[Help] Can't add google account in nexus one - Nexus One General

Just received a nexus one. I didn't add google account when nexus one was started for the first time. It can connect internet correctly and access google reader and gmail.
But I can't add google account in nexus one later so can't download software from market. I tried a couple of times, it still failed.
The error message is "this could be a temporary problem o your phone may not be provisioned with data services".
Has anyone seen the similar issues? Any one can help on this? Thanks in advance!

Menu > Settings > Accounts & Sync > add Account.

Thanks! This is exactly what I did. But Adding google account failed.
The error message is "this could be a temporary problem o your phone may not be provisioned with data services".
------------------------------------------------------------
After factory reset, it can work now(adding google account right after reset).
Is this a defect or bug in Anroid 2.1 or Nexus one. The user should be able to add google account later.

I did not add a Google account at first because I did not have myAPN set up. I was able to add it later though. So I do not think it is a problem with the phone or android 2.1. Atleast not all of them.

Yes, a few guys in google help forum reported the same issue. Not sure it's Nexus one's issue or 2.1's.

Try a factory reset, shouldn't be too much of a hassle since you haven't set it up too much, right?

Log in via the mobile network first, not WiFi... that's a typical error message if you try and create an account via WiFi before doing so via the mobile network.
If you've already tried this... sorry, I can't offer anything more.

Account problems

Hi!
I just recently moved all my contacts and calendar to my gmail account, and it worked fine for a couple of days. It then started with that I was unable to create Google contacts (only SIM and Phone was available). I checked the data synchronization, which said that there was some error with the contacts synchronization. Then I followed some advice on the Internet about clearing the data on the "Google Apps" application, to be able to try to sign in to Google once again. But now I'm stuck. I cannot sign in, which means I cannot use market, and my calendar and contacts are unavailable. When I try to sign in with my Google account I get this message (after a minute or so):
"Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server. This could be a temporary problem or your SIM card may not be provisioned for data services. If this continues, call Customer Care".
I've tried with both WLAN and over the mobile data net (Which both works in the browser, and in maps etc.).
Anyone has an idea which does not involve a hard reset?
Thanks!
i hope someone else does, but AFAIK, there is no solution that does not involve a hard reset.....
Hmm.. Strange. I did not skip the initial registration when i bought the phone, and the account have never struggled before, so I wanted to re-sign in, and this seemed to be the only way.
it's a bit of a bug unfortunately.
On the hero, the sign in only seems to work in the initial set up.
if you skip it or if you do the clear storage later on like you have, it seems to lose it's ability to link to the google servers correctly and you get that message. I don;t know of a way round it, but i hope that someone else does...
Yeah, I really hope so. It seems a little stupid to have to wipe the phone completely every time Google decides that they don't want to synchronize with my gmail account anymore...
Is there anyone else who has an idea?

Adding 2nd Google Mail account

I've been trying to add a second google mail account to my phone today. I've gone into 'Google Mail' app, add account, which I already have, and complete the details. I have good wifi signal and can stream videos from youtube very smoothly. I have Vodafone H coverage.... however it comes up saying temporay problem, you have no network connection. I've rebooted the handset, same problem.
Give I have Wifi and H mobile coverage I wonder if you can actually add a second account ? It says you can but has anyone managed to do it yet ? I can login from a PC to my second account ok.
PS I'm using the stock firmware from Vodafone.
once into the Gmail app .
press the menu key and that wil open the "Menu"
on the right side of that menu , there will be "accounts".
Click on that and put in the correct name and password for your 2nd gmail account .
Cheers

Yup thats what I've been doing and it says network not available even though it is....

Odd .
Im not sure m8 what to do , wait for someone else .

I've tested from work this morning, we have a Vodafone transponder in the building as they are the corporate network. We get very good and fast coverage, it still says its temp fault, unstable connection vague message. I've got a good very fast connection, somethings wrong with the app imo.
My first account is gmail and second is googlemail, I can't see that causing a problem. I can log into both via the internet browser fine :-\
It's been confirmed by other users on the Vofafone UK eForum the 2nd email option in Gmail isn't working. It seems the last firmware update broke the feature :|
I have the same problem.
Primary account is google apps.
Have also a gmail
When I try to log in to my third (apps) I get the timeout....
Have no idea what to do..
Confirmed here. Either on WiFi or 3g I'm getting network error while trying to setup second gmail account. First one is Google apps.

