My wife has an evo but my question is she got a pop up on her phone saying Google sign in and then it goes on to say that you entered the wrong password or your account has changed. Please re-enter your password. And it has the username filled in as her correct username and every time I try to type in her password and hit sign in it says authenticating and then takes you right back to that screen. I have never seen this before. She hasn't changed her password or even messed with anything. I always do everything for her and I go into her accounts and sync and her gmail ACct is of course not working. Anybody know what is going? Why would her password not be working anymore? Thanks for the help.
Ok guys I figured it out. I went to log into her gmail acct on the computer and ot said that there was some suspicious activity on the acct and I needed to enter my phone number to get a code sent. I then entered the code and it prompted me to change my password. I then went to her phone and typed in the new password and it works fine. What was this all about? Google having some security problems?

I checked off save password in the email account setup. I'm using .mac for my email. Whenever it goes out for my mail it asks me to enter my password, I usually have to enter it at least 3 times before it actually will connect and get my email. Even if I try and send email from this account it asks a few times for my password before it actually sends the email. I've deleted my account and started over, but the same things keeps happening. I just want to fetch my mail with not interaction from me,lol.
When I setup my aol mail I didn't use the AOl from the list of accunts (if I did it would never work), I used imap/pop and it works fine now. It doesn't ask for a password.
My .mac is the most important, anyone know a way to get my password to stay saved? So everytime it gets my mail, or I try to send a mail I don't have to enter my password around 3 times?
Am I the only one experiencing this? Any workarounds?
Got anything odd in your password? Like spaces or punctuation?
no, it's actually the same exact password as my aol account. That never asks for a password, only my .mac asks.
I was able to setup my email on my t-mobile, and now it does not ask me for my password
So I just hard-reset my phone and I entered my email info (username and password) at the start of my phone. Now it keeps popping back up every 5 minutes or so wanting me to kinda reconfirm them, I get the Username and password. None of my emails will come thru. help?
I just hard-reset again and it still coming up it says "incoming email password, please cheat you username and password and try again"
I know my password is right Ive retyped it 12 times now, anyone have any ideas, I need my email for work!
I just tried my other two yahoo account, all the same thing
Could be your internet provider blocking port 25 (SMTP) or 110 (POP3)? Check what ports are you using in the incoming/outgoing mail server configuration and ask your ISP if those ports are blocked!
I recently changed my gmail password on my computer, but I cant find the setting to change the password in my phone so my account will sync on my phone, without factory resetting my phone. Any help would be appreciated.
Try going to accounts and sync and just add another google account with you new password just make sure you check all the boxes so everything will sync correctly. You'll prob just have to have two accounts like that until you can backup everything and delete the main account.

You should be able to go to accounts and sync, delete the current google account, add new account, then put in the correct info.
I added another google account then synced it, but when i tired to delete the other one I need to reset the password to it said I have to format the phone because my apps on my phone need that gmail account to function correctly....it let me delete my other account I made tho. Any other ideas or easier way to do this? It seems it should be simple to change the password set up in my phone.....
Try opening talk or market on your phone, it well ask for new password.
It is how it works for me..

I got it........the solution was for me to leave 3g on and I got a box to pop after a bit asking to re-enter my password for google because my account could not be authenticated. Hope this helps anyone in the future having a similar issue.
Glad you got it worked out!
I have been trying to add gmail to my phone and it keeps telling me my password and username do not match. But in fact they do match.
Anyone know what the problem may be? It is the only account doing it. I have had this account on there before so I know it will work.
Thanks.
Figured it out. Had a device specific password for some reason.
Hi all,
Having issues changing my password in the official/default email app of the G4 - got a notification from my Exchange account (although it happens with them all!) to change my password to match the server. No problem.
Only everytime I try and change the password I get a login error saying "incorrect information". The problem seems to be that when it takes me to the settings of the email app, it deletes out the domain name for some reason, and doesn't let you edit to put it back in!
This seems like a real pain in the ass bug - the only way to get it syncing again is to remove the account and set it up from scratch again...not ideal when forced to change your password frequently.
Can someone try this and see if they're affected for me too please?
In the default LG G4 email app go to:
Settings>*email account*>Advanced settings>Exchanges server settings...
Now you should see where the password is asking to be changed - has the domain been deleted? If you change the password, does it work?
Honestly, between this and the constant missed screen taps I'm very close to sending this back! Any help would be really appreciated!
Anyone?
I have the same issue.... When cancelling however the new password worked....
