There are several reasons one would want to bypass a Google account on an Android phone. One such example is purchasing a second-hand phone only to see that someone else’s Google account locks it.

And with Google’s FPR or Factory Reset Protection, you cannot even perform a factory data reset to bypass the Google account signed in on the device. Thus, the only option is to use third-party software for the job.

This is where Wondershare’s Dr.Fone – Screen Unlock comes in. With the tool, you will be able to bypass the Google Account Verification on most Samsung phones with just a few clicks.

What is FRP lock?

Factory Reset Protection — as the name suggests — prevents users from resetting and using a device that has a Google account signed in.

This is done to ensure that if a mobile phone is lost or stolen, the person who finds or steals the device won’t be able to access any user data on it.

So Google’s FRP is an important security feature but can quickly turn into a hassle in some situations like the one mentioned above or in case you forget your own ID and password for the device.

That said, now let’s take a look at how you can bypass a lockscreen on an Android phone with a Google account signed in using Dr.Fone – Screen Unlock.

Steps to bypass Google account (FRP) on Samsung devices

Bypassing Google FRP on your Samsung device will only take a few minutes from start to finish. Follow these steps:
