[FRP] HTC Desire 626 - Verizon Prepaid - Model # HTCD200LVWPP - htc_a32e
I <3 HTC!
This HTC phone is OLD and yeah I know this probably won't be of much use these days as many people do not have this phone still? .. (I have 4 different 626 variant almost all modded out physically and software) .. but I have to post it because I love doing FRP's manually, it will help those that want to learn, and obviously help those with this device.. So for some time literally every device I get my hands on that I have spare time for or think might make for an interesting FRP removal I make sure to "freestyle" and find my own ways 95% of the time without using google or youtube. Yeap.. even when I have the hardware and software to do it sitting in my office. I wanted to cover just about every way possible I could find and come up with on my own to remove FRP for this old dandy here. Hopefully someone will find it of some use and or use these simple methods on other older and some methods (such as 3, 4, 5 and 6) will work on newer devices. If you do a lot of FRP removal you already know all of this so you can move on. Before any negative criticism.. Yes I do know some of these removal processes are taking the LONG route but again I did it so to include everything possible for the HTC Desire 626 Verizon PrePaid model in this tutorial.. For fun and learning purposes.
I would say it's best to read the whole tutorial first and see which you want to give a try and because it is just good to know incase you come across another FRP locked device. The easiest will be method 1.
Whats Needed:
-Tiny bit of time
-Quick Fingers (method 1)
-ADB & Fastboot (linked in thread and for methods 3, 4, 5 depending on program)
-FRP Removal Program that removes through ADB (method 5)
-EDL Cable (method 6)
-Qualcomm Drivers (attached and for method 6)
Initial Steps: Enable accessibility by holding 2 fingers on the homescreen, when enabled, draw an L shape starting at the top of the screen. At the top right you will see a half circle that says [Talkback Settings]. Press this and then follow through to the Talkback Settings. Using two fingers touch the screen and move up with your fingers to scroll the screen now scroll down until you see *Talkback suspend and resume* and enable this. Hold both volume buttons to disable talkback and now you can ->
NOTE-> For Methods 1, 2, 3 and 5. If going through [Recent Apps] -> *Settings* -> *Screen Pinning* does not allow you to backup into settings.. Then select the other option *Running Apps* and backup into settings using it. Reason i say this is because I have found if i do not go in the order i describe below then backing up into settings from after screen pinning it won't backup into settings unless i select *Running Apps* and go back from there. Either one should work really. I wasn't able to backup into settings without enabling screen pinning though and it only worked if I went straight back after enabling.
1 FRP Bypass Hack - Enable Talkback by holding down both volume rockers for 5 seconds. Make a backwards L swipe. Swipe out from the right far over to the left side almost to the edge then up to the top. Make sure you swipe the line over for the bottom of the L shape almost over to the other side of the screen before you draw up with it. You might have to do it a few times and play around with your starting point up and down the right side of the screen and over in the middle close to the edge of the screen where you go back up the screen. You will get it eventually. Now press both volume buttons to disable Talkback. You should now be in Recent Apps and at the top right will be 3 dots. Select these and press [Settings] and enable *Screen Pinning* then press back until you get into Settings then go down to [Backup and Reset] and click on this then [Reset Phone].. Now here is where it gets fun! We are going to quickly bypass Android 5.1's protection disabling the ability to press the *OK* button you see at the bottom. You are going to want to go back a screen to start. Next press on [Reset Phone] and now with your right thumb quickly press OK and as soon as you do this you will see where the box pops up and know where the OK button on it is. So position your right thumb or w/e finger you can press with quickly over the area where the *OK* would be or remember the spot and go back a screen and repeat the process. Eventually because of doing this the system will slow down some and the box will stay longer so you've more time to click *OK*. You will see it works if you do it quick enough. Bingo. Done. Phone will restart completely reset and you have now bypassed FRP.
