The tablet asks you to enter your Google account information. Android won't accept Google account after factory reset (Google Account Verification)

A factory reset removes all data from your phone's internal storage. These are photos, videos, music, applications - everything that was recorded while using the mobile device. In this case, the SD card will remain untouched: the files on it will be saved after a hard reset.

So, without thinking twice and considering that this is the fastest way to solve all the problems, you reset the phone. Is there life after a factory reset? Is it possible to recover data on your phone after you have done .

Recovering photos and videos after a hard reset

  1. I have a Samsung Galaxy Duos. I forgot my lock PIN code and had to reset my phone to factory settings. Lost photos, videos, contacts and much more. Can I return them? I tried various mobile applications, but it didn’t work.
  2. . Apparently, they reset the settings - although the phone was password protected with a graphic key. After redeeming the phone, we discovered that the comrades who had stolen the flash drive had, of course, thrown it away. There are no backups. Mostly everything was in the phone's memory. How to recover photos and videos? Is this even real? In complete despair.
  3. I did a factory reset on my Samsung Galaxy J5. After that it became like new. I would like to know how to recover photos, videos, music. All these applications were in the phone's memory.
  4. I accidentally deleted files on my phone using wipe reset. Please tell me how can I restore them? Phone model Alcatel One Touch Idol2 6037K. Built-in memory. The battery is not removable.
  5. Please tell me, is it possible to return a photo if we took pictures and the photos were not saved, they were just in the “camera”. The child forgot the password on the phone and simply took it and reset the settings through the hardware buttons. Can we return the photo?

Answer. Yes, you can, but the likelihood of recovery depends on your persistence and the time that has passed since resetting Android. You can use the recovery method described above (by creating an image of the internal memory).

To search for photos in a connected disk image, you can use any software, even free software, like or (enable the deep scanning option). How to use them, watch in this video:

How to recover phone numbers after a factory reset

  1. If you did not set up before the hard reset, this guide will help you recover deleted contacts and phone numbers after the reset.
  2. If contact synchronization has been enabled (for example, via Gmail), connect your Google account and wait for the contact list to synchronize.
  3. Check if there is a VCF file on the memory card or internal memory of your phone.

How to restore applications

After resetting the settings, Instagram and another program are not installed. What should I do to install applications?

Answer. , as a rule, does not cause difficulties.

Some Android apps require a later version of the OS on your phone. After a hard reset, you roll back the Android version to the one that was installed by the supplier. Therefore, for good measure, you need to download the latest firmware updates to your phone. This can be done through the settings.

To reinstall all applications, just connect the user's Google account. The applications will be downloaded and installed on your phone automatically - in their latest version.

What to do if your phone doesn’t work after a hard reset

  1. I have an HTC One V phone and after resetting the phone stopped working. The screen turns on, the HTC logo appears and nothing else happens. What to do?
  2. Clicked on reset to factory settings. Now the phone says Secure Fail: Recovery and a yellow triangle. inside there is a black exclamation mark and again neither here nor there. The phone has not turned on for quite some time, what should I do?

Answer.

Method 1. Reset the settings again - deleting all data from the internal memory of the phone.

Since you do not have access to the Android OS, you can do a hard reset using the hardware buttons. For this:

  1. Remove the battery and put it back into the phone
  2. Press and hold the Volume Up button
  3. In addition to this, press and hold the Power button

After which you will go into recovery mode to factory settings.

Note. The method of performing a hard reset is different on many Android devices. For details, see your smartphone's manual.

Method 2. If a repeated hard reset does not help, install an alternative - unofficial - firmware. We recommend looking for instructions on the 4pda.ru forum.

After resetting the settings, access to the account is lost

  1. I lost my phone. When they returned it, I realized that they tried to reset the settings, but could not, because the Google Account interfered. How can I log into my phone now, given that I don’t remember either my password or login?
  2. I accidentally reset my phone and thereby lost my Google account. I tried to restore it, but it popped up: there is not enough evidence. What should I do?

Answer. The problem can be solved quite simply. You need to go to this Google page and answer the questions. If the account belonged to you and you had recovery data (for example, a backup Email or phone), you will be able to restore access and “link” the account to your mobile device again.

