Hey guys! How are you all?
My dad got an Moto G5 Plus but its locked with some gmail account and we can't put another e-mail.
"device restored, log into the old synced account with this device".. something like that.
How can I solve that?
I've searched the web but couldn't find an answer.
If anyone can help me I would appreciate.
Thank you!
Btw, if the only way is reinstalling stock rom or something like that, that wouldn't be a problem. We don't care about the data loss on this device.
Thanks!

If you bought a used device, ask the person from whom you bought it from to remove his email from the device.
You can do this, or install a custom Rom

Just hard-reset it. Press the soft keys+soft reset simuntaneouly and you can then commit a hard reset

You probably have the OLD version of JWright's ROM where it is a KNOWN BUG that the password screen would just pop-up for no reason. If that is the only problem you have and would like to keep that ROM. Follow what KDSKamal suggested and Hard Reset your Universal. To bypass the bug, just set a password. If you don't want to be bothered by the password, set to to come up after 24 hours. In that way the only time the password would come out is after a soft reset. Now since you already plugged-in a password, even if the bug suddenly reactives the password screen, you already have a code to unlock it.

thanks for your response...
i did it finally...
but i m a total noob...
could anyone kindly tell me how to upgrade it to WM6 and where to download the rom please?
thanks a million....
what if the password was set by the previous owner?
and what if you just bought a stollen PDA?

Then I would imagine that the previous owner would have reported it missing and I guess the next question will be "My phone isn't working!" =)
i help it's not a stolen phone....
but i got it with original box and all accessories...and the IMEI with the phone is matching the one on the box....
so i guess it's legit....
Then you're probably right, not a stolen phone.
Do the hard reset, become familiar with flashing the ROM by using the latest official ROM for your device, then you can try the WM6 unofficial ones, or even Linux. Better to know how to flash the device with the right image than to go straight for something that might not work the way youo expect or the way you want.
Good luck!
sorry to ask stupid questions again...
i tried O2 website but i don't see anywhere i could download the lastest rom...
i only see roms in this forum...like the ones from Darkforce....
and...is there anyway to back up the current rom that i have so i could try to flash it to the unoffical ones????
i really wanna try WM6...
sorry for being such a noob....
thanks again
plus....i saw some post saying flash/download the radio rom...but nowhere it said what it's for.....
is it really needed?
Try the FTP site (see the wiki for more info) for the radio roms etc, and the search function should help you find many of the custom roms for WM6y or AKU3 etc.
If you want O2's "latest and greatest" ROM (which is now very old) go to http://www.my-xda.com/xdaExecSoftwareDownload.html

I have a device I recently bought from the internet. It has a device protection on it. The seller says he cannot remember such information for me to gain access. So I am pretty much stuck.
How would I go about bypassing this?
Thank you in advance.

I have already tried to return and he was having none of it, it's been sat in the draw for the last month but I've only just round to try and bypass this.
Which at the moment looks highly impossible.
Is it on lollipop ?

I have no idea mate, I can't tell. It's just stuck on the 'Verifying your account' screen.
How would I go about checking with no access to the phone?
EDIT: I think it is on lollipop
Does anyone else have any advice at all?
Thanks

I really don't see any other solution , the best thing to do is to give him back the phone.

This is one method of getting around the Google FRP Lock:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mD6RcS8ulGw
He basically uses a loophole on the first time setup WiFi page to launch Google Assist - bypassing the setup process, download/sideloads some apps and adds a Google Account.
You don't have to have the apps on a separate sd card; you can download them from apk-mirror using the Stock Browser, then go back and install them through My Files.
When rebooting the phone - it forgets about the previous owners Google Account that was on the phone.
It's quite funny really - not very good security.
I ran into this problem when I factory reset a G903F on the latest BTU firmware using the old HOME+VOLUP+POWER combo.
Flashing the latest firmware using ODIN with re-partition and erase NAND didn't even remove it.
Coming from an older S2 - I didn't realise that setting a lock screen pin activated other security mechanisms.
It basically thought I'd nicked it.
I should've factory reset it through the Settings > Backup & Restore menus - have to remember that!
Good night my problem is this, I'm Argentine so I apologize if I open a post for something that already has spoken in another, buy a s6 edge + a friend and I did hard reset from recovery, not knowing that the new lolipop was bringing the protection of accounts, and turn it take me that surprise, my friend does not remember the account and password, so I urgently need someone to help me like this happen to overlook, or fix it.

The best thing you can do is ask your friend to reset his google password and then let him unlock your phone. That's the most XDA can help you with since we have no idea how the device was obtained. If he was your friend, he should take the responsibility of unlocking your phone.

Android phones require ONLY the Google account information to bypass the restriction.
Download the bypass app, then plug otg, install that then reset, i think that ur phone is not the newest version, so otg method would work

Go to rootjunkysdl.com then go to apps, download the samsung bypass apk
Could someone tell me if this would root a samsung SM-G900V, it sounds a little too easy.

No one even has any comments ? So I guess I will presume that the article has no merit. To bad , just what I was looking for , a stock root.
Thanks for looking,

Thanks for the link. I rooted my s5 without a glitch but.......my samsung account doesn't work, scloud doesn't work, so I can not restore my memos or messages, contacts or calender. I have tried a factory rest but it didn't work. It seems that none of the Samsung sync apps are not installed.
Anyone know where I can download them?
Thanks,
Scotty

theyre in any stock ROM. Just need to unzip it and the apk's are inside
Thanks for the info, I greatly appreciate it.

Yuodufus,
I don't know if you are still monitoring this thread or not but I have one more question. I rooted My S5 with the link that you give but I still can't get Samsung cloud, Samsung Sync or Samsung backup to work. I have search the Web for the files but no luck. Is there a way to upgrade to Marshmallow 6.0 and still keep root? The link that you give me says you can flash Marshmallow but will loose root.
I would be happy with a rooted stock Marshmallow and may get back the Samsung account.
Thanks for your time.
Scotty
If your phones emmc 15 then yes you should have no trouble upgrading and keeping root but if it's emmc 11 then you can only root 5.0
I have tried all FRP "fix" found on YouTube. Nothing works.
Is any method how I can root or enable USB debug?
Hello ?

I bought this phone "second hand" and all works good, but next day when i woke up i seen the phone "Welcome" and when i want to add my google account says "the phone was reset..."
Sorry for my bad English .
same problem....any solutions?
The purpose of the FRP is to protect personal property and information in the event the device is lost or stolent, so being able to circumvent that would defeat it's sole purpose.
Your best bet would be to email the Gmail you have on the phone and see if you can meet up again to disconnect the Gmail associated with it. Another possibility is to contact Google about the situation, perhaps they will contact the previous owner to verify the device was sold and to remove the email from the phone?