2App Process Kill - (Need to revise and finish this soon) Enable Talkback by holding down both volume rockers for 5 seconds. Make a backwards L swipe. Swipe out from the right far over to the left side almost to the edge then up to the top. Make sure you swipe the line over for the bottom of the L shape almost over to the other side of the screen before you draw up with it. You might have to do it a few times and play around with your starting point up and down the right side of the screen and over in the middle close to the edge of the screen where you go back up the screen. You will get it eventually. Now press both volume buttons to disable talkback. You should now see [Recent Apps] and at the top right will be 3 dots. Select these and press *Settings* in the list and enable *Screen Pinning*. Now you want to press back. You will now be in [Security] so scroll down and enable *Unknown Sources*. Press back again and now you will be in [Settings]. Goto [App Manager] press this then goto the tab that says [ALL]. Scroll down to *Google Policy* and disable it, clear cache. Next find and close *
3 Command Prompt ADB - Enable Talkback by holding down both volume rockers for 5 seconds. Make a backwards L swipe. Swipe out from the right far over to the left side almost to the edge then up to the top. Make sure you swipe the line over for the bottom of the L shape almost over to the other side of the screen before you draw up with it. You might have to do it a few times and play around with your starting point up and down the right side of the screen and over in the middle close to the edge of the screen where you go back up the screen. You will get it eventually. Now press both volume buttons to disable talkback. You should now see [Recent Apps] and at the top right will be 3 dots. Select these and press settings in the list and enable *Screen Pinning*. Now you want to press back. You will now be in [Security] so scroll down and enable unknown sources. Press back again and now you will be in [Settings]. Scroll down to [About] then to [Software Information] then onto [More] and press the build button multiple times until it says "Developer Settings Enabled" and press back 2 times. Goto [Developer Options] and enable *USB Debugging*. Now...
You can hook up the phone to a computer using a Micro USB Data Cable, install adb link -> https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979 , open command prompt by pressing windows key and r at the same time then typing in cmd . Now type this code into the Command Prompt window -
adb shell content insert --uri content://settings/secure --bind name:s:user_setup_complete --bind value:s:1
If it doesn't work then
adb shell am start -n com.google.android.gsf.login/
If it doesn't work then
adb shell am start -n com.google.android.gsf.login.LoginActivity
Done.
4 Command Prompt FASTBOOT - (Doesn't work on mine and unlikely to work due to locked bootloader etc but you can try on your device as this works for more devices than just this... and then post results)
You can hook up the phone to a computer using a Micro USB Data Cable, install fastboot link (don't install again if you already installed for method 4) -> https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979 , open command prompt by pressing windows key and r at the same time then typing in cmd . Now type this code into the Command Prompt window -
fastboot -w
If it doesn't work then
fastboot erase config
If it doesn't work then
fastboot -i 0x2a96 erase config
Done.
5 FRP Removal Program - Any FRP removal software or hardware program and or box that supports FRP removal using ADB / Fastboot.
Hook up the phone to a computer using a Micro USB Data Cable, install adb/fastboot link -> https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979 ->

Goto [Developer Options] and enable *USB Debugging*. Now... Run any program out there that has the ability to remove FRP using ADB. You can also alternateively try putting it into fastboot and using their fastboot removal options but these are more than likely going to be the ones used in method 4 unless a special method. Done.
6 EDL Mode using Program - (This would not work with the programs I normally use but will work on other devices.. other 626 such as the Post Paid Verizon variant and other phones)
NOTE: This will require you to have a EDL Cable & Qualcomm Drivers installed. The EDL Cable puts the phone into Qualcomm 9008 mode by changing some pinouts in a cable and forcing it to goto this mode which you normally only see on US Qualcomm phones when.. it is hardbricked. If you do not have one you can Google or search YouTube on how to make one with just a spare data cable and a little snipping and twisting of wires. Make sure you have the Qualcomm Drivers intalled first. Use 32/64 bit according to your systems architecture. If you need help finding out you need to check your system information on windows to see which it is. Most newer computers will be 64 bit. x86 = 32 bit and x64 = 64 bit.