Recovering file names

I had a problem with my phone: if someone called while I was using it, a message would appear that the Phone app had stopped. I asked on the forum and they said that I needed to reset my phone. After the reset, the problem was solved, but the music, it turns out, was in the phone’s memory. Is it possible to restore it or at least find out what kind of music it was?

Answer. You will not be able to restore the music. Find out file names - yes, but only if they are saved in the file table. To do this, use the recovery method from internal memory, which we described in this guide. This procedure is quite complicated and time-consuming.

Phone memory is full

My tablet with Android v4.0.3 was automatically reset to factory settings. After that I can’t load the application, it says: internal memory is full, free up some space. But the memory is clear. What should I do?

Answer. Although a Hard Reset deletes user data, it does not completely clear the phone's memory - unless you select the appropriate option in the menu.

Try manually deleting the files. The most convenient way to do this is through the Storage Analyzer utility for Android.

Internet does not work when setting up the phone

  1. I forgot the unlock password for my Samsung Galaxy A3 2016. After resetting to factory settings and after the greeting, only the search for a Wi-Fi connection is activated, the “Next” button does not function. What to do?
  2. I recently did a factory reset. Everything was fine, I turned on the phone, selected a language, connected to the Internet, then the “connection check” download began. This download is already on the second day, I don’t know what to do.

Answer.

1. Try setting up your phone via a different wifi network (the problem may be with the wifi router).

2. Enable USB debugging on your phone 3. Download and install custom Android firmware for your device (a rather unsafe method, suitable only for experienced users!)

After the reset, the notes on the phone were deleted

I restored the factory settings on Android, but forgot to transfer phone notes to another phone. What to do in this case? Is it possible to somehow recover text notes?

Answer. If you previously stored text notes in the standard Google notepad application, recovery is unlikely: after a hard reset, all application settings are deleted.

However, if you set up synchronization with Samsung Cloud, you can easily restore your notes in the Samsung Notes app by resynchronizing them with your account.

Answers to other questions

Please ask any questions about recovery after a Hard reset via the feedback form. We kindly request: formulate the question in detail and preferably without errors.

    I was doing encryption and there was a glitch. There was nothing left to do but press the "reset" button. But before the reset I had a bunch of photos, there were photos of my parents, travels, etc. I really need these photos, I’m already hysterical and don’t know how to continue living when your whole life was on your smartphone.

    I accidentally turned my Android back to factory settings, i.e. I reset it, so all the photos were deleted, can I restore them using the application and which one?

Answer. After performing a factory reset, all data in the internal memory of your phone was deleted, including photos. There are two ways to solve your problem.

  1. Look for photos on your memory card, on the Internet (if you kept backups there).
  2. To recover data in internal memory, we recommend a simple program. You can download it on Google Play..

My friend caught a blocking virus on his Microlab phone. Naturally, no one wanted to pay hackers to unlock it. I reset his phone completely and now the language selection screen appears and then search for Wi-Fi. It doesn't go any further. I inserted the SIM cards, but it still won’t let me continue. What happened to him now and how to fix it?

Answer. This means that the problem is precisely that the phone cannot connect to the wifi network. Find an open access network and try to connect. If it still doesn’t work, change the firmware to custom one.

The glass on the phone (Samsung A5) was replaced and the phone was reset, photos and videos disappeared. Is it possible to restore and how? I tried it through your program - it didn’t work.

Answer. Curious to know what recovery programs you used. The question also arises: where did you look for the deleted data - in the internal memory or on the SD card. As written above, a factory reset erases the internal memory, so you will need utilities like DiskDigger for Android. Another recovery method is by creating a snapshot of the internal memory and further searching for files on it.

Android 5.1 Lenovo A2010. I wanted to update, but I clicked on the factory settings and all the necessary photos and videos disappeared. I downloaded it, but it’s impossible to open it, i.e. doesn't look up on the phone. What should I do to recover deleted photos and videos?

Answer. Really. Tenorshare Data Recovery can only be launched from a computer. It’s not a fact that with its help you will be able to return data after a hard reset (that is, resetting to factory settings). You need a way to recover from internal memory. See the answers above where we answered a similar question.

I did a hard reset on my lg D724 phone, having previously synchronized everything. But I missed the most important thing - notes from the notepad application. The wife had a lot of important information in her notebook. Tell me, please, how can I restore this?

