In the above thread, does this method work with the stock sony Xperia T firmwares
please can you post your firmware version (stock only, no cm, no aokp or custom roms) and let me know
if it worked.
Basically I want to access my wifes phone and check her messages as she has been acting weird
I tried the service menu trick on her phone but it didn't work which means her phone has more up to date firmware i believe
EDIT found this

Just tried that for you, it didn't work; the Emergency dial screen wouldn't accept the *#*#73556673#*#* code.
The lock screen WAS disabled whilst the Demo was active but as pressing the power button to wake the screen was immediately rerunning the Demo I'm sure that would get noticed. (Xperia T firmware 9.1.A.1.141).
Might have time to test out the 2nd link you posted later.

1) Did the demo run?
2) Did you then press home button to go to the home screen?
3) Did you then bring up dialer and type in the demo code again to disable the demo?

In the video when the demo is running he taps it to bring up the home button, did this work on yours?
Thanks v much

1) The Demo ran when the phone was already unlocked and I typed in the code from the dialer - on first run it even prompts you that it will change the screen unlock password.
2) Yes pressing the home button went to the Home screen (at this point if you switch the screen off then back on the Demo reruns).
3) Yes I did.
The code doesn't seem to work at the Emergency Call screen on my Xperia T, or perhaps the phone he's using in the Video doesn't have the most current firmware.

It is possible you can test the zip file method?
I'm on my way to work now, I'll try the 2nd thread a little later. I'll have to try Method B in that thread because I don't currenty have CWM recovery on my phone which is required for Method A using the Zip file.

ahh ok, neither does her phone so that wont work.... never mind thanks for your help
Had a thought what if I flash an older version of firmware which has the service menu security hole?
Would just have simply plug her phone in, flash it, and then let it restart (wiping only cache and dalvik, if they are available in stock recovery)
So she won't lose any of her data and won't be any wiser?
hmmm....

I've tested a similar method on windows that worked on my T on JB.
all it needed was a
adb shell
su
rm /data/system/gesture.key

This of course has limitations, the device needs to be rooted and usb debugging must be enabled

Well I suspected that USB debugging would need to be enabled to use the B Method in that thread you linked and what Matt has said Tally's with this; I've now had time to try and can confirm this.
Matt's commands worked when I substituted 'password.key' instead of 'gesture.key' in the 3rd line (I had a PIN lock set) - 'gesture.key' seems to be for when a pattern lock is set, and 'password.key' for PIN lock.
Method B in that thread is missing the 'su' line that Matt has above, so failed with 'Permission Denied' when trying to delete the .key files - works once you add the su command.
I had recently bought a lg g4 off ebay with FRP lock I was able to bypass the screen using the pop up when you try to sigh in at locations such as McDonalds. I was also able to root the device. the problem I still have is when I try to use any google service it will prompt me to give email. I tried hard reset and when I go to settings there is no way to reset it. And I was also able to unlock the camera

You can unlock your bootloader in dev options and root is the tmo forums, if you get that working you can flash a custom stock rom in twrp and your device won't have any lock I believe, if that doesn't work I'm not quite sure on how to help you further
the only option is use one of the services on ebay. there is many over there offering this service.
can you help me please
here is a solution.

i found same lg and was unable to get into the settings by doing the accessories-talk back etc.......what i did do was enable quickview so that i can dual screen two apps, i went on google and typed settings to this phone, or download the samsung bypass either is fine and takes you to settings......so what you do is once you get into settings go to display and in the top right corner click tab view. then go to home screen and change it to the reg screen. once you do that, go to one drive in your google folder thats standard install. once there it should either give you the option to add and should register your email acct as original user.....i may also add it was rooted as well.
at setup click accessories->enable switch acess->turn on->if you get the screen that gives you the option to use one or two switches click two so you cab select and confirm which button volume + or vol- does when pushed.......-> now now go to the settings of switch access-> assign switches-> and scroll down to overview-> highlight-> either vol+ or vol--> once done go back to setup--->push until you get dual screen option-----and follow my earlier long ass speach.......side note been at it two weeks lmao