Put phone into EDL Mode using cables instructions. For my cable i boot the device then I plug the cable into the phone and into the computer. Then I hold down all buttons which would be both volume rockers and the power button while also holding down my EDL cable button and I wait until the phone shuts off. From here i wait about 8-12 seconds then I release my button forcing the phone into Qualcomm 9008 mode. Ok now after you've done this open [Device Manager] on your computer to make sure it has recognized the phone under [Com Ports]. Now use one of many programs out there to remove the FRP. Reboot. Done.
READ: AFTER ALL METHODS GOTO BACKUP AND RESET AND FACTORY RESET YOUR PHONE BEFORE USING!
Please post your results and let us all know which method you used on your device!

Hi, I'm currently trying all your steps to do the bypass on my own HTC, but I can't access Developer Settings to enable USB Debugging and OEM Unlock, do you have a fix to that ? Thanks in advance

'Device locked' on Today screen doesn't work, right?
Hi all, if you try the following... 1. Click 'Device unlocked' on the Today screen so it changes to 'Device locked' 2. Turn device off / wait for it to go to sleep 3. Turn device on / wait for something to wake it up ...the device has unlocked itself, correct or is it just my Xda Mini S? So how are we supposed to lock the device properly from accidentaly screen taps -- a problem I keep encountering? Also, is there any way to add a timeout to the device lock, so if the screen isn't tapped for 5 mins, it automatically locks (assuming we actually make the lock feature work in the first place!).
My K-JAM used to do this all the time. I never actually worked out the exact cause, i have a feeling it may have been caused by software i was testing when i 1st recieved the k-jam. It stopped doing it altogether after a recent hard reset. Sorry i wasnt more help. Cheers Chris
the device lock wasn't made with these systems in mind... it's intended for smartphone devices which don't have a 'suspend' state - let alone a button you can push to put it into, and bring it out of, that state. If you want a free, proper locker, put the following in your today-screen-app-launcher of choice: http://www.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=14621 This'll 'lock' even the on/off button (immediately 'locks' again if you try to turn it back on, or shut it off (by holding down the on/off button - as you need to confirm by dialog)). On the down side, it'll also turn your display off. To unlock, on the Wizard, you need to press the Messaging (top-left, front side) button and the Voice Dial/Memo (top-right, side) button at the same time.
That lock/unlock feature on the Today screen is pretty crappy actually. I locked my keys religiously. And half the time, I would pull my phone out and it was on a webpage or on my email... and I never opened them. I'm hoping they fix this... -Mc
Well it's ridiculous that O2 etc. keep the function enabled by default on the Today screen of their units, if the feature is for Smartphones only! But then, there's a lot of things O2 don't understand about the world but don't get me started on that.
Warning! Do not use Screenlock! Warning: I think this program just killed my Wizard. Don't install unless you know the risks. http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=212261#212261 People, please don't recommend software on here that is not tried and tested on WM5.0.
On my Qtek 9100 it works. The only button that doesn't lock is the power button. Accidental tap of the power button will turn the screen on. You cannot even press and hold to power off when locked. When phone comes back on it stays locked.
I have been using this application for a while now - but I think the warning for installing sofware goes for all software. Who is to say that SPB doesn't install something that 'phones home'? Or that Mort Script doesn't cause irreperable harm to the registry stack when using its registry functions? I've had no problems with it, but I guess I'll continue in your other thread. I also can't just quickly tap the on/off button. Sure, it goes on - but it then immediately goes off again as well.
Thanks. What happens if the device crashes or you soft reset whilst the screen is locked? Does it reboot unlocked with the screen on? I wondered if mine had somehow locked completely, so the screen is off when it reboots ...but that wouldn't explain no LEDs working either :?