Anyone?
Have no clue to fix this..
You need to reset your phone to factory defaults and then reconfigure all Google accounts.
It has solved problem on my legend.

There is a workaround that has worked for some people, not including me with this same problem.. Download youtube from market by google, login to it with your second email account.. Hope that works for you, google needs to fix this right now, RESETTING your phone should NOT be an option, not even in the 1980's would this be acceptable.. Google should not be allowed in cell phones if their software did not make the advance in technology that many of us call "reconfiguration"
No problems here using 2 Google Accounts (no stock ROM though, I'm using CM 7 - Gingerbread right now but was the same with CM 6.1 before)
I did the setup through other way...instead of setting it in Gmail, go to phone Settings - Accounts & Sync and setup there the two accounts. My primary one is a Google Apps account configured to sync contacts, mail, notes and calendar and the second one is my personal account (the one set also for Google Checkout) where I've set to sync only mail. When going to Gmail apps I have both accounts there and I can send/receive from both

Updates - Can't Sync with Samsung Account

I have searched through the sections but couldn't find exactly what I was looking for so hopefully someone can help me out.
When I check for updates under Settings>About tablet and try to sign in with my samsung account (created on samsung's website) it says invalid ID or password. I know it is correct however since I have verified it three times. On the off chance it was linked to samfirmware.com I setup an account there too, but same thing. Am I missing something?
Thanks in advance.
you are NOT alone.

Right after I noticed on these forums that one need to be signed into a Samsung account in order to get an ota update, I tried to sign in with my existing Samsung account - could not, wrong password.
I tried to create another Samsung account online, and I get errors ' a problem occurred'.
I even tried to use a non existing gmail account, same problem.
Then I spend about two hours on the phone (its not a cell phone, you will probably end up at laptops - but Samsung support is so ****edup, that one knows whats going on. One guy told me to create a brand new gmail account and use that userid to login. Another said I should create a new samsung.com account and use that....no luck.
When I was promised to be called back 24-48hours after open the issue and no call after 72 hours, I called them. Their response was that someone will call me when they have a solution.
Probably think I am stupid and cannot type.
**** SAMSUNG support.
Maybe I would suggest we all open issues with them, regarding this **** support. That is all we can do - maybe a lawsuit because they are selling something that is not working as advertized....
Numbers count! Please open an issue with Samsung.
Your not missing a thing, I received my wifi Gtab 10.1 couple days ago did the same thing and nothing, first it said processing failed then it said wrong password, did the same, logged in on line to the samsung website that was fine. I Called Samy tech support up and they said they are working on linking the accounts together "I take that to mean its a system wide problem" the rep said i can sign up with a diff email. Well i did that too a got the same results. Im guessing they are having some issues with that update sign in/sign up server.
Ill call again tomorrow and see why i cant sign up at all.
samsung support known for a horrible service but i love their products. as long as you are sticking here at the forum you are good. mine too and i dont want to spend more time logging-in. just go to development section and you are good to go!
It's a known issue, but try again. It took a few times for it to go through, but I am now synced. Of course, there aren't any updates available, so it isn't a pressing issue right now

did you eventually use your login info from the Samsung.com site?
Maybe I am missing something really obvious ... but my Samsung Account shows as not sync'ed but I cant find where I can try reentering my username & password for it. When I go into the "Samsung Account" heading in "Accounts & Sync" there are no menu options at all. Am I looking in the wrong place?
EDIT:
Hmmm ... rebooted and now there is a message saying that "Samsung account" has to force close. Lovely.
i didn't use the same login as the website, I used the same login as my Gmail for the Tab, but I think you can use whatever email/password you want.
To access the login screen, go to Settings/About Tablet/System Updates
For whatever reason, trying to get the acct set up on the tab doesn't seem to work for anybody the first time. So, remember the first email and password you used, and do this:
clear data and cache, and force close these 2 apps:
Samsung account
Samsung apps
launch Samsung apps, and agree to the terms
try to sign in to your samsung account with the first email and pass that you used
It worked for me.

Clear data and cache? Do you mean from CWR or somewhere else?
Sorry, from manage apps, clear the data and cache from those 2 apps.
ETA: this only lets you create the account so you can manually check for updates, it does not solve the sync issue.

Select the "All" tab, scroll through to find the app, select it, clear data and cache
You can also manage apps by opening the app drawer, and dragging the icon to the little "i" in the top right corner.

