Sorry, I know this isn't specific to the 10, but I'm desperate. I just wiped my phone and now I can't sign in to Google without the Authenticator app (which I can't get because I can't sign in). I can't change my 2-step verification settings from my laptop because it requires a code as well. What the hell do I do?!
Edit: I don't have backup codes, but I did setup a backup phone. When I click "Try another way to sign in" it doesn't show any backup options, though.
I've always just had it text me during first time setup..
Yeah, normally texting is how I get past it if I don't have the app installed did you not configure it with your phone number? I even have my wife's number as a backup to my backup
I did have a backup number, but for some reason it's not showing up in the options.

On the phone click "problem with code" and then select text, it will automatically receive the text code and enter it automatically
or
On the website click "Try another way to sign in"
In either case the only options were to enter the code from the app or initiate an account reset.
So, i copied an provxml file to the phone and hardreset it. Phone has gone to sad face. Meanwhile, i unlocked bootloader, enabled root access, disabled root acces, lockedback bootloader. And flashed to wp8.1 using wdrt. The problem is that my phone was impersonated as lumia950xl before to get last insider builds.. And after reflash i got Reset Protection recovery key screen. After i erased phone from my account and got the key, i cant recover phone. I fear to make emergency call and go to store to activate my account on phone.
Interesting....
I have an FRP locked 640 XL I bought off ebay for parts. I think I know what you mean by, "I fear to make emergency call and go to store to activate my account on phone." Microsoft seems at this point the only entity that can disable reset protection on the chip.

No, you don't. Make the call, activate video call, store will open to install skipe, there in store settings page you can insert your credentials.

That is one way to do it, but it won't disable FRP will it?
So, there is internet connection. I can insert Microsoft account, it notify me if i insert wrong password....but when i put good password and press login...bang....there is no internet connection, please retry Fkng Microsoft.

How about just bypassing it?
Just how? There is no return. Im talking about first screen, where it ask for key or account. After inserting account , no login

Maybe this is your solution
Bypassing is the first step. I have not yet found a way to disable it...if even possible.
No keyboard settings on wp8.1.

Upgrade to W10M...If you push the cabs for W10M to it via iutool you might actually bypass the FRP setup...that has happened to me before. But if you hard reset again on W10M unsuccessful to disable FRP it will show again.
A full list of cabs for lumia 640 xl dual sim rm_1067?
Download the wim file here
Open it in 7zip. Extract the folder for 640-640XL to a directory and push the cabs. You might even be able to just avoid all the work and download Microsofts otcupdater tool and use it to upgrade back to W10M...either or will work.

If there is an FRP trip on your device, it will return but not until a Factory Reset/Hard Reset. But at least you get to use your phone again...
Edit: Oh and if you decide to try to remote wipe your phone once your account is back on. Don't just in case you have the same problem as me. My phone is FRP locked and bypassed. I was able to login with my account and add the phone to my account. One day was messing around and decided to test the remote wipe feature. It worked, sort of... There is some bug or an issue now that every time I sign into the phone to add it back to my account it immediately remote wipes it again. WP8 won't do this though since it does not run a compatible verison of the OS to use such features on the 640 XL.
I'm goying thru the second update
Tomorrow i will look here https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/dn757558(v=vs.85).aspx using WPinternals.
EDIT:
Third update now...
EDIT2: i installed reset protection cab. But strange, cant reset phone, no internet connection . And language don't stick, it changed to default allways.
Still fighting https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/manufacture/mobile/reset-protection
So today i repeated all stuff. I reseted user data meanwhile the bootloader was unlock and root access activated. The sad face appeared again. So....flash to wp8.1.... and all from the beginning.

Maybe wait to see what Heathcliff74 has on his next release...?
After a factory reset I now get the Google "This device was reset" screen prompting me to enter credentials of a user that was previously logged on. This phone has been in use by both myself and my wife for 2 years now. I've tried using both her email to log on and mine but after a few seconds it just goes back to the same screen. I know my password is correct because I get the 2 factor authentication prompt on my main phone and an email saying I logged in from a new device. But still, nothing happens on the GX8.
I tried some of the tricks I found to bypass FRP but they all use the same trick of downloading an apk from chrome and then clicking on "open" at the bottom. mine downloads the file just fine but there is never a prompt at the bottom to open it so I can't run any APK.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
After factory reset I'm stuck at google account screen which I don't remember since it wasn't my main google account.
After a lot of research I've tried the talkback->youtube but chrome or any browser doesn't open so I can't use it
Tried the gmail path but whole menu' doesn't show up, only account section and no options
Tried the keyboard "assist" but google search bar doesn't appear.
Tried to flash stock rom from sdcard but fails at 5%
Phone wasn't rooted and everything is stock
How do I get past google account screen? Is it as good as bricked?
UPDATE: I managed to get past FRP through the stock email app exploit! I cannot post links however due to forum restrictions.
In case anyone needs:
1. Follow guide with normal talkback->share link->email(select stock email app instead of Gmail)
1.1 Create a hotmail or whatever account on an other device.
2. Sign in, compose email, attach file from sd card (QuickShortcutMaker apk, you can google it)
3. Send email! you can send to random address
4. Go to outgoing, open sent email and open attached file and install
5. After install open and scroll down to "Huawei Home", open first option, then tap "try"
6. You now have access to whole phone, go to Settings->Accounts and delete all accounts
7. Go back to settings->backup&restore->Factory reset and confirm
8. Phone is now clean of FRP, enjoy!
A friend of mine asked about this. It's never a problem I've had, but thank you for sharing the solution. This could come in handy!

Indeed! Most common solutions weren't working for me so for a few days I was going crazy, but finally found one that works. Maybe someone else doesn't have to go crazy too!
Reset ZenFone 2. Now asking to verify the account but getting "disallowed_useragent"
I was having touch-screen issues so I reset my phone. When I boot now I get prompted for language, wi-fi, etc. Next screen says:
Verify your account
This device was reset. To continue, sign in with a Google Account that was previously synced on this device.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The problem is that there's no place to enter any information, just a button "Verify account". When I press the button I get a Google error:
403. That's an error.
Error: disallowed_useragent
Google can't sign you in safely inside this app. You can use Google sign-in by visiting this app's website in a browser like Safari or Chrome.

...but I don't know the app and I can't do anything else on the phone. Can anyone provide an answer on how to fix it?
UPDATE:
So the OS version was really old. I went through a series of updates by side-loading the ROMs from the ASUS support site. After 3 or 4 upgrades I had a completely different experience and it let me verify my account. All seems well for now.
Just a couple of notes in case someone else has issues:
- Using Fedora (linux) desktop I needed to use "sudo ./adb devices" to be able to start the server and perform the side-load. Without "sudo" I was receiving an error about permissions.
- I performed the upgrades starting with the kernel version that was already on the phone and then upgraded to the next release each time after booting to each upgrade. I did this because I received an error on one upgrade saying I couldn't go there directly.
Peace.
I have the exact same issue with a phone that I'm trying to setup for my kid. Where did you get your firmwares for this phone?
Start by going here: https://icr-am.asus.com/webchat/icr...634.649586617.1546133606-337662955.1546133606
Then select "Download Center" from the chat window pane. Select your specific phone model. Select BIOS & FIRMWARE. Be sure to select the correct version for your phone (WW, CN, JP, etc.)
Good luck!
