How to avoid blocking problems on Honor in the future

Account blocking by the FRP system is a very popular phenomenon that owners of all devices with Android version 6 and higher face. To avoid getting into an awkward situation in the future, write down your passwords separately in a notepad. Or electronic password managers. This way you will never forget your login information. When creating or logging into your account again, leave the backup setting active on Honor in case you need to reset the settings on your phone.

Password manager from Kaspersky

Do not come up with complex passwords for your account that are difficult to remember. Use something simple like your children's date of birth, best friend, mother, father, etc. If your device has a choice of locks, it is better to choose fingerprint or face lock (Face ID). This way, you won’t need to remember the pattern and won’t need to unlock your Honor phone if you suddenly forget the password. If you rarely go to public places and the likelihood of losing your smartphone is minimal, it is better to abandon the screen lock altogether.
