adb kill-server
  • Backup the data on your device before you accidentally screw up
  • Enable Developer Options and USB debugging on your device
  • From the settings, disconnect from any OEM / vendor accounts (deleting an OEM account package could lock you on the lockscreen because the device can no longer associate your identity)
