Success: Bypassing *samsung account* lock after factory reset

Hi all, before I forget about this and move on, I just thought I'd share my experience, as most "fixes" for the Factory Reset Protection that I could find online related to google account-based lockout, rather than samsung account-based lockout. The lockout in question says something like "This device is locked because of an abnormal factory reset. Sign in to the Samsung account that you have already signed in to on this device to confirm it belongs to you."
Apologies for the vagueness of the final step (5) below - I wasn't setting out to document what I did, so wasn't taking notes. I am in a rush now but when I have time I'll try to be more specific. Perhaps someone else may jump in with their detailed experience in the meanwhile!
Background: My workplace passed on to me a used Galaxy E7 (specifically SM-700H). Not knowing about the infuriating "Factory Reset Protection" protection, I simply wiped it via the stock bootloader the moment I got it. Then I discovered it was now locked - and that the previous user/employee had walked without sharing the samsung account and password used. All purchase info etc lost in the mists of office disorganization so no chance of an unlock via Samsung, I assumed .
Anyway, so I found the installed 5.1.1 rom (specifically, LMY47X.E700HXXU1BPA1) was resistant to tricks I read elsewhere designed to give access to the phones settings, so I downgraded to an older kitkat rom, then found I could access settings from that, as this hole presumably hadn't been patched. The following worked for me:
1. Download ODIN (I used ver 3.11)
2. Download a stock kitkat rom to use to downgrade to. I used E700HXXU1AOE4 which is from Nepal I think, but the region doesn't seem to matter. (Most free firmware download pages are deliberately crippled, I found they are super slow and always timed out before completing; but this free page has fast downloads: http://www.theandroidsoul.com/galaxy-e7-stock-firmware/#jump-model-no-sm-e700h )
3. Flash that newly downloaded firmware using ODIN (you can use the instructions here: "How to Install/Update Official Firmware on Galaxy E7 SM-E700H Manually through Odin:" http://www.androidofficer.com/2016/01/e700hxxu1bpa1-android-511-xxu1bpa1.html )
4. Boot up, connect to the internet via wifi. I signed into my google account at some point, but not sure if that was necessary. That step comes before the Samsung Account lockout screen presents itself.
5. (SORRY this is a little vague, will come back to it later, but trust me, this worked for me!) Click about through the several available pages and settings which appear before the Samsung Account lock page until you find any piece of disclaimer/info text, I was looking for some which included a URL, but it turned out I think that wasn't even required. Highlight some text, touch it again, and look for a search/globe/internet icon. Amazingly, that will launch the phone's search function via google now/its internal browser.
6. At that point, you're essentially outside of the "lockdown" intro screens. What i did was put the word "settings" into the google now search box, then at the bottom of the results page, slid the category slider from the default "web" results source, past "apps" and "images" etc across to "phone", which delivered a link to the phone's actual settings.
7. At that point, you can drill down to "Security" then deactivate the "Reactivation lock" setting, enable developer mode, unsigned apps, etc - whatever you feel needs doing - then restart the phone in the normal manner. The setup screen is back after restart, but without the lockout. Voila, a working phone.
Notes: So no need to download sideload any external apks. Also a gotcha - I subsequently created a new random Samsung Account to sign into, because i was afraid the unknown samsung account lockout curse would return - then i noticed that by signing in to that, it had once again ticked the "Reactivation lock" setting - watch out for that!

help me bypass LG Stylo 3 TP450 FRP, Security patch Dec 2017?

So I bought a cracked screen LG stylo 3 TP450 before Christmas from Donation store. Turn out phone still work fine and i've been searching a way to bypass FRP since then.
So far i could get into setting and force stop Apps but i can;t find a way to soft reset yet.
Someone help me plz?
If you can get into Settings, then you should be able to get into a browser or a search box. In either, type Chrome and then open the Chrome browser. Once it's opened, go to the website: vnrom dot net/bypass
You'll see several files. The ones you'll need are:
Android_6_GAM.apk - Google Account Mananger, this lets you sign into your Google account
FRP_Bypass.apk - This bypasses the FRP
ES_File_Explorer.apk - If your device does not have a file manager
Install Android_6_GAM, open it and follow the prompts.
Install FRP_Bypass, reboot device and then set it up.
Once your device is set up, go into Android and reset your device to factory defaults from Settings. Set it up one last time.
Now you're done and the device is FRP locked to your google account instead.

