Hi,
I have an unlocked T-Mo Vibrant. I bought it from a guy from Craigslist. I didn't had the time to remove the primary account of the previous owner.I cant access the market for this reason.
What i need to do so that i can use my own Google account as the primary account?
If i do a hard reset will the phone again be locked to T-Mo?It is running the official 2.1update1.
I am currently in india, so cant ask the guy again to unlock it for me and i am simply novice in Android though i love my phone .
Thanks,
Suman

Do what I did - except I didn't need to reset the phone, but if you do, you should be ok.
Reset it to factory specs, then use the WiFi to access the market. As long as you have an account ready to register with Google. Get the SGS tool or whatever it is you need and you're set.
I'm no expert but that's how I accessed the Market.
If i reset it to factory settings the phone again wont get locked to the carrier....right?
Is there any other way other than factory resetting to remove the primary account.
hi guys
I changed the sim card from my AT&T Atrix 4G...
when it reboot, it says
''SIM card is removed or changed. Log in your MOTOBLUR account to unlock.''
I register a motoblur account to unlock my phone...
unfortunately, it says
''Your username or password is incorrect.Please check them and try again.''
I had tried several times and it failed. I also check the account on pc and the ID and password are correct.
I can't use the phone...what should i do
I would flash 1.2.6 see if that fixes it. It should fix it. Then just update to what you want to.
AT&T ATRIX - VERSION 2.3.4 ROOTED BL UNLOCKED
Stuck at MotoBlur login (Atrix latest OS version 4.5.9)
Hello:
Have a similar issue with a recent Atrix I purchased unlocked and unaware I couldn't just drop my sim chip in and start using the phone.
Here is the background:
Put my ATT sim in new Atrix.
Noticed the MotoBlur login screen.
Researched how to bypass login (ALT e twice, "blurroff")
setup WiFi connectivity
updated OS from 2.2.2 to 4.5.9
Still get MotoBlur login.
Is there a way to delete the MotoBlur account (which I guess belongs to whoever unlocked the phone)?
Any step by step help would be appreciated.
Thank you.
Im using Alien ROM 4 and not only did it let me bypass the blursetup but I have been using the phone for about a month with NO blur account on it wat all! I have the option still to set up my blur account, but Im not going to and I can use the phone like normal and never have blur on it. I have a blur account, but dont want to use it. So if Alien is an option for you, give that a try!
Thanks for the suggestion about Alien ROM
Any links you can suggest so I can follow step by step for Alien ROM 4?

you have to login .. why were trying to register .. u dont even need a data connection to log in the device when changing sim .. make sure u enter the details correctly.
Was there ever a kitkat stock ROM and was it always 5.1 out of the box? Anyway to down grade or even 5.0 or 5.0.2?

Launched with 5.0.2. Think there are some firmware images in the firmware topic in the General forum. Should be able to downgrade, but I haven't tried it.
I don't think downgrading would work. I updated my XT1521 to Marshmallow, and then tried to roll back to 5.1.1, and the flashing failed every time I tried.

MM -> LP fails, yeah, but LP -> LP might work.
Looking at Post #3 in this topic, the TC downgraded from XT1528 5.1 to 5.0(.2) to mess around with rooting: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e-2015/general/root-t3194165
Additionally, people have downgraded the XT1527 from 5.1 to 5.0.2 in order to restore LTE Band 12 functionality (search "downgrade"): https://www.reddit.com/r/tmobile/comments/39j0qb/psa_motos_51_update_to_the_2015_moto_e_disables/

Hm, maybe. Just in case, look out for any "FAILED" messages while flashing the old firmware - if any, retry that command, or flash back to the newer firmware.
Anyone go through device protection crap? I got a xt1528 from a ebay store that has tons of phones and clean esn. I got it on friday last week and still cant get in. Isnt it just a 72 hr hold or what? Also on the verizon model the message app makes it harder for the workaround and network dialer it dont work esp when youre trying to use this phone as gsm. Not sure how long to wait for the hold though. Do i still need the previous password or email that was synced before i got this phone? I hope not or else this is a brick. Ive factory reset Friday and changed password hoping that would work. Nothing so far

"Device protection"? If it prompts you for a password on bootup even if you factory reset, then it sounds like it was locked remotely by the Android Device Manager service (original owner might have lost it or something, and remotely locked it). If that's the case, return it.
"Message app makes it harder for the workaround"? What workaround? The Verizon model has both the Hangouts message app and Verizon's Message+ app. You can choose which one you want to use.
"network dialer it dont work esp when youre trying to use this phone as gsm"? The dialer works for GSM, you just have to turn on the GSM radio. Follow the instructions in one of these topics:

I cant get adb to be recognized. I have minimal adb and fastboot everytime i try adb says error device not found. I can only get as far as setup wizard i know all the tricks but even the japanese input language is missing in settings language

