Delete current gmail account - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hi, im asking me if its possible to delete or at least deactivate the current used gmail account on android so that it goes local?
Using ICS v1.0 by Tytung.

There are two ways:
1. Wipe your phone
2. Push framework-res from your original rom zip via adb with right permission
For both ways making backup is highly recommended!

I just need to switch between local and gmail acc (if i need it).
So, there is no other way then using one of your two options.
If i push the orig framework to my current installation and replace them.. what will be the changes? Excepting as you said the removed google account..

Fix for Getting Google Contacts/Calendars Syncing (TNTLite)

Note: As of TNTLite 2.1.1 (a supplemental install to TNTLite 2.0), you no longer need to follow the instructions in this thread to get your Google Calendar and Contacts to sync with your tablet, because the Calendar and Contacts applications and the necessary sync files have now been included with the TNTLite supplemental. In order to get the sync working, though, you will need to wipe your user data in clockworkmod, so that you go through the Google account set-up process again. WIPING YOUR USER DATA IN CLOCKWORKMOD DELETES ALL INSTALLED APPS AND SETTINGS. Use Titanium Backup to backup your apps before doing this. (Data copied to the internal sdcard is not deleted in a data wipe.)
Go to this thread for the TNTLite download, and for more information:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842004
******************************************
Old instructions, for pre-TNTLite 2.1.1:
This has been driving me insane for the past week--the gTablet with TNTLite was 90% of what I wanted, but the lack of a real sync with my Google contacts and calendar data has been gnawing at me. (The workaround of installing a Google account as a "Corporate" account in Contacts didn't work for me, because I have multiple Google calendars and that approach would only ever sync one.)
But I seem to have found out how to make it work! Alas, it requires a user data wipe, but to me at least it was worth it. Here's what I did.
* This was starting with TNTLite 2.02 along with the Tegra Fix *
First off, I backed up everything with Titanium Backup and also cwm. (You'll definitely want Clockwork Mod installed: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842004)
Get the GApps v2 file, and copy it as an update.zip to your /sdcard: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842590
Shut down, and boot into Clockwork Mod.
Wipe cache. Don't reboot.
Clear user data/factory reset. Don't reboot.
Install the Gapps v2 update.zip that you copied to /sdcard.
Reboot.
Skip the Google sign-in.
Set up your Wi-Fi.
Reboot.
Launch Gmail.
Add your Google Account (Accounts / Add Account). Break into a big smile when you see Contacts and Calendar show up as a sync option in addition to Gmail. Let them sync. It may take a while.
If you have a Google Apps account too, while still in Gmail, go back to Accounts and then Add Account, and add your Google Apps account. Break into an even bigger smile when you see Contacts and Calendar show up as a sync option. Let them sync. Go into the Contacts app, and verify that your contacts are all there. (You can use the Display options to show/hide them.)
[Strangely enough, at this point, I found out that the Calendar app was nowhere to be found on my tablet. Probably due to my screwing around before I started trying this out. I extracted calendar.apk from the TNTLite 2.00 update.zip, copied it to my /sdcard, and launched it. It installed, and there were allllll of my calendars. This probably won't be an issue for you.]
If you go into the Contacts app, you'll see under Add New Account that "Google" now appears, as does "Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync" (instead of just "Corporate").
At this point, I took a deep breath and did the Market Fix (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=845175), worried that it might somehow mess with the settings. Rebooted.
And my many calendars and all my contacts are still there, and the correct Account/Sync options are still in place as well.
Now I have to start reinstalling everything (thank you, Titanium Backup), but I've got the last piece of my gTablet puzzle.
Hope this helps other folks like me who've had this problem. It seems that the most important thing is to have the Gapps files already in place when you do the initial user setup under TNTLite. Since Gapps has an older version of Google Maps (and Street View), you'll want to update both of those in the Market. And then you'll need to do the Flash install, etc. etc.
(Dec. 1 update)
Note: If you install a supplemental update to TNTLite after doing this fix (i.e., installing 2.0.4), you're going to get the TNT Calendar back, overwriting the Google Calendar. Your data will still be there, and syncing will still work, but you'll have the less-professional-looking TNT Calendar interface. You can install Touch Pro Beta from the Market for a nicer replacement calendar.
Nice work, and well done!
How is the calendar from the GApps v2 file? Is it stock Google?

