Today I got my phone back from Samsung because of some issues with my Nexus S and when I booted it up I saw the unlocked padlock! LOL You'd think they'd relock it...

Why is it ironic? (I don't think your situation was 'ironic') Depending on your issue (which you never said), they may or may not have to mess with the "software". They'd probably thought you'd unlock it anyways, so what's the point.
I thought it was ironic b/c unlocking the bootloader voids your warranty. I was having sreen issues so I sent my phone to Samsung. I never rooted it.

Probably because your screen issues isn't software related which is what unlock the bootloader is.
HTC was the same way with the Nexus One. Doesn't matter if your bootloader is unlocked if you had a hardware problem. Lots of people RMA their Nexus Ones with bootloader unlocked to get power button/overheating/screen/button issues and HTC honored the warranty. (Mine included)
My friend gave me a Note 3 of his for free before he left to thailand (he was helping me out because mine took a drink). So I was sooooooooooo excited to get off this lame nexus s. Problem is he has a passcode unlock and he didn't tell me it. He will be gone for 6 months and I don't know when or if I will be in contact with him (he's there for work). So my question is :
How do you take the passcode off the phone so I can use it for myself? I tried flashing the stock Samsung firmware from sammobile, and it worked like a dream, but it STILL has the passcode. This is such a headache I was really excited to have a good phone once again
if anyone could help me out this would be GREATLY appreciated, it's stressing me the hell out!!!
I dont know how to bypass the lock screen, and it may be illegal
But FYI, the Note 3 has 26 partitions, but when you flash the stock firmware, only 12 partitions have been flash. So the rest of partitions may store the passcode...

Put the phone into stock or custom recovery, whichever you have and then
do a "Factory Data Reset" and reboot the phone.
Once that's done you will no longer have problems with lock screen.
But you will need to add your own gmail account and so on.
Good luck!

You try factory reset. I have the same problem and it solve for me
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I bought a N6p from a person on offerup. Came home to found out it is Googled locked with FRP. The person isn't responding to my emails, etc. I was able to get pass the setup once and see that the OS is 7.0. Has anyone found and FRP bypass with 7.0? Fastboot flashing unlock is not allowed. I don't think OEM unlocking is enable in developer mode. Thanks in advance. I've tried all the things from rootjunky, but they are all patched.
Model: NBD90X
OS: 7.0
OEM unlocking: Disabled
FRP Locked
Working on it atm.
I got the same issue, trying 2 or 3 ideas i have, i will get back to you with news ASAP.
Even if you get to the setting pages, it wont let you enable developers options. Anyone have a clue?
Yep just got into the same boat, bought a 6P off swappa and locked out of phone.......
same problem with me! does anyine know if you can bypass the frp with a pc program?
Anybody?
Good Luck guys, I got a hold of original owner......
Bump
So let's say for example a thief gets a hold of my phone and he wants to bypass FRP he can just come on XDA and boom it's posted all over this site. Get where I'm coming from? Nobody will help.

I haz fone bought from stolen. Can you include FRP reset software mod for my 5 Finger discount phone?
Like swappa would let a phone be FRP, I have had TONS of people I met purchase a phone from swappa and not one problem. And for those who purchased theirs from craigslist and offerup or what not you SERIOUSLY STOLE, I mean did'nt factory reset the phone in front of them? This is not a new technique. I do it EVERY phone I buy and sell and I even RESET THE PHONE IN FRONT OF YOU. Yoy have a situation that no one will help. Ask swappa for a followup. And Offerup is a stealfest.
Like troyd28 said. It's not going to happen.
No help on this forum. Noe should there be.
You can't get to adb through the bootloader? If you can get a hold of a copy of an efs you might be able to change the imei and serial numbers. Check the OnePlus one forums , some people over there had similar problems.
Though I don't know how to flash with a locked bootloader, maybe roll back to offical 6.0, there was a method to bypass for one of the versions.
Have you tried contacting Google? It may be a pain in the ass but also check what kind of protections the service you purchased from offers.
There is an FRP bypass now for 7.0.
Ok guys I will tell you this only once.
Talks about Changing the IMEI are illegal and not allowed on XDA.
No, this forum does needs to exist. There is a way to bypass FRP. Motorola had to have built it in for their own use and repairs.
Somebody will figure out or spill the Moto codes to bypass FRP in Nougat 7.1.1.
How nice for you tech_head. I know it must be cold at the top of your idealistic mountain. Most thieves do not know what XDA or what hacking even is or know it exists - that is why they are bottom feeders and ignorant and trade a stolen phone for a bad of dope.
The person who purchases this stolen phone is an innocent victim as well. There will be a way to hack 7.1.1 eventually and I will be the first to pre-praise the hacker who figures it out.
Get over yourselftech_head.