Answer. Try it. We haven't tested it, but the developers claim that MobiSaver can recover notes. However, it is important to note that after a hard reset, the internal memory is erased, and not all applications can work with it. So, to be honest, there is very little chance of getting your text notes back after a reset.

I have a Samsung galaxy s7 edge. The problem is that when I entered the camera, it gave me the following notification “Camera error warning”, after which every time I enter the camera the phone gives me this error. I reset the phone to factory settings, but it didn’t help... clearing the cache in the camera settings and I reset its data, but all my efforts were even, nothing helped. I went to the service center and they said that they did not have the equipment to disassemble and see what was wrong with the phone, and in return they could send it to Moscow for repair, but it will take weeks or more, I don’t need it. Is it possible if I roll back the phone to the previous version of the OS, that is, 6.0, since I have 7.0? Or just reflash the phone? If not, will it help? then help and tell me a couple of ways to correct this error.

Answer. Go in and check if the camera is working. This will help identify whether additional applications you installed or along with the firmware are affecting the camera.

You may be using custom firmware - if so, we advise you to find alternative versions or reflash your phone to the official firmware.

If resetting to factory settings really didn’t help, you need to contact a Samsung service center or, as you mentioned, send it to Moscow for repair.

My phone has been reset to factory settings, how can I recover data from my phone? I tried it through applications from Google Play, almost all of them require root. What is it and how to get it?

Answer. Root access (or superuser rights) gives recovery programs access to the Android file system and full control, including deleting and overwriting files. Although, in fact, recovery programs only need access in read mode.

Even if you find an application that does not require root, the likelihood of recovery will be extremely small. Try installing the KingoRoot application (root installation in a few steps) and DiskDigger for Android, it should work.

After resetting the Prestigio NK3, the system writes that the SD card is not supported and suggests formatting. The reset was carried out with the card removed. There is a lot of necessary data there, is there a solution?

Answer. Most likely, the hard reset did not in any way affect the safety of the data on the memory card. If you removed the memory card while other files were being written to it from the phone, the SD card's file table may have become corrupted. You need to connect it to your computer or laptop via a card reader and check for reading errors using a standard Windows utility. If the errors are corrected, the SD card should open on the phone. If not, Recuva or DiskDigger with Dig Deep mode should find all the files.

My wife did a hard reset on her Samsung Grand 2 Duo phone without making a backup copy. Photos and music are not so important, all phone contacts were lost and it was not possible to recover application data from the Play Market. In all applications, everything had to start all over again. Please tell me, is it possible to somehow restore this?

Answer. The likelihood of recovering user data from applications depends on each application individually. So, if user data was stored on an SD card, then you can restore the data. Otherwise, after a hard reset, you need to scan the internal memory in an attempt to find each individual application file (the probability of doing this is quite small).

Phone contacts can be imported from a SIM card - of course, if you took care of a backup copy of your contacts in advance. Check to see if your contacts have been synced with your Google account and the Contacts service assigned to it.

Google is like a kind uncle who wishes only the best for his loved ones. However, excessive “guardianship” and the desire to do “the best” often turn into a disservice. With the Android 5.1 Lollipop update, smartphones and tablets received an additional feature that is designed to protect devices if it is lost or stolen. The principle of operation is quite simple: after resetting the device, and upon first boot, the smartphone or tablet requires you to enter the Google account to which this device was previously linked. However, if you bought a used device, or simply forgot your account, this can significantly complicate life. We will help you bypass Google Device Protection.

Method 1



  • Call this smartphone.


  • Write any numbers in the dialer and click “Add number to existing account”

  • After this, the system will prompt you to add a Google account, enter your data.

  • Save a contact with a random number in your account.

  • Reboot your smartphone.

Method 2.


  • Install the SIM card into the device on which you want to get rid of the lock.

  • Call this smartphone.

  • Accept the call and click on the "add new call" button.

  • In the dialer we dial the code to enter the engineering menu *#*#4636#*#*

  • After typing the code, your device should automatically redirect you to the advanced settings menu.

  • Press the "back" button and get to the settings menu.

  • In the settings we find the item “Restore and reset” or “Backup and Restore”.

  • Disable the "Data Backup" function and other recovery functions.

  • Perform a factory reset again (restore factory settings).