Thanks! There actually isn't a calendar in the GApps v2 file, now that I look. It's just the SyncAdapter.apk. (Ditto for the Contacts.) So actually the problem with my not having the calendar.apk may just have been from when I was screwing around trying to get things to work before I started all of this. A clean TNTLite 2.0 install followed immediately by the instructions above will probably have a calendar.apk file with no problem.
Seems we only need a few of the apks in the update to get this running. Maybe get with Roebeet to add those to tnt lite or as a supliment.

Yes, it might work to have just the two Google*SyncAdapter.apk files included in the main TNTLite install (not a supplement). They need to be there during the initial setup.

You can get them out of the Gapps update.zip file, in the app subfolder (link to the file is in the original post). They would go in /system/app, but if you're not rooted, you're not going to be able to put them there. And I'm not altogether sure it would work this way, and you're still going to have to wipe your user data and cache to try. So you should just go ahead and install cwm--the link is in the OP. (You should have cwm installed anyway, even if you're not going to do this.)

Thanks. Just to be sure: which cache are you referring to?
When you speak of cache I'm thinking about settings>running application and then clear the cache of individual apps, but perhaps you're referring to something else. And if we're talking about the same thing: the app of which app?
I can confirm that this works great.
Good work!!

I don't use Exchange, so I don't have much advice, sorry to say. After the steps above, did you go into Contacts, Accounts, Add Accounts, and choose Microsoft Exchange Sync? Are you on TNTLite 2.0.2 or above, which returns to the TNT contacts and calendar apps that some people say work better with Exchange?
Also, a reminder that installing TNTLite 2.0.2 and above may cause your Google Calendar app (from 2.0 and GApps) to not work quite right, since 2.0.2+ reverts to the TNT calendar that the tablet came with. I just installed 2.0.4, and my calendar opens and the data is there, but I can't see any menus or change any views. I have calendar.apk from TNTLite saved in /sdcard, and I just launched/reinstalled, and I'm back to the regular Android/Google calendar. (Am trying to download Touch Calendar, but the market is sooooo slow on downloads tonight.)
Thank you!! Now this is a complete ROM.

After the steps above, I added an Exchange email account which automatically setup the same account in Contacts. I've verified that the Microsoft Exchange Sync is checked/enabled.
Application "Settings" is Force Closing often now. Will revert back to TNTLite 2.0.2 and play with this again later.
Thanks for the effort and I'll keep searching for an Exchange solution.

Pull it out of the TNTLite 2.0 update.zip, in the /app subfolder. Just put it somewhere on your SD card, and launch it.
I do have Settings FCs, but only when I'm closing Settings, after I'm done using it, so I haven't minded.
Argh! Didn't see this until just now -- 2.0.5???? Oh my.
Also, Touch Calendar (beta) in the market is a pretty sweet calendar display app. Not sure if you need the Google calendar apk installed as well, but give it a look. Does a great job displaying lots of entries from lots of calendars, with pinch-zoom for changing views.

I do think it would be a good addition, if you're not worn out. The real Google calendar/contact sync is a big plus, though I know you've said you don't use it.

