Specifically what is the message that you see, and at what point in the set-up procedure?

Welcome to Android Central! Which phone? It sounds like you're seeing Google's Factory Reset Protection feature. If you do a factory reset without first removing your Google account, you have to enter that same account's information after the factory reset. If your correct Google information isn't working, then did you also change your Google password online? If yes, then you have to wait 72 hours after the change before you can log into the phone.

Also, if you have 2-step authentication for your Google account turned on, turn it off temporarily while you sign in.
