I did a hard reset, I don't remember my Google account. How to Bypass Linked Google Account on Samsung

Sometimes Android gives us surprises that are difficult to give an unambiguous assessment of: on the one hand, innovation is useful, but on the other hand, it can cause a lot of problems.

As you probably already understood, it happens after resetting the device to factory settings, and, regardless of whether the user resets the Google account, or the device itself performed it after flashing. The developers position this function as information protection in case of theft or loss of a smartphone. It is clear that the thief deserves it, but why do the owners suffer?

There are only two of them, they take up very little space - less than 10MB, and you need to copy them first to your computer.

This is where all the misadventures end - now you know how to bypass the Google account after resetting the settings, but we still recommend writing down the data of the new account somewhere so as not to go through the whole procedure again when the smartphone is reset to factory settings again. AND one more little tip: If you did not reset your Google account and you unlocked someone else's Huawei device using your own Google account data in the unlocking process, delete it from the unlocked device.

On the phone (samsung a5) the glass was replaced and the phone was reset, photos and videos disappeared. Is it possible to recover and how? Tried through your program - it did not work.

Answer. Curious to know what recovery programs you used. The question also arises, where did you look for the deleted data - in the internal memory or on the sd card. As it was written above, a factory reset erases internal memory, so you will need utilities like DiskDigger for Android. Another recovery method is through creating a snapshot of internal memory and then searching for files on it.

I reset the phone to factory settings, but it did not help ... clearing the cache in the camera settings and reset her data, but all my efforts were even, nothing helped.I went to the service center, they said that they did not have the equipment to disassemble and see what was wrong with the phone, and in return they could send it to Moscow for repair, but it will take weeks or more I don't need it Is it possible that if I roll back the phone to previous version OS, that is, on 6.0, since I have 7.0.

Answer. Log in and check if the camera is working. This will help to determine if additional applications installed by you or with the firmware affect the camera.

Perhaps you are using custom firmware - if so, we advise you to find alternative versions or reflash the phone to the official firmware.

If resetting to factory settings really did not help, you need to contact a Samsung service center or, as you mentioned, send it to Moscow for repair.

Phone reset to factory settings, how to recover data from phone? Tried through applications from Google Play, almost all of them require root. What is it and how to get it?

Answer. Root access (or superuser rights) gives recovery programs access to the Android file system with full control, including deleting and overwriting files. Although, in fact, recovery programs only need access in read mode.

Even if you find an application that does not require root, the chances of recovery will be extremely small. Try installing KingoRoot apps (installing root in a few steps) and DiskDigger for Android, it should work.

After resetting the Prestigio NK3, the system writes that the sd card is not supported and offers to format it. The reset was carried out with the card removed. There is a lot of necessary data, tell me if there is a solution?

Answer. Most likely, hard reset in no way affected the safety of data on the memory card. If you removed the memory card while other files were being written to it from the phone, the file table of the sd card could be damaged. You need to connect it to a computer or laptop through a card reader, check for reading errors using a standard Windows utility. If the bugs are fixed, the sd card should open on the phone. If not, Recuva or DiskDigger with Dig Deep mode should find all files.

My wife did a hard reset on a Samsung Grand 2 Duo without making a backup. Photos and music are not so important, all phone contacts were lost and application data could not be restored from the Play Market. In all applications, everything had to start over. Can you please tell me how to restore it?

Answer. The likelihood of recovering user data from applications depends on each application individually. So, if the user data was stored on the sd card, then you can recover the data. Otherwise, after a hard reset, you need to scan internal memory in an attempt to find every single application file (the probability of doing this is quite small).

Phone contacts can be imported from a SIM card - of course, if you take care of a backup copy of contacts in advance. Check if the contacts have been synced with your Google account and the Contacts service assigned to it.
