Samsung "setup in progress"

[MiszS]

I just got my phone repaired, and because they had to swap the motherboard I obviously have no data on it and have to set it up again, and there is this notification that says "galaxy a33 setup in progress", and it won't go away unless I finish the setup, which requires me to log in with my google or samsung account which I do NOT want to do, is there a way to bypass this bullshit?

If you click on the notification, go through all the steps and say "no thank you" and "skip" where possible, it should go away

the options are: set up manually > don't copy data > and then it's just "account added", though it says I can remove it later in setting so imma try

Is there no option to skip account setup or select "later"? I have to set up phones at work a lot and that's how I normally get rid of the notification.

yeah there literally wasn't an option like that, only for the samsung account later, but not for the google account option that it found

Yeah it keeps bothering you on newer samsungs and some other phones. Its annoying

I have to factory reset phones a lot at work for testing and essentially having to go through all the setup steps twice can be super annoying. But I'm fairly certain I'm able to skip both Samsung and Google account setup. Won't be able to confirm until Monday though, since I'm not at work today.

yeah I think I managed to skip the samsung account in the later options
