I have developer settings OEM unlock toggled on already.

I'm not sure what you mean. If you have a Google account on the phone that you know the email and password to, then just reboot the phone. FRP lock will only activate if you flash new firmware to the phone without removing the Google account first.
Your device should only have 1 Google account registered on the device which let's you access Play store etc. If there is more than one, you need to delete the ones you don't know the email and password to.
Okay...
Oh, okay, now I am getting the rationale.
Albeit, when I flashed in the new custom firmware, it started give me the undo changes by restarting your phone notification, like it did the first time ever that I got the lock. I didn't click it, activated an app that discarded the notification rather.
Now it makes me doubt if I had really removed my mail before flashing the phone.

Yeah you've messed it up by not signing out of account before unistalling xposed. When you say 3 different rom's do you mean stock or custom?
Even in this state you should be able to flash a stock rom to the device with Odin and it will ask you to type the google email and password after boot.
Always turn off FRP lock before modifying the phone, it's a really annoying feature.
it is locked i try to set it up and it asks for the old acc to verify but i dont have it and a factory reset does not do anything im just locked out
