Gray methods of “unlocking” are a 100% loss of warranty and a sure way to get a “stone” instead of a mobile phone. Therefore, in this article you will receive recommendations on how to unlock your phone using methods that will not in any way affect the performance of the smartphone and the ability to take advantage of the warranty. Moreover, you will find out a solution to the problem when access to phone functions is blocked due to the need to enter Google account information.
Find the box for your phone and don't forget to put the receipt and the device itself in there. With all this, go to the nearest official Tele2 store and ask the employee to unlock your smartphone. Then the situation can go according to 3 scenarios:
In theory, the first 2 points work like clockwork - they are listed on 90% of sites about unlocking Tele2 Mini. However, when talking with company representatives, it turns out that “the first slot of the smartphone is intended only to work with Tele2 SIM cards.” Like, there was never any talk about unlocking two slots, and no one can provide an unlock code.
Most likely, when you visit the salon, you will write an application for unlocking, and then wait for a decision. The process may take several months, but you won’t have to delve into the device’s software.
Many will say: “refusal to unlock is a surefire reason for litigation.” However, in the legislation of the Russian Federation there are no clauses at all that in any way prohibit the sale of phones with blocked SIM cards. Moreover, the smartphone from Tele2 has one slot that works with SIM cards from MTS, Megafon, Beeline and other operators.
There are universal slot unlock codes on the Internet (the first one, since the second one initially works with any SIM cards) with which unlocking is available on any Tele2 Mini. The action plan is:
The disadvantage of this method is that you will have to enter the combination every time you turn on the smartphone. So you will either have to remember these 8 numbers or write them down somewhere.
As for the connection between the method and the possibility of further servicing the phone, the Tele2 Mini warranty card states that you can lose the warranty in case of “incorrect software installation” (this includes flashing the firmware, which you can read about below). From which we conclude that entering the above code is harmless.
On the Internet you can find several methods on how to flash your phone and thereby unlock the first slot. For those who don’t know, firmware for smartphones is the same system reinstallation as for computers. Inexperience during this operation leads to:
If you are a fairly experienced person in technical matters, to unlock Tele2 Mini you will need:
Attention. If you have never been involved in flashing smartphones, watch a few thematic videos before doing so. Or entrust the matter to a professional.
If the smartphone asks you to “log in to one of the device accounts,” there is the following sequence of actions:
Using this method, you can delete your Google account. This could theoretically come in handy when you reset your phone and removed your email and Google password from memory.
To unlock a google account on your Tele2 Mini 1.1 device, follow these steps:
If SP Flashtool does not see the phone and a green check mark and a message about successful formatting do not appear on the computer screen, then try downloading the drivers and installing them manually as stated, then repeat all the steps in the instructions.
Development of the android system is one of the main tasks of Google. Among the many new features, we want to talk about a new protection program that has appeared on all Android phones with version 5.1 and higher. Thanks to it, for example, if the phone is lost or stolen, the owner of the device has the opportunity to block it. Thus, no one will be able to boot the phone without knowing the login and password for your account in . It will also work when resetting the phone settings (hard reset).
This feature is called Google Factory Reset Protection, abbreviated as FRP lock.
A similar security scheme has long been implemented by Apple in its products and has proven itself quite well. This is what will happen if you do (for example, when deleting a pattern or phone firmware). When you first start and check access to the wi-fi network, the phone will ask confirm account. A similar message will appear.
Of course, if you remember the necessary data (they are entered when purchasing the phone), login and password, there will be no problems. But how can you bypass Google account verification if you have forgotten all your personal data and there is no way to restore them via email, and the firmware does not help?
There are several ways to choose which one is right for you, I can’t say, since each phone manufacturer (Samsung, Micromax and others) produces models with their own individual features - different function keys and software.
To do this, we need to get into the phone settings by bypassing the standard boot through the help system. Watch the video for step-by-step instructions using a Lenovo phone as an example.
