- Hit the back button on your phone to go back to the Google app. In Google app now type downloads and open Downloads app from the suggestions list.
- In Downloads app, you will see the downloaded Test DCP app file. Install the test DCP app. At this point, your phone must be 100% charged and connected with charger.
- After installation of the Test DCP app is finished, open this app. This app will remove the FRP lock (Google account verification lock)
- When Test DCP app opens, follow the instructions and go for Encryption option.
- Now your phone may restart multiple times. Whenever it asks for permissions — just give the required permissions. Eventually, your phone will open the Home screen without asking for a Google account.
- Go to Settings and do a factory reset and restart your phone.
- That’s it. When phone will restart, you will not be asked to verify the previously synced Google account.
