What I'm asking for is written into the title, I've seen that a lot of devices that come WITH GAPPS already installed are compatible with FRP lock (it means that if you reset your phone without unlinking your Google account before, than after the factory reset you will need to log-in into your google account for be able to use the phone) but this device doesn't support GAPPS out of the box (you need to install them); so after factory reset GAPPS (installed inside the data partition) will be deleted and than the protection shouln't work. Can anyone confirm this? (even with experiences of other chinese phones, not only this device,because chinese phones aren't supposed to have gapps). The second question is: is google pay working on this device? Thank you all

Hello guys,
Was hoping someone would help with the dilemma I'm facing right now.
A friend of mine got locked out of his phone with WiFi and Data disabled, so all the options for resolving that either by logging with google account or resetting the backup password will not work as he can not remember his backup password.
The obvious choice would be to reset the phone, but he is desperate to get the data stored on his phone as he has not done a backup recently and it would be lost. Retrieving the data via USB will not work either because it is set as Media device rather MTP option.
I've read that I can flash a stock ROM and TWRP which would help in backing up the data first before flashing, but apparently TWRP is not released yet for this AT&T version.
Anyway, my question is, is there anyway that I can backup the data from the phone at its current state or is there a way to force Wifi or data on !?
If not, how can I flash a stock ROM using Odin while the phone is locked and not rooted originally !? this is assuming of course it will not wipe out his data entirely

Plug the phone into a pc then download the files to a folder that you create you then can factory reset and that will clear the password.
Once that's done you can retrieve the files that was stored on the pc

Hello guys!
I have updated my N920C to MM 6.0.1 Officially. Unfortunately I didn't enable the developer option and OEM was not unlocked also. I tried to restore or recover my device with KIES and RootJunkey method as well. Neither I can install a custom recovery nor It could be fixed with reset method because of FRP lock. Kindly help me getting out of this problem. Everytime it gets stucked on Google account login after reset And I really don't remember that account which was logged in previously.
Error Message: This device was reset. To continue, sign in with a google account that was previously synced on this device. (and it can't be skipped).
Note: I tried OTG method but it did not work. Bcoz Marshmallow does not allow the file manager to popup directly. That method is supported with Android L or less.

I've factory reset twice.. every other time I do this on other phones, I'll get a full restore of the apps I have on the phone I am upgrading from... no such luck here.. is this not supported?
I have also tried removing and re-adding my Google acct (suggested in one thread I found).
Hey,
I bought a Nokia 7 Plus TA-1062 from China. After it arrived I installed the global android version using the instructions provider here. I then side loaded a 8.1.0 version with Security path from 1st of August. The phone is functioning fine in terms of ability to browse web/take calls/use camera/etc. - HOWEVER - during any of these updates I wasn't able to use any of Google's services (Play Store/Cloud login/Updates). It's just stuck on 'Checking info...' and sometimes notifies it wasn't able to connect.
When I look at the Google Play Services logs (using the *#*#426#*#* code) I see that the connection is failing constantly. I've tried reseting the cache/data of all related apps and the phone itself without help.
Anyone knows how to solve this? Why are the Google Play Services not working?

I am also the Chinese version of Nokia 7plus, also found this problem, the message can not be pushed!
flashing gapps would solve the problem if you have a recovery installed, but since we cannot unlock our bootloader, you're ****ed

Thanks for replying - I'm new to all this and would like to learn more -
1. What does it mean to have "recovery installed"? I'm able to enter the recovery console on boot via the power button+up volume key trick (that's how I sideloaded the 8.1 version), I'm guessing that's not it?
2. What does it mean to unlock the bootloader? how do you know if your bootloader is locked or not?
3. and probably most important - how do you flash gapps?? That's something that I'd like to try, maybe my phone is already unlocked by some sheer luck (doubt it since it came in a sealed box)

Hello, i have this 1062 chineses with global ROM too, this code to Google services log work to me but the problem im facing now its only"device uncertified" and NFC dont work, also OTA dont work, OTA Gave me updates until May, after this i did updates until Aug by SD
Hello guys! After experiencing all custom ROMS including Xiaomi.EU, figured out that every single one has some small inconvenience for me and planning to return to stock, eventually using only Magisk and potentially a custom Kernel.
Managed to install every single version of Global Developer ROM, everything works well except the FaceUnlock that was gone, (the phone remained stucked in China region) and I am not able to access the fingerprint section, after few tries it brings me an error message.
Tried also using MIFlash , but the Fastboot ROM writting took 3 sec to write and stopped as successfully, then nothing but bootlooping.
Currently is the phone is functional, but as mentioned before not able to setup new fingerprints (using cache and data from old recovery and those work) neither Face Unlock.
Tried to Google any kind of solution, but unfortunately nothing worked.
Any suggestion is appreciated.
I see that nobody is interested to support, so I continuously researched and figured out that doing a full wipe and following these steps from this post will solve my problem:

From I don't know which reason I was blocked on China region without the possibility to changing it.
