How to unlock an android phone which you don't know the password / have family link / FRP Without any requirements [No Root]
(Only tested on motorola phones so this probably wouldn't work with other brands/versions (Let me know))
These steps are for android 11/12.
*I'll soon try to help someone unlock a Samsung phone that they bought from someone that stealed it, so compatibility may get larger soon.
But the cases are:
What you need :
Nothing except the phone! (Not even rooted, unlocked or anything like that)
Step 1: Formatting the phone
You should keep in mind that this step will erase everything from your phone.
If this is your phone you should know it and everything should be fine. But if you are in the family link problem or got someone else's phone, then let's go to the next step.
Step 2 : Bypassing Google lock
But then, make sure you set up a lockscreen, add a new google account (not a family link one) and then, format the phone again as step 1, because the phone will have a lot of bugs since the setup isn't correctly done.
Then that's it!
Bonus steps for android 12
If you have android 12 , you need to activate talkback (in vision settings) , open google assistant (say "google assistant"), press both volume buttons to disable talkback and type "Google" to the assistant to open google. In google, type "Open settings" to open the settings app.
Now go back to the bypassing google lock instructions and skip to the step 3 at "Scroll to accessibility".

But the cases are:
- You forgot your password
- Have Family Link
- Says that you need to connect to your google account (SKIP TO STEP 2)
- You (accidentally?) bought a stealed phone
What you need :
Nothing except the phone! (Not even rooted, unlocked or anything like that)
Step 1: Formatting the phone
You should keep in mind that this step will erase everything from your phone.
- Reboot your phone, hold the volume down button until you see the fastboot menu.
- Scroll with the volume buttons until you see "recovery menu" and press the power button to access the recovery menu.
- This step can vary over phones, just tell me your phone model if it doesn't work and I'll tell you the keys.
- Hold the power button and volume down button together, then while still holding, press volume up. You should see a list of recovery options. With the same way as fastboot, scroll to Wipe data / Factory reset , then follow the instructions to wipe "your" phone.
If this is your phone you should know it and everything should be fine. But if you are in the family link problem or got someone else's phone, then let's go to the next step.
Step 2 : Bypassing Google lock

- At the "Hi There" welcome screen, tap "emergency call", tap on emergency information (two times), tap the edit pencil, tap the owner , tap the icon and press "choose an image".
- In the files app, press the menu at the left (open from), long press google photos. Tap permissions, contacts then "see all apps with this permission".
- Tap the search bar and search for "settings". Search for the settings app. It should be almost at the bottom of the searching results. It may not appear the first time. Then, tap the settings app. Scroll to "Accessibility", Scroll down to accessibility menu and activate the accessibility menu shortcut.
- Go back to the settings menu and select "Apps & notifications". Tap on the three dots at the top right and select " show system apps " Tap the app "Android Setup". Force stop it and disable it. There is another Android Setup app too, force stop it. It can't be disabled. Now, do the same thing for the app "Google Play services".
- Go all back to the Hi There welcome menu and press start. When it will say "Checking for updates..." go back with the return arrow. At the "choose wifi" screen, open the accessibility menu by swiping two fingers from all down of your screen to up. Press the "Assistant" bubble and enable google play services. Go back and skip wifi setup.
But then, make sure you set up a lockscreen, add a new google account (not a family link one) and then, format the phone again as step 1, because the phone will have a lot of bugs since the setup isn't correctly done.
Then that's it!
