Android 5.0 (Lollipop) introduced a security feature called Factory Reset Protection. If a phone is reset without the owner removing their Google account first, the phone locks and asks for the previous Google credentials.
In the early days of Lollipop, there were exploits that allowed users to bypass this lock. These methods often involved manually installing an older or specific version of Google Account Manager to create a "bridge" or open a vulnerability that allowed the user to add a new Google account without knowing the previous password.
