Just purchased samsung galaxy tab A 10.1.
Brand new open box. I am unable to set it up.
When I try to sign in to Google account. I get message to use account previously synced to device.
I tried a factory reset and wiped cash .and get message and failed attempt to reset device was made please sign in with the owners account.
I can't see how to hard reset in recovery.
Would Odin flash fix this
Any ideas how to fix this problem
Thank you

Hi Guys, Today I purchased a used Samsung G900F. Before paying, I checked everything, phone is basically brand new, used 2 hours. Unsurprisingly before handing me the phone, the seller factory reset, so he could erase his data. Now, I came home and I'm stuck on the Samsung Account login screen and it's not giving me any option to skip. It's a UAE version Note3, so I know it's not region locked. I called the seller and he says he does not remember the password. I've used a lot of Android phones and this is new to me. I also factory reset and wipe cache the phone, but no luck!
Also Try That Way
Goto accessibility option which is available on the first screen where you select language..then goto Text to speech option..then from the settings goto Install voice data and try to download any language..It will ask you to enter samsung account details...Enter your own samsung account details..once the download is complete..go back to screen where it was showing abnormal factory reset adn then enter your samsung account..
But No Luck :/
it's the reactivation lock same as activation lock feature of ios. you cant use the phone unless you enter the samsung account of seller
Hello guys,
I just got an S5 from a collegue at work (he got an S7 so he selled to me very cheap) and the problem is that he wanted to give his phone to his girlfriend but after he made a reset he couldn't pass through the samsung account screen and now when i tried to pass the setup and arrive at the samsung account screen i asked him to login with his account and it says in progress after couple of seconds it says Signing in (so it recognize the account) but after that it says processing failed.And he told me that he had problems with it after the last OTA update.The phone isn't rooted.What should i do ? I have knowledge about flashing i just want to know if there is some special firmware to flash or i can go with trying to root it then install CWM and the flash CM through CWM? Thank you very much.

Download stock rom of your model from sammobile or using samfirm tool
And flash it via odin
And clear cache and data in stock recovery
And complete the startup screen

Thank you for the post, but i have resolved this way:
> Entered recovery , wipe data and cache.
> Flashed the earliest version of lollipop.
> Immediately after the flash is done i rebooted into recovery and did another wipe data and cache.
> Clicked on accessibility,vision,text-to-speech options, on preferred i selected Google Text-To-Speech ,clicked on the settings button , Install voice data , in upper right corner clicked on the three dots,open source licenses, select some random text and clicked on magnifer (search).It will ask for gmail enter your gmail.
>After the browser shows up type inside the search Lollipop Android , open the website from android , (IMPORTANT TO OPEN WITH NORMAL BROWSER) , in the upper right corner click on the dots, settings , manage accounts and a window shows up to sign in with your Samsung Account,you login in with your Samsung Account.
>After signed in press the back button untill you get back to the initial page of setup.
> Proceed with the setup.
> It will now ask you again to login with your Samsung Account due to abnormal reset you must login with the samsung account you have logged in previously.
> DONE !

Abnormal Factory Reset Problem Samsung Galaxy S5 [SOLVED]
Solved
hello guys ,
ii have this s7 edge is not mine , my little cousin owns it , and he has given his google account to a friend after some time the phone freezed and started doing a factory reset on it s own and it failed . i wiped the cache and fr it again it went OK but after it was done a massage saying that a unauthorized fr was attempted now when i try to login in to the google account it says "unable to sign in to device do to a unknown error "
from what i understand it is some sort of Samsung protection system or smth like this and that i need to login with the original account or take it to Samsung , unfortunately the account was stolen and i have no means of recovering it .
Any ideas?
just create a mew google account and you're good to go. he probably wiped it remotely.
what a great idea to give someone a login anf password...
Hello all.
I recently received a used at&t Galaxy S7 (variant SM-G935A) that hadn't been used in over a year, and was looking forward to using it, when I encountered this message:
"This device was reset, To continue, sign in with a google account that was previously synced on this device"
I tried numerous sign in's all to no avail, and the previous owner doesn't even remember the password, (Probably why I was given this phone) so now I am stuck with a beautiful looking brick. They said that had done a "factory reset" So I assumed it would be blank and that I could sign in with my google account, but that is not working.
It dawned on me that this may be a case of going back to the trenches and using ODIN panel, but I haven't done that in years.
Does anyone know how to overcome this problem? Can I flash the firmware with ODIN?
thanks!

If you still know the person, they don't have to remember the password at the time, they just have to be able to log into the account. Do they still use the same google account?
Hi, yes there is a way.
You need three things:
1 - a Combination firmware for your S7 (basically, a kind of dev firmware)
2 - Odin
3 - The original Firmware
You can find several tutos on Youtube for it.

Second option, i've recovered mine using a procedure with a simcard with a pin code. It worked and i didnt have to flash any firmware.
I factory reset samsung galaxy note 4 and when I got to the samsung account it shows there is an abnormal factory reset and I have to input the samsung account login details. The user can't remember the login details. I have tried flashing the custom rom using odin but I am still taken to samsung account login page when the phone reboots. I have tried other options of using emergency dials such as 000 then going to the browser but all seem not to be working.
Any help on how to bypass the samsung account would be appreciated.
can't remember any details? if email is known then try reset
