Galaxy Tab A blocked - Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers

Good evening. I promise to have searched the forum but did not find an answer So...
On trying to start a Galaxy Tab A I get the following error message (translated from German): "Logon to WLAN-AP not possible. An unautorised reset to factory settings has been done on this device. Access to the logon screen is not possible."
With other words: This device is completely blocked. What can I do to access it again? Thanks for your thoughts

Another device, camera etc.

Yeap, will do if I have the device within reach. Tomorrow or so...

This video (although for a Samsung Galaxy) shows how to unblock the tablet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Y-aHwdjAZA The problem is therefore solved. Thanks for reading, thanks for replying.

@veryfunny: Thank you for posting back with a solution, so others of us with this problem can benefit. Much appreciated.

I gladly paid for mine.
Payment server
I was going to pay for it too. But I don't trust their payment server. I should be allowed to use Paypal and not need to enter my personal information again. So sorry Bud but I don't trust a method where I log into Paypal, and then get sent to a window where I need to enter my address, my phone number etc.. doesn't feel trustworthy. I have never had to enter my information after I used Paypal for something and I am not about to start.
I guess I'll go back to sensor lock and just have to fix the code to allow the phone to answer. I would have supported his effort but not if I need to re-enter my personal stuff that Paypal has confirmed. :
OH SNAP!! I just realized it removed my outlook email account on my device and keeps crashing SQB. I don't think anyone should install it. Seriously this program is malicious code somewhere

...definitely no malicious code in PocketShield. This is one of the best locking apps available. Customer support is second-to-none. Updates come thick and fast with new options and settings. Superb software - just buy it!
I second that pocketshield is an excellent app and have experienced no malware-like effects
has anyone come across an issue with it not locking when waking up?
Mine stopped working and now doesn't lock unless I run the Lock app.
Make sure you have latest v2.1.1
If power off with AeButton or other way not the standard power off, it might not lock.
regards
mine locks very well, but i suggest asking for help @ pocketshield.net there u can speak directly with the developer ..
Pocketshield ROCKS! and the developer has been super-responsive to enhancement/bug reports.

Uninstalling pocketshield
I installed Pocketshield on my phone, then uninstalled it because it was making my phone crash and ending up with a blank screen that was impossible to take out, and now, the phone skin is changed to the theme that comes with Pocketshield. I removed the program, but I can't go back to the original phone skin that comes with the HTC Diamond. How can I go back to original settings without doing a hard reset?
HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin\Enabled=1
Softreset
Where you using the official and latest version? Rare issue...

Pocket Shield
I have tried both Pocket Shield Protector and Pocket Shield Proximity used in conjunction with VolumeX.
I have tried nearly every possible combination of settings to achieve what I need and I always seem to hit one snag or another.
I originally purchased Pocket Shield Protector and VolumeX. When my blue tooth answer button stopped working I switched to Pocket Shield Proximity and Jim was nice enough to switch my registration from the more expensive Protector application to the less expensive Proximity application. I have since asked Jim to move my registration back to the Protector application but he hasn't as of yet.
In general this is a good application, however, it lacks polish on the basic functionality.

[TUT] Bypass All LG Lock Google account "Verify your account'

Bypass All LG Verify your account (LG Google Factory Reset Protection ) on Android OS 5.1.x
Download and copy file APK Shortcutmaker to MTP or USB OTG
http://vietfones.vn/forum/showthread.php?1037877
Was the file you needed on the thing you plugged in? Is that why you plugged it in or was that an unnecessary step?
Not sure this goes along with the rules on XDA and security in general. There is a reason you no longer have access to a device. We can't and should not take the risk and guess what that reason might be. At all times we should assume an unauthorized access attempt. Especially in this case. Reported (under reserve).
A genious o.o
would have been helpful when i got my new phone, cleaned google account, changed pw, factory reset phone. 72 hour lock!
but.... yeah. much more helpful for phone theft than regular users.
Shortcut to Settings
First, thanks to vn_mobile for sharing.
Second, here's a quicker way
Install Quick Shortcut by OTG as per the OP
Then search for "reset"
Select Settings, MasterClearActivity, Try
Reset Phone
Done!!
Great, I now can make a list of XDA members I know are morons. Let's hope they also have social media info in their profiles.

Maybe because this Exploit has been fixed and Google won`t let you bypass the FRP like that forever. It never worked on ALL devices.
this just happened to me on my htc m9. i changed my password sunday. reset my device and im like WTF? im done with google, this feature should be duely noted to consumers and in the literature. im taking my paperweight m9 back to tmobile and getting an iphone. i don't mind security but this is too much.

How to bypass Google verification on Zte Axon 7?

I've tried many ways on YouTube none have worked. I found out a way to get on the Android launcher but when I try to factory reset it doesn't let me.
Generic solution to frp is to access browser no matter which one. Except for samsung phones and not all of them but a few. Accessing browser you need to download two apps. One is quickshortcutmaker and second is to download old google manager for log in but it need to be web log in. There is ton of videos out there. The reason you want web log in is so you can add additional account to that device. The rest is history.

I know about this one. Some Samsung phones have issues with this when u change password. It takes forever. U need to access share button in beginning of verification. Share button either name share or 3 dots or 2 dots connected. Try every single app choice u get. Apps itself is not the reason but web browser is. There are some apps which lets you share further. And there you will find browser icon. Try weshare!!!!!!
I never tried this on Axon 7 but i assume its similar to Lenovo A series with their own copy whole phone type of app. It lets you enter browser in that app. I assume that weshare is behaving in same matter.
The order is like this
You have google log in screen. Either you try there on log in or you try while accessing wifi. There is always some hyperlinks there like help, feedback, policy, security etc etc. When ever there is hyperlink then there is couple of options. Then you need to access copy paste by holding marked letters to access share or open in browser etc etc. From there is easy if you can access web browser. Follow youtube for rest.
The only time screw up messes "everything" and there is "nothing " you can do then wait is when you delete iphone from your own icloud so you dont have icloud on actuall device and then want to change password on pc while two step verification is active. That is a nightmare. It cant take up to a month before apple makes it done.

Actually no it hasn't been 3 days I remembered I reseted my device from powering it off when I was trying to fix it so that would mean that the time would reset meaning I have to wait 2 days more to see if it will disappear. How long ago was this for you?

It was 48 hours for me exactly when it was fixed. Usually I heard it takes at least 72 hours to get cleared up.

I typically used their voice unlock to get in the settings or using the keyboard on the setup to get in settings, went to backup and account, pressed factory reset and it didn't work. I waited 48 hrs, then it let me sign in.

Hey don't know if you have seen this but I would try to use this app. I haven't had to FRP unlock a Axon7, but I have had a bit of experience in taking FRP off of phones along with many other fixes. If you can get to chrome or whatever browser and download and install this then it should work. I have used this on a ZTE ZMax Pro, so I would imagine it would work here unless they patched it. Anyway, good luck and let me know if you need more help.

Hmm... Well as I have not needed to FRP reset my Axon I can't really tell you exactly what to do. All I know is that method works on some and not others. Really what you are trying to do, especially if you can use the web login like someone else mentioned, is add a Google account that you remember how to login too. Then when you factory reset you should be good. If that doesn't work I say either try to reset the password or whatever Google account is on there, or maybe EDL mode programs which I haven't done much with. I'll keep looking for another way.
Edit: btw the web login you can try to use would be with the com.rootjunky.frpbypass-1.0.apk 1.17MB on the same site I last linked. That along with maybe one of the other Google account managers that are listed there. Good luck!

[HOWTO] Samsung Galaxy Tab A T580 remove FRP Google Protection

Been struggling for days to bypass frp on t580, android 7.0 finally succeeded an wanted to share with you guys
Searched alot on xda and other sites, here are the steps:
1. flash 6.0.1 a firmware from samfirmware with bootloader u2 for example T580XXU2APL4.
2. on wizard setup, add wifi network to have internet, then in top corner press more->add network. type 2 letter then select them with it pops up a menu and in the right there is a google icon saying "Assist". press than 2 times, the second time is opens google search.
3. type chrome and open chrome. from there go to rootjunkysdl.com/files/?dir=Apps and get com.sika524.android.quickshortcut.apk. install it (it will ask you to allow unknown sources).
4. in chrome go to apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-account-manager/google-account-manager-6-0-1-release/ and install google account manager, overwrite the current one (it gives the option to type google user and password).
5. press back until you go to the google search, type "quick" open Quick Shortcut Maker.
6. in the Activities tab scroll to "Google Account Manager". click on it and choose the one with description "Type Email and Password".
7. tap "Try", then go the menu in the right top corner and select "Browser sign-in" and login with your own Google Account
8. hit "Back" multiple times until you arrive to wifi settings from the wizard. press next and continue with the setup, google account will no longer be asked.
i've attached the 2 apks, just in case.
Have fun
Ps: credit also goes to whoever discovered this
