I am asked to verify my google account password to unlock the device, but the password is not recognized
Teja Pagidimarri says
Exactly where you getting the error?
Cindy says
What I did to stop that was to simply delete my Google account from the tablet. When I went back, it said there was no way to verify the tablet, but there was an option to continue anyway. Hope this helped.

Hi all. I have copied the Unlock tool to my ASUS tablet but when I open it to install, the install button is not responding. I can click on cancel, right next to it. I can also select the various allowances that the install is showing to get further details on them, but the Install button itself is unresponsive. Also side not, my screen just turned to a red hue seconds after it booted up normally. This tablet is a mess but I still have hope for it. Any ideas as to how I can get the unlock tool to install?
Greg says
Before installation can occur, it asks for google verification and my PW is not being accepted as valid! What am I to do? I’ve tried changing my PW. Made it simpler, nothing. Not sure what’s left for me?
Greg says
figured this part out with a hard reset. now the flowing issue below:

Nicolas Romani says
I have a problem trying to doing it on 2020. When it supposed to unlock and reboot it says me that have been an error with my internet.
Michael says
I tried to unlock my tf700T with no success. This is what I did.
-factory data reset
-allowed unknown sources for apps
-activated developer tools and allowed USB debugging
-ensured that there were no account registrations with the device
-ensured a strong wifi connection and internet connection
-reboot the device again
-register the device with Asus
I finally contacted Asus, and apparently they do not support ANY tablet maintenance
“For Pad-type models, there will no longer be any system updates and maintenance(including Unlock Tool). Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. Thank you for your understanding and support.”
I really wish there was a workaround for the boot unlocker.
