need help please - myTouch 3G, Magic General

hi i just installed cyanogenmod rom on my phone and i login my gmail account...cuz my internet wasnt working at the time.. is there a way i can go back and login my gmail account or do i have to reinstall everything.... thanks

what? i couldnt understand any of that. did you log in or not? if you didnt, just open up gmail and it will prompt you to log in...

with cyanogenmod rom when ever i click on gmail... it just closes right away... i go into setting and try to go to data sync and it wont let me... doesn't do anything...

go to settings>data synchronization

ive tried that it doesn't let me do anything... it doesn't open anything... but in dev tools app there is a google login service...

i knwo there is a way to do it it said so on the page that you skipped that you can do it later but i dont know exactly what it is that you need to do. If all else fails you can always just wipe
oh wait go to your apps drawer and open up Gmail and see what happens

Try this :
Go to settings/applications/manage applications, find "Google apps", delete its data and then reload the Market app (or any Google app that uses your account). It should ask you for your login details again.
Hope this helps

http://androidforums.com/sony-ericsson-xperia-x10/149501-market-doing-my-nut.html
EDIT 15TH AUGUST Android Forum having maintenance done and the linked thread has lost its useful info but basically do what 17mayis says below!
Uv most likely uninstalled something that you shouldnt have? or you may just need some sort of market fix!
Sent from my rooted 026 X10i using swype via XDA!!
the only think i unistalled is moximail thats it.
edit.
fixed my problem
thats what i did
this one requires you to go to the Application Settings (Menu — Settings — Applications — Manage Applications) and clear the data in Google Talk, Google Mail, Market, Google Apps, Download Manager and IM.
then i creat a new googlemail acount and done every thing works fine.
yeah i done this and it worked, tho didnt need to create new account, found this on android forums
i have xperia x10
First back up ur phone numbers
now go on ur pc and log on to ur google mail account
once logged on goto settings
now goto accounts and import
where it says send mail as, switch to @gmail.com (you need to switch ur address to gmail or googlemail )
once you have changed your mail address log out
on your phone goto settings, applications,manage applications and you need to clear cache on the following
google talk, google mail, google apps, market, download manager
turn phone off and on again and goto google talk and log on ur new google address(@gmail.com) once you have done this try downloading a app from market( if you have apps downloading pending cancel and restart.
this is what i did and it worked for me, no factory reset needed
hope it works good luck

Android Market auto - installing apps from older build

Hello guys
I've been trying few builds of android and install apps from the market.
When switching to a new build, I link my phone with a googlemail account so all the contacts are restored.
Unfortunately also ALL the apps are sync, downloded and installed aswell from the market, without asking me anything. I do not want this to happen.
This happen everytime, no matter whichever build I was using.
Searched first in google, then in xda but didn't find anything. Does it happen only to me? xD
has anyone got a solution?
thx
I don't know how to get rid of this problem, but it's normal, so you're not the only one. The apps you have downloaded in the market are safed in your google account, because some people have purchased apps and don't want to buy them again..
ok
fair enough then.. cheers
Hmm.. Maybe there is a solution. I never tried, but it may work.
After setting up your phone (the first thing you have to do when you boot a new build) go at first to settings > Accounts & synchronization. Sorry dunno how it's spelled in Englisch, using my phone in German There go to your Google Account and remove the ticks at contacts, mail and calendar. Then go to your market and accept the license agreement.
It could be that the market now doesn't install your apps because you don't sync your google account anymore. But if you're using this account for mail and so on this is no option, will see if I find another possibility.
Edit: Found another solution that worked for other users. In a German forum they told you have to skip the setup at the beginning, go directly to settings > SD-Card & Telephone Memory (something like that) and do a factory reset. Then boot again and the market won't install anything. If this doesn't work try to set up your phone at the beginning and do a factory reset then.
That's all I've found. Now I'm out. Tell me if it worked
Cheers

I realised that it only installs the programs that you had installed in the last build.
Therefore all the apps I removed won't sync..
I probably had a bug in my last build that blocked google to complete sync.. damn xD
However my internet is not that fast as I live in the middle of farms & field, so I'm gonna download all the .apk from internet; then I will put them in the folder Android Apps and the new build just install them on the first boot.
But thanks for your research, I may use it later on.. you never know.
Cheers

turn off Google backup, in settings as well as when FIRST setting up Android after hitting the Android on the first screen. One of the few first things is Google Backup, for apps and bookmarks. Disable this.

[Q] How to Change google Account? - TyphooN CyanogenMod 7 Nightly v3.2.8[2.3.4]

i have this build since 1 month now, and i love it!
but now i want to change the google-accounts (the new account is from my domain using google apps)
i googled around a little but, but didn't found a solution
is there any way to get into a "first boot"-state, so i can set my new google-account?
another question is: is there any way to merge apps between 2 google-accounts. afaik the apps from the market are bound to the account.
hopefully my english skills were good enough to describe my problem.
greetings
havox
is there anything missing in my description to solve my problem?
or is it impossible with CM7?
How about:
Settings -> Accounts & Sync -> Add Account ?

