Where is the GMail account info (account, username, password etc) stored in the Vibrant? I thought I had it all backed up with TiB Pro but I restore data from GMail, Accounts, Account Sync etc but I still have to go back and put them in manually after flashing new ROMs.
I did notice the first account entered is the one that ties to your Market data.

So I'm trying to delete/readd my gmail account because push won't work consistently. I don't want to wipe the phone. I have, in the past, cleared gmail, google apps and gmail storage but google apps has no data to clear. Clearing gmail & gmail storage doesn't do it. It just clears my e-mails and then resyncs... How do I completely remove?
Go to settings, accounts & sync and enter a new google account. Then tap and hold on the other gmail account to remove it.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Can't be done because the original is the primary... Google won't let you remove it.
Why not create another Gmail account and temporarily sync to it and then switch back?
as noted... you cant delete the original and i need to

I had uploaded from my previous phone all my contacts to my Gmail account under a group phone. So my Galaxy S downloaded all of them.
Now here comes the questions:
1) When I create a new contact what should I do to have it synced with my Gmail account? I suppose I have to create it under my Gmail account and not to the phone? Right? What about the contacts under th phone, they are not synced with my Gmail? What if I have several accounts?
2) I have added my facebook account and I have linked contacts together. Is this backed-up somewhere? I found the simple answer is no.
So what I want is to update my contacts with correct data, link them together and have them backed up to my gmail account?
If you tell me about kies, it back up only what is in the phone...
Hi everyone, my first message here. Been lurking for a while though.
I have a question about how the Motoblur account management works. I have never used any Android devices except for my new Atrix, and so I don't know which parts of the system I am encountering are stock Google apps, and which ones are Motorola's. So, when I click on the Accounts app (or select Accounts from the Settings menu), I have two sections: MOTOBLUR Accounts, and Other Accounts. When I just bought the phone, I didn't know enough about MOTOBLUR (and didn't realize that it pushed the login information through its servers), and so I added my social network (i.e. Facebook, LinkedIn) accounts to MOTOBLUR. I think I may have added a GMail account as well (same as my Google account, which also supports my Google Calendar, Google Contacts, etc.). In the Other Accounts, I added Google only.
After a while, I realized that MOTOBLUR is a horrendous idea that should have never existed, and deleted all of the accounts that were listed under my MOTOBLUR accounts section (except for the MOTOBLUR account itself, which is locked). The Google account, which is under Other Accounts, stayed.
So my questions are:
- Does MOTOBLUR still have continued access to all the syncs that my Google account does to the text messaging application, calendar widgets (not MOTOBLUR calendar), etc.? I.e., is the Google account under "Other accounts" exposed to MOTOBLUR's servers?
- What is the role of MOTOBLUR on the phone if it's not doing anything with the social network applications, and the e-mail is configured through the Google account, and not through MOTOBLUR's GMail account?
Thank you.
I am trying to restore my contacts with this application but I have the following problem.
First, I add a new live email account, and then other gmail account. My original contacts are tied to my gmail account, so I think that first I have to configure this account.
Then, I restore my contacts and reboot my phone and I can see my contacts, but when I entrer in 3 or 4 contacts and I try to enter in other contact, I can't, I can see the list of all my contacts, but I can't access to the information.
If I go to the email accounts, The google account does not exist.
I can create the gmail account again, and restore the contacts, and then I can access again to the information of the contacts, but the problem persists, after enter in 3 or 4 contacts, I can't access to the information anymore, and the google account is deleted.
Which is the correct process to restore the contacts? is there any manual of the application?
Thanks.

Not sure if this is a lollipop issue, or if I just did not notice it in kit-kat, but, I went to create a contact on my phone the other day, and I always save them to my google account. When I saved the contact, It did not show up on the google web site as I expected it to. So I started to trouble shoot, and found the contact was saved to my phone. OK I did a factory reset on my phone shortly after the OTA upgrade, at which point i forgot to set my google account as the default to save contacts. Upon going to the contacts settings, under accounts, there is no google option. If i hit add I get Facebook, Exchange, or LDAP, no google option. If I got to the phone settings, goto accounts, google, and click my google account, there is no option to Synd Contacts, just sync people data??? Also if I go to my contacts app, create a new contact and change were it saves to, I only have Phone and Exchange Active Sync as options. What happen to saving to Google, am i missing something?? Anythoughts ??
