[Q] Change Android Store Email Account - Optimus One, P500, V General

Hey everyone, I closed the Gmail account that my phone was using for the Android Market and now every time I start up my phone I get invalid email messages and can't use the Android Market.
I have looked and looked but cannot figure out how to remove the email adress and add the new one. When I try to remove it it says I cannot because some apps are using it.
I'm on the OpenOptimus Rom at the moment.
Any help is appreciated, I really want to download text to speech by Sonalight!

You could try wiping "Accounts and Sync Settings" and uninstalling all google apps (If you are rooted). Then simply downloads GAPPS and flash. Otherwise => install Titanium Backup, backup all your apps, wipe data and restore everything (Except google apps and "Accounts and Sync Settings") using Titanium Backup.

Edit: I decided to update the rom and everything cleared. Thanks anyways everyone!

Help! Rooted HTC EVO 3D Issues!

So I successfully rooted my phone last night and this morning I decided to remove some bloatware. Somewhere during my exploration I deleted a file which caused all the text to on my widgets to appear bigger and in red. I did a Nand Restore and a factory reset. I'm still rooted BUT I don't have my Market Place, GMail, I can't sync GMail. I go to "Accounts and Sync" settings and there is no GMail add on...only regular mail. I downloaded through the regular phone browser the Gmail APK and Android Market APK and nothing. I click on the Market....it asks if I wanna sync an account...I say yes and it takes me back to the home screen. Gmail...same thing. Help will be greatly appreciated
EDIT (7-30-11 @ 1:10pm)- I did a Nand restore, apps and all and everything is back to normal....BUT still no Gmail or Android Market

Get the zip, flash it through recovery. Your problems will be over.

problem accessing into market?

I have recently install a new Rom in my x8.... it seems that I can't access into the market....
It says that I have to create a new account... when I click yes... nothing come out... can anyone help me!!.. my Rom is update-FroyoBread.v023b... pls help me
You may need to ask this question in the thread for your rom.
I assume you have a Google account, correct?
Are you signed in on your phone under "accounts and sync"?
Market needs a working Google account to function. You may meed to get to a computer and verify or create a Google account.

You can try and goto Settings---Applications---Manage Applications---Show All Applications
---goto Market and then clear the cache, and the Clear Data. Then open up Market again
and then try to reconnect your device. Again, you must have your device connected to an active Gmail account in order to use the market successfully.

Hmm, In this case ...
BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP all other Apps other than GTALK, keep it safe.
Do following Steps
1) Reboot in to CWM Recovery
2) Do full Wipe of Data and Cache
3) Go to Advanced and Wipe Dalvik Cache
4) Reboot and Then try and Login Again ....
Hope this works ... If worked then
5) Install all missing Apps.
You are ready to go
if not I think Full Flash again from ODIN is the last option
Hmmm ....
Did that but after restoring data of other system apps it again stopped working so got hint that problem is because some other application. Again wiped off and
Kept on restoring some system applications till I figured out which application is causing problem ..
Google framework services is the culprit took couple of hours to find it but now it works

Disable auto app reinstal after flashing?

Hello bought S3 from Three and when i flash stock room it always reinstalls these apps: Facebook, BBC iPlayer, Twitter, and 1 other cant remember. I know that google din't backup to my account, that setting is disabled. but when i flashed CM9 it din't install any apps, that happens only from Stock Room's. So it must keep them some where in device storage as a backup, hm i'm confused
If you put your Google account details in during the initial setup, play store will reinstall your apps.
Skip the initial setup and then add your Google account later. That way the apps won't download automatically.

Actually the setup wizard asks you if you:
1) Want to allow google to restore your previous settings and
2) want to allow google to backup your settings from now on.
Both on the same screen. I turn these off as google backup wastes valuable batteryl
Thats the thing it reinstalls these apps before the setup wizzard

But when installing CM9 rom all ok no updates. so something with Stock Rom. Maybe in couple of days or next week i will Flash another rom maybe i can get some videos. I also tried in the backup setting to tick and untick "Back up my data" then i'm getting a message "Stop backing up ... and delete all copies from Google Servers?" but still nothing stil the same.
Also i'm not sure if this is related but also on SD card getting these 2 files: efsbackup.tar.gz and efsdev-mmcblk0p3.img.gz
No seriously WTF just installed omega 9 same thing happen, before the setup wizard screen, it's installing apps Three, Facebook, Twitter, Smart Care, BBC iPlayer.
Ok using Root explorer, i found a folder "preload" and it has all the files includes so will delete and report back when i install new rom, does it restore again (from some where)
**** sake... just installed MIUI rom same thing.... what the hell samsung did....

How to remove an exisiting Google account without wiping and WITHOUT root?

My phone was just stolen and so I am temporarily using an older Gingerbread device I had laying around. The problem is that my wife used it for a period of time and so its "locked" to her Google account. I realize that with root its fairly easy to disassociate the device from the primary Google account, but I have been unable to find out how to do it WITHOUT root. Can anyone help?? I really don't want to fully wipe the device if possible! The phone in question is running 2.3.4.

You can't do that if it is your only account.

That is incorrect. You are unable to delete the primary account associated with your phone, that is why I posted this thread. Does anyone know of another way??

Even if you have two (or more) accounts it will not allow you to delete the "primary" one without doing a factory reset.....
Hmmm this might help you. =)

So the link provided does give instructions, however the problem is as follows:
"Remove an account
You can remove an account to delete it and all information associated with it from your phone, including email, contacts, settings, and so on.
You can’t remove the first Google Account you signed into on the phone, except by deleting all personal information from your phone. See Privacy settings to learn now to do that."
I am still stuck here, does anyone know how to sort this out?
Not sure if this still works...I did this when I had my G1...go to Settings>applications click on all scroll down to Gmail and delete data.
Unfortunately that didnt help...
What else do you see in the application list? Is there a google accounts? Or maybe Google apps? Anything that starta with Google? Try delete that data

So the list of services that include "Google" in the title include the following:
1) Gmail
2) Google Backup Transport
3) Google Calendar Sync
4) Google Contacts Sync
5) Google Partner Setup
6) Google Play Movies and TV
7) Google Play Store
8) Google Search
9) Google Services Framework
10) Google Sky Map
11) Google Translate
12) Google Voice
yeah, you cannot delete the account ... You have only option to factory reset and again create a new one.
I did the same way... If any one knows let me know.
Perhaps there is another way : I've don't tested it. You´re Phone must be rooted. You can delete the file " accounts.db. Find it in data > system >accounts.db. and Reboot the Phone.
But you will do it on your own Risk. Imho a Factory-Reset is the better way. :good:

What is it that you're worried about losing by doing a reset?