Hi,
Have you tried :Settings>accounts and sync>google>remove account?
Or apps>setup?
ok - thanks for the answers
but it's not working :/
i tried the "remove account" in account and sync, but there is a message that i have to set back the phone to factory setting. (under point "privacy")
but this doesn't work. i can push the button "delete everything" - but nothing happens ...
@malybru: what do you mean with "apps>setup". i suppose i found it, but what i have to do there? there are listed all apps, right?

Hi,
It may just be on my ROM,but I've got an app called "setup".
I suppose it's the one that runs when you first run a ROM ,and you can install your google details and wi-fi etc.
I realize this thread is nearly 1 year old, but I'd like to add something here that I know works.
I had to merge my two gmail accounts and by chance, I found that this approach worked.
Go to settings and apps for Google Play, clear the cache, force stop and uninstall updates. Go back into Google Play. You'll have to click on Accept on their T&C, then click on Menu to see accounts... select the account the app is in that you want to move to the other account. Uninstall it. Menu, Select 2nd account you want to move app to, then install.
If you don't want to lose the cached data, well, guess you're out of luck. The above was the only way I was able to move over my apps from one gmail to another gmail account.

[Q] Disabling gmail account

Hello,
When i first opened the phone, i used a gmail account to update phone. But now, i want to delete this email because i added a new gmail account and i cant make this email as main account. When i try this, it says " The phone needs that email, if you want to disable this email, reset phone and every data will be deleted."
Is there any way to disable this first email without losing any data?
To my knowledge, it's not possible. The setup requires an account to backup all the apps downloaded of the market, contacts, calendar, email etc...You can stop it from syncing with that particular account, but it CANNOT be removed as such.
The only way to get rid of it is to factory reset/wipe the phone and start fresh with the desired account. It's a bit annoying, but I understand why it does that...

Ah, you want to change gmail accounts, from the old to "new" as primary?
Well first thing you need to do is this.
1. Go to Menu -> Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications
2. Click on Gmail in the list and, if needed, "Force Stop" then "Clear data"
3. Click on Google Apps in the list and, if needed, "Force Stop" it, but DO NOT clear data
4. Click on "Clear Data" on Gmail Storage
5. Exit back to the phone's Home and open the Gmail app
6. Re-enter your Google account info.
This should work and hope it does !
cirnocirno i did that but i think it did not change the main account because for example when i try to backup sms on go sms pro, i am supposed to send to this old email from new email.
How can i understand if it is main email or not?
Look, i am trying to download applications from desktop pc from market via this new email but it says there is no mobile connected to this email. How i can change that?

What that I posted up did was wipe the gmail account handler allowing you to change primary email. Myself I did this with my old android phone because I messed up with my old email and had lots of spam and such. So I didn't like that
I have no idea why it doesn't work for you.
Another thing which my friend in rl said you could try is this.
It was simple enough though.
1. Make sure Marketplace is not open.
2. Setting > Application > Manage Application > Clear Data from Google Apps
3. Open Marketplace, it should prompt you to login with your gmail username and password.
Worst case, factory reset. I am sad that google haven't implemented away to change these kind of things, it's as stupid as forcing notification sounds through the speakers and not with the active output(headset/headphones).
Primary email was changed but for android market , it was not changed.
I did what you told in your last post but now i cant open market. I restarted phone but still it was not opened. It says error, try again later. What happened?
Ok now i can open market. When i first opened, it did not ask me to prompt with a email.
If i backup everything, and then reset; then restore again, my phone, my applications my sms, etc will be the same as now?

if you backup all things and restore they should be normally. If the backup application you use do it so. Myself I don't backup as most things are not worth

WOW! PlayStore won't connect, can't login! First time ever!!!! How can I ??

This is insane!
I go to playstore to check updates. It says "Error checking updates". I repeat the process and get frustrated. I clear data on playstore and go to add my account again only it brings up the side menu and when I move that out of the way, it says "try again". I hit that button and the menu slides back out! And I repeat this process and get frustrated.
So I did all the cache clearing, data clearing stuff for play, play services. I have no download manager. And still this problem.
I did not and will not remove and try to add my google account again because then I might lose access to my contacts. In fact, I haven't even checked if they still sync. If they don't, I suppose I could do that.
Other than that, what can I do?
This is the craziest thing I've ever seen.

Lol hello again sir
Go to www.gooogle.com/contacts
From any web browser, are your contacts in place?
Guessing you haven't but reboot your phone, cycle your WiFi and see if anything prompts you to sign in or sync.
Then go to settings/ accounts / Google and make sure it's allowed and syncing, check both sync and Google
Re-open Google play and see if it's working.
Oh and perhaps change WiFi to another or test on mobile data if you don't have a second signal to use.
=) Thanx for your help. I can get contacts in a browser. I rebooted a couple times, did wifi and mobile, and nothing. It syncs everything in the account as well. I just can't use play store. I cleared data and cache on playstore and services. And I can access play from a browser; so I didn't get banned or something. It's specific to this phone, it occurred sometime after the update to the latest firmware. I'm not sure if it's related.

Only thing I can think of would be to wipe all play services, store then reinstall.
This has happened before?
First time.... What is the best way to restore this stuff on the stock ROM w/o factory reset?

So you can usually clear data on all Google services.
But if that doesn't work then boot to recovery and just wipe system, not the whole phone.
This will mean you have to set up your phone again but your storage will remain unaffected. So images, files, music won't be touched
