I have moto x play. The phone I reset to factory settings. Now it seeks the google account which was registered with it. I forget those credentials. Trying to use new gmail, but it does not accept new mail. I tried to on usb debugging, by using Japanese key board trick. But tapping on Build Number does not open Developer Option. Please help me I am helpless.
Reboot your device to bootloader and use my Script (you can find it Here)

I have a Samsung Galaxy 3 (i5801) which got in the hands of a kid and he failed at the pattern lock too many times so now its locked at the enter Google account information screen. And I can't seem to get past it as I don't know which account was used to activate this phone (a gift from someone, who had activated it but can't seem to remember his password)
Now before I do a hard reset, I really need to backup and save my SMS and contacts at least, to PC, so I can later restore them somehow. Can someone tell me my options? I don't have the Micro-usb cable yet, but I will get it today and start experimenting. But I was wondering if the /data/data/com.android..... folder is even accessible when connected with USB? I am hoping that I will be able to set USB debugging to on by calling on the phone and accessing the main menu from there.
I have both Win XP and Ubuntu, so any solution based on either platform will be appreciated.
Well, just flash g3mod kernel, and your phone will go to usb debugging mode on connecting to USB...
even better option you want to try is use the multiboot feature...so you can boot into another ROM, have your contacts and messages there...and then backup using any possible method
Background info: I woke up this morning and found my phone locked(someone must have been trying to peak at my phone...), telling me to unlock the phone by google account, here is what it writes:
-------------------------------------------------
Too many pattern attempts
To unlock, sign in with your Google account
Username(email)___
Password_________
-------------------------------------------------
After I entered my username and password, it shows "checking..." and said the username or password is invalaid (of course i entered the correct one!!! Is that a bug??), so i cant unlock and use my phone...
WHAT CAN I DO TO UNLOCK IT???
(other than reseting it?? I dont want to do all the restore again...)
p.s.it is not connected to the internet and I am on android 4.1.1 AOKP, and it is rooted of course
p.p.s. I swear i own this phone
If its not connected to internet, you cannot unlock it using your email.
You can use adb to unlock it but it will require 'usb debugging'.If its on try it, else you'll have to do a full wipe.

I remember i didnt on usb debug, does clicking "adb daemon "in the boot menu works as if usb debugging is enabled?
(the phone is rooted, no other ways? (Like making a zip to flash and change some files, to at least turn the wifi on???))
(i guess what the adb does here is to change some values(which must be stored somewhere in the filesystem?) , so really no other way?)
try this in adb
adb shell rm /data/system/gesture.key
Or use aroma file manager

I have the following problem. My Nexus 4's touch is broken, it can show stuff though. I need to run an app (the battle.net authenticator, otherwise I can't log in) through access from my PC, but there are some problems. It is not rooted, its bootleader is locked and everything is stock. I do have USB debugging enabled though. Also I can't do adb commands because this is a new PC and I haven't authorised it (it shows up as unauthorised on adb devices).
After a long series of experiments and a lot of googling, I found a combination of 2 programs ([email protected] and Android Control) to do what I want, and do some stuff when on Recovery Mode to activate the adb thing through cmd (most of those in this site), but my PC can't seem to even see that a device is connected when I am in Recovery Mode. I have tried reinstalling the drivers a couple of times but nothing seems to work.
Does anyone have any ideas?

As far as connecting to the PC is concerned have you tried another PC or USB cable? And since that's a battle.net authenticator you can contact their support, either via web ticket or phone (if you live in the supported countries) and after they confirm it's really yours account, they'll remove the authenticator for you.

I can see the phone just fine everywhere else, just not in recovery, so no I didn't try that. And I have tried using their support but I was in a pretty special situation for some reason and they couldn't help, but I fixed my problem. I had saved my restoration code for my authenticator ages ago and I didn't remember. Thanks for trying to help out though
Hi
I have a Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910G) and don’t normally muck around with the system. I have limited experience with Android.
My phone is locked (with important data stored in it)– a couple of days ago (presumably after a system upgrade) it suddenly would not recognise my fingerprint nor backup password.
I tried unlocking the phone using Android Device Manager but although I could get my phone to ring or display text, I could not change the password after locking the phone.
I called Google who said that Android Device Manager only works on earlier Android Versions - ?4 and below and most likely my phone would be running Marshmellow.
I called Samsung who said my only option is to restore to factory settings.
I wanted to use ADB
(to enter: adb shell
cd data/system
su
rm *.key) and downloaded it and tried to use it from the c:\ prompt but I don’t have USB debugging enabled. No device was recognised when running ADB.
I had not registered for a Samsung account so I could not use Find My Mobile.
I tried to apply an update via external storage in recovery mode (I downloaded files such as Lockscreen_Security_bypassV1.1.zip or Pattern-Password-disable.zip) but unfortunately when I tried to apply them, it came up with E:footer is wrong, E: signature verification is required.
(I also tried “Android Multi Tools”).
I do not have CMN recovery loaded nor Aroma+File+Manager
My question is: should I try and use Odin (have downloaded odin3_v3.11.2.zip) and TWRP to try and enable USB debugging or try to disable footer/signature verification??
Any other suggestions to try and unlock my phone???
At the minimum this has been an education!
Thank you for your help!
OK, this is driving me nuts! The phone has been restored to stock (Android Version 8.0.0) and has nothing on it from the Play Store, just the stock Samsung apps - trying to get ADB to work without any joy, as want Fluid NG on it........
It did once offer the options (weird?), but I got the Allow USB Debugging popup with the RSA Key, but also the error 'Because an app is obscuring a permission request, Settings can't verify your response' error - Went to the 'Apps that can appear on top' section (assume this is the same as 'Draw over other apps?), and disabled everything in the list - still the same error!
Now the only options I get when connecting are:
Transfer Files
Transfer Images
MIDI Device
Charge this Phone
So far I've.......
Enabled Dev mode
Enabled USB debugging
Disabled Verify Apps via USB
Installed Samsung Drivers
Installed ADB Fastboot
Disabled all 'Draw over other apps' apps in the Apps list.
Tried another laptop
Tried another USB cable
It shouldn't be this difficult, I know!!
