has anyone ever and or currently experiencing login issues? currently getting this message and i've reset my password 3 times now
lol @ 177 views and not one response...guess I wont be updating my phone tonight
I've had an issue with htcdev before, not your issue though. Send htcdev a message on Twitter and they'll help you out, or just create a new account.

You know, you would think that if Asus was making an Android Tablet, the one email client they could get right was Gmail. This has happened before and has seemed to fix itself, but all of the sudden I have gotten a notification on the dock that says "Can't Sign In", and when I tap it I get a message that says please reenter credentials. I enter my email and password, which I know are correct, and it says cannot sign in incorrect user name or password. Anyone got any clue on this? It's really annoying. I know I can just use the Gmail app, but I don't like the way it looks. I like when everything looks stock.

Hard to know what's going on, I had a similar problem when I installed a new ROM and forgot to install Gapps, confused the heck out of me until I remembered. Sounds like something is corrupted, why not root, unlock and install one of the excellent new ROMs being offered.
I'm rooted but I'm not sure if my CWM works correctly or not.

Been at the hospital for several days. My older brother was in a motorcycle accident and now I'm waiting to see if there's enough brain function left to continue treatment. He has and EVO 3d on Sprint. I need some help to get past his screen lock (numeric pin) so I can go through his contacts. This may get modded down but I'm desperate. Can anyone help me?

Sorry to hear that.
Is the device rooted?
I don't know his gmail and the phone is bone stock. Thx.
You could factory reset his phone, but that would also erase his contacts...
Exactly.
I need to contact some of his friends and I need their numbers off his phone. Can't factory reset.
Call sprint or whoever and act like him tell them u need to reset your password bcuz u forgot it and u can't unlock your phone they might ask for his ss # just a thought..good luck

Can't bypass, gonna have to try different pins he may have used. Sprint will not know his pin.

If contacts all what you need. try to login to his gmail account and contacts will be there because they are typically synched with his gmail account.
Your other option to see his bill statement either online or on paper. you will see his contacts phone numbers typically there with location but not name.
Install android commander on Windows. Connect to your computer and if he had usb debugging "checked" you will be able to access everything via. Windows. Long shot but worth a try. I did this when I smashed my screen and needed to get everything off of it before I sent it in. I'm sorry to hear about your brother.

Normally I might chide you for being in the wrong section, but you've been through enough. I'm truly sorry about your brother and I wish I knew a way to unlock his phone. Life sucks sometimes.

Maybe Google can allow access if you write them? Or at least pretend to be him using his ss#?

Nice Rom. I'm loving the 4G.
Sorry to hear about your brother. But this belongs in the question and answer. Not development

Really bro? I'm so sick of the 300 mods we have in the 3vo section! Is it in the wrong section? Yes. Did you have to say what u said? NO! I would have done the same damn thing because he's getting answers faster this way. Go be a **** somewhere else...Anyway you might want to try doing the old trick from the early android days. Call his phone from another one and answer it. When u answer it hit the home button and see where that gets you. Hope this helps and God Bless your family

So sorry to hear about your brother. I work for Sprint and unfortunately there is no way to get around a pattern/passcode lock on the phone without a gmail username/password or a hard reset. What you can do is check the sd card to see if there is a vcard file on it. It's possible he made a backup of the contacts on there. The file will end with .vcf. If you see any files like that put them on a computer and import them into another gmail account that you have access to. Hope this helps and I wish your brother luck to recover from his accident.
You could use Juopunutbear to get S-OFF and then flash a custom recovery from fastboot and then either pull his GMail account information from there or at least bypass the lockscreen.

There is no way to bypass the lock screen or get gmail info through the recovery. Plus I'm pretty sure the Juopunutbear bootloader unlocker hard resets the device.
Couldn't you pull the data partition with a recovery menu?
if you know is gmail, then attempt to do a password recovery of it. if u manage to get the password then you'll find all is contacts most likely synced with Google contacts.
check if hes still loggged into his gmail on his PC.
if hes using Firefox, he might of have had firefox save his password on his pc (assuming he as a computer) in the firefox options u can look at a master list of saved passwords and hopefully his gmail would be included...
found a link here: i havent tried it but its worth a shot.
http://droidlessons.com/how-to-reset-your-android-lock-screen-password/
If your familiar with rooting and modding. then maybe u can get clockworkmod on there and from there do a dirty flash of MeanROM or or CM9. there by flashing over the lock screen and pattern while keeping data.... this should be a last resort...
If he has his own computer you could try loging into his Play store and instal an app called : Screen Lock Bypass (search it on Play store).
If this doesnt help then your best luck is to search on Google "bypass android pin lock" and hopefully you find some methods.
And good luck to your brother i hope he gets better. =)
I was able to figure out his yahoo password which allowed me to reset his gmail password! I got his contacts. Thanks!
Anyway I will try to unlock the phone later when this all settles down so one of his sons can at least use it. (Their Mom passed away last summer, they are in their early 20's)
Thank you so much guys!
Hello xda, iv'e done extensive searching on this site and google, however have not found an answer to what im looking for so please forgive me/point me in right direction if allready discussed somewhere...my friend has an unrooted htc evo 4g on sprint and his ex gf somehow managed to figure out how to completely spy on his phone without ever having physical access to it, which until now i didnt think was possible unless you install faulty apps on your own, which he hasnt. he received a blank mms message followed by a basic one word text from her saying "LOL"...now his battery drains fast, everything runs slow on an otherwise fairly quick phone, and his ex keeps sending messages proving she knows everything thats on his phone. she was even able to find a private video he shot with his new gf of them (no further info needed lol) on his phone, and sent him texts commenting on how she was going to do the same moves she saw in the vid with all his friends for revenge. every half hour or so she sends a text telling him his exact location...sends comments on txts he receives...ect...so what is this? how would i find it? how would i delete it/block it from ever happening? im not a complete noob but beginner/intermediate for sure, any help would be greatly appreciated.
(i know i could root it and wipe everything/install custom roms ect, but he wants to avoid rooting for some reason, however if its the only way any helpful info from here would help me convince him)

