There are no other options. This is even more stupid than the phone number verification thing. Attemping to logging to Google Play Store on that wiped device (which previously was logged in to the account) doesn't work either.

Luckily, this is a throwaway account, not much data of value was lost. FRP on the wiped device was also off.

But like, what is the point of this. Suppose, my phone got stolen. How am I supposed to log in to Google to initiate a remote wipe, if it ask for a verification code which is on the phone that the thief has?

Zero logic at all. ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Edit: And MFA was never enabled. Just to clarify.

If you're logged in on a computer you can deregister the device in your security settings and it will use the other available authentication types.

I've always been able to select another way to verify my login.

I'm just gonna copy paste what I said to another user on another thread regarding this topic:


Okay, so I attempted to access it again. Its currently in a weird state of partial access.

I can "log in" but as soon as I try to access anything, say, Gmail, I get that screen again.

This is what the settings page looks like:

So its not totally locked out, but its not functional either, I'm not even on a VPN.

Notice, 2FA is off.

Then I click Gmail and get this:

I tap "more ways to verify" and get this:

I tap the only option, and it circles back to the previous screen.

They said to try again on a computer. All your screen shots are from a phone. You might get the same result, but we won't know until you attempt it.

on a computer

You mean a web browser? Those exist on mobile devices too.

[โ€“] NarrativeBear@lemmy.world 1 points 2 minutes ago

On a computer or device that the device and browser is already signed into.

I had the same issue just a week ago after resetting my phone. As was said here I had to deregister my device in Google, because they didn't know that I had reset that device. For Google it was a complete new device in my hand, despite it still being the same phone after reset. That's why Google tried to make me F2A on what it thought was my old device.

Only after removing the old device in Google on my computer was I able to login on it again.