  • When you first boot your device, enter your Google account.

Method 3.

This is only relevant if your device supports Fastboot.

  • Install Android drivers.

  • Download and run Fastboot.

  • Put your device into Bootloader mode.

  • Enter the following lines into Fastboot:

Development of the android system is one of the main tasks of Google. Among the many new features, we want to talk about a new protection program that has appeared on all Android phones with version 5.1 and higher. Thanks to it, for example, if the phone is lost or stolen, the owner of the device has the opportunity to block it. Thus, no one will be able to boot the phone without knowing the login and password for your account in . It will also work when resetting the phone settings (hard reset).

This feature is called Google Factory Reset Protection, abbreviated as FRP lock.

A similar security scheme has long been implemented by Apple in its products and has proven itself quite well. This is what will happen if you do (for example, when deleting a pattern or phone firmware). When you first start and check access to the wi-fi network, the phone will ask confirm account. A similar message will appear.

Of course, if you remember the necessary data (they are entered when purchasing the phone), login and password, there will be no problems. But how can you bypass Google account verification if you have forgotten all your personal data and there is no way to restore them via email, and the firmware does not help?

There are several ways to choose which one is right for you, I can’t say, since each phone manufacturer (Samsung, Micromax and others) produces models with their own individual features - different function keys and software.

  • Reset system settings and remove DRM license without cable.

To do this, we need to get into the phone settings by bypassing the standard boot through the help system. Watch the video for step-by-step instructions using a Lenovo phone as an example.

  • Soft reset via app.

Here the procedure is more complicated. To do this, we need an OTG cable with a program downloaded to a flash card, or simply reset the application (StartSettings.apk) on Micro SD and insert it into the device. More details in the video using the example of a ZTE phone.

  • Other non-standard methods.

Due to the huge number of models, there is no single correct solution to this problem. For example, in this video, the author turned off the modem with Internet access during the test and was able to bypass the confirmation on the LG G4 phone.

The most complete list of all non-standard methods is presented.

I hope that with the help of our material you were able to unlink your phone from your Google account. If you have any questions, write them in the comments

Many of you leave your own options for bypassing the protection. We want to share one of them. This method was used on the Huawei MediaPad T3 7 tablet.

1- Charge the tablet 100%
2- Turn on, select the language, region and connect to Wi Fi, accepting the terms of use.
3- On the next page “Google Services”, click on the blue inscription “Google Privacy Policy” and in the window that appears, click and hold on any of the words so that an additional menu appears in which there is “Web Search”. Click on it and select Opera (namely opera, because in Chrome it may not be possible to open downloaded files).
4- Download Test+DPC. I had version 4 (as an option, use other programs quickshortcutmaker and Google Account Manager). I don’t know how anyone downloads it, but I went to my Yahoo mail, where in my inbox I sent myself the required file from another mail. Install and launch. Select the second item “set up device owner”, encrypt the device. Although in many videos I have seen they choose the first one. I haven't tried it personally. A reboot is in progress. Several times further, and then the DPC window pops up asking you to set up a profile. We accept the agreement. Customizable. Then some kind of sign will pop up endlessly (I don’t remember which one, I don’t have a tablet at hand anymore). Reboot.
5- By clicking next it should start (if the DPC menu pops up asking you to create a profile in English, select the lower value “skip”.
6- That's it, the tablet is running in normal mode. Go to settings and do a full reset. After turning on, we are happy with the unlocked device

They also ask in comments and private messages on Google. We have a separate article about this. Here we are discussing something a little different, namely possible ways to bypass confirmation.

Let's supplement the material with another video from a visitor. This method will be useful to all owners of Xiaomi phones, regardless of the model.

The first version of the Android platform has undergone several updates since its release. Google, paying great attention to the further development of the system, is constantly working not only to correct detected errors, but also to expand the functionality of the popular OS.

One of the innovations of the developers of the Android operating system was the latest protection system, which appeared on devices starting with version 5.1. This function (Factory Reset Protection or FRP lock) is as follows: if the smartphone is lost or stolen, the owner will be able to lock his gadget, after which, without a login/password pair from a Google account, the phone will not be subject to further use. The same protection will also work if you try to do a hard reset.

