Android is the worlds most popular opensource mobile platform OS developed by Google. Android Debug Bus (ADB) and Fastboot are the mediums to communicate your android phone with your PC. As the user base of this OS is increasing rapidly, the issue of Google Account Lock or FRP lock is also being increasingly faced by the users.

As you have already seen FRP lock in action, but let me tell you about Factory Reset Protection (FRP) . So in general FRP is a security mechanism that helps prevent intruders from resetting your phone when your phone is lost or stolen. When the intruder resets (obviously he doesn't know your password) your phone, he will end up needing to enter the same Google account as before that was on the phone. And like that FRP lock works.
