Hi.
I found cerberus (very usefull application that helps to find lost/stolen phone) and it's using C2DM connection (so we have to be logged to google account). But when someone stole our phone, he will definitely change Sim card and our google account will be logged off. I suggested to the author to automatic login (after changing sim) to earlier defined google account to not loose tracking ability.
I got an answer that "I don't think that would be possible, sorry..."
It is really impossible ?? Can anyone know the way to log in to google account by program ?? Or is already such an app that doing it??
Sorry for my bad English :/

I just changed to MiniCM7 2.1.3 rom ,
and I noticed I had no market,
fine, I just downloaded an apk file of the market but when I open it
It tells me that:
"
You must add an account to the device to continue.
Do you want to add one now?
[Yes] [No]
"
I press Yes , ready to add this mysterious account then it just exit the market and go back to the previous page without doing anything..
I also have a picture but I cant post it here cause im new in this forum
so if anyone wants me to PM him the picture just comment
I think that maybe he wants me to add my google account to the phone,
but I dont know how, or maybe I'm wrong,
Can please someone help me?
thanks in advance to everyone who can help !
Yes you need a google acount to log in to the market.

Open The Market (Program) And Sign In on Google . ( Background Data Enable ! ) And If Yor Oprator Is Blocked , You Need Market Enabler !
Have You A G Account ???
I'm stuck with the same problem. My phone was already hooked up to my Gmail account, and I even purchased something a couple of days ago... however now when I try to open up the Market I get
"You must add an account to the device to continue.
Do you want to add one now?
[Yes] [No]"
Whichever I press the window just closes. I've tried a new Market APK as well as Market Enabler and nothing works.

Got my phone stolen..
Google doesn't give any help on removing google account.
Is there a way to remotely remove the google account from the stolen phone?
Says it's used market using my account so kinda in a hurry..
any methods will be fine.. no longer in my possession so ANYTHING!
please help..
What about changing your google password?
If you change your password, as mentioned, the account will no longer work on the phone without the new password. All of the data that has already synced will still be visible to whoever has your phone, but they will no longer be able to use your account.
Unfortunately there's probably not much else you can do. You can log into the Market on your computer and install some kind of phone tracking software, but it will have to be able to remotely enable GPS. You'll probably have to install the software before changing the password.

thanks for the advise..
as expected, google said change password as well, which I did, and they still somehow managed to access the account just yesterday.. lol..
just guess i'll have to delete it or something..
It might be worth giving this a try if you know the phone's still in use and you want to track it down!

Hey all, I have stock,non-rooted,locked, OTA'd rezound.
I've tried everything in the general forums for this problem, so now I'll come here and ask to see if anyone has any other possible solutions.
I've done multiple factory resets today, and tried several different methods of re-adding my google account (which is a google apps for your domain account) so it's not @gmail.com but @mydomain.com
Everything works great, sync, gmail app, gtalk, youtube.. you name it. Great. Even the market place, for downloading 'free' apps.
As soon as I try and download an app I have to pay for I get a little window that pops up that says "Google sign-in You entered the wrong password or your account has changed. Please re-enter your password. Username [email protected]" and then just fails to accept my actual password. (i've tried changing my password a few times too!)
Here's everything I've tried:
1. Clearing the Market App Data and Cache.
2. FactoryReset: try and use the old market app before it gets updated.
3. Youtube account issue: disabled the youtube service on my google app domain, and factory reset- and tried again... no dice.
4. Tried putting on a real @gmail.com domain, and that works just fine. try and switch to @mydomain and it fails again.
I've done a factory-reset before every different style of attempt. I'm guessing something else is going on :-\
When I logon to the market through the web, I can purchase apps and they install without a problem! So it's something to do with the market app.
Anyway, just looking for any other ideas I may have overlooked. You're a pretty thorough community so I think I can trust you all would have something for me to try!
Before my factory-reset, everything worked fine with my google apps domain account.
TL;DR: My google apps domain account I normally use won't let me purchase apps on the marketplace anymore, it says the password has changed but all other google services work just fine!
I remember reading something way back when I first got the phone in late November about people having issues with the Market app. I never had an issue so I didn't pay much attention to it but you should be able to find a thread about it from back then.
Something about using a different apk? Or maybe deleting the app and redownloading it?
Sorry I don't have the actual answer but I thought I could at least point you in the right direction until someone else does.
EDIT: This may not be the same issue but one of the solutions that suggests to clear cache may help you. Can't hurt to try it out.