But how can we bypass our Google account if we reset the settings ourselves, for example, when flashing the device or deleting the pattern? In addition, there are often cases when the system does not accept the correct password/login.

In any case, when you first start the device and try to access the wi-fi network, a request will appear on the smartphone screen to confirm your Google account on Android:

This is where the need arises to find a way to cope with the problem.

Google account bypass

It should be noted that the situation is complicated by the fact that in the context of a large number of companies producing smartphones based on Android, and an even larger number of models, there is simply no single universal solution for all devices. Therefore, we will now look at several proven options.

How to avoid the reset problem

To avoid getting into an unpleasant situation, do not forget to take advantage of the opportunity provided by the developers. To do this, before performing a reset, go to “ Settings", select the section " Accounts" (May be " Accounts"), we find " Google", open.

Next, call up the menu by clicking on the three dots in the upper right corner and select “ Delete account"(on some models, the action selection is caused by a long press on the account field). Now we need (USB debugging) and activate the “ OEM Unlocking»:

Five ways to bypass Google account protection

Method number 1

The first step is to remove the SIM card and then turn on the smartphone. Next, select the desired language, ignore the window with SIM (button “ skip"). In the next window where you need to enter a phone number or email. mail, press and hold the symbol @ until the settings button appears, first press it, and then “ Android Keyboard Settings" After that, press the touch button “ back" at the very bottom of the display, then press and hold the submenu button there (you may also have to press the " home", differently on all devices) until the Google search bar appears:

In the search bar that opens, write the word “ settings" Once in the settings section, select “ Recovery and reset", and then turn off " Auto recovery" And " Saving backups"(and in exactly this sequence), after which we reset the settings:

Method number 2

Another universal method that can help in a difficult situation when it is not possible to access the Internet or settings or it is also impossible to perform other actions.

What should be done:

We insert the SIM card into the locked phone, from which we will delete the drone account. Then, call this number from another device. We accept the call and select the action “ Add new challenge", then enter any numbers in the dialer:

Now we need to enter our Google account, for which we know the password (or create a new one). After that, we save the contact to this account:

After the completed manipulations, reboot the smartphone.

Method number 3

We insert a SIM card into the smartphone that we will unlock and call this number from another phone. Next, as described in the second method, click on + (i.e. add a new call), and drop the call. After this, the keyboard will open, use it to enter the following combination: *#*#4636#*#* (see screenshot):

Immediately after entering the last character, an automatic transition to a new window with information and advanced settings will occur. Now click on the arrow located in the upper left corner of the screen and go to the standard device settings, select the section “ Recovery and reset", disable " Copying data" And " Auto recovery" (May be " Archiving" And " Data recovery"), after which we perform a factory reset (or hard reset):

It remains to wait for the procedure to complete, and after that we log into our Google account via Wi Fi.

Method number 4

You can try to enter the standard settings in another way: on the main screen, press and hold the “ Home", and when the Google icon appears, tap on it and go to the search bar, click, the keyboard appears, type the word " Settings»:

Method number 5

Please watch the video that tells you how to bypass your Google account using the application after resetting the settings QuickShortcutMaker, which will help provide quick access to the settings of a locked smartphone, as well as to the menu of applications installed on it:

We talked about the simplest and most popular methods that can help resolve the issue without harming the device. You can find a lot of other methods on the Internet, but do not forget that if you are not confident in your actions, then there is a danger of causing even more damage to your gadget. Therefore, if you have saved the receipts and the warranty period has not expired, then the specialists at the service center will help you completely free of charge.

*Note: if the described actions did not bring the desired result, do not rush to try everything at once. It makes sense to wait from one to three days, and then proceed to the next attempts, because this is exactly the period provided by the developers for unlocking the device.

Was the information provided useful to you? Have you encountered such a problem? If yes, then tell us how you managed to bypass your Google account on Android. That's all for me, good luck!

Starting with the fifth version of the Android operating system, developers have added a lot of useful and interesting functions to it. The most important thing is to pay more attention to the safety of the device. One of the most important features in the new version of Android can be considered Factory Reset Protection (abbreviated as FRP). If your phone ends up in the hands of an attacker and he wants to reset the settings or flash it, then he will not succeed. You will have to enter the password for your Google account, which is specified in the settings; a similar method for blocking smartphones is used in iOS.

