Paperweight? Google Locked from previous owner - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+

AT&T Samsung Galaxy Galaxy6 Edge Plus-ebay.
SM-G928A
This phone is synced with an existing google account so there is no way for me to access my new phone
I've never flashed a custom Rom before but would that allow me to get it functional again?
Its been reset and I've used Odin to flash its original rom after screwing the first one up on accident.
Thanks for the help guys.

not sure if this will help or what

Testing
Using this method was able to pass the initial google sign-in twice after about 16 attempts and multiple reboots on my phone and router. Unfortunately, this little bugger continues to send me right back to the sign-in google screen.
As of now I've set up my phone with a Users first and last name, then unchecked all google permissions and finally gone through At&t's Ready To Go prompts.
I'll continue to try this method after my phone charges.

Mission Success
:good: :victory:
Worked just as entended!
Tips for future use :
Wait for router to completely set up before powering the device on again.
D/C router after one second after agreeing to terms. do not wait for software update to start.

So you probably unlocked it to be used on other carriers as only the H815 can have an unlocked bootloader.
Just a small sugestion. Have you tried to create a new google account and sync with it to see what happens?
tried that and just tried it again with new account still in a loop. i unlocked the bootloader for root now when u unlock the boot loader lg remove warranty
anyone out there that can help.

Did you try clearing cache all google related apps like google service framework ?
what i have done is hardreset not sure how i can clean cache all google related apps like google service framework, as thats the only screen i can see i posted a video of whats happening, i have been on the pgone to google then its not them ring lg, i spoke to lg and emailed them a video waiting for a call back off them.
Maybe try booting into recovery in order to wipe EVERYTHING (and I mean everything possible).
Then boot back into download mode and flash the STOCK .kdz file (the one that your phone came from your carrier with, 10a/b which it was depending on how long you have had your phone).
If that does not work maybe try to build or get a custom AOSP Rom that does not have the GAPPS and see if you can just by-pass the issue all together by booting with having to deal with google apps (you would still need a work around for getting Gapps to work, but at least you would know exactly what the problem is and could boot into a working phone in the mean time).
Weird. Might be that 72 hour sign in feature (cough* bug *cough) thing because it looks like it might be kicking it back on the server side.
1) Did you try signing in on mobile data?
2) Do you have a nandroid, TB, or LG backup that you can restore?
2) Try bypassing the setup screen (keep tapping Next or Skip) and just get to the home screen. Then goto Settings ---> Accounts and add your account. This way you can get a usable device.
ive tried STOCK .kdz 10a/10b/10c
i dont have a nand backup
ive tryed using other wifi and my mobile internet.
google say its not them and im still waiting for lg to even look at the video they asked for..
is there any roms even out there for the g4 i cant find any. over a week now with out my g4.
AOSP Rom i wouldnt know where to start on building one i no longer have root or TWRP after flashing kdz
cant get the phone in adb mode developer as i cant get past the wifi screen as seen in video and cant get USB debugging.

Did you buy phone new, from where?
the phone is on a 24 month contract from o2 i got the phone from the carphone warehouse
ive just got off the phone to LG still not looked at the video they asked for i have been told to wait 7 working days WHAT thats gonna be like two weeks with a none working phone.
Weird, it's like you got a refurbished phone, and the old google account was not removed the correct way (remove google account before the phone is reset). If you reset phone without removing your account you get exactly what has happened to your phone. I see it all the time on the Nexus 6 forum.

Verify Your Account VS986 G4

Hi everyone,
So my Verizon G4 VS986 recently had a bootloop issue and was sent in to LG to fix the phone. They sent it back and what they said they did was to replace the flash memory. Obviously the phone has been reset and all my data is wiped as warned before I sent the phone in. The phone now boots up but I'm stuck at verify your account. I logged in to my google account on this phone and after two step verification was a success, I still cannot move forward and am stuck at the verify your account.
I looked into this issue online and found that this is part of the Factory Reset Protection built into 5.1. In either case, I did not change my password to my google account at all, it is still the same password, so the 72 hour wait rule shouldn't apply here at all. I also can't bypass the protection either since some of the methods require that you go into the Accessibility as seen here through this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/tut-bypass-lg-lock-google-account-t3223518 . My issue is that that Accessibility menu is not present on the initial screen, only language and moving forward.
So what are my options now? Contact LG about my issue or is there a way I can contact Google? Is it possible that the original account information is stored on the flash memory which LG replaced and now the account I need to log in is of some different user? If that's the case, am I forever stuck on this screen and this phone is effectively dead? Or is there something I can do that I haven't discovered yet? If anyone could help, it'd be a great help, thank you.

