Change Password
First change your Google account password from somewhere else
if you know your imei no call your carrier and inform them
You can try an app like Android Lost or Plan B. They can be installed after you lose your phone & will help you to try to recover it.

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.

Hi experts!
I used to have two Google accounts, one private and one for work. Unfortunately, I have been fired a month ago and I have no more access to the latter. I believe it is still active but they changed the password and I just can't login.
The problem is that all the apps registered in my Google Play under this account are not available for uninstall or update. Each time I try, I get the message "Authentication is required. You need to sign into your Google Account."
The apps work well on the Android phone but I can't manage them. Moreover, I can't reinstall apps that I uninstalled using the disabled account. All the apps that have been installed with my private account are managed just fine.
I am using a Samsung S2 (GT-I9100) with Android 2.3.3. Google Play Store v 3.7.15.
Any clue how I can get the control back on those apps?
Thanks in advance!

This might be a dumb suggestion but if you know the username but not password then why not try the "forgot password" system most sites have.
Never needed to with play but they must on the website version have a way to recover or reset password.
Although if work paid for those apps they could in theory seek compensation if you try re accessing them.

Thanks for your suggestion. It's not dumb but since my former work Gmail account is managed by the administrator, it would be too easy if I could just reset the password myself. Anyway, my intention is not to hack the account but rather get back access to my apps.
BTW, these are not work related apps, just that when I installed them from the phone somehow, Android chose that account by default (I don't even know how). I am now stuck with no possibility to manage them.
I wonder if by deleting this account on the phone, the apps will stay installed or will be uninstalled as well.

...
my suggestions does not belong to hacking and software and so on but in your situation i would think about which apps u installed/owned by the corporation id on google play
cus if there are any apps wich needed any additional privat information or even have to deal wich such privacy things u might go to the administrator and say him well after the laws in this state ure not allowed to keep this information and he might will give u acces again.
its like getting a notebook by from your work and getting some private stuff on it like photos from your children..afterwards u loose ure job and they retake the notebook.
they have to give u the possibility to change or delete this information.
thats what i would do
why can't you download those same apps on your device with your private gmail account? just delete your corporate acct after you register your private acct. i' ve done multiple accts so many times.

I was just wondering if the apps will be uninstalled automatically if I delete the corporate account or if they will be stuck with the then unexisting account (on my device) with no possibility to update or uninstall them.
Any clue?

Do a reset to a place back in time from your PC, only do it to when you could last access facebook on your computer.
Thread closed as it has nothing to do with the phone.
i logged into a device, which is now stolen, but today when i used Play Store, ,the device was visible there...
can it be somehow that i can logout my account from that device??
Only way is by changing your password.... And by doing that, when they try to see your emails or download something from Google play, they will get an error asking to put the new password...which that would be impossible because they don't know the new password...

Greetings. A friend bought 2 months ago a remi note 4. For an unknown reason he factory restored his mobile phone and now it is asking for google account that have previously connected with the phone... He knows nothing about his account. Tried with his name, tried with his mobile number for google account recovery but the person who created his account did not keep the credentials. Is there anything I can do? Because I don't want to send it to xiaomi and pay postage and the service fee. Thank you in advance.

What do you mean by "factory restored"?
Factory reset. Volume up + power. He wiped everything
If he wiped everything, then he will need to set up everything again. That should not involve being asked for the details of any previous account, because there should be no record of a previous account. However, if, on initial set up, he is asked whether he wants to set up the phone as a new phone, or whether he wants to restore a previous backup, then he should choose to set up as new.
I did that and asking for a Google account...

Well, then enter your google account details.
Read my first post... He don't know the account... I have the receipt the box and the phone. My only hope is Xiaomi authorized service?
I read the first post before answering at all. What is preventing him from entering his own account details? If that doesn't work, then he should reset the phone again, and start afresh.
He dont even know his email. He didnt know that he had an email lol. He just bought a phone. A friend created his account and he didn't keep the details. Stupid move I know. But this is the case.

Then create a new Google account for him, and he can login with the details of that account.
The phone needs a previous account that was used with this phone. New account is not working

Sorry, but I have never heard that before. Any phone can be set up to work with any Google account after a factory reset - unless we are not talking about Google accounts here. Maybe you should post screenshots or pictures of the login requests that you are seeing.

Hmmm ... seems to me that the phone was encrypted. You will have to format the data partition to remove the encryption. For this, you might need to install a custom Recovery, like TWRP.
Whether your job will be easy or not depends on what else the person who set up the phone did. If the bootloader is already unlocked and TWRP is already installed, then things will be relatively painless. Just reboot to TWRP, select "Wipe" -> "Format Data", and so on. If the bootloader is not unlocked or TWRP is not already installed, then you are in for an interesting time. You will need to read the threads about installing TWRP. Good luck!