[YT3-X90L] Lock state - locked - Recovery image needed

Hello XDA-Community,
I've got a Yoga Tab 3 Pro YT3-X90L from a customer.
He was telling me, that he wanted to unlock his device with the pattern, mismatched for several times and now its locked and requires the owners google account. Or something like that. He never had the owners google account. He told me that his seller has activated his device for him. And he has no clue who it was.
Now here is my part.
I've researched and obviously it's a FRP. The owners google account information are stored in the FRP-Partition. And this partition won't get deleted with a simple factory resett.
What i've tried so far:
1.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCzrnnh2K1w I was able to follow this tutorial to minute 9:08. But the option "Email and password" is not there anymore. I guess they patched it with 6.0.1.
2.) I tried to flash a stock rom or twrp with LenovoDownloader(QcomDLoader). The stock rom file is: Lenovo_Yoga_Tablet_3_YT3-X90L_ENG_S200028_1609230146. even its a german device this file was the only one i could find. But the LenovoDownloader won't recognize my device. The windows stays white, no entries. I guess i installed the correct driver for this device and Windows recognizes them as removable device if i plug it in via usb.
3.) I've tried to use adb and fastboot boot oem unlock. But this commands aren't working in locked state.
4.) With a trick i could open the Settings and was full of hope to active the developer options to set usb debbuging to active. But this developer options aren't available either with this "user".
5.) There is an apk for showing the "Email and password" interface. I could install it, but it force closes right after starting it.
6.) I've tried several tools to bypass this FRP: WinDroid Toolkit, D-G Unlocker, Realterm, but NOTHING.
What could i do further? I'm out of ideas right now.
I've read about a factory_update.img but i cant find anything, except the stock rom file, for this device.
Or downgrading the device, so i could use the "Email and password" but. But i can't even flash the stock rom.
Specs for the device:
Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Pro YT3-X90L
Lenovo/YT3_l0_row_lte
6.0.1/MMB29M/LenovoYT3-X90L_S200307_170614
i appreciate any help i can get
greets

I've wrote it down. Hope this helps.
Situation:
"Confirm account: The device has been reset. To continue, sign in with a Google Account that was previously synced on this device. "
Explanation:
The device has been blocked by repeated input of the wrong password, pattern, etc. and can only be unlocked with the Google account of the owner.
A factory reset or hard reset does not help here, as the account information is saved in its own FRP partition and will not be deleted when the factory state is restored.
Solution:
1. Connect device to a Wi-Fi and Internet access.
2. Before confirming "Next", select another hotspot here
3. Go to "Advanced Settings" and change the proxy settings of any hotspot to Manual.
4. In the text input field of the proxy settings you enter now any word: e.g. Test
5. Now mark this word and select "Assist" in the context menu.
6. Selecting this "Assist" option opens the Google search application.
7. You can now not only browse the Internet through this search, but also search for and open installed programs.
8. We are looking for Chrome, open the internet browser, go to www.google.com and search for DPC test.
Link: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/sampl...-release/test-dpc-4-0-6-android-apk-download/
9. After downloading this application, go back to the Google search application.
10. Here we enter "Download" to search for the download application.
11. In Downloads we can now find and install the downloaded app.
12. To allow the installation of this .apk, you must allow the installation of "unknown sources" in the settings.
13. Either you go here on the installation itself on "Settings", or you search for "Settings" on the Google search app.
14. After completing the installation of the DPC-Test program, start it with "Open".
15. The app itself is will register as a device owner and now allows us to set up a new Google Account as owner.
16. If this is set up, it will also be included in the FRP partition.
17. In the event of a new factory reset, the device is reset, the DPC-Test program is removed and the device can be freshly set up in the factory settings.
after the takeover of the owner, the reason for blocking the device was not present anymore and the old owner was overwritten. This will be overwritten in the FRP partition aswell with the new account and the old one no longer queried.
You, mister, are my savior! Thank you very much.
Solve works for Lenovo Yoga 3 tablet
Just a big giant thank you! My dad passed away leaving me a Lenovo Yoga 3 tablet, unable to gain access due to information stored in the FRP partition. :highfive:

I marked the word and only that is offered on the top right side is : SELLECT ALL - CUT - COPY.
There is no ASSIST option . I don't know, maybe this tablet on my desk has a newer android version with that option removed...
Is there any other solution? Probably will be helpfull for me as well for someone who will have tjis problem in the future
Thx in advance

Hi. Actually I'm not into this anymore. Could be possible they removed it since it might was reported.

[GUIDE] Ultimate fix for Google Family Link onboarding loop

I've spent an embarrassingly long time on this last weekend and I believe there might be a small group of people that would appreciate the found solution for this issue.
tl;dr: When using opengapps copy https://gitlab.opengapps.org/opengapps/all/-/blob/master/product/overlay/PlayStoreOverlay.apk to /system/product/overlays reboot and the loop should be fixed. (Also make sure to have Family Link Manager and Family Link Helper installed as system apps).
The problem:
When using any custom ROM Google Family Link fails to be setup correctly no matter the opengapps version/size. The error is a loop at the "The Family Link Manager needs to be setup for this device" step and then it leads to a modal dialog "The profile manager is required for google accounts managed with family link.", when you click "Got it" you will be led back to the same page and a click to "Next" opens that same modal dialog again.
The solution:
The Family Link Manager (com.google.android.apps.kids.familylinkmanager) and Family Link Helper (com.google.android.apps.kids.flh) apps needs to be installed as system app (in /system/priv-app/). Besides that the PlayStore app needs specific resources set to make the callback intent to enable the Family Link Manager as Device Admin app work. Funnily enough there was https://gitlab.opengapps.org/opengapps/all/-/merge_requests/51 4 months ago but seemingly nothing copies that PlayStoreOverlay.apk to /system/product/overlays/, doing that manually using TWRP (or anything else that can write to /system/) does fix the loop and makes Family Link work properly.
Credits go to: https://gitlab.com/LineageOS/issues/android/-/issues/3383
I hope this helps somebody. Please move this post to the appropriate forum if it shouldn't live here.
Nexus2kSwiss, thanks for the post. It's the most helpful thing I've found so far. I'm still having a problem with the loop, but I seem to be getting farther along. There's probably some basic detail I'm missing.
Device: Moto G4 Play
ROM: LineageOS 17.1
I found that LineageOS has a built-in root feature that can be toggled. (That's awesome. Too bad it took me so long to find that out.)
My questions:
Does "Family Link Manager" and "Family Link Helper" need to be particular versions? Do they need to match versions? And what about just "Family Link"? That's a whole different version. I'm thinking that it either replaced the other two or it's just the piece you get from the Play Store, while the others may come baked in?
Does the "PlayStoreOverlay.apk" need to be a specific version.
In any case, should I copy all three of the Family Link files to /system/priv-app/?
Here are the steps I've written for myself:
1. enable developer options (tapping on the build number several times)
2. enable ADB developer options
3. enable root in developer options
4. On PC,
adb devices
adb root
adb remount
5.
adb push PlayStoreOverlay.apk /system/product/overlay/PlayStoreOverlay.apk
6.
adb push com.google.android.apps.kids.familylinkmanager.apk /system/priv-app/com.google.android.apps.kids.familylinkmanager.apk
7.
adb push com.google.android.apps.kids.familylinkhelper.apk /system/priv-app/com.google.android.apps.kids.familylinkhelper.apk
8. (not sure if this is needed)
adb push com.google.android.apps.kids.familylink.apk /system/priv-app/com.google.android.apps.kids.familylink.apk
I see the files are there now and I get farther along my journey. I'm able to select which apps should be allowed and it seems like I'm almost done, but I don't get to complete it. I get the message again about the profile manager that keeps popping up and won't let me past it. (I checked again and it actually just crashes at that point.)
Any thoughts?
Thanks.
You definitely need to reboot the device after putting the PlaystoreOverlay as I believe it doesn't get loaded automatically. Family Link Manager and Familylink helper should be the same version (just get the lastest from apkmirror or so).
The Family link app itself is not needed as it's just the UI for managing other devices.
Where do you get stuck now? Do you have gapps nano or bigger installed?
If I understand my original linked lineageos thread correctly there should be builds now available which do copy the PlaystoreOverlay correctly. So maybe using a newer build for your device fixes the issue.