Since no one has the answer, I'll chime in on my resolution. Call LG, send the phone back in, and they will get it fixed. In my case, they changed the motherboard this time, not only the flash memory. After that, no more verify your account issues. Still was in warranty, not sure if you get a bootloop out of warranty would they still fix it without charging you.

Sprint Galaxy S6 FRP Locked (HELP!!!!)

I was recently sold a Sprint Galaxy S6 on Ebay. I got the phone earlier today and im having some trouble. When I turn the phone on it goes straight to some google verification thing. It says I need to enter a previously synced gmail account . Which I obviously do not know. I believe the previous owner did not remove the synced email and just reset the phone without thinking about it. So now im stuck with a phone that is unable to function. Anyway I was curious to see if there was a way to get past this FRP lock that im stuck with. Thanks again. Any suggestion will help.
You have to turn on oem unlocking in developer options. Otherwise the lock will trigger after a reboot on a modified system. To fix it you first need to flash back to stock.
even in stock rom,you can't use the phone
just ask the old owner for google account to unlock it
i got a solution

LG AT&T V520 Stuck on FRP After Nougat Update.

I updated my Tablet LG AT&T V520 (B3) to Nougat with LG UP..
Firmware update Succeeded.
when entering my Gmail user/password it resulted the Error message : Unable to Sign to the Account since i changed the password , wait 24 hours and try again.
well i didn't change my password.
i tried re flash the firmware still no luck.
i tried changing my password and wait 24 hours . not working.
i tried re flash Android 6 with LG UP but flashing stuck on GPT (i guess the file system structure changed.)
any help will be great.
Thank you
Bypassing FRP even if it's your own legally purchased device is not allowed to be explained here as for all the good it would do for those of us stuck with this device, it'd also be used by thieves or worse by repair centers to turn an unearned profit.
There is a way to return limited use to the device that is covered step by step on youtube it's time consuming and a pain in the arse as anything that triggers google play wipes and resets my device but it's better than nothing.
*There is also a step by step that can get you back to full use, if you follow the actions to a T you'll obtain full access again, that however is upto you to find as it's bypassing the anti-theft utility put in place by google.
Sorry for the necro Just wanted to supply the answers I've gotten after months of fighting this device. I would be more specific but I'd likely be crossing the gray area line.
Any way To get Firmware for this tablet ?

Locked out of Galaxy S7 - out of options

Hi all! Sorry my first post is begging for help. Anyway.
In the midst of setting up fingerpint recognition on my S7, I was prompted for my PIN. By whatever ****ery, the PIN I have used for months and entered during setup stopped working. I have submitted this to Samsung. This wasn't a problem until my phone died and now requires a PIN instead of print upon unlock.
I have rooted all of my phones previously and searched the whole goddamn forum for a solution. USB debugging is turned off, the phone is not rooted, everything is bone stock. I have the Verizon (Exynos) variant.
I have tried all solutions from the most recent thread I could find but to no avail:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2620456
My only idea is to try to use Heimdall (I'm on Linux) to root and flash stock Android or something in hopes that this might save my user data but replace the OS. When I've tried finding my device using ADB through terminal I only get "unauthorized," presumably I need to unlock my phone first to turn on USB debugging/media transfer. Maybe there is a way to turn on ADB through recovery mode but I'm not sure. Google Device Manager only locks my phone but does not provide a new password. I only need the pictures but Google Photos does not back them up in the background, only if I'm able to unlock the phone and open the app up. I took all precautions to stop this from happening. These pictures are vital to my job. Please help.
