Part 1: "This device was reset. To continue, sign in with a Google Account that was previously synced on this device." What's the Problem?

This error occurs typically when the Android phone's default Factory Reset Protection (FRP) gets activated, due to some mishap or accidental factory reset. It is a security protocol offered by the Android OS to its user to reset the phone/device outside of the built-in settings feature.

If you wish to acknowledge the reset initiation, then all you are required to do is enter your Google account credentials and start using the Android phone from scratch. But if you wish to keep your settings on the phone intact or forgot your login information, then you can bypass the Google sign-in option through a variety of fixes, which we will discuss in the latter part of the article.

The OEM unlock feature is a way of breaking an agreement between the user, and the manufacturer, which also enables the user to perform anything on the Android phone through the bootloader. It also allows us to implement a custom recovery on your phone instead of using the default methods which are offered by your Google. If you previously had the OEM unlocking feature activated, then you will be able to fix the factory reset protection immediately.

You can bypass the Google sign-in through the help of a third-party app of the apk format. Here are the steps to perform such a procedure with FRP bypass apk app:
