I am completely new to this community. But, I have a Samsung galaxy A10; that is currently locked and can not be unlocked, as no one knows the password or the details for the google account that is connected to it. I don't want to have to pay to have it unlocked. So, I was wondering if there is anyway to unlock the phone without it. I have tried to factory reset it but that just brings me back to a screen saying I have to input a password or log into a google account to continue. So any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
never mind I figured it out this tutorial told me how.(you do not need a sim card by the way)

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.
It might be a stupid question, but I am curious.
I got my Optimus One unlocked with a code purchased off ebay. But, I need to restore it to factory settings to delete the first google account that was established with the phone so I can establish a google account for my son as the default. But if I reset it, will it relock the phone back to its own brand? If so, do I need to get a new unlock code or will the code they sent me still work?
Thanks
A google search gave me the answer..
No. The phone will remain unlocked.
When you unlock a phone to all networks it can not be locked again. Its not reversible.
So you are safe.
hit thanks button if i helped you.
Thanks for the answer.
I finally got the OEM unlock option back on my phone.
I had to restore Stock ROM and set up only Samsung account and no backup sync. And there it is! But it says bootloader already unlocked.
How can I Lock it again so I atleast can use Google pay? I know Samsung pay is lost. but I remember someone wrote they were able to Lock it again. searched forever but cant find the thread!
Hey guys I recently bought a phone and it turns out to be google account locked. I managed to find a combination file to flash it but it doesn't match the firmware.
The firmware is G965USQU3BRK1, and the carrier is sprint.
The combination file I flashed is COMBINATION_FAC_FA80_G965USQU3ARG2_FACFAC_CL13230190_QB18909595_REV01_user_mid_noship_MULTI_CERT.tar and it resulted in the picture below.

Sounds like a stolen one? Even if you bypass it original owner might have blocked it on network. So you might not be able to use it.

FRP lock is an anti-theft measure and I doubt discussions circumventing it is allowed here (i.e. if they don't allow discussions of carrier unlocking financed phones, how would FRP bypass of a second hand phone someone bought be allowed?).
Your only real option is getting the person whom has the Google account last used on the phone to sign in with the Google account used on the phone. Then after signing in with the Google account perform a factory data reset of the device. After the factory data reset the FRP lock is deactivated.
Otherwise the other option is to return the phone and get your money back.
Like the title says, my father just passed and we're locked out of his phone.
Don't want to factory reset the phone because all of his accounts are on there in apps and we're not able to figure out if we missed anything. Worried about upcoming bills and then any stocks or trades he did only in apps.
Currently the phone is requiring a pattern unlock and I've unsuccessfully been able to guess it so it kind of locked us out of doing anything. Can't even power off or reset it.
It's also saying "unlock the phone to use fingerprints." Does that mean even if we were to somehow guess the pattern would we still need the fingerprint to open the phone?
Is there a way we can bypass any of this? I looked into some programs and downloaded them but they all said they would erase the data if we removed the pattern unlock.
I have access to his Gmail via a tablet that we knew the pin code for but haven't been able to reset the password just yet. Not sure if having the google account password available will help us unlock the phone or not?
Any help or links to tutorials would greatly be appreciated.
By sheer luck I was able to guess the swipe unlock pattern so the phone is now unlocked for me. Mods can delete this thread if they want.