nothing unusual just ended up returning to stock, re doing everything, and hopefully privacy guarded it
This is my first post at XDA. Longtime viewer but never posted.
I've had the Note a couple days now, but for the first time tried quick command. Low and behold, it's not working. I can write, but eventually it just closes before even recognizing the command. I've had no success with any of the stock commands.
I have tried clearing quick commands data as well as creating a command. Even when I try creating a command it will not let me select "Done."
All other S Pen functions work. Any help? Anything else I should try?

Is yours doing the same? Shutting down and not recognizing the command?

UPDATE!
UPDATE:
Wednesday: I stopped in a local Verizon kiosk at my mall and tried the quick commands on another Note. Worked perfectly. They said I'd have to call Customer Service to get a replacement. (Note: The employee didn't even know about the feature!) So I called Verizon (*611) and spoke with a "head tech" (whatever that means). He had no idea what was going on esp. given the factory reset I tried. He said the only option was to get a new device or try a different Gmail account (which I really don't want to move my stuff to a new one). Because the Note is an "iconic" device, they wouldn't ship me one unless I prepaid for it (then would be reimbursed when they received my "defective" phone. So I planned to pick up a new one on Thursday.
Thursday: I picked up a new one. After logging into my Gmail account during activation, I tried QC again...still no go. The employee there again had no idea about the feature, but suggested maybe I ought to try a different Gmail account. I said I would later (I had another appointment). So later, I skipped adding my Gmail account (after doing a factory reset) and BAM...Quick Commands worked! But what about my Gmail account....I added it after activation, and BAM-quick commands doesn't work again. THUS THE PROBLEM LIES WITH MY GMAIL ACCOUNT.
I want to note that I use two step authentication (through Google). Is this the problem? Do any of you use two step authentication with Gmail? I'd still love for QC to work, but do I want to sacrifice security for my main digital account to use it? (I'm going to try to post on Samsung's site about the problem).
So its the Damn Gmail account huh!! That's a shocker!! I definitely ain't gonna delete my Gmail account just for quick command. Everything else with the S-pen works. Well I guess I'll hol off on returning my Note.. Lol. I froze the Samsung keyboard in Titanium backup so I could use Swiftkey 3 so I was beginning to think that was the culprit. Man I've been pulling my hair out over this!! Thanks for the feedback bro!! Looks like I'm keeping my baby..

Samsung chat was pretty useless. They want me to isolate the issue by trying another gmail account. I may try it later (without authentication). Any ideas on how to easily switch gmail accounts if this indeed fixes it?
I also started my own thread on this. Lol. Look a couple posts dow

Did you try to unfreeze the keyboard? You do not need to freeze it to use SwiftKey just select SwiftKey as your default. I had a similar issue but it was fixed with a reboot

Well it's gotten murkier folks...I did yet another factory reset. This time, I tried a different gmail account that has 2 step authentication as well. Guess what? Quick commands worked. So I tried adding my regular gmail (the one giving me fits)-and lo and behold, quick commands stopped working. What would cause this specific gmail account to make quick commands stop working? I've chatted with Samsung (online) and they have no idea. They want me to call voice support. I may tomorrow morning. THIS IS DRIVING ME CRAZY! Also Sammy tried to say that email is not required for quick commands to work (duh). But I've eliminated options and it certainly is a specific email account causing problems.
Figured it out folks. Got it all working. Something is wonky with some gmail contacts. Here's the fix (this is another forum I posted in):

So I have Draw something 2 paid version and I use my email address and password to login to use it. The issue is, the app consistently forgets my credentials the next time I launch it! It happens 8 out of 10 times that I have to enter my email and password when I open the app.
Has anyone seen this issue? Is the app just crappy now? It happened to me on my Galaxy S4 and happening on Galaxy S5 as well. Thanks guys for reading.

Used the app once got bored very easily. I'd suggest contacting the developer of the app. It might be something they can walk you through or there might already be a fix