I don't know about crashes but, with some reluctance - admittedly, I tried the soft-reset (pin button at the right) while the screen [w]as locked... ...the device switched off, switched back on, booted up, and displayed my Personal Info screen. So... no problem there, sorry :/
Well I have my replacement Mini S now. Any other programs than ScreenLock that do this? I'm sure I found once, but I can't find it any more :?
I couldnt get screenlock to work on the ppc6700, but mortsaver worked just fine, you might want to try that.
I'm perhaps misreading this, but the device locking seems to work ok for me on my XDA Mini S. Once I've locked the Mini S the only way I can use it again is to unlock it - if I touch the power button or let it go standby itself, when I touch the power button to wake it up, it remains locked. Also, if I hold down the power button for five seconds or more the Mini S will not give me the option to switch off entirely. John
Hi John, Do you have a Device Password setup? ( Start > Settings > Personal > Password > [x] Prompt if device unused for... ) I find that when 1. Device Password is enabled 2. you lock the device 3. you press the device on/off button (goes to standby) 4. you press the device on/off button again (goes back on), the device is unlocked. When Device Password is disabled, and you then follow steps 2-4, the device remains locked
In my experience this is true [it sort of makes some sense you can't type in your password with the device/screen locked].
it would make sense if... A. the password dialog would actually pop up (note that if you turn the device off/on manually, before the password prompt timeout, the password dialog does not show up) and B. they would first show the unlock screen and -then- the password prompt The password prompt facility effectively overriding the unlock screen is just bad software design.
well put zeboxx... i wanted to say something in those lines but couldn't articulate them properly [ended up with a it sort of makes some sense jibe...]

Disabling power button long press/disabling "phone options"
I'm using an alarm clock called Morning Routine. It's great since I'm a heavy sleeper, but I have one problem with it. While the program DOES lock the screen and keep me from going home and closing the app, I can still long-press the power button, access the Phone Options menu, and turn the phone off. I'm a heavy enough of a sleeper that I figured out how to do this while still half-conscious. So, I was wondering if it is possible to develop a script to temporarily or permanently do one of the following: 1) Disable the long-press of the power button to launch the Phone Options menu. 2) Remove Power Off from the Phone Options menu (I know some ROMs add Reboot to this menu, so theoretically, couldn't something be removed?) 3) Re-map the long-press of the power button to another function (thereby disabling the Phone Options menu) None of these will be a problem if they are permanent - I can download an app that will allow me to shutdown my phone from a widget instead of the power button. Oh, I'm on the crappy ol' Samsung Moment Admin, feel free to move this if necessary.
+1. has ANYONE got a fix for this pls?!?! my daughters are driving me CRAZY turning my GTab off...
Try Button Remapper: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=850464 As for the reboot option in the power options, have a look at this then reverse the process: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=811532
you could just get your daughters to not turn off your device...
That's really unhelpful. I have this issue too - on an HTC desire running DevNull ROM. (Also happens with Oxygen - tried it.) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14709327 Please help!
