Hello people,
My grandpa gave me his P8 lite a some time ago. I want to start using this phone now, but his account is still logged in the phone. I'm a bit worried from the factory reset protection when I hard reset the phone. Sadly, he doesn't remember the password for his G account and the number that he registered it with doesn't exist anymore.
I'm asking, if I remove his account in the phone settings (I know the pincode so I can get into the phone) and then hard reset the phone, the FRP won't trigger?
Thanks for any help/answer

If you remove his account from the settings, there won't be a problem.

Hey Guys my friend has an IDEOS X5 and he has forgotten the unlock pattern and the google account password too and he can't use it at all. The company itself replaced it with a new X5 and they probably copied the data from the previous x5 to the new one so the phone still remembers that there's a forgotten pattern, any help ? thanx.

Can't he recover his google account password in his pc?
No he can't, if he could I wouldn't be here to ask.
That is dangerously close to a stolen device scenario, so I doubt you'll get much help because, after all, if you put that information out there who knows if the future theif of your phone won't be reading this topic? :banghead:
guess what, neither FBI can bypass android security pattern
I did finally managed to change the password of the Gmail but the phone doesn't know the new one because isn't connected to the internet.
Couldnt he just reinstall any rom?

I think he doesn't want wipe data.

And factory reset in recovery. Boot phone and restore /data manually.

Thank you all for your help, the problem solved !!!
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!

You must use the security questions. Too easy.

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

Hello. I forgot both my Google password and PIN. I have had installed the latest version of software on my FIG-LX1. Is there a way to bypass this or remove system completely and install it again?

Hello, I wanted to do a new post but I can see, my issue is similiar.
(Sorry to an author for stepping in)
Ok, cut to the chase. Anticipating questions about me stealing this phone, it is a company phone. Our former employee has been fired and the phone has been taken from him. Unfortunately, he has had a google pin password and after factory reset, the phone activated the FRP blocked. It is silly because even if I have the original email, I cannot log in.
First I'd like to try official ways, like, I don't know, is there any way to contact Huawei with that?
If not, is there any way to that without emergency backup? (I tried those videos from youtube, cannot get into this)
