How to remove Google Account after factory reset I have been given a Huawei smartphone that needed a new screen, which I've just had replaced. I now want to sell the phone.

Am I forced to enter the Google account of the previous owner in order to complete the start up process after a factory reset?

Can I then delete the old Google account ready for the new owner?
If you have executed the factory reset properly then the phone is not asking you for a Google Account of the previous owner, it is asking you to provide your Google Account so you can best use features offered by the Android phone. If you don't have an account yet you can also create it with your phone directly providing that you have internet access.
