Wonder if anyone has any thoughts on this ?:
I added an additional google account to my phone to access some google drive files. i then deleted the account in the normal way and it does not show it as you would expect. However today i used my PC to change the password of that account and I got a notification of this password change on my phone.
I rechecked and the account is not listed.

i've searched this forum for this issue, and found nothing.
my issue is, for some reason, i've changed my google account password from pc. after changing the password, my desire won't sync with all my google mail, calendar, etc.. is there any way to change the google account setting on my desire to match the new password?
Hi,
Remove and add new. Its 1 minute job.
i've try to remove the account. then there's a pop up says "this account is required by some applications. you can only delete it by resetting the phone to factory defaults (which deletes all your personal data). you do that in the settings application, under about phone".
i don't want to loose all my data and apps. is there any way to change the password on my phone without resetting the phone?
Whenever I swap SIM cards in my phone, it always asks for the passwords for my Google accounts again (for security purposes).
I wonder if doing this will help you out with your issue.
Regards,
Dave
thanks for the idea.. i'll borrow my friend sim card to test whether it works...
Can someone help in using my gmail account on android?
I had setup my gmail account on my android few months ago, when there was no 2-Way Password verification.
But now, I have setup the 2-way password verification method, which resulted into different password for this gmail app.
Now when I am opening gmail app. on my mobile, it's showing me same old messages as the password for gmail app is changed now.
Can someone help in changing the password which I set earlier in my Gmail App.
When I am removing my gmail account, it says, this is the Sync account, which can't be removed until you set the phone to factory settings, which will remove all my stored data on phone.
I'm in trouble.
Try uninstalling the gmail app, and re-install it.
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.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
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..
Sent from my HTC Desire S
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!
Hello All,
I am very much new to using HTC wildfire S as an android smart phone. I have purchased this an year ago,though.
I will come to the point with out much discussion.Your help is much appreciated in filing a bug against HTC Keyboard sense or wrong password authentication mechanism.
Step i followed:
1.Day before yesterday, I have rooted my phone and i have got all the data back again from recovery.
2.Once the phone is reset, it was prompting me to set up a new gmail account to perform syncing of contacts and mails.
3.I have given my old crenditals of gmail and the sync worked.
4.Today, I got a message from google that, my gmail account is being accessed from canada maliciously.So, it prompted me to reset my password along with SMS verification code.This made my gmail account login stronger. During this process, I have reset my gmail account password. ( the same account is being used by my htc wildfire S phone).
5.Now, my wildfire S is not able to recognize my new password to gmail account. Neither it recognizes my old password.
6.I have tried different key board input mechanisms to make sure that i am entering correct password.
7.Now, I am exhausted and thus i am writing this post.
Please help me.
I am suspecting as a bug in htc while syncing with gmail authentication servers.
I had faced similar problem a month ago while connecting to facebook from my HTC Wildfire S phone. My new gmail account works fine from the dolphin mini browser.But, it doesnot work from native gmail and facebook applications.

Tried with another gmail account.. Now it is working fine.
As I said in my previous post that, my original gmail account with which i had registered my mobile is still not working.
However, I have registered another gmail account to sync with contacts.With my second gmail account, I am able to sync the contacts from google servers.Also, with out a registered gmail account, i am unable to download apps from htc Appstore as well as Android Market place.
Now, I tried deleting my first gmail account, which is not working since the time i have changed its password.It says that you cannot remove the account as it is being used by other programs. Restore phone to default settings.
With out resetting my phone, How can i delete my original gmail account which is of no use.
Thanks and Regards,
Sriram
Hello,
I have my main google account added to my phone, today I tried adding my tablets account to the dual messenger section of Location History.
I went to:
Settings -> Location -> Location History (second account, one with orange and 2 circles).
This gave the option to add an account. I added my second google account and now it shows in the location history, BUT NOT under the google accounts section. So I am unable to remove it.
I did try adding it to the phone as a google account and then deleting it hoping it would remove but it is still showing under the location history and there is no option there to be able to remove it.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