OK, that sort of helped. Went through all of that but when I sign in it says bad password(verified through last pass login I am entering it correctly), and when I try to create account from that page it says account already exists. Frustrating!

When my attempt failed for loggin in from 'settings', 'about', 'software update', these two app's (samsung apps & Samsung account) data and cache are still empty - there is nothing to clear.
I cannot see that it will work either with the CWM data/cache clear, as I did the new UI ROM install, cleared my data and cache in CWM before I did the ROM install and afterwards I still got the same errors trying to login to the Samsung account.
I think you were just one of the lucky one's to sign into samsung account.
Did you use your same account-name & password as your samsung.com info?
Have you EVER logged into the samsung.com account (maybe registered your device online), before trying to connect from the tab10.1 to samsung account?
I think these are all important questions that we need valid answers for, before we can determine the say to proceed with this account login.
Thanks

Sorry - saw your post. But as I said these two app's data and cache were empty for me, so that does not do it either.
I haven't registered my device on the website.
If you get the "username/password already exists" error, I believe you are registered, there is just a bug with the server. Wait a few hours, another day maybe, and try it again
If you're still having problems, please look at this thread, hopefully there's some useful info that can help you clear it up

Solution found......
See this :
It works for me - confirmed.
Solved
If you're getting the "processing failed" message when logging in to do the updates, then here's your solution:
Instead of typing in your login information for the "Update" action, go back to "Accounts & sync" menu, then "Add Account", select "Samsung account", and fill in your samsung login information there.
If you have any trouble with your login (such as it rejecting your correct password), go to samsungdive.com and create or update your login information there. Simply changing your password to something different appears to somtimes help.
Once your login information is entered into the "Accounts & sync" area, you should be able to access the update feature without providing any further credentials.
samsung accounts too quirky
i have an account i have been using then updated to ICS.
galaxy s2. then tells me I cant log in with my .com domain in Turkey.
blah blah blah.
using the phone and samsung instructions it says log in under another address.
okay but there is no way of changing the log in on the phone which steadfastly keeps the old gmail address as my log in.
solution I uninstalled samsung apps and samsung account and sent an email to samsung explaining why.
told them when they get their s*** together then i might reinstall.
otherwise no advertising dollars for you samsung and google.
best to give consumers what they want.. a fully functioning OS and proggie.
I can do without samsung app but they cant do without us.
might take a year. suddenly kies for ubuntu.
email addresses that work in all countries.
WTF

[Q] "Gmail 5.0" with Exchange Issue

Nexus 4 Update, I got Lollipop with my device OTA.
I set up my Exchange account with Gmail application.
During the setup phase "Server Connection Can not Open" I get a warning.
However, the same user can set up my exchange account information to another android device.
Lollipop Before the current could use my Exchange account seamlessly.
Although I am not able to return to their factory settings repeatedly solve the problem.
Am I the only living such a problem?
You can tell where I went wrong?

Thank you.

Can't add google account to Ticwatch pro LTE

Looking for help adding a google account to wear os on Oneplus 6, using Pixen OS 11.
When trying to add the account phone screen goes white and hangs after entering the password. I thought that it might be a problem with the rom, but after reverting back to stock OOS 10.3.7 (android 10) the issue persists. Tried clearing play services data, different version of play services, removing and re-adding the account to the phone, wiping both the watch and the phone multiple times, with no solution. Anyone knows a fix?
Unfortunately, same for me with Fossil gen 5.
My watch was already sync with my account, Yesterday I did a reset of my phone and watch... But it was a mistake because I can't sync again...
I tried also to delete devices in my Google account, delete 2factor Auth,... But always Error 400 or blank page while copying my account.
:-(
Ticwatch pro 3 lte and samsung s21 fe 5g also have this bug. :-(
I have the same problem! Fossil gen 5.
Is there any hope for a solution?
In my case I just sent an email to Google because I saw that it was an url https://accounts.google.com/BootstrapFallback?bootstrapState.......... which give blank page or Bad Request 400

Today I tried again and it finally worked without any more modifications....
Yesterday I delete devices in my Google account, delete 2factor Auth and reactivated later.
(I still didn't get reply to my message to Google)
Google assistance just asked me to access to my account logs if they find something I will let you know.
But you can try again a copy, maybe it will work again like me.
Not sure if this is still an issue for you guys but I had the exact same issue with Fossil Gen 5 and Pixel 5. I got around it by installing wearOS v2.39 phone app from apk mirror. Worked first time and was then able to update to the current version after adding the my account
