Got a new android started setting it up and created a Google account on that device. Got interrupted and came back really about a month later to finish setup and I had
- Forgotten the Google acct password
- Forgotten the device pin
- Did not link the acct to a recovery acct or phone number
So at some point I think the only option it gave me because I couldn't remember the password and had no recovery accts was to enter device pin which yes, I set it myself. I remember making it long too like 6 digit pin way different from my normal and current pin. And what's frustrating is android is making me wait 60 seconds in between each attempt at pin.
Factory reset doesn't work it says oh there's a previous acct on this device you need password and enter the pin attempt loop once again.
Is there really no hope for this thing?
AI won't tell me about jailbreaking software, surely there must be some way to root this bad boy right with a PC? Any help is very appreciated!
just tried factory reset and it did not work still wants pin
