Factory reset protection

When you reset a device you need to add your google account to set up device again but after a reset you can input any google account - with factory reset protection enabled the device asks for verification that it was you who wiped it before you can do another set-up on that device - verification is done via the initial google account linked to that device - thieves will reset the device but can't verify = device is bricked unsellable... For quick sales that is

Sidenote; Android 15 theft protection features, which aren't limited to Android 15, if i mind rightly droid 10+ will get the features, are for to prevent sale of stolen devices

So, enable these settings if you have them they won't prevent a theft but could prevent your stolen device from being sold - these crimes are rising because its east for crooks to wipe a phone back to factory set-up - one feature android added will ultimately brick a phone

Just a heads up

If you have a Pixel and waiting for the OTA Android 15 update you might have to manually check

GOTO system updates and even if it says "system up to date" hit the "check for update" button bottom right sometimes hitting more than once will trigger update

I had to that a few days back & seems others who have been waiting for the update didn't know hitting that button can trigger the update << I have had ppl msg me over past few days about this or have mentioned it in chats
