Bypass Google Account Verification on Android
Google Account Verification is a simple, but effective It requires that when you set up a new device, you have to enter your Google account and verify that you’re the owner of that account by clicking through a link in an email. Easy enough.
What most people don’t realize is that, by default, when you set up your Android device with a Google account, the Factory Reset Protection feature is enabled by default. It prevents someone from accessing the device (and therefore any data on the device) after a unless the user knows the last Google username and password that was used to set up the device. So, if you lose your phone or it’s stolen, the person who ends up with it can’t access the device unless they have your login credentials.
That’s great. Until it’s not.
Bypassing Google Account Verification and the FRP lock isn’t as straightforward as opening Settings and topping the right option. Even to turn the option off requires numerous steps. And there’s more than one way to do it. You can:
- Disable FRP.
- Bypass verification by resetting the device (on some devices).
- Bypass verification through a series of maneuvers during setup (on some devices).
- Bypass verification using an APK tool.
Disabling the FRP protection is probably the easiest way to ensure that you don’t have to deal with this issue. It’s also the easiest of the methods available to bypass Google account verification.
Like the method above, this method may allow you to bypass your Google account during the setup process after you reset your device. It’s a little more involved than the method above, but if that doesn’t work, this probably will.
