Frequently asked questions

Is the erase really permanent? Yes. The Data Eraser performs a factory reset combined with a partition wipe, so personal data cannot be recovered with ordinary tools.

Should I remove my Google account first? Yes — remove your Google and OEM accounts before erasing to avoid Factory Reset Protection locking the device for the next owner.

Can I cancel after confirming? No. The erase is irreversible once started. FRPB asks for explicit confirmation and warns you to back up first.

Does the Data Eraser require a license? The utility is included with the FRPB desktop app and full module execution requires an active FRPB license key.

Is the FRPB tool safe and private?

All four utilities run fully offline over a local USB connection. Nothing is uploaded to a server, and the installers are published on the official GitHub Releases page so you can verify exactly what runs on your machine.

The desktop app requires an active FRPB license key to execute a module. Download it from the official releases page, then open the Free Utilities tab to run the tool.

FRPB is intended strictly for authorised device owners and repair professionals. Only use an FRP bypass tool on hardware you own or have explicit permission to service.
