Guys im about to freak out, I just got a phone en ebay that is locked, i knew that it was locked but I was not expecting this type of lock that I needed the original samsung account to unlock it, even after factory reset!!!
I have tried different options with odin but not of them worked, I also saw some videos in youtube to bypass this screen but they do not work know because if I press the button of "forgot your ID or password" it says that I need to go to account.samsung.com.
I cannot access to the phone to see what version of android is this...
Please there has to be a way!!!
many thanks
Nobody????
ok guys iI may have an answer, I need to downgrade to 4.4 from G900VVZW2BOK3_VZW, how can I do this??? somebody please help!!!!
There is no downgrading from ok3
So you tried getting the stock OK3 firmware (didn't know this existed, we have OG5) and flashing with ODIN in Download mode?
https://samsung-firmware.org/download/Samsung GALAXY S5/769o/VZW/G900VVRU2BOK3/G900VVZW2BOK3/
As ldevereaux said, as of OE1 Verizon has made the phone non-rootable (and thus no custom recoveries) and non-downgradable, so you will need to keep working on the current version your phone has on it.
Guys, I was able to open chrome in the phone so I can access nearly anything on the phone but is still locked, I go to uncheck the reactivation lock but when I do that it activates again by it self... how can I do this permanently! i can install any app, go anywhere on the phone, but it still locked!!! If i shut it down i wont be able to access again.
Sounds like you'll need to contact the seller to get the password.

do you guys think he could put it into download mode and flash the stock stuff so he could atleast get the passcode off of the phone?
the seller doesn't have the password either
That sounds fishy to me. They have to use the Samsung software to remotely lock the bootloader, which requires them accessing their Kies account that they created. Hate to say it, but I think you bought a stolen phone.
well yeah it seems it is stolen, i got it in ebay and the seller said he got it locked from another person..... I wasn't expecting this kind of lock.. never had a samsung before...nothing I can do... i will keep trying I already spent my money on this...
try flashing the original stock firmware and everything from odin and it should be just like a factory reset and itll get the passcode off
Already did that.. was the same... keeps requesting the stupid passcode
So I have been trying just about EVERYTHING to remove this Goddamn FRP Lock on this phone. I used Odin to reflash the factory firmware, still same lock, tried factory resetting on the recovery menu... I just don't know what to do. Can someone please help me!?
How I got this stupid lock:
So my friend just gave me a phone that he got from a friend. He never turned it on since apparently, and when I got it, it had a password lock saying, 'Ha, you dont know my password *****'. Extreme letdown, then I thought 'Hey, why not factory reset through recovery, since I now own it. Now I am stuck with this FRP Lock, and without a doubt, he doesn't give me the account information needed to unlock it.
Try this

Has anyone tried and got this to work successfully?
I bought a used zenfone 5Q off of ebay and it had a screen lock password protection on it. I used fastboot and I think what I did was try to rewrite the recovery image. I now have the dreaded FRP lock problem (sign in with previous google account). I cannot figure out how to fix or bypass the FRP lock. The only thing I've come up with is try to use TWRP to backup from a 2nd good 5Q phone I have and restore it to the bad bricked phone but since I cannot access the settings I cannot even enable USB debugging to try to unlock the bootloader. I've been trying for days to figure out how to fix this FRP lock, can anyone please help me?

With frp enabled, your not going to be able to use fastboot or recovery. Contact the seller of the device. I'm sure there's a frp bypass method, but I doubt you will find one posted.
Where did you find twrp for this device?

no the seller posted that it has a password lock and it's for parts. well I thought doing a hard reset would fix that but turned out it was harder than I thought, recovery mode didn't even work. I actually did send command to it using usb to update the firmware and I think what I did was rewrote the recovery image, but I'm not sure. I was able to get teh phone to the let's get started part but than it asks for the previous google account. there is not 1 single frp bypass for this phone yet and every method of trying to get out of the lets get started page is useless. there's tons of 5q twrp tutorials out there, it wont let me post the link but the best one i saw was from getdroidtips

If I had a spare device I would try to assist you with the frp bypass, but my 5q is my only phone. I'm going to lean towards the phone was stolen if the seller doesn't know the Google account info. If you have an otg maybe give that a try. Many of the old frp bypass methods have been patched, so most of my old methods probably won't work. There are eBay services that attempt to do it for a fee, but I personally would not trust them.

