    • Hi, sorry we do not understand about which kind of unlock, because as far as we know if you use official ROM of LG G6, then your phone will work normally without need to worry about unlock, unless you buy special offer from network provider at specific country or network provider. If you mean some thing like that, then we can not give any suggestion to unlock, because that steps will not standard anymore. Please consult with your network provider to make sure your LG G6 can make phone call properly.

  • After reset via recovery, buttons, phone says I need to log in to google account to continue but I don't have it anymore. Can it be bypassed? I tried with Accessibility Settings but they are greyed out.

    • Hi, LG G6 already use FRP (factory reset protections) to protect this access by unauthorized people after finish hard reset, like using hardware button combination key like steps at #option 2 above. That is why LG G6 will ask for previous Google account after finish hard reset. If you forgot about your Google account, then try to restore from Forgot email menu at Google website. https://accounts.google.com/signin/usernamerecovery. For that steps your will need to provide phone number or the recovery email address for the account.
