If you’re using the Vertex Impress Stone smartphone as your daily driver and due to some reasons Google Account ask for existing account credentials, you’ve come to the right place. Earlier, you can do a simple factory reset to your phone and it will remove Google account and settings with internal data completely. But recently, Google wants to keep the user data private to maintain the FRP Lock on a used Android device. Now, if you don’t know or can’t remember the Google account details, you should follow the guide completely. Here in this guide, we will share with you the steps to Remove Google Account or ByPass FRP Lock on Vertex Impress Stone handset.
If Google detects that your device is recently factory reset, then you will be prompted that in order to unlock the FRP, you need to log in with your existing Google account. If you have the existing Google account credentials then it’s fine. But if you don’t have the previous account details, you need to bypass the FRP lock from your device via SP Flash Tool. FYI, the handset is powered by MediaTek MT6739 SoC and runs on Android 8.1 Oreo.
Before going to the flashing steps and requirements, let’s have a look at the FRP Lock details.
FRP Lock: Overview
The Google Account Lock or FRP Lock stands for Factory Reset Protection Lock. Now, FRP is a security measure taken by Google for all Android devices running on the newer versions of Android. This functionality was first introduced by Google with the Android 5.1 Lollipop. The functionality gets activated whenever you sign in to a Google account on your Android device. Once it’s activated, it will prevent the user to use again without signing into the earlier account.
