My older OP3 had a faulty motherboard so I bought another OP3 with a broken display from some guy over the net. Changed the motherboard, phone started and asked me to input previous google account used on the smartphone. I thought sideloading latest Oxigen OS will make that request go away, but surprise it`s still there even after all resets from stock recovery. I know that the bootloader is still locked and I can`t reach the settings to activate OEM unlock to try unlock it. How can I setup the phone if I don`t know the ex-user credentials? The guy who sold it to me had no clue what google user was used on it befor display broken
:confused::(:eek:
Just to make it clear, I haven`t stoled any smartphone, I can provide pictures with both (broken one and the one I`m tryin` to set it up now) for anyone can gimme an aswer to this problem....if there is any. I`m not new to android as you can clearly see from my xda user.
