Does that software give you option from recovering from your emai?
Or try going your phone's recovery and do a factory reset

Use the recovery mode to reset the phone.

Power, vol up and home button (if there is any) and factory reset the phone there.

Be sure to remove the memory card and the sim (just in case), also tell your friend that factory resetting the phone clears all data on the phone.

Do try this as well (It worked for me on my Galaxy Ace), I had GoLocker installed.

-Reboot the phone, the phone will most probably start with the stock lockscreen and you can go ahead and Uninstall Maze Lock. If this doesnt work, I'm afraid you'll have to flash stock firmware again.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.

    did you try setting up Google Payments? For UBL you may have to get it enabled for internet transactions, Naya should work without it!

    I tried both NayaPay, and UBL, but I keep getting "correct country selected..." error. I already have PK set there 🤦‍♂️