Delete (or rename) the following files inside /data/system (note that probably not all of them exist for you, simply delete those you can find):
password.key
pattern.key
basically any .key file in that folder
Using TWRP file manager (its under advanced)
Thanks man. Problem is, I could only see my device on PC if phone was started via twrp. If not, device shows on PC when plugged in but won't show any files.
I have booted phone into recovery, seems that it will let me do that. Is that any help?. Mrs has just come back from work.... Gulp!
Ohhhhh maaaaan. You are the don!!!!!. I'm in now, you sir are a star!. How can I now get the phone back to having password?. Have I buggered it as I deleted the files??

nope just open settings, security and choose a new lock method. might be a bit buggy, if it asks you for an existing pin whilst setting the new lock screen either enter anything or leave it blank. then set your pin hit thanks if i helped

Hmm. Not going so well now. I'm doing the following:
Security> screen lock. 'Confirm pin'. I enter a pin, then either a) press 'OK'... Screen goes back to 'security & fingerprint' screen. Shows 'screenlock none'. Or, if I try to previous then press forward arrow on keypad (rather than pressing OK), it goes to blank screen with left facing arrow at top of screen saying 'choose screen lock'?.
I've also noticed that in security & screenlock screen, it shows 'finger 1' under fingerprint list. Like it still has a fingerprint saved.

Yeah the fingerprint will be saved, i cant remember exactly how i did it (i'm not doing it on my phone as my bank already hate me for being rooted and registering android pay like 20 times a month) - if i remember i enter a pin, then choose either pin again or none, and after none go back to pin. I think that worked, but don't hold me to it - it's easy to recover i just dont have a device in that state to try. I could teamviewer your phone if you want me to and sort it haha. Just have a mess around to see what happens, one combination of that should work. Basically android still thinks you have a pin, but it's physically not there.

Tried every combination of fiddling that I can. Wondered, if I dirty flash copy of OOS 4.02 over current ROM, would it sort it?. Would I lose root & unlocked bootloader etc if I do this?

Is it possible for me to get to those files if i haven't done anything with my phone, i just got drunk and forgot my pattern lock, the fingerprint and everything works perfectly. I tried connecting it to my pc but it doesn't pop up anywhere and just starts charging ;( , pls help
Hi everybody, I don't know if this will help all you but this is what worked for me (Android 6.0.1):
1. On the setup wizard (after factory wipe), connect to internet (wifi/data)
2. Select "Emergency call"
3. Call to any valid number (112 for example)
4. When the calls start swipe to the left on the dialing screen and you will see message and browser displayed (in my case the message method doesn't works).
5. Select browser.
6. Go to google.
7. Search for Package Disabler Pro 9.8
8. Download it and install it.
9. Open it and search for "Samsung account".
10. Click on Clear Data and then Disable.
11. Go back to google and search for QuickShortMaker
12. Install it and open it.
13. Search for "Setup Wizard", it will expand.
14. Select the one with ".setupwizards.SetupExitActivity"
15. Done! You can now use the phone and restart.
Ok after this you can go and check that there is no Samsung account displayed (Settings>Accounts), buuuuut, you can't add it . What I did was:
1. Go back to Package Disabler Pro and enabled "Samsung Account".
2. Then go to Settings>Back up and reset
3. Factory data reset
4. Asked for Samsung account and I inserted my real account.
5. Done, now I can sync with my account.
The oooooooonly issue that I can't figure out it's the way to remove the "Reactivation lock" from Settings>Lock screen and security>Find my mobile.
Well that's all hope it works for you guys.
If this doesn't work for you, you can check out unlockjunky, they will definitely be able to do it.
Good luck!!

What ever you do, absolutely do not dial for example ( 112 )
Turns out 112 will connect you to your local emergency dispatch.....

