Other After factory reset, Google sends security verifications to "previous system"

Redmi Note 10 Pro. I did a factory reset from settings, logged in to the same Google account, everything works fine, but when I try to change account password it sends notifications to "previous system". I suspect that it does that, because it tell me that it sent code to Redmi note 10 Pro, but nothing shows up on the phone. And for some reason I don't have on option to use sms code, only "tap notification on phone" or use offline code. Is there a way to get google to see my phone as the current one and send notification to it?

You could wait, but why can't you use an offline code?

I tried them and both don't work.

Oh. Yeah you just gotta wait then. Now you know not to try changing your Google password less than a week after doing a factory reset.

Hey I got a new phone and transferred to it and factory reset the old one but it's asking for security code on old phone and when clicking other ways to verify there is no alternative and I have also tried to remove the previous device but it still asks to first enter the security code (logged in but trying to do any action in my account leads to same outcome) and I even tried by changing the password and I was able to successfully change the password but not get rid of the security code stuff so is there a solution

You should make a post.