Have you tried installing the Motorola PC drivers and enabling ADB in Developer Options?
As for the Japanese language input, I see it on my XT1528. It's at the very bottom of the list, right before it loops back around to Bahasa Indonesia. (日本語 Nihongo)
I can't get past setup wizard is what I'm saying. And there is no Japanese input the Google one on the keyboard that everyone refers to to get to the 10 key and privacy policy. I know the ultimate goal is to get into dev options. I've been reading. I only have winime for Japanese input for keyboard. The rest is Korean and so forth. Seems to be a newer phone maybe. Today is the 3rd day maybe by 1pm est it will work. I got the phone Fri at 1 PM and reset and changed password. How can I get adb recognized if I don't have USB debugging enabled or unknown sources for the matter. I can't look inside. Stuck at setup wizard or Google protection sign in. Hangouts don't work in shared screen

Sounds like the issue I mentioned earlier. If you can't make it past initial setup due to it asking for a Google account password, then the phone you bought has been locked by the original owner via the Android Device Manager service. The phone you bought might be lost/stolen or the seller is trying to rip you off. Unless the owner left ADB turned on, there's no way around it. Return it and get a new one.

Install Moto Device Drivers (download from Motorola).
Boot device into fastboot mode (power off, hold Vol Down, power on).
Connect phone to your computer via USB.
Open command line, go to the Minimal ADB and Fastboot folder.
fastboot.exe devices
If it shows your device, you should be able to downgrade, but I have no clue if this will get around the ADM block.
Follow the stock firmware flash instructions in the General forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...e-restore-moto-e-2015-stock-firmware-t3044936
If not list or has a weird listing, you won't be able to flash anything. Return it.
Also, flashing modem does absolutely nothing in regards to getting around an ADM block.
Does anyone here have an extra or unlocked for that matter that they can sell. I have 20.00 i can send to someone honest. I use at&t so either xt1528 or unlocked and as long as not on that crazy 72 hour hold sign in crap. That is why im having this problem in the first place. Thanks PM me. Now at 4 days still cant get into my phone. Am i the only one that doesnt have google japanese input? If i had it i know how to bypass. This must be a newer phone all i have is the winime japanese keyboard and that doesnt do anything for me. Im looking for the a with the squirly line to long press i dont have that. I know the method to get to usb debugging etc and factory reset is the goal. But this thing is a brick in my opinion
Be very careful when buying this phone used I'm going on 10 days still have the Google verification on error device was last reset and synced with another account. Xt1528 does not have the bypass or Japanese input keyboard with the (a) to bypass. I've seen all the videos on this model it don't work. Maybe an earlier kernel or build of 5.0 when it first came out but not 5.1. This is just for xt1528 Android 5.1 you been warned. I have a paperweight now

I"m in the same situation where I can't bypass the account verification on the xt1528 but in my case it isn't secondhand. The owner isn't tech savvy so they asked someone to setup a google playstore account for them. So when there was problem with the phone and the screen blacked out I factory reset the phone. Everything came back but they don't know the google account that was used so now it's stuck during setup. The japanese keyboard trick doesn't work on this model cause it's not the same one in the tutorials but I was able to get to the dialpad by viewing the motorola privacy policy and following the same instruction. My issue is I can't enable the test mode to activate ADB debugging. *#*#4636#*#* doesn't work.

Hi
I bought Redmi Note 3 for my wife 3 days ago, used.
On the phone was LOS 14, but some things like phone calls were not working as it should (the phone call screen would not show up at all), so I decided to flash MIUI.
After reading XDA and internet, I managed to do so, I flashed V9.6.2.0 MHOMIFD, and after booting first time MIUI
I get activation screen.
Mi account was 165***793, and the associated phone number was from the guy who I bought the phone, so I think, I'll just ask him the password, and thats it.
He said, the phone number is correct, but Mi account is not his, his starts with 169***xxx.
He said thats why his friend flashed LOS on the phone, because of this problem.
When I try to reset password i type his phone number, he gets the code, and forward to me, I typed it, and then I reset password.
Try that password on the phone, not working, said wrong username or password.
When I log on miui website with his account, his ID is different then the one on the phone, but his phone number is correct on the phone because it is associated with that ID, but don't have access to that ID.
Is there any way to use this phone normally on MIUI, or how can I get pass this screen, or reset that password, becouse I know that phone number, but MIUI account is different than the one that is tied to that phone number. I would like if there is any 'official' way of geting that password, I am tired of flashing, fastbooting.
I hope you get what I want to say, sorry for my English.

U cant officially unlock coz its already associated with number.
Fasboot flash latest beta miui 10 rom. Unlock unofficially and flash custom oreo or pie rom.
Staying on stock rom will always ask for valid mi acount.
So better unlock unofficiallly on latest miui10 rom.
And use custom rom.
Thank you. I unlock it like this https://in.c.mi.com/thread-857678-1-0.html