Mate, you are an absolute legend! I've been searching for 8hrs looking for a solution after hard resetting my phone and being unable to get past the Samsung Account lock afterwards (even though I had the right username & password!) About fifty useless/outdated YT videos & a few hundred websites/forums later - none of which were helpful, I finally stumbled across your post, despite it not showing up 8hrs ago when I came straight to XDA hoping to find a solution first.
I have an improved method for #2, 3 & 4 of your post and will add all relevant info soon (just need some kip now that the panic is over). I'll also expand a little on some details and include further options which worked in my particular case, but all n'all - you're an absolute legend mate and I'd be screwed & still panicking without your shared info. Huge thanks...

You have to dial an emergency number or this trick doesn't work. Its not practical for most folks but if you are worried about dialing an emergency number I'd recommend using a SIM out of a tablet that isn't phone number enabled.

Did you get it figured out I got the edge 6 plus to work fine now it was one of the tougher ones and I've done a few on some newer models what are you stuck on?
I thought the Combination Firmware would reset the FRP lock by default after being installed.
first thank you for sharing ur experience and i want to add
that i done it step by step and it works nicely but still cant remove the reactivation
and here is how iv done it after i bypassed it using ur method
i flashed a lower modem file from stock rom N910VVRU2BOG5 which is 5.0.1
at this point my imei went off
so i went for full flash by N910VVRU2BPA1_N910VVZW2BPA1_N910VVRU2BPA1_HOME. which is 5.1.1 and did full hard reset
then i just signed in with the last Samsung account i used with ur method earlier and it passed so now i can easly remove reactivation mark , unlock and root then make it Arabic .
thx again
Did you ever post up the suggested steps to replace #'s 2-4 in the original post above? I'm not seeing them anyplace. This would be a big help. Thanks.

I successfully used this to gain access to my phone but I believe that if I power cycle it I will be locked out again. Is there any way to remove or change the samsung account now that I am in? The options are greyed out in settings.
ADB and Root.
Hey, I have been working on these for a while keep finding new things each time I try to remove Reactivation Lock. However I was wondering if I show you guys how to enable ADB with RSA Key, and Root the device. Could someone show me how to remove the Reactivation Lock using root. I used other methods on older and newer models, but these S5's are the only ones giving me issues.
After weeks of going mad trying different solutions I've found online, here's what worked 100% for me just last night:
Login to Samsung Account on other device, select Password & Security, enter password then choose Devices. LOG-OUT of your S6 Edge if listed, confirm. Next change password - doesn't matter what, can even change it back afterwards.
Flash Lollipop (I used G925VVRU4BOK7)
Wipe Data/Cache
Boot fresh Stock firmware, enter/confirm network details, at Reactivation Lock prompt, enter user & updated password. Sign-in....
Settings -> Lock Screen & Security -> Find My Mobile. Unselect Reactivation Lock and enter password... voila!
Works for anybody else??

You probably want to make sure you're using the system default dialer app - any app other than the default dialer isn't allowed to execute special codes, in general.
If you have installed a different one (like, say, the Google phone app), switch the default back to the Huawei phone app and try the codes again, from the Huawei phone app. A good one to test with is *#*#4636#*#* which should bring up more detailed network information.
Also: you don't need to post this across half a dozen unrelated topics.

Check settings and make sure it's actually set as the default dialer - even if it's the only dialer app, if it's not explicitly selected, the codes can fail to work.

I even tried to flash. 377 firmware but it also fails. What I am doing wrong I download the update.zip and extract it on SD card dload folder then go into project menu *#2846579#* and update SD card.
Please help
Thanks in advance
Sorry to bring this thread back to life. But I was fitting a new screen for a friend on his P10. When I realised that none of the codes will work except the *#06#. There is no other dialer installed, I've checked default apps and phone is set to default. Any other ideas why the codes wouldn't work?
Same problem that DonnieDio is having, after changing the screen none of the codes work and my wifi doesnt work unless i am 1 meter from the router
Did you fix your issue with the Dialer? I have the same problem here !
