After following a process elsewhere on XDA to set up a pin lock, (here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1848962&highlight=lock) I've been locked out of my device, with the response Too Many Pattern Attempts.
It says: "to unlock, sign in with your Google account." But I do that, and receive an invalid login response. (This is without active wi-fi, which I can't access for the settings!) I'm not certain that it's trying to connect online, but that's my only explanation for why my google credentials aren't working.
I was hoping I could use ADB to reset the PIN again, but ADB doesn't appear to recognize the Nook; maybe it's not opening up the device to USB until it gets unlocked. And ADB Wireless is something I can't even access until I get past this!
I'm currently on the road so I can't go back to my home wi-fi... and I'm not even sure that the nook would connect to the home wi-fi anyway.
At the very least, I'd love to find out how to boot it in recovery mode, maybe re-install and re-root everything. I've seen a few posts online about rebooting in recovery mode, but nothing consistent.
Any suggestions?
I got the unlock code and everything. Installed drivers, got everything in place but when I use the command " fastboot oem unlock "key"
It fails and shows me a remote error along with this
Enable OEM unlock in dev option .
But I can't see that option in dev options and iam fed up with this. I tried searching Google but no luck. I checked the cid to see if it is unlockable and the string was endling with " 007 " means unlockable.
Iam running marshmello ota. All factory. No root nothing..
Any help would be really appreciated. I just want to install cyanogen

Take a look at this thread in Lenovo/Motorola forums (currently 74 pages long), it seems you're not the only one that has this issue (e.g. post #10 [last post in page 1], post #14 [4th post in page 2] and post #15).
Go to settings/apps/all/settings and clear data only , then go back to about phone/ build number 7 times ,enable developer options oem unlock may be present. Try this.
had the same issue
SOLVED
I was fiddeling with my moto X 2nd and stuck on the same issue.
Running a OTA 6.0 stock unbranded FW Moto X 2nd
Same problem, no OEM UNLOCK under Dev options.
then gave up on the phone and started playing around with fastboot mode and went into recovery to have a peek, and solved the issue.
detailed info for other googelers:
(VOL DOWN while pressing POWER, release POWER after a few seconds still holding VOL DOWN for a few more extra seconds takes you to FASTBOOT, from there select RECOVERY, and when the broken android appears, press POWER to get into RECOVERY)
Cleared my CACHE partition and after that made a FACTORY RESET under RECOVERY and then REBOOT
Restarted phone and did the initial setup, selected not to enable REMOTE PROTECTION (this might also be the reason the allow oem unlock button was enabled, as said, have no clue what made it work)
And Voila! the "allow oem unlock" button was there after enabeling DEVELOPER OPTIONS and I could enable it and unlock the bootloader.
maybe the formatting of cache partition did the trick since it was OTA updated, i have no clue, but it is now there.
this helped me clean kingroot

Hello guys
Recently i got a moto g7 xt1962-5 , it came from Europe but when i do a factory reset and after selecting language and connecting to wifi , the android setup wizard show me a page titled " your device at work " and in the bottom of yhe page it says intelligent hub it requires a username and password , but if i skip the setup the phone works normally but it says that your phone will automatically factory reset itself after 1 hour and after 1 hour i select language and connect to WiFi and bla bla ....loop
What should i do
Thid when i skip the android setup wizard
This at start up android setup wizard
Any help here?
odd question but... where did you get the phone? can you root it? unlock the boot-loader? it is locked to whatever that company it via their MDM policy.
https://www.linkedin.com/company/groupama-protection-juridique/
if you can unlock the bootloader i assume you could restore via fastboot and that would unlock it. then again, it may brick you phone.
or thy this
On the managed mobile device, go to Settings.
Navigate to Security.
Select Device Administrator and disable it.
Under Settings, go to Applications.
Select ManageEngine Mobile Device Manager Plus and Uninstall the ME MDM App.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab A (2020, SN-T307U) that I got from work. It's an old Doordash tablet that Doordash didn't want back, so I'm trying to reset it and it's driving me crazy. I have followed so many tutorials trying to get this thing to work, I keep getting caught on something.
- Simply factory resetting does not work, gives an error that MDM does not allow it.
- I cannot put in the wrong password 15 times to factory reset, even though I get a warning it just lets me continue trying after 15 fails.
- I cannot enter the bootloader, rebooting to bootloader just reboots to the OS.
- I cannot enter safemode, same as above.
- I cannot enable developer options, so no OEM unlock or USB debugging. Tapping build number gives me an error that the MDM does not allow this option.
The device is recognized by Odin, can I just brick this thing and repartition from scratch? Can someone who knows what they're talking about walk me through that? I'm not really sure what I'm doing here, learning as I go over these last 2 days.
Hello,
I have the same exact same issue, have you been able to unlock it?
Thank you!
I can fix it remotely the last hope
Same Issue here,
Any one had any luck with MDM T307U. Please assist.