Thanks for the response. Good information!
I think I did the nano gapps install. It's about 400 MB. I'll look for a newer build that has the correct PlayStoreOverlay. Maybe that's the easiest.
I will report back if I get farther along.
Thanks again.
Okay, got it working!
I did a factory reset and wiped everything. Then, I reinstalled LineageOS 17.1 and the latest GApps.
lineage-17.1-20220204-nightly-harpia-signed.zip
open_gapps-arm-10.0-mini-20220204.zip
(I tried to install the "super" GApps, but found that "mini" was the largest bundle that would fit on this device without resizing the partition.)
On first boot-up:
I got an error for Speech Services. (Closed it.)
Connected to wifi.
"Checking for updates..." (automatic)
"Installing updates" (automatic)
"Copy apps & data" - Chose "Don't copy".
Signed in with my kid's account.
Agree to terms.
"Got get your parent" - Selected my (parent) account, logged in. Confirmed 2FA.
"Stick around for what's next" - "Next".
"Checking for updates..." (Again?)
"Please wait"
"Review apps" - This is where I select which apps to restrict for my kid. "Next"
"Google services" - "Accept"
"Protect your phone" - Screen lock settings.
"Access your Assistant with 'Hey Google'" - "Skip"
"Access your Assistant without unlocking your device" - "Skip"
"Anything else?" - "Done for now".
"LineageOS features" - leave "help..." selected. "Next".
"Restore apps and data" - "Skip"
Select "Start".
"Please wait"
"Your devices are connected" - "Next"
"Supervision ready!" - "OK"
It worked! I was beginning to doubt it.
So there you go. LineageOS 17.1 on Moto G4 Play with Open GApps ("mini") allows you to use Family Link / supervision.

Xiaomi 3S lock screen bypass - Chinese native model

Is there a way to bypass the lockscreen on a Xiaomi 3S without doing a reset and losing all the data?
When I was living in China I found out my boss had installed a RAT on my phone and was monitoring my location and accessing my messages/photos etc. When I confronted him about it he changed the lockscreen password and said he wanted 15000rmb from me to unlock it. He told me there was nothing I could do about it because he is Chinese and I'm not so the police will believe him. I ended up just getting a new phone because it wasn't worth the fight to me at the time
That was back in 2016 but I have a bit of an emergency situation and I really need to access some data that's save on this phone
A few points worth mentioning
Google account and "lost my phone" methods are not available to me as it's not an international version so has no google functionality
I don't have a xiaomi account so I can't use the xiaomi versions of the above
I have tried the android lock screen crash method here https://www.oreilly.com/library/vie...98/85928bf7-5c5e-40cb-9a9b-5aa4e75d8032.xhtml but I do not get the option to copy/paste data from this text field. So I'm assuming it's the wrong version of Android
I have tried connecting the phone via USB to a computer that has the Android SDK tools installed and using the command "adb shell rm /data/system/gesture.key" but I get an error "this adb server's $ADB_VENDOR_KEYS is not set".
I've tried at least 10 different android unlocking tool piece of software I can find, but as far as I can tell they all just try to format and I need the data on the phone
