Can't unlock my pixel 3

[Android Central Question]

Hello,

I have a spare pixel 3 and has been inactive for about half a year.

Today when I try to login to it shows me the password was not correct.

I tried like 15 times and no luck.

So I watched a youtube video which shows me how to factory reset my pixel.

And after reseting it, I can see a "lock" icon on the top left of the setup screen.

I look it up on the internet, and I guess it's the factory reset protect icon.

I have access to my google account and I can see the Pixel 3 phone under my google device.

But I could not unlock or erase the account since the Pixel 3 could not connect to the internet (I tried both WiFi and cellular, and I think it is due to the system timestamp is reset or too old)

I tried to find online chat to someone from Google but failed.

Any help would be appreciated!

Welcome to Android Central! After the reset, it didn't ask again for your Google account/password? Where are you stuck now?

I moved this to the Pixel 3 forum for more specific traffic.