If you look at all of the previous post, it should tell you that no one has found a way to disable an MDM lock. Which is as it should be. Otherwise the lock would be useless.

That's not true as of today's date. (In the event this post is viewed after this exploit can be successful).
I am not taking credit and perhaps the op has discovered it. Anyway...
I am in Canada and noticed the carriers here stop at BL 8 while the USA has BL 9.
The unit i had was on BL 9 (csc TMB).
This probably works for Canadians on BL 8. I don't recommend flashing to BL 9 as that may affect your service or experience.
ANYWAY! This guide won't explain any prerequisites. They are adb, installing unsigned drivers, and you aren't able to use the device and are the owner
1) if not already, power off device with vol down+power and ensure battery is at least 50%.
2) enter recovery and factory reset. If you're having difficulty entering recovery, plug into your pc and as soon as you hear the audible disconnect, switch to vol up+power. Or jam on all three buttons for dl mode.
If in dl mode you can check firmware version and just flash it with bl, ap, cp and csc (NOT home csc). Use exact current version. Don't worry about userdata if it is USA
3) at welcome, connect wifi and imnediately go back to first screen. Don't use data sim
4) dl samfw app and on misc tab, check driver status and your pc will reboot.
*you must not have secure boot enabled
5) plug phone into pc. In the app, mtp and select youtube. If done right, click the pop up on your phone and navigate to chrome. Should be automatic.
6) search for vnrom frp. Once there download package disabler pro and notification app. They are side by side. Install notification app and set it up so you can swipe quick settings from top of screen.
5) unplug your phone from pc and plug it back in. Should be able to get back to the package app various ways to install it. Before install, turn wifi off. Now run package disabler and when it prompts for device admin, turn wifi on. It'll glitch a bit but should start.
6) locate samsung setup wizard. Don't confuse with the other. It'll have a green icon. Disable it and clear the storage. At bottom left, tap the back arrow and you should be back at final setup.
7) when asked to add samsung account, turn off wifi. Complete setup and don't add any accounts.
8) you should arrive at home screen. Your phone is re-plugged right? Good. Now turn on usb debugging and use the remove knox from the app. Done.
*i think i turned wifi on just before enabling debugging. I forget.
*if you are sloppy... you'll need to start over. You'll see, or already know
*you can do ota (if there still is any) but factory resetting or odin flashing will put you back to managed.

This method works up to step 7 for me. I can't seem to enable usb debugging before knox kicks in. With or without wifi. I'm experimenting to see if I can get past that step.
How to Remove MDM Control from Android?For anyone suffering from this issue, the following are the steps to bypass Samsung Knox factory reset protection:
First of all, create a password for the device.
Make sure that your device is charged to an 80% or greater charge.
Next, you’ll need to go to Settings and Security Encrypt Device tabs respectively.
Set a PIN/password for your device.
After you have secured your device and it’s gone through. Reboot the device, and when it boots, it will ask you to enter a password in order to access your device to view encrypted data. If you type the wrong password 15-20 times (it depends on your device), it’ll wipe your device of any information and will restart and then appear like you’re registering as a brand new device after a factory reset.
Thats the 2th!!! Try it

Hey,
A friend of mine gave me a ZTE Blade A52, model P963F61, that belonged to an aged woman. They wiped the phone and now when it comes to the setup screen it asks for the screen pattern or Google account that was used by the previous owner, but no one remembers it anymore.
I've tried connecting the phone to the PC via ADB on recovery but I can't use any commands as I get an "error: closed".
Does anyone know a way to bypass the screen lock or access the phone's file system to perform some ADB commands?
disable gms and clear data via owner picture gallery app info in emergency information as shown in this video, reboot and enable gms. done.