If you absolutely need to solve the problem with confirming your Google account after “a”, no matter what the reasons, then today we will tell you several interesting ways to bypass this protection.


There are several most common methods to bypass FRP after a reset. Some may seem too simple, others, on the contrary, will require more time and certain knowledge from the user.

Method one: The simplest

(all actions occur when setting up the device when you turn it on for the first time)
  1. We go to the page with the ability to select a Wi-Fi network.
  2. You can choose absolutely any network.
  3. You should call the keyboard by clicking on the text field where the password for the access point is entered.
  4. Depending on the keyboard, you must press and hold one of the buttons: space bar, language change icon, comma, switch to number pad (123). A small menu should appear with a choice of the current language, as well as the ability to go to the keyboard settings.
  5. Having entered the section with keyboard settings, you need to go to the section "Reference", top right corner.
  6. As soon as you managed to complete this operation, the so-called “shifting” effect will work, opening a new window, and if you click on the “Recent” button you will see a search. In general, you need to get the “Google” line to appear at the top of the screen by opening several windows.
  7. Now all you have to do is write the word in the search bar "Settings" and select them.
  8. Go to the section "Restore and reset", put a tick next to the item "Delete account", leaving other sections in the same state and press the button "Reset".
  9. After rebooting the device, you will not have to enter the password for the previously linked account, since it simply will not exist.

Method two: Using a browser and several applications

  1. On the language selection page, you need to tap on the empty field with two fingers and hold them until you hear the voice assistant. Unfortunately, you won’t be able to turn it off; you’ll have to endure everything she repeats.
  2. Swipe from top to bottom and then immediately to the right (should resemble a 90 degree angle). The voice assistant setup menu should appear.
  3. Select an item "Speech Setting".
  4. Then you should go to Google settings by clicking on the gear icon. All that remains is to find the place where it says about the license. Click on the license and see a window with a lot of text. All licenses will be displayed at the top in the form of a list, and a little lower, text describing their purpose. You won’t be able to click on the description, but you can click on the name of the licenses. You need to highlight these names and then click on the icon with a magnifying glass. The device will immediately go into search, all that remains is to perform a few simple manipulations.
  5. Enter “Internet” in the search bar. A context menu will appear in which you will be asked to select a program for opening Internet links, for example, select Google Chrome.
  6. You will need to download two apk files from the links below. First frplock.apk, and the second, depending on the version of Android - for the 5th or 6th version.
    (downloads: 9188)

    (downloads: 7227)

    (downloads: 4322)

  7. All you have to do is go to your download history by clicking on the ellipsis and find the files you just downloaded.
  8. First of all, install the file "frplock.apk". A window about installation from unknown sources may appear, check the box and agree.
  9. Install the second downloaded file "GOOGLE_ACCOUNT_MANAGER.apk", after which we tap on again "frplock.apk".
  10. At this point, the unlinking process can be considered complete, the old account will be deleted, and you can link another account or create a new one.

Method three: Using a memory card

(all actions are performed with the device turned on)
  1. We go to the menu where you are asked to confirm your account (enter your password).
  2. We look for a memory card and, without turning off the device, insert it into our smartphone.
  3. A notification will appear on the screen that the SD card is ready and ask "Change default recording memory?" press "OK".
  4. The device will redirect you to "Storage Settings". Scroll to the bottom and go to the section "Application and media data".
  5. We get to the section "Applications" to the tab "All", looking for an item "Settings" and select it, then scroll down and select "Launch".
  6. Let's get to the general device settings menu. Looking for a section "Restore and reset" and go into it.
  7. Next you need to select "Reset DRM" and tap on the item "Removing all DRM licenses".
  8. In the pop-up window, click "OK".
  9. Upon completion of the operation, the message will appear on the screen "Licenses successfully removed".
  10. Returning to the menu "Restore and reset", tap on the item "Reset" and then select "Reset phone settings", "Erase everything".
  11. The device will reboot, all data will be deleted, and you will be able to link a new Google account to your smartphone.

If none of the methods worked for you, then watch this video instruction with the fourth method of bypassing FRP.

Each of the described methods is universal and can be useful to you if you have forgotten your account password, but cannot recover it. In the comments, you can indicate which method helped you, and if nothing worked, write the model of your device, and we will help you figure out your problem.