[Q] Broken G2!!!! Need Help with screen shots
I have a g2 that is broken and I need help getting some things off of it. the phone works except the screen wont come on. The touch screen works but I cant tell where I am touching. i want to use Droid Explorer to allow me to use the screen emulator but there is one catch... My wife never turned on the USB Debugging. I would like a few screen shots of the STOCK G2 from TMOUS 1) I need the home screen with the menu button pressed 2) The settings screen... If "applications" fits in the first screen then just that screen... If it is below the screen then could you show me a shot of the last item on the first screen scrolled to the top so as to be able to see where "applications" will lie. 3) The shot of the "applications" page and where "USB Debugging" is Thanks!!!!!! Don
Well I'll try and help (My replacement got the 2.3.3 update so no root) If you can get into settings swipe down hard so you know you're at the top of the page. From there Applications should be lateral from where the charging port is on the side. Tap the same spot for development, and USB debugging should be lateral from the top of the volume up button and tap anywhere on that line (At least on GB) and it should come up with a pop up. Now put your finger right above the home button and just tap in a straight line up and stop before you get to the middle of the screen and USB debugging should be enabled. ( The phone is upright during this, make sure phone is unplugged during this or it may go to the USB storage screen, just hit back in that case and continue with your phone above the home button.) Let me know if you need more help. Just did it with my eyes closed so works from my end =p
Thanks!!! That worked!!! Thanks!!! Now we are cookin!! My wife says thanks!! Don
HD2 WP7 screen not responding. Need help to access SMS
Hi! I have a massive problem atm that I'm hoping to get your guys help on. My screen on my HD2 WP7 device is caput...not responding at all to any touch input. I know that this had nothing to do with the ROM (PDAimatejam Rom v8) but more the hardware itself (I believe that this is a common problem with old HD2's - ie. diffuser goes or something). Right now the only thing I can do is accept or reject an incoming call. I don't mind resetting the device but there are 2 SMS text messages that I desperately need to read. Is there any way to access these via my computer using USB->microUSB, or if there is a utility that I can flash to it to allow me to access the device interface? If so, it will have to be something that I can flash as I cannot access the device interface at all. Hopefully I can resolve this soon with your advice/help! Thank you in advance!
you can try but only if you have SMSBackup installed on phone restart phone (screen must be not locked) to show main screen with tiles connect to Zune install SMSBackup to phone (if not installed) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1448197 install wf Phone Tools to PC (if not installed) http://wpmanagertool.codeplex.com/ run wf Phone Tools, connect to device (Zune must be run and screen unlocked), select "extract sms from device"
Thanks for the reply dxdy. I'm downloading wfPhoneTools now. ClickOnce installer ran but application doesn't open. In any case, I'm unsure if this work....if I reboot my phone I won't even be able to get to the main tiles interface. I can bypass the "Enter PIN" screen by pressing 'Back' on my device, but that will take me back to the lockscreen, and device is not registering any touch input for me to even slide up to unlock. Advice please?
screen not responding? try pressing the call and power button alternating quickly and simultaneously. This works coz sometimes the digitizer is located at the bottom of the power button and gets stuck at times from pressure (like putting it in a tight pocket) and the green button puts counter pressure on the opposite side so relieve the pressure

Click to collapse Hi drmodify. Tried that as well but to no avail. I followed some advice I read up somewhere on XDA to press down hard just above the power button, in a way to kind of 're-seat' the digitizer (lol, I called it a diffuser in my op!). That actually did the trick, albeit temporarily. But managed to get my SMSs off the phone. Thanks anyway for the input!
Coming from LG G4 - have a few misc. questions
1. I liked having the dock clock activate while charging. There only seems to be a daydream clock setting and there's no where to select "while docked, while charging, either." When the 30 seconds expires to initiate sleep, screen just goes black. What am i missing? 2. Can you re-arrange the quick launch setting options? 3. I'm assuming to use fingerprint, you have to use pattern, pin, or passcode? 4. I've noticed waking the phone from charging forces you to swipe to make the phone functioning. Is there a way to not have it locked while it charges? 5. Is there any way to modify the functionality of the hard buttons? 6. Face recognition seems useless. I would think if I hit the power button and then wake the phone and show my face, it would automatically unlock and it doesn't (I end up using the fingerprint). Also, the pocket/body security featured even when enabled doesn't seem to keep the phone unlocked. TIA!

Yes, in the Daydream menu, hit the 3 dot menu button in the upper right hand corner and select "When to Daydream" - you'll see those options. 2. Need you to elaborate. 3. Yes. 4. I don't know what you're talking about it needing to be swiped to make it functioning - but to the other part of the question regarding not locking when charging - not that I've seen. 5. If there were, you'd have to find a custom ROM / xposed module that would do that - I haven't seen any. 6. Personally I've never used it, and like you said, if you have the fingerprint, why bother?
