[Nexus 6  General] ThePsychicSaw:
yeah so I did a backup (first time ever, I thought it was for my content on the phone like pictures, texts, videos, which is why I never did it because I don't care about keep that stuff)

then flashed my rom and gapps like I've always done

then ran into the google account issue, which I detailed in the prior post up there

so I thought maybe its because i did that backup, here ill go back and wipe and reinstall again

so I went back into twrp, I did advanced wipe (dalvik cache, system, data, internal storage, cache)

then usb to computer to move my chroma zip over again

everything installed fine, but got to the same google account login error
[Nexus 6  General] Droidphilev:
This should work:

-Restore this backup

-it will complain that it cant login to your account. change password

-enable developer options if its not enabled.

-in developer options search for "OEM unlocking" and enable it.

-flash any rom you like. so called "device protection" and 72 hours waiting is gone.

EDIT: with "change password" i mean of course in the rom, not in your account.
[Nexus 6  General] ThePsychicSaw:
there is no backup to restore, sorry if that was confusing, I did a full advanced wipe when I first ran into that login error (since that had never happened to me before)
[Nexus 6  General] Droidphilev:
AH, ok. i understood you wrong. Nothing you can do but wiat for the 72 hours but nevertheless: keep your bootloader unlocked AND keep the OEM unlocking thing enabled. You won't have this problem again.

BTW: "OEM unlocking" stays enabled when wiping and flashing other roms. Tis settings seems to be safed somewhere else.
[Nexus 6  General] ThePsychicSaw:
are you sure?

Not that I had a specific reason to, again I was just lost on why this one time didnt work, but when I went back into the terminal (command on my computer) it said that OEM unlocking was not enabled.

Kind of ridiculous I'm without a perfectly working new phone that has only been on my verizon account with only my google account for 72 hours because google thinks its stolen, a feature I never asked for. I know the password to this account, I can prove my ownership of this phone in every which way, I can log onto my google account anywhere else, and can prove so on all my devices. I mean that is utterly ridiculous, and that's the BEST CASE SCENARIO. Theres no guarantee that this works in 72 hours, at least not in my head.

Anyways thank you for your input. really, sorry for ranting.
[Nexus 6  General] Droidphilev:
I'm not sure, i'm VERY sure. :)

It will work in 72 hours. I had this too before that's why i'm sure. Apart from being able to unlock the bootloader enabling "OEM unlocking" also disables "device protection". You will also get a popup saying this when you enable it. If you do so and flash roms the very first login (the one you can't get arround) will be gone and the second login (like on the old days) only appears. I flash every rom i can find using multirom (sometimes 3 a day) so i guess you can be sure of this :)
[Nexus 6  General] yurikoles:
What about recovery logs? Is there any evidence that I had unlocked bootloader before re-lock?
[Nexus 6  General] ocizer:
Status of bootloader

does following these steps re-lock my bootloader and clear out any flags that were set when i unlocked my bootloader

so that motorola doesnt know that the device was modified and reject my warranty :confused:
[Nexus 6  General] Droidphilev:
I guess so, yes. If even unlocking is enough for your warranty to be rejected. In the EU it's no problem AFAIK.
[Nexus 6  General] ocizer:
Coming from a Sony Z series I'm assuming it's the same with the nexus also but if Motorola is not concerned about the bootloader being unlocked and honors my warranty if something goes wrong thats awesome
[Nexus 6  General] stangri:
Still applies. Moreover I don't think you can bypass this check with unlocked bootloader and here's why.

I've received a brand new N6 last week. Proceeded to unlock the bootloader, flash MRA58R, set up my account and then flash the modified boot and SuperSU. Then decided I'd rather have systemless root so I just reflashed the stock image again and when it booted up I was prompted to enter credentials for the last account used on the phone (well, my own).

So it doesn't seem that unlocking the bootloader or flashing the stock system image will get you out of the prompt for credentials of the last used Google account unless you follow the procedures in the first post.
[Nexus 6  General] Droidphilev:
Hi,

You are wrong :)

Keeping the setting "OEM unlocking" in developer options enabled will disable the prompt. There's only the normal way of login but 'Device Protection' isn't there anymore. Enable the setting and read the popup that you get :)

[Nexus 6  General] yellowman82:
A friend of mine found an at&t nexus 6 on the streets face down in its case. The phone was still active with the sim still active and such and mind you the phone belong to someone from Virginia because of the area code and we are in Miami. The phone had a pin lock but he went through recovery and did a factory reset but couldn't get bypass the Google account sign in screen because it needed the owners Google account.

