Hi,
I've been searching everywhere but I cannot find the solution. I'm logged into my account and "find my device" is on. However, when I log into i.mi.com and go to "Find device" it says "No devices, Turn on "Find device" to be able to locate your devices." Furthermore on page settings in i.mi.com it says "Number of connected devices: 0"
I can sync my gallery etc. and I can also view the files. I've already factory reset my phone.
The reason why I want to switch it on and not use a third party app it because I want to unlock the bootloader which is not working either and I think this might be connected.
Could you guys help me?
Account re-registered
Okay, I've found the problem. The problem was my account. I had to completely delete my account (not just sign-out) and re-register again. Afterwards everything worked out just fine.

Have you tried clearing the app's data from settings --> application manager?
What ROM you on? If it's CM based and you have had to add GApps, try reinstalling that. Otherwise backup eveything and factory reset.

Standard ROM that came with the phone (Vodafone UK). Can't clear app data as app is not actually installed yet. Obviously app says its for business users only, which I'm not but phone keeps insisting I install it!

A quick look at the comments on the play store shows quite a few people with the issue.. why not contact google? Or just uninstall it with TB?
One of the comments says the following though: To activate the Policy I have to encrypt the device. To encrypt the device I have to password protect the lock screen with a 6 digit password that includes at least one number!?! Come on Google! who wants to punch in a long password every time they pick up their phone!?
Edit: Have you read this: http://support.google.com/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en-uk&hlrm=en&answer=1056433
This is indeed terrible. Google Apps Device Policy suddenly comes with unclear error message. No clear solution is available. I ahve tried different alternatives:
1-) Uninstall Google Apps Policy server => No luck;
2-) Remove the account from google account, install it again ==> No lock;
I just keep receiving same message: " Action requise" in french for "action required" on account. when I get this Device Policy Server, it just says: Error with registering the account, try again later ...
hello to all, and please pardon me for my bad english.
i bought this i9100 (i9100GSMH) from ebay, from a guy who said "i was unable to find lockscreen sequence".
i was incredibly lucky, found it after some 30-40 attempts, but this is where real problems started.
The device is fully functional, 2.3.3 stock Gingerbread, branded O2, simlocked and contains all the first owner put in, more than 400 images, music, family videos and so on.
Some 7 accounts, like hotmails, two google accounts and, this is fundamental, one samsung account.
it has a valid IMEI and appears not been stolen (i contacted the girl some 10 days ago, still waiting for a reply)
well it contains also two emails from two guys who evidently bought this device and wrote to her trying to obtain samsung account's password
well, long story short: if i try to uncheck "remote functions" it prompts me with a password request (that samsung account)
the same password it ask me if i try "factory data reset". i tried subscribing another samsung account (success) but can't put in the phone (it says there is already one)
examples: i delete all images and music, accounts, various apps (some 7 gigabytes) and reboot: everythings returns in his place!
every file i put in the cell disappears if i reboot or if i "format USB storage"
in recovery mode i can't select sd-ext (to install firmware from ext-sd), tried put in DCIM but everything i put in disappears
tried various firmwares with ODIN and official update by kies: they complete successfully their work, but after reboot i have the device in the exact state it was the first time i turned it on:
lockscreen, images, music, videos, accounts, emails, apps returns there, nothing was really never changed nor deleted, everything i copied in the device simply disappeared.
this baffles me, as i read tons of forums and posts about it but everyone says you can factory reset, install firmware at will etc.
this is not the case, someone can help me?
i'm going to ask directly samsung if they can send me the "change password page", i'm running out ideas
well some news, the original owner of the cell emailed me: it isn't stolen nor lost, she sold it.
she gave me also the password (good!) for the samsung account, so i can remove "remote controls"
the password is valid and i can also access the corresponding account on (findmymobile), where there aren't any device registered.
i can delete all accounts on the device but two: this samsung account and one by googlemail.
the samsung account on the phone shows nothing, is empty, i can only select "delete account" but it says i can't because some apps blabla.
the google one is fully working, i mean it receives mail too, and is needed by some apps blabla, i can not delete.
my problem is actually the same described here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1474222)
i think there are only two possibilities:
1 somewhat similar to NAND RW corruption, hardware defect, probably unrecoverable
2 samsung account and/or googlemail accounts are gone ape**it and internal SD is kept in some "security" state i don't even know if one exists.
anyone please?
My phone is a LG L3x (LG E425g) with Android 4.1 JellyBean. I hard reset the phone using the Settings menu but now when I'm setting it up it asks me for a Google account and here starts my problem.
If I said "Later" it ask me "Do you want to add an existing account or create a new one?" (even when I said "later") So I choose "Existing" and I have to log in with my account and it seems it works but then ask me again for the account, but now when I sign in (again) it say "There is already a [email protected] account on this Android device".
No matter what I do, it still appearing the same message. If I try to create a new account I put my name and last name and when I click continue message appears "Unfortunately, Google Account Manager has stopped". I hard reset the phone again but when I get this point the same error occurs. The problem is that I can't do literally nothing with my phone, NOTHING. I can't go to settings, I can't open any app, I can't open notification bar, nothing.
I've already reset the phone again. I create a new Google account on my PC and try to log in but it's the same. Please, don't tell me "Go to Settings..." or something because I can't.
Please help me