Are you using Google Two-Step login verification?
Did you accidentally leave yourself logged in to another computer, like at work, where somebody else might have gained access to your account?

Great questions:
No I've turned 2-step verification off.... what if I turn it on, and try and get a different password out of it? I'll give it a go.
Account is definitely not compromised. good to go here.
Break Through Achieved...
My Google Wallet account has been suspended, because when I changed my password I used the google domains administrator panel, and not my google account 'change password'. this made google think the administrator changed the password because the account was compromised.
google wallet has a lengthy but acceptable process for regaining access to your account.
I'll go update all the general forums with this if it works... thanks for all your patience.
Also, google.com/wallet shows a good explination of why all other apps work fine, and not purchases...
Google Wallet Account Reinstatement
Your Google Wallet account is currently suspended. The account was suspended as a precautionary measure to protect your payment information because Google detected that an administrator at your organization initiated a password reset for your email address. However, this suspension only affects your access to Google Wallet, and you should still have access to your other Google Apps services such as Gmail, Calendar, and Sites.
If you would like to reinstate Google Wallet on your Google Apps account, please contact us. You will be required to verify your identity to reinstate your Wallet account.
You may also wish to sign up for a new Google Wallet account using a personal e-mail address, rather than your Google Apps account. Creating a new Wallet account using a personal email address will reduce future suspensions of your Google Wallet account for password changes. If you don't have an alternative email address, you can create a new email address with Gmail for free.

I'm having the same problem (using google apps account, admin reset password, no purchasing market apps etc etc)
When I log in to google wallet, I see the message you posted above, with a link to click to contact google. However, this link just redirects endlessly to the same message.
Can you remember how you managed to get in contact with google to have the suspension lifted?
Thanks
Sul
Here's the link to the account reinstatement application form:

I had the same issue a few weeks ago. I just emailed Google wallet help support telling them the problem and by the next day I got a reply saying something like "we can now confirm that your Google wallet is now working and able to make purchases" Sure enough they fixed it and haven't had a problem since.

Where did you even email them? It's like an endless loop on their help center where you can't get to an actual contact form, just has to match one of their issues. I swear while I like a lot of google services, their support leaves very little to be desired.
I recently went to install an app to my phone from my PC and when I clicked on the drop down box to select which device I noticed there was a N7000 on T Mobile network.
From what I believe this is a Galaxy Note and T Mobile is an English service provider. I have never owned a Galaxy Note and I am living in New Zealand.
Of course I have changed my passwords etc but is there anyway to remove this device from my list of devices?
Thanks in advance for any help
I'm having the same problem. A device was added to "My Devices" in the Google Play store. The device is registered in the Russian Federation.
There is no way for an Android user to remove devices from their account, even if the account was hacked! I'm sure you discovered that the only humans at Google that you can speak to for support are is The Google Play store area. But they won't take ownership of the problem. I was referred to Gmail support, but there appears to be no contact Gmail support. Only Google forums. I'm going to start another thread on my particular issue.
Did you have success in resolving your problem, or advice on how to contact Google?

Unfortunately there seems to be no way to directly contact Gmail support. However the Google Contact Us page has a phone number for their HQ. Maybe that would help put you in the right direction? http://www.google.com/contact/
Hi so today i logged on my pc.
And google notifies me of suspicious activity on my youtube account.
I never had this happen before and don't know what to do.
Im using a custom rom and gapps with the youtube app as a system app.
Google said they prevented the log in and in the email states that it was used with an application.
I reversed looked up the ip and got some name and addresses but idk if this helps.
what should i do to prevent this?
First make sure it's not a false alarm. It can mean a few different things. Then you should reset ( change ) your Google account password. After that you can either deactivate the account, and make a new one. Which can be a PIA if you have many things connected to your Google account, as many of us do. Or just keep a close watch on the account activity.