I bypass FRP with 7.1.2 on a pixel with lock bootloader. ..
Hello recently I received S8 SM-G950F.
It is updated to latest 9.0 One UI
Is there a way I can bypass or remove the FRP?

Generally speaking to turn off FRP delete/remove all accounts from your phone if you can still get into system. IE: Google/Samsung accounts.

No I can't access it.
I'm stuck on setup screen..
I've found a solution (maybe) I have to flash combination firmware U4

Should work but due to XDA rules not supposed to really support frp bypassing although there are plenty of how to's but maybe this thread might provide some insight.

My case is the same. I've got the phone from close relative and he also doesn't know Google password.
It's a waste to throw this phone away really.
Thank you for replying me, have a nice day/night
Just google it my bro. Its not hard.

LOL. Had the link said that Zeus came down from the heavens and gifted it upon Kenzyyy, while jumping on 1 leg and singing the hokey pokey.... Kenzyyy would have had the same exact case.
I don't know why everyone doesn't just say that they stole it/bought a stolen phone/were given the stolen phone from a friend that realized it was useless after they took it. It's amazing how 100% of the people on XDA asking for this, have this exact same scenario. Now, onto googling on how to crack 7 FRP locked phones for a friend
(He was gifted them, as he works in a cell phone repair shop & they give a discount on a brand new phone to those people...literally the same one anyone else could have negotiated to w/o an FRP phone)
Kidding...Kidding...But it was just to illustrate how preposterous these unoriginal fake stories always are. At least be a little creative, like you would be when scamming the MSL code from a Sprint rep. By claiming that you're a developer and need it to test your apps functionality.
[He was only gifted 6 phones, and they all had cracked glass and damaged OLED's. And those people actually paid $5-$10 more than the non-FRP phone trade in people that negotiated well. Had they not offered the trade-in, the people wouldn't have realized it was just a normal discount]

I used to buy devices from police auctions 99% of which where frp locked. But by law I owned the devices. I had official paper work. So in these cases frp bypass was legit. But. Every ones brother cousin dad mom everytime forgot their password and I've heard the stories so many times now almost identical in each case. Its uncanny. ????

Exactly. There are legit cases when people have them in their possession. But, when someone answers "My case is the same. I've got the phone from close relative...." It doesn't exactly exude confidence. It simply shows that the person literally didn't even try. I mean, who immediately says that their case is exactly the same, to the very first story they're told.
This ruins it for the rest of the people that legitimately have them. As the mods don't want many of these questions answered. Not only that, there are threads where it's posted in detail, yet the OP decided that they're too lazy to search on their own. Not exactly surprising from someone that states "My case is the same. I've got the phone from..."
If for nothing else, these are usually good for a laugh.

It's not so absurd actually.
My neighbor gave me her s8 before moving back home. In fact she replaced it simply because of a tiny scratch... Some people? Anyhow. It never occurred to me until that night ****ing with it trying to reach her... She has yet to respond...I ended up trying to reset it and found this... Which I've never encountered before. I was a software engineer back in the day (University of Michigan Mathematics Dept.GO Blue!) and upon seeing this I figure piece of cake. Well I'm now impressed and indeed relish a challenge. For I really don't need the phone. But I'm considering a reflash approach.
I understand the purpose of such rules but it does stink when your real agenda is intellectual.
Ok, so my sister drives Uber and 3 months ago a passenger left their galaxy s10+ in her car. Yes, she tried to reach out to them, and now that its been over 90 days and noone has claimed it, she decided that she wants to gift it. Well... She went on youtube and looked up how to factory reset. Now when it powers on, it says "unauthorized attempt to reset..." So shes asked me to try to access it. Now, i haven't used a samsung phone since before Knox was integrated. I dont know how the security works or how i can bypass the google account verification. I dont even know if its possible to access and use the phone now. Im basically a noob here. Can anyone help me out?

Which model is it? If its the US model (G975U or G975U1) i dont think theres a way. If its the international model (G975F) i believe someone has accomplished bypassing protection. Dont know the exact method though.
Sent from my SM-G975U1 using XDA Labs
I can only assume that it is a US model
It sounds wildly unlikely that anyone would leave behind a $1000 phone and ignore someone's attempt to reach out and return it. And unless XDA changed its rules posting any methods to get around the lock on a phone gets you banned. Samsung customer service could likely have found the owner of the phone if there had been any sincere desire to return it to the proper owner.

Your sister is uber driver. Do you think the passenger don't have your sister's car info? I smell something fishy about your story
I appreciate the concerns as to the legalities of my question. Yall are saying the same kinds of things i did. In the end, i told her "its impossible, sorry." And I've washed my hands of it.