the only ebay frp services I saw were for samsung, I don't think I saw many asus frp services. yeah like you said I have only seen tutorials for up to the zenfone 3 or 4. and none seemed to work, everything seems patched. when I google 5q frp, the first hit is this thread, lol. hopefully in the future someone can find a way. I have a fully working 5Q, I was just thinking hey wow a 5Q for $120, I could fix it, but no

yes you can. I was able to update the firmware with adb to the locked 5q, but instead what that did was remove the pin lock screen however the "welcome please set up phone " came up and then it said log in with previous google account. this is an frp lock, don't think adb can do anything, that I know of

doesn't custom rom require usb debugging enabled? How can I enable it if I cannot access settings? I think I did try to reboot bootloader, I could be wrong, but I don't think that worked. frp lock isn't a joke, it is a b$tch to bypass unless someone else has fixed it
just an update: found asus support online and they said it's under warranty (through imei number lookup) through sometime in 2019, gave me an rma and an address to send it back. Just sent it. included ebay receipts, not sure if that helps at all or just confuses them. so best bet to get this fixed is either 1) do not buy any phones that have FRP lock on them or any kind of a pin number lock. return back to ebay if you were mislead or just don't be tempted because of the low price like me thinking it will be easy to fix by resetting it, doesn't work. or 2) asus support and they will lookup your warranty coverage. fingers crossed. I asked them if they'll just give me a refurb, the rep said no they'll fix it so there is a chance they can't do anything, but they did make the phone, hopefully they have software that can truly reset those phones and wipe off the FRP. everyone including best buy cell reps and even asus customer support have no clue what I'm talking about when I mention factory reset protection lock, they can't even repeat back what I just called it. will update if this works. if your phone is out of warranty ask if you can pay to have it fixed, assuming mine returns back actually fixed, will update again hopefully
SOLVED! after I did a chat with asus phone support they gave me the RMA number. I had to pay shipping, used usps priority (they give you 30 days I think for the RMA). anyways they spent literally 2 days after they got my zenfone 5Q and fixed it!. the papers for the work says "problem /symptom : OS hang up" "action: reinstall HDI image (PC) / FOTA (phone/pad) to solve the problem. you do not send in the charger or anything, just the phone, do not send any case or protectors with it. In my case it was still under warranty since this is a new phone. talk to asus support under the section phones (not computers, laptops, etc) tell them the problem (google factory reset protection, cannot set up phone because it asks for a email and password which you do not have and that you purchased it like that, cannot set up phone to use it, etc). they will ask imei and check your warranty. if your phone is out of warranty beg them if you can PAY to have it fixed, THEY KNOW HOW TO FIX IT!!! my phone is working RIGHT NOW!!! it is 7.1.1 android and everything seems to be working!! next time NEVER buy a phone with a pin lock or any lock on it. make sure the seller unlocks it and removes their google account!! I never tried contacting google if they can remove, maybe they can but their FAQ on frp lock says if you cannot remember the info than you are out of luck!, good luck!, never buy a phone with a password lock on it! no matter how cheap it was to buy it
Alright, I'll try to be brief.
I've had my H1711 for a couple of years. Used it for AT&T prepaid. I replaced it with a Samsung about a year ago, so it's just been collecting dust. I recently decided I wanted to try rooting it, Huawei be damned, so I used DC Unlocker and got it rooted using the latest TWRP and Magisk. Root went smoothly. Long story short, I messed up and had to put it back to the stock firmware. However, this left it with a bootloader screen saying Phone: unlocked, FRP: Lock. However, I do not get stopped at verification. I can use the phone just fine as a normal smartphone. But, I'm completely unable to flash or boot anything, and I've been trying for days to clear the FRP lock, to no avail whatsoever. I've searched the XDA forums to exhaustion, tried everything I could find, and nothing works. I cannot clear this damn FRP lock. Does anyone know of a way to get rid of that damn lock, or should I shift my focus to something less frustrating? I'm at my wits end. Please let me know if you have any ideas. I'm gonna consider my other options. Thanks.
does the universal method for clearing frp not working?
Im having the same issue :/
Hi All,
I'm really sorry, I'm completely new to all this so hope I'm posting in the right area and explain this issue correctly!
I purchased a dead SAMSUNG T580 Galaxy Tab off ebay and managed to repair the hardware fault which I was pleased about but then encountered the dreaded FRP lock so I still can't use the thing. It's running firmware T580XXS5CTK1 and I've no idea what to do with it now, it's not got the assist option when trying the add network trick, so then I thought I could perhaps use Odin with combination firmware but the only combination firmware I could find even remotely similar was T580XXU5ATD1 which I didn't really expect to work and I was right, the tab just got stuck in a loop and I ended up re-flashing with the T580XXS5CTK1 to get it back to starting correctly.
Does anyone have any suggestions how I can get rid of this lock please? I only bought the thing as an amusement thing during lockdown but it'd be nice to get it fully functional!

Sorry to say, but FRP is there for a reason. Best to get another device which is unlocked
I got a similar problem. Stuck on 32% with "no command".
For usual, I frozen the emergency service, but I unfrozen all to update apps in samsungs store.
After a restart I got a frp lock, rom was a modified stock of T580XXS5CTK1 and twrp.
I was surprised that I can't solve it this time.
I know fully acc details and pin, but how to use it?
I bought another Tablet, but the A6 is a unique one, I would be very thankful for some help.
I don't know a tablet is solid, stable and easy to repair like A6, some games it still can handle.
Original packaging, invoice, all available, password and pin known, help me please.
