FAQ

What is the FRP code?

FRP (Factory Reset Protection) is a security verification mechanism designed to prevent unauthorized access. It is triggered when your Android device is factory reset from an "untrusted" environment—like the hardware Recovery Mode—instead of through the official "Settings" menu. After the reset is complete, the device will force the user to verify their identity by inputting the credentials (email and password) of the Google Account that was previously synced to it. If the correct credentials cannot be provided, the device remains locked.

How to turn off frp lock after factory reset?

You cannot turn off the FRP lock after a factory reset; it must be disabled before the reset to prevent it from activating. If you are the legitimate owner and want to disable FRP before wiping your device, follow these steps:

Does Google have a tool to unlock accounts?

For account access issues, Google's only official tool is its "Account Recovery" process. This process is not an "unlocker"; it is a way for legitimate users to regain access to their accounts.

If you are unable to pass FRP verification because you forgot your password, Google's intended solution is for you to:

As long as you can successfully recover the account (i.e., reset its password), you can then use the new password to sign in on the FRP-locked device. Google does not provide any way to "skip" this verification step.

Is FRP bypass legal?

The legal question of bypassing FRP has one clear dividing line: Are you the device's true owner?

On Your Own Device: If you own the device but are locked out (due to a forgotten password or acquiring a used phone that wasn't properly reset), taking steps to bypass FRP to regain access to your property is typically not a legal issue. This falls under your right to use and modify your own property.

On Someone Else's Device: It is strictly prohibited to perform an FRP bypass on a device you do not have permission to access, especially one from a questionable source. This action likely violates software terms of service and could also break local laws regarding theft, possession of stolen property, or unauthorized computer access.