Here the procedure is more complicated. To do this, we need an OTG cable with a program downloaded to a flash card, or simply reset the application (StartSettings.apk) on Micro SD and insert it into the device. More details in the video using the example of a ZTE phone.
Due to the huge number of models, there is no single correct solution to this problem. For example, in this video, the author turned off the modem with Internet access during the test and was able to bypass the confirmation on the LG G4 phone.
The most complete list of all non-standard methods is presented.
I hope that with the help of our material you were able to unlink your phone from your Google account. If you have any questions, write them in the comments
Many of you leave your own options for bypassing the protection. We want to share one of them. This method was used on the Huawei MediaPad T3 7 tablet.
1- Charge the tablet 100%
2- Turn on, select the language, region and connect to Wi Fi, accepting the terms of use.
3- On the next page “Google Services”, click on the blue inscription “Google Privacy Policy” and in the window that appears, click and hold on any of the words so that an additional menu appears in which there is “Web Search”. Click on it and select Opera (namely opera, because in Chrome it may not be possible to open downloaded files).
4- Download Test+DPC. I had version 4 (as an option, use other programs quickshortcutmaker and Google Account Manager). I don’t know how anyone downloads it, but I went to my Yahoo mail, where in my incoming messages I sent myself the required file from another mail. Install and launch. Select the second item “set up device owner”, encrypt the device. Although in many videos I have seen they choose the first one. I haven't tried it personally. A reboot is in progress. Several times further, and then the DPC window pops up asking you to set up a profile. We accept the agreement. Customizable. Then some kind of sign will pop up endlessly (I don’t remember which one, I don’t have a tablet at hand anymore). Reboot.
5- By clicking next it should start (if the DPC menu pops up asking you to create a profile in English, select the lower value “skip”.
6- That's it, the tablet is running in normal mode. Go to settings and do a full reset. After turning on, we are happy with the unlocked device
They also ask in comments and private messages on Google. We have a separate article about this. Here we are discussing something a little different, namely possible ways to bypass confirmation.
Let's supplement the material with another video from a visitor. This method will be useful to all owners of Xiaomi phones, regardless of the model.
Google is actively improving the security of the Android OS and introducing anti-theft protection such as linking the device to a Google account. In this article, we will figure out how to bypass your Google account after a reset.
Before you start re-reading the article! Read the comments first, and then carefully the entire article!
With each new release of Android, Google tries to raise the level of security of this mobile operating system and introduces new protection mechanisms.
So, with version Android 5.1 Lollipop, a new anti-theft mechanism was added, the essence of which is as follows: after purchase, the owner of a smartphone or tablet links the device to his Google account. If the device is suddenly stolen and the attacker erases all data, he will run into Google Device Protection called Factory Reset Protection or FRP.
But not everything went as smoothly as we wanted, if you bought the phone second-hand or forgot your account and reset it, then naturally you fall for FRP protection. You need to reset your Google account!
If we consider it globally, there are two options for resetting the protection:
Let's first look at the official option for resetting FRP or how to avoid this problem when resetting, and then look at all the ways to bypass Factory Reset Protection.
If you try to enter your Google account after resetting your Android settings, but you can’t go any further, then most likely you reset your password not long ago; if this is the case, then wait 24-72 hours, then try again.
Below we will suggest many methods on how to unofficially bypass FRP protection, you just have to try each one to eventually get a working Android.
If your Android device supports Fastboot, then you can try performing an FRP reset through it.
To do this you will need:
Then you can enter the following commands:
fastboot oem clean_frp
or run this command
fastboot erase persistent
fastboot erase frp
fastboot erase config
After the reset, you need to try to enter the settings menu, after which you will need:
Then enter the following commands:
adb shell content insert --uri content://settings/secure --bind name:s:user_setup_complete --bind value:s:1
adb shell am start -n com.google.android.gsf.login/
adb shell am start -n com.google.android.gsf.login.LoginActivity
For this method, you will need official firmware for installation using a computer. This firmware must contain a scatter.txt file.
For this method you need to have:
Then put Android into Recovery mode and flash the FRP-False.zip file.
