I have to emails one is my school g mail the other my personal gmail. I used to have the school one forward messages to the other but that turned into a hassle. I was just wondering if there's anyway to easily switch from one email to the other. Like if there was a widget or something.
Thanks!

I guess you can use the gmail client for one account and configure the email client to get mails from other gmail account. I use both gmail(thru gmail client) and yahoo mail using the email client. Also I see options in email client to configure more than one account, but haven't tried it. I do not want a combined inbox for more than one account as it will be kinda messy. But you can explore that option too.
Settings - accounts and sync -- add account -- Google account

I know how to do this that isn't the problem. My problem is when I get an email I don't automatically which email I'm getting it too. I have to choose the account. I just wish there was a way to separate it right off the bat. Instead of having to go through settings-accounts-email 1/email 2.
Maybe its just wish full thinking.

Yeah, sorry but there's no way to do that. I think there was on 2.2 when I had a Nexus One but I can't remember. Or you could try Gmail Pop Up on the market.

I'll see what I can find then let you guys know.

I people disappoint me...
Google app for main account.
Exchange ActiveSync for the second google account.
Google "Google Sync"
Vibrant can manage multiple exchange accounts, so it will work even if you have another exchange account set up.
HTH!

Search the market for gmail unread count. Its a widget you can add to your desktop that looks like an icon for gmail and will show the number of emails you have unread for any and ever gmail account set up on your phone. Its very stable and quite customizeable. I have a diff color icon for each of my 3 accounts and it makes keeping track of unread mails and accessing the specific account I want very very easy.

Im not sure if this is what you want. But I also have two gmail accounts, and one quick way for me to go into the right Inbox, is I created a shortcut for each Inbox, using the Gmail Label shortcut, when you create the shortcut, it will ask you which account you would like to use. Then you can rename the shortcut for each inbox to whatever you want, then from the Home screen just click on whatever Inbox. I hope that helps.

Anyone have problems setting up a second Google Account? I've been trying for a few days and keep getting a "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server" error. I've tried both on WiFi and 3G, in different locations( home, at work, out and about), and still can get my second account linked. I did some digging the settings and found the multiple sign in options, turned all that on, and am able to sign in to both account on the web, but still not on my phone.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Same issue. I was able to do this at one point but after JI6 bricking my phone and getting it back with ODIN I have never been able to add multiple accounts. Hopefully someone here has an answer.
Does anyone know how to set up a school account on gmail (my university uses the gmail interface but has its own log in portal). I cant seem to log in through gmail.com (on the phone and desktop browser)
Okay when I had my Dream which was rooted and flashed to FAT182, I was able to sync my facebook contacts to my contact list...
With the 2.2.1 mytouch 3g by HTC there isn't even an option in the facebook app to upload contact list... I tried to find a different version or type of facebook app, I can't figure it out, thank you much appreciated.
I don't think its available.

How come it works on the G1 then? lol im confused
Once you have the Facebook app installed, you go to account management under the general phone settings and you can add your Facebook account there. Then you will get the option to sync contacts.
Its very much works.
i purchased a mytouch 3g 3.5mm but when i click the facebook to add as a new account i goes back to the add account screen is there any reason why this is happening to me? thanks in advance
Hi everybody howcome when I go in calendar and try to add a event it says you have no calendar? Can somebody help me. I download a calendar app from market gave me same message.

Did you create one from Google Calendar? Log onto your gmail account and create a calendar then sync it to your phone.
Lol sounds confusing. What about contacts I saved 2 but its not on my contacts howcome?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
It happened to me when I first got my Nexus S. Even though I linked gmail and the calendar wouldn't allow me to add an event until a few days after using the phone while synced to Google account.
Sync Google account and do a soft reboot and if it doesn't work right away, let it run for a couple days. Give that a try. Good luck.

You can manually sync from the sync menu.

I bought my wife the new Nexus S 4g today. The guy at the sprint store helper her set up the phone even thought I did not want him too. Oh well it is his job. Thing is she had never setup Google Calendar because she had a BlackBerry before that. So when I got home I setup her Google calendar but it is not syncing to her new phone. When I go to Setting > Accounts & Sync > her google account there is not a Calendar option. What do I need to do I don't want to have to reset her phone. Are there any other options? Thanks.
Odd. Calendar should be one of the defaults syncs. Have you tried running the calendar app and see if the gmail account shows up there?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I had tried running the calendar app but nothing shows up I even enter an event online thinking may bring it down but nothing. If you try to add an event on the phone it just says "You have no calendars". It is almost like the phone did not sync all the way to her account. I really don't want to reset her phone to factory default and have her set everything up again. She would not want to do that. She has already change the wallpaper all the screens downloaded apps, and changed ring tones.
I meant open the calendar app, press the menu button, press More then on Calendars and make sure the gmail account is listed there.
Also, this might be a stupid question but you're connected with Wifi or mobile network (3G, 2G, etc) right? Your phone signal bars should appear green if you're connected to Google's servers. If it's not green, you won't be able to sync.
I go to Calendar app > More > Calendars and there is nothing there, just have an Ok and cancel button. I have been on 3g, 4g, and wifi and nothing on any of them. Yes the the bars a green at the top.
I doubt you need to reset to factory so not to worry about that. Maybe you just have to wait a day or two. Either that or bring it back to the store and have them figure it out.
Might do that thanks. Hopefully it will work itself out.
You can also try rebooting the phone if you haven't already.
already tried that

maybe you should try and get the stock calendar.apk and re-install it...???
Ok I talked to Sprint and they said that is easiest way was to make sure that the phone was backed up to Google and just do a Factory Wipe. Basically wipe the phone and start over. So I did and that fixed the problem. So anyone who gets a new google phone and does not have all the google apps setup do that before you get the phone activated. I hope someone finds a better way because that is a major oversight on googles part. But everything is working great now.

Bump for same problem here.
Did you find any solution yet?
No, sadly i didnt. As long as i dont sign into the google account, android let me choose to add and store a contact either "local" or "Sign in online"
But as soon as i log into my google account to use the market, the contacts app gives me the message "Your new contact will be synchronized with [email protected]" and only let me choose "Add new account" or "OK" to confirm this.
But i don't want to confirm to store my contacts online.
So the best solution would be, to get this option "local" back.
I rly refuse to click on "OK" hehe. I rly save my new contacts in text files now, i have no other choice atm.
That's courageous. I rolled back to Gingerbread, personnaly.
Yah, i will too. There isnt much difference compared to GB. And i wont take this kind of googles forced data collecting.

Swichted back. Installing DroidWall seem to prevent Android going to sync contacts. Those bastards had all of my contacts synched. Even with sync disabled. As******* check out googles dashboard.
So install DroidWall and only allow programms you trust internet access. There is no need to grant android internet access, especially not the contacts and calendar app... what the hell.. thinking about going back to nokia with symbian as long as its supported. Very nice phones there
Peace
