you can do the factory reset by pressing down on the volume and power button at the same time

[Kai696]

[Sofii]

@Kai696 oh? I didn't think you still needed it? I did that with my burner and it worked.. try again maybe?

I have some bad news for you. Android phones have what is called Factory Reset Protection. This means that if the phone is tied to a Google account and is reset the way you reset it, then you must log in to the Google account associated with the phone. As far as I know there's no way around this.

Maybe try taking it to a carrier that does the "turn in any phone any condition and get a free phone" and get a pay as you go SIM card just so you're getting a SIM card? I'm not sure if this will work but it's an idea.
