Cannot access the device without Google email

[EmmaDu]

Hi, there.

I keep trying from yesterday to put my google account and password so I can get the device started but cannot succeed in doing that as it keeps saying "unable to sign in to device due to a recent password changed. Please try and sign in in 24 hrs after the password change was performed". Can anybody know why this is happening. I tried to see if google has some errors, but it is not the case and I am logged in on my other device and it is working properly, as well as on my laptop.So i don't understand. otherwise I'm gonna need to send the phone back.

Please help me.

It is some added security measure by Google, and it requires a lot of patience. Simply you need to leave your phone off for at least 24 hours, any attempts during this period may reset the counter to a new 24 hours. Take a look on this on Google's forum:

Thanks a lot for your response. That confirmed what I already know and gave confidence. Take care!
