Hello my fellow Axon enthusiast. I wanted to let you guys know that I have run into a problem that is detrimental. You see, I was on b27 firmware with root and I decided to downgrade and start all over due to root breaking something in my system image. I downgraded, but I had the efs partition problem. I fixed that and rebooted. I found myself with 4 gigabytes so I went into recovery, factory reset and flashed a stock b20 boot image(before I used drakenfx stockb20system.zip). After that, I rebooted and I was prompted to reset with the title saying encryption reset. I reset and thought I was finally finished. Unfortunately I wasn't. When I tried to get through the setup wizard, I couldn't because when I factory reset my device, gmail wouldn't let me sign in with the message saying verify your account. I would put the correct info in and it said sign in with the owners account which was me. I found out that this is Google's account verification security once I looked it up and I have to wait 72 hours to log in with my new password. So in conclusion, I'm asking if anyone here has had this problem? And if you have, how did you bypass this? I don't mean to sound desperate, but I'm down to my last leg.

Guess no one has ever had this problem before ?. All I want to do is have my Device again. Waiting 72 up to 114 hours is not delightful.

Looks like you may need to wait it out for three days, but there are some steps to take.... Look at the link above.
Thank you so much for sharing this with me. I do have some other things to say if I could. One: When I would try to factory reset in the settings, it wouldn't let me by pressing reset device. I would press it and nothing would happen. Two: Before I knew a little more about the frp, I factory reset a couple of more times through recovery. Had the same verify account come up. This all started with that encryption prompt coming up flashing that boot image. I'll try to wait for 72 hours. If it doesn't work when it's up, then I'll give it more time(2 weeks). But I want to thank you for responding to me.

Take it back to best buy - only way this happens is if it is not a brand new device. Someone had it before you.

Now hold on. Wait for 48 hours before you think about returning anything.
