I hope the search engine signin verification doesn’t make this annoying. I have no idea of the extent it affects the actual email address.

Context: An android I intended to use for Revanced requires a previous Gmail login to unlock the phone (although it’s brand new), and the sneaky workaround also hinges on the Gmail signin.

And it won’t make calls until unlocked so I can try to call from another phone with the IMEI number but if that doesn’t work… can’t use the phone.

If it’s too much of a stuff around I’ll just have to buy a secondhand unlocked android.