He gave me the phone and I did him the favor and bypass that step with a few tricks and mind you the phone was on the latest software with the February patches which means Google still needs to work on that security patch because it was very simple to bypass that get to the about phone option to get the development options out and do a factory reset which the phone was brand new again and my friend was able to sign in with his Google account.
[Nexus 6  General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
And your friend didn't even try to return the device to its original owner.

Pathetic.
[Nexus 6  General] biglil1:
+1
[Nexus 6  General] yellowman82:
Even if he did he wouldn't be able to find the original owner. 1. We live in Miami and this past weekend was an art festival type besil down here and the owner is from Virginia since it's a Virginia area code so either that person was out here visiting or moved down here.

2. He found the phone on the streets close by the sidewalk and the phone had a pin locked code so he couldn't even get in it even if he wanted to call the persons relatives or someone to be able to return the phone he actually even waited to see if the owner would call their own phone but no dice on that. So after 2 and a half days of waiting he factory reset it which erases everything but he's an old guy that doesn't know about rooting and such things like that he thought doing that would just take out the screen lock pin.

3. Since he did that there was actually no way now to even get anyone from his contact list so yea well since he can't really return the phone and the person didn't even try to call their own phone back just showed how bad they didn't want the phone back so don't go wasting your energy on calling anyone pathetic before knowing the whole story or situation because I didn't explain the whole thing in my last post because my main focus was just to prove that one can actually bypass the Google account screen easily by doing some web research.
[Nexus 6  General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Your friend knew what carrier the owner was using since there was a SIM card present. The IMEI of the phone is located in the SIM card tray. Your friend could have taken the phone to the carrier, explained the situation, and let the carrier reunite the phone with its owner. Instead he saw the phone, thought "Ooh. Free phone!" and brought it to you since you knew a method of bypassing the Google account lockout.

Your friend is guilty of theft. You're guilty of aiding and abetting a crime. No amount of rationalization changes that. End of story.

[Nexus 6  General] jimbomodder:
Ok quick question, if I choose to sell my N6 will these steps do, ( currently rooted on custom ROM), boot to twrp, fully format entire phone, reboot to bootloader and flash stock. That it?
[Nexus 6  General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
You'll need to remove the device from your account​, which you can do from any computer. Other than that, relock the bootloader (optional) after flashing back to stock.
[Nexus 6  General] jimbomodder:
Ok thanks, not that I want to seek yet. Currently rebuilding a broken one I got off eBay, checked imei and it's clean but it stuck on "cannot verify boot img"
[Nexus 6  General] ktmom:
Do you have a SIM installed in the phone that won't boot? If so, try taking it out (tray and all) and then try.
[Nexus 6  General] jimbomodder:
No, it actually came in pieces, I had to take battery from my DD and put in, it boots right to bootloader, I've tried reflashing stock but it fails as bootloader is locked. I used wugs tool on pc to unlock the bootloader which it passes and reboots back to bootloader but says it's unlocked. If I flash twrp it boots to recovery buts asks for decryption code which I don't know, I've not tried side loading an ota img yet but that's for when new battery arrives. I've ordered all new case, SIM tray( I'm aware of imei location) and a used motherboard so if I can't get it working then I'll change motherboard. Spent 50 on parts and £30 on original phone price, and once all that's sorted it just needs new speaker covers and front glass and I got a fully working N6 for about £120-130 which ain't bad, ( all be it the long hard way )
[Nexus 6  General] ryaniskira:
Just stop

The data actually is stored in a partition not handled by TWRP. In fact even a bootloader unlock doesn't wipe that partition, and in fact I decided to test this out when I unlocked my Nexus 6p and it wouldn't accept any Google account other than mine. This data is stored on the FRP partition.
[Nexus 6  General] Namuh:
I was rooted on PureNexus ROM, with TWRP recovery. All I did was flash the newest stock image, factory reset and locked the bootloader via fastboot afterwards...I never removed my pin, fingerprint, or Google account....it is not asking me to log in to my Google account. I'm using the phone, stock on 7.1.2 with out logging in to my Google account. I did have the problem of being locked out of a refurbished 6P Google sent me last week though so I'm having to send that one back. Also, the lock out is only for 24 hours now, not 72. But that doesn't matter if you still don't have the ex-users log in details
[Nexus 6  General] :
Please note that this guide is outdated as it was intended for the release of Android 5.1x. It hasn't been updated for newer software because the OP is lazy and no longer owns the device. Rumor has it, he's even a Samsung fanboi nao. Disgusting, if you ask me. He haz betrayed the nexus brotherhood. : pitchforks :
[Nexus 6  General] madmartian:
This does NOT work. You must remove the account from the phone on the phone itself. I learned this from experience. The REMOVE button below the phone in your online google account is useless for this.

Also, flashing stock ROM does NOT fix this problem. I used NRT to flash stock and unroot and relock the bootloader. Still wants my google password. Buyer is sending me the phone back. :(
[Nexus 6  General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
[MENTION=697071]madmartian[/MENTION]: Multiple people on this forum would disagree with you. However, it is possible that with the release of Android 8.0 Google changed things on their end. It's of little consequence to me: I don't sell my devices, and used devices I buy solely off Swappa.
[HTC Rezound] happyharvick:
I have a Rezound that is not active. It just gets used around the house on wifi for checking email, facebook, and to control the wifi thermostat. I would like to get the latest OTA but cannot do it from the phone as it does not have an active sim. I don't really want to root the phone. I did the PH98IMG zip method to get 4.03.605.2 but it seams a little slow and it is my understanding that there is a new version of 4.05 or perhaps newer OTA... Does anyone have a link to a zip of the OTA that I can download? :confused:

Thanks for the help!
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Well, your in a bad spot actually... 4.3.605.2 does not have an upgrade path at all, there is no OTA from it, or to it for that matter... it was an unofficial leaked firmware that is not supported in the standard software streams. Even if it was active on Verizon, it would never see an upgrade... ever.

You have 3 choices here:

1) S-OFF the device and get back to an official software build and manually OTA up (See the instructions for Full Downgrade/Upgrade here)

2) Assuming you are already Hboot unlocked, flash a custom ROM or a stock-ish ROM, there is a pre-rooted 4.5.605.14 ROM in the dev section

3) Stick with what you got, to be honest the ROM you have is pretty stable.
[HTC Rezound] happyharvick:
Thanks for taking the time to reply but I am not sure what you are referring to by "s-off" or hboot unlocked"

Can you point me in the right direction to learn a little more? :confused:

Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Hboot unlock is a process which is done via htcdev.com, it unlocks the phone to allow custom ROMs and recovery... Go to their site for more details or check out any of several YouTube videos.

S-Off is a means of turning off all security checks in the device, such as flashing an older RUU to downgrade. It is accomplished after Hboot unlock with a tool like RumRunner, check out rumrunner.us for more info.

If you are completely unfamiliar with unlocking, rooting, romming, or that kind of stuff, Google can be your friend here to learn the ins and outs, plus the sticky threads in the Rezound sections here.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] ShadowGX:
Upgrading from a very buggy Galaxy S4 here. (The bugs are my fault and I'm not savvy enough to fix them, so I just deal with them.) Have a few questions about which version of the S6 I should get because I'm seeing a lot of info and I'm not really sure what all of it means, so hopefully you guys can give me straight and simple answers.

1. I'm currently on Straight Talk using AT&T. However, Verizon is overall the best in my area, so if I get switched to a new client where AT&T doesn't work I may need to change back to Page Plus quickly. I'm seeing conflicting information on the unlocked versions of these phones, but there does seem to be hope out there that it's possible for some versions to be able to switch between the two easily. Which version do I want if I want to be able to switch between AT&T and Verizon? If you're bored and want to look or know of a handy link where I can buy one of these phones, please feel free to toss it at me. eBay sellers 75% of the time don't seem to know what they're selling when it comes to unlocked phones.

2. An out-of-the-box, working mobile hotspot feature is extremely important to me. My S4 is messed up primarily because my attempt at making the hotspot work didn't go as easily as it was supposed to. I've seen on these forums that some users are saying that at least the Verizon version will work if you use FoxFi, no rooting or tether file hacking required (so no risk of me breaking my phone, yay). I have the paid version of FoxFi already, so that's good news if it's true. Confirm/deny and is the same true for the AT&T version if I had to get that instead?

In case it makes any difference: I'm not really set on getting the Edge if I have to get the regular S6 for the above features, I just couldn't decide which forum to post this in.

Thanks all! :D

Hi all,

Having some real trouble with this app, for some reason it will not work on my rooted nexus 10. I'd really love to use it to get my screen to turn off when connected to hdmi.

I've selected the settings to deactivate the screen when connected to HDMI but nothing seems to happen. If anyone could help me out it would be much appreciated, I've already tried to contact the developer with no luck. I've already double checked my device is rooted so that doesn't seem to be the issue. It does have a "debugging" function, maybe that would help providing information on whats going on?

Otherwise it seems to be a great app which I would love to get working.

Cheers,

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] s8freak:
You cannot flash ANY CM OR AOSP or custom kernels on your G900A. You cannot downgrade if you've taken the OTA to 5. 0

You might have to take it to Best Buy or a corporate warranty center and they can refresh 5.0

Or go here and follow the instructions

Download the OTA zip and transfer it to your ex SD card reboot to factory recovery then scroll down to install from ex SD navigate to where you have zip stored select it then let it install
