Hi everybody,
I did just purchased a Galaxy S2 I9100... A month ago or so.
And I can remember me to have sign up to a Samsung Account, as asked when I first started the device or maybe as I tried SamsungApp.
But I forgot my Password and I don't remember it asked me for a username...
And I didn't get any email as confirmation or so... !!! And that really weird... I find.
I have my phone, my email adress, and every thing, but just this username is missing and this damn password... I even still know the date on which I registered !!!
I though they would be some recover password functionnality somewhere...
But firstly I wasn't able to find any mention of a Samsung Account on my phone, except in the "Accout and Sync" part of the settings, which doesn't help me much as it does just confirmed that I once created a Samsung account
So, did you know some workaround to get my username back ? or maybe where I can find a password recovery function ?
I tried it with this homepage : innovator.samsungmobile.com but it just said me that my "email adress was already in the system" and that if I wanna get my password back, I need to give my username...
So what could I possibly do ?
I would be pleased to be able to log somewhere directly from my phone, as this account is actually registered in the phone... Somewhere where I could see my username would be the best...
And please don't say me "erease your samsung account and create a new one" because I don't want to be registered anywhere without having access to my profile with this email address !!! It's important for me to have control over this one...
And could also somebody explains me why we need such an account ???
Sorry for my bad english, I'm a French-speaking personne.
Username = the e-mail address, as far as i know.
I believe you got the confirmation mail in your gmail inbox. Go ahead and check that
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Well, I'm sure it's not the case : I have double checked and I didn't get any email at all !!! That's unbelivable, but it's maybe gone to the spam, and as I didn't checked it for a month at least, it must have been deleted... Anyway, nothing samsung's related, either in my gmail inbox, nor in the spam...
Any other tips ?
PS : username must be between 4 and 12 char... and my email adresse is bigger as that ^^' I've try it, cutting the 13,14 and 15th char, but it didn't work
Strange, if i wanna log into Samsung Apps it definetely says e-mail and password, nothing about a username. Don't know what username you are talking about Try logging in from your pc and see for yourself: http://www.samsungapps.com/
OMG, I'm really silly ! I did obviously give a false birthday to samsung, ( because I don't like to give any information about me to anyone...) But I did it in such an hurry, wanting to use my phone, that I forgot which false birthday I gave... And I didn't give the same as I normally do...I'm cursed, no way to explain how I was able firstly to forget my password and now the birthday I gave... well, I was certainly too happy top get my phone, I did everything in a hurry and forgot it directly, first timer it happen to me. well I guess I don't really need to have those login as my phone has it in its memory and if I do a reset or flash some new rom, I well still be able to create a new account...but it's quite disturbing, I find : I know I have an account, my phone is linked with it, but I'm unable to access my account xD
Btw, it has been little over one hour that I began surfing on the web using my phone through my wifi network and it's (the phone)now under 35% of remaining battery and the back it's really really hot... It's abnormal, isn't it ?
Hi Guys
Newbie here
I have a problem which i was hoping someone here could help. I have a GalaxyTab 10.1 and use it for work, presentation etc. I have a website which I use for some of my project management, and since I haven't used it for about 4 month, I actually forgot what the password is. I could retrieve it by using forgot password via email, but the old email address I stored in there no longer exist. I contacted the webhost (not much of a help) and they said it's privacy, unless email working, they can't do much.
Now whenever I visit the website, the username and password field is actually automatically filled up. password is in ********, when i click log in, it says you have to repeat the password again, which is where i get stuck.
Someone mentioned that there is an app which i can browse through all the password saved in the web explore and that might solve my problem.
Any suggestions?
Thanks guy, appreciated heaps!!
My son committed suicide in September and his phone was found near his body. He put a pin lock on his phone. I've tried two of the 5 times available to open the phone with no success. I stopped by a local phone service business who directed me to this site suggesting someone might be able to help.
Initially, I was desperate to open the phone thinking there might be a clue as to why he ended his own life. We had no idea he was considering such an act. Since then I've had second thoughts about trying to open his phone, yet, I can't help but wonder if he might have left a note on the phone.
The phone is a Samsung Galaxy S7.
I've just joined this group to see if someone can help. I look forward to hearing from you experts on the possibilities.
Hi , if it was adb enabled you can remove pin code by following this method .

Opening PIN locked phone of deceased son
Thanks for the suggestion. I started to review the full video but confess that I stopped after it appeared to assume I could log into my son's "Gmail" account which I cannot do. I reached out to Goggle and of course the won't help me log into the account. They might provide me some of the content of his emails.
At this, I have no way of accessing any email accounts with either Samsung or Google's Gmail in order to help open up the phone.
Frankly, I'll know within minutes whether there is something he left for us, his parents. If it help make anyone comfortable in helping me I could provide my son's death certificate minus social security numbers and other security risk data. I doubt you it would be useful but it's a form of proof at least that I'm not trying to break into just anyone's phone.

There is a way to remove Google Account by using twrp Recovery image for your device .
Search on the internet twrp recovery for your Model and instruction how to flash twrp recovery .
Once you install custom twrp recovery go to:
data/system/ and delete
Accounts.db
now reboot
You are done
twrp recovery question
If I go through the twrp process you describe will it leave the data that's on the phone intact? It would be nice if the phone still had access to the gmail account my son had. It sounds as if the process you recommend will disassociate the phone from his gmail account. Is that right.
Is this the only way to disable the pin lock which is all I want to do.

Hello all! I come with a serious problem:
I bought a used "Huawei Mate 10 Pro" from a guy at a classified ad portal... because he offered to meet me near my work to buy the phone i dont have his contact details.
Now i found out that google account lock FRP is active and i dont know his account details! I cant even contact the seller!
I already tried some tutorials to get rid of the google account lock but no tut works because i have the mate 10 pro which has NO SD CARD slot :crying:
All tutorials where no sd card is needed doesnt work because talkback version is too high (6.0) and prevents opening a browser by tapping "privacy policy"
Is there any way to get rid of this ****** account lock? ... it is not even possible to call or mail google to be unlocked again!
Thank you very much in advance!
JP