That sucks... I would try the hard reset via the built in recovery, which seems like it is only accessible via adb commands, oddly enough. If that doesn't work, then re-flashing the stock firmware might be next.
Finally
Finally I solved my problem =D
I suspected it was a software problem so I installed LG PC Suite and I downloaded the update for my phone (via USB), even when it was asking me for a Google Account.
After the update was completed, the phone restarted and it asked me for a Google Account again, so I put my info for the umpteenth time and finally it worked!!! Now the setting up process is completed and I'm able to access to the Play Store, Settings and other things.
I'll leave this information here in case anyone have the same problem in the future.
Thanks es0tericcha0s for your interest
=D

no solution yet. I guess I will have to contact LG.
i have the same problem, do you find a solution?
Has anyone had this problem solved? I even reset my Google account password and it's not working!
In solution foun yet ?!
I have the same issue
I'm not a tech guru, but I had this problem: I have an old phone with photos that I'm not longer using with data, but I had some locked photos in there and I could not access them when I tried to put in my current gmail password or that pin I remember while using wifi, since it's not using data. Even though I would go on my pc and type in my password/email and log in..it just wasn't registering for this phone.
What worked: 1. Wifi connection---installed all software updates
2. I turned off 2 step verification from my email through my PC
3. I then also turned ON the Allow less secure apps feature
4. After this I was successfully able to sign on to my email account from the email app on my phone.
Then I tried again to put in my current password and email from the locked pictures--- and it signed me on...and allowed me to change my password/pattern/pin and I could then access the pictures.
I hope this helps someone bc this took me over 12 hours to figure out.
I had my phone on airplane mode, I changed temporarily my password from my pc, I put again my true password, I re-enabled wifi on the phone, which warned me of recent changes on the account, I used my password + 2FA: there's still the warning and Android isn't connected!
Then I used Chrome from phone to login into my account and it worked, infact I can see in "recently used device" the phone being in use, but Android is still not connected!
More info:
I'm on Android 4.4.4 (pls no bully), Playservice 11.9.51 (0.38-177350961);
initially I changed the password to safely use Android-x86.org (specifically: "CM-x86 14.1" version), on which I used my account disabling any backup setting AFAIK; quitting that I re-enabled my "true" password, but at first it didn't let me use it because it was recently used, so as suggested elsewhere I changed it 100(!) times (google remembers the last 100 psw used and it won't let you use them anymore);
since then I restarted the phone, and one whole night has passed, but still no luck;
then I changed the password to a never used one and now here I am (I can login on Chrome from my phone, and also on my pc);
the texts I'm receiving (translated in English for you) are: "action for account required" from notification; once tapped it, a system window says to login again, but after I put the password I get a new system window titled "access didn't worked" and (in English this time) "to access your account, you must sign in on the web. Touch next to start browser sign-in", then an SMS is sent for 2FA, I check "don't ask it again", but on use I get again the previous system window ("use brower sign-in"); I've already tried it many times.
1.Try to Reset your phone to Factory Setings (This will wipe all your data so make backup)
2. Then wipe cache partition and reboot normaly your phone and try.

I solved it!
I disabled 2FA and, as suggested elsewhere, I used https://g.co/allowaccess (what it even does?). I don't know if both were necessary, but here I am!
