I stupidly altered my gmail address from @googlemail to @gmail (I'm in the UK) and then realised that you can't change the account on the phone without a factory reset on the phone so undid it and deleted the new @gmail account from my phone (keeping the original @googlemail one).
Now I keep getting the message that Google talk authentication has failed and I can't download anything from the market - any help out there?
Change it back
I did the same and then had to log in to my gmail account and change it back to googlemail and its fine again now :0
check out the google forum here which is also discussing it

I did the same but ended up factory resetting the phone and reconfiguring it for gmail.com.
It's a pain but it allows you to use Picasa sync and this is something I've wanted f'rages!

Thanks for the response but I have changed the account back to @googlemail from my laptop and it's still not working - as appears to be the case for others form the thread you connected me to

I don't have any purchased apps but Titanium Backup restored my apps pretty successfully.
Picasa sync seems to send small versions of your pictures to your phone. Certainly don't have 2gb of pictures on my phone as I would have noticed this happening.
Well I gave up and did a factory reset back to @googlemail and all seems well. A relatively painless process except that the desire backup routine seems to save a rather eclectic selection of your settings

Hey guys!
Same here. Loving this ROM just awesome but no market downloads and GTALK authentification failed.
Thing is I have reinstalled the ROM and was able to log into gtalk for 5 mins then it is logging out and can't go back in!
Anybody got a fix for this?
Thanks for all the hard work from the XDA devs! U guys rock.
hey guys! i have recently installed in my hd2 the 2.3.3 android version and i also have the same problem with google talk authentication. How can i fix the problem? Thank u
Possible fix
I just stumbled across this thread because I was getting the same error on a Mytouch 3G slide and I found a way to fix it. all I had to do was force the phone to authenticate thru wifi and not the cell network once, then I was able to authenticate successfully the regular way after that. the way I did it on my phone was to remove the sim, but on a CDMA phone like yours you could try to activate airplane mode (settings>Wireless & networks), then turn on wifi and connect to a working wifi connection, log into the google talk app, then disable airplane mode.
I had this very problem and fortunately came across a solution courtesy of pascalsg which worked for me that was in the BoyPPC -ShiftPDA Android ROM for HD2. The problem with Talk authentication seemed to interfere with my Market downloading causing any 'starting downloads' to just hang.
First I enabled chat in the Gmail account on the desktop. Then I cleared data on the phone \settings\applications\manage applications\all (for Google Backup Transport, Google Partner Set Up, Google Services Framework and Market as per the solution above. Then I rebooted the phone. Then for some reason there was no authentication issue. I then went into the application settings of Talk on the phone and turned off "automatic sign in. Now there are no repeated error messages about authentication failure and the Android Market works as it should.
google fails
Try a different SD rom, I used americandroid and everything worked on my HTC hd2 now on another rom and Google fails again

This worked perfectly for me. Couldn't log into google talk or download apps from marketplace. Used airplane mode then turned on wifi only, then connected to google talk instantly. After that, I can turn airplane mode off and log in to google talk and download apps.
[solved] talk authentication failed on android
SOLUTION:
NOTE: You WON'T lose all your installed apps if you do this (at least I didn't). However, if you clear the data for Settings, you will lose your preferences. Try doing it w/o clearing the data for settings, then if that fails do it again and clear the Settings data.
1. Go to Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications
2. Press All (or Show All, etc.)
3. Clear Data for the following Apps (if data is clearable):
- Account and Sync Settings
- com.google.andriod.feedback
- Gmail (and Gmail Storage if it is there)
- Google Services Framework
- Google Voice
- Maps
- Market & Market Updater
- Network Location
- News and Weather
- Search
- Sound Recorder
- Talk
- TTS Service
- Voice Search
- VPN Services
- World Newspapers
- YouTube
- Settings (Settings will close when you clear its data)
I don't use the email client app (not the Gmail app but the one simply called 'Email'), so I don't know if you'll need to clear its data or not. If all else fails, try it (I imagine you'll lose any downloaded emails).
4. Clear the data for any apps associated with any of the above listed apps.
5. Clear the data for any other applications affiliated with Google or your Google account.
6. Clear the data for any applications that aren't uninstallable, i.e. 'built-in' applications.
7. Reboot and you're done. Google Talk should work correctly now.
I'm sure this is overkill. Some of these apps may not have anything to do with the problem but when I cleared the data for them and rebooted, Google Talk worked correctly. Also, I am using an Archos 70 IT so you might have some different requirements for this procedure on your phone/tablet. BTW I got the Google Talk error when I changed the password on my primary Google account.
Good luck!

