so as the title says, I want to create gmail accounts, google will ask for a phone number verification, before, it asked me to write a phone number so they can send the sms verification, now they just reach for my sms card, how to manaully write a phone number like it used to?
 
this is probably part of a newer verification process. Google changes the signup flow quite often and my advice would be to use the normal account creation flow and a phone number you legitimately control. The options shown can vary by device, location, and account history.
 
i get where you're coming from, google's been tightening up on their verification process. if you're looking for a workaround, you might want to check out services like SMS-Activate or 5SIM for temporary numbers, but honestly, i find that LegitSMS has been pretty reliable for these kinds of verifications across a lot of countries. just make sure to keep an eye on the terms, since google can be pretty picky about multiple accounts.
 
sounds like you are trying to do this on a phone or emulator and its reading the device info directly. if you pull the sim card out of the phone first it usually forces the setup wizard back to the manual entry screen. or just switch to a desktop browser with a clean user agent and a good proxy. another trick is trying to sign up through the youtube app instead of the main gmail/google setup screen, sometimes that still lets you type the number in manually.
 
You can bypass this by using web browser using mac fingerprint and mobile/residential proxy with ios tcp fingerprint. There's a thread showing the full process on other forum but i cannot share the link here.

Search using google with this keyword:
