not currently possible.

And security isnt needed in android, the only areas are flaws are flashing but every device suffers this area.

But then incase someone forgets the password to Unlock the phone then the phone is lost forever. It's not practical to lock the phone from flashing as it's the way to restore if something goes wrong.

Android 5.1 kind off solves the problem. When you reset the device and try to activate it it will ask for the previous Google account details it's kind off like how how apple does it.

But Sony and Samsung devices that has programs like flash tool and Odin leaked it CA be bypassed AFAIK. But on other devuces with locked bootloader it's almost impossible to reset.