thanks man !
I have rooted my fire, sucessfully installed the market, gmail app and youtube however I am unable to connect my gmail account to any of them. During the initial login process of signing into my account. I keep getting this error that says "Cant establish a reliable data connection to the server". It does it with all 3 of those apps. I know my wifi is working as im able to access the internet. Im wondering if maybe i need to reinstall the google services framework or something?
Have any of you seen this and been able to work around it? Im able to run all apps except google ones.
Thanks
okay i figured it out, had to install the syncsettings, turn off background data, restarted, then reinstalled googleframework, restarted, turned background data back on. then it let me sign in.
weird!!
Anyone have other tips for dealing with this issue on a wifi-only Kindle? Nothing I've tried has worked. There's a so-called YouTube hack, but I don't even know what version of YouTube to install that might work to let me setup my Google account without going through the same interface that the Play Store uses. Thanks
hi Guys,
jst Got Htc onex and couldnt use the google play store
error msg is
cant establish a reliable connection etc
You using Data or Wifi?
If using Data make sure your APN settings are correct.
If WiFi check that the connection is stable.
Also check other network stuff such as browsing the internet and see if that throws an error, if the browser doesn't, then its Obviously Google Play
I reported this morning almost same problem (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36261010#post36261010) and I removed my gmail account, cleared data on app/google play, google play services, updater and restarted the phone. Then I registered again the account and it is functioning well now.
See if it helps.
So here is my story,
I've been trying to the the US Market on my devices, but not a single method worked, I use a US VPN, I paid money for that and it didn't work, I deleted/uninstalled/forced stopped Google Play Store and Services. I used Market Helper which changes my phone model and carrier in the Play Store settings, but nothing worked.
Seems like the problem is from my Google Account itself, having made it in Saudi Arabia back in 2005 could be the problem? I live here in SA and I have other friends who used the methods I used and worked for them. I used another account with just VPN and it got in the US Play Store, it was my first attempt in that account but I don't want to change from my main account.
Also if I go to, for example, Google Play Games on the web to try and install it, even with a VPN, I get that it's not compatible with any of my devices.
I used the VPN to watch Netflix and such, so I'm sure it's working, that's why I suspect the problem is from my Google Account.
All my addresses in Google Wallet are US addresses.
Some of my friends can even access the US Play Store without a VPN or anything.
Anyone got a solution and would like to share it here would be highly appreciated,
Thanks.
Currently, Google Play recognizes the location by IP address. Have you tried to clear the data of Google Play, and make sure it is connected to VPN before you launch it.

I did try that, worked with my other accounts, not with my main one :x
After many attempts, I managed to somehow get in the US Market using VPN on my PC and now I see Google Play Games compatible with all my devices. But still, I can't access the US Market from my phone using my main account.
Hello Guys,
I bought the OnePlus 3 and after using it for maybe 30 minutes I started experiencing "Google Play is not answering" messages while I was downloading the apps I wanted - I wanted to start fresh, not migrate from my OnePlus One. I contacted support, they told me that I should do a hard reset - I did wipe data and cache with the factory reset option, and since then the phone is not passing the "checking connection" phase. After a while I can skip it, and the wifi is working fine - I can browse, log in to Facebook i.e., however for Google services (Chrome, Play Store) I cannot connect, I cannot add my Google account, so basically nothig Google related is working. Do you guys have any idea how this can be, and what can happen?
Other question: Support told me to replace the phone, they want it back now... will I get a replacement immediately, or will I need to wait for weeks with my money pending? How is this with OnePlus, do you have any experience?
I'm having the same problem with Google services, can't sign in to any of the Google Apps.
Any solution?