[MOD] Sense 3.0 Mail.apk with exchange pin security disabled

Alright kids, after much trial and error, here is a working Sense 3.0 Mail.apk with exchange pin security disabled for those who hate entering a pin every time they want to unlock their phone.
Other Sense 3.0 ROMs have successfully cracked their Mail.apks to get around this, but none of them ever worked properly with the Thunderbolt... but our wait is finally over
I made sure to mod the apk to disable ONLY the pin security while leaving all other security measures intact
INSTRUCTIONS (it's also never a bad idea to make a nandroid backup first):
For the Mail.apk
1) Download the attached Mail.apk
2) Mount the system as R/W (either using Root Explorer or 'adb remount')
3) Copy the new Mail.apk to system/app via root explorer and overwrite the older file when it asks, or push the file to system/app via adb
4) Set permissions as rw-r--r--
5) Reboot
6) After reboot, open up the Mail app and set up your exchange account all the way through naming the account, then hit 'Finish Setup'
7) You will be prompted to enable security policy... this is normal so hit 'OK'
8) You will get to another screen asking you to activate security policies... again, this is normal so select 'Activate'. From here on out you will never be prompted to enter a pin
9) Profit!
For the PatchedMail.zip
1) Download the .zip and toss it on your SD card
2) Reboot into CWM
3) WIPE DALVIK-CACHE!!! (Won't work properly if you don't do this)
4) Install the .zip then reboot
5) Follow steps 6-9 above
If you have issues, try clearing dalvik-cache when installing
NOTE: This only works with Sense 3.0, it will not work if trying to flash over the Sense 2.0/1 Mail.apk. And yes, this IS working on Gingerbread ROMs
Enjoy!
Love it! Too bad I am running the ofmgb ROM

Does this app have both security check-box options that come in the stock Email.apk app?
"Use secure connection (SSL)"
"Accept all SSL certificates"
I need both checked (and available) to access my work exchange server, and the Sense MAIL.apk doesn't include the latter check box, for some kooky reason.
Thanks!
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. I've been waiting for this for a while. I was using Touchdown but that sucks, lol. Thanks again.

This is still the Sense Mail.apk, I just edited the smails in the apk to return the pin security whenever the app requests it. You won't gain any new functionality with this mod so the 'use secure ssl' option is still the only one that shows up
Do you know if this apk can be used on an Evo 4G with Gingerbread? The Sense 3.0 mail that comes with the Evo 3D is the only one that can do push Hotmail in HTML (other than TouchDown). Thanks.
Thank you so much!
Will this also fix the problem I have with not having Exchange emails pushed as frequently as they are on Froyo?

I don't see how. This just circumvents the pin or password policy pushed by exchange admins.
I just wanna throw this out there for some people.
PLEASE KNOW/UNDERSTAND your security policies at work, using this mod could/may be grounds for termination or civil penalties by your Employer.
Is anyone having problems with the setting for HTML emails as default sticking? It will stay for a bit but then later in the day it will be on plain text.

Sorry for the dumb question. What is the difference between the Mail.apk and PatchedMail.apk?
Im guessing that Mail.apk replaces the native app while PatchedMail.apk patches the native app. Is that right?

I finally tried mail.apk with my Tbolt running NonS3ns3. First, the list of mail providers was blank when the app first started. I was able to select the 1st slot which was the one for AES. Then I got a forced closed when I tried to configure my Exchange server.
I thought NonS3ns3 was a Sense ROM and that the modified mail.apk would work.
Any suggestions?
Switched to BAMF Forever 1.0.6 ROM and was able to use this modded mail.apk package.

You have to delete your Mail database. Try Titanium Backup and use it to delete the data for the app.

need help getting a gmail account off my hd2

Just got phone from a friend and can't get his gmail account off the phone can any one help?
I already tried the factory reset
Are you sure u did a factory reset?
The normal way to do this would be to go into settings/accounts&sync => you will get a list of accounts being synced with the phone
then click on the google account u want to remove
this will open up another screen with options related to that account...At the bottom right, there will be a button to remove the account....and you are done!
this works on android 2.3.5, and should be similar on earlier builds too
A bit of assumption going on here :}
What rom is on the phone?
A factory reset and reformat of the sd card should normaly do the trick on win mo, and as said above its easy with droid roms

Just add another gmail account.. once you do that you will have the option to delete your friends account. Having multiple accounts usually gives you the opportunity to delete the one you don't want.

OK here is the solution for this, this works I just tried it on my phone. OK you will need a file explorer with root access (root explorer is excellent) open root explorer find the DATA folder then SYSTEM folder, I believe the 3rd file is ACCOUNTS delete it then reboot. That's it. So it look like this /data/system

How To Disable - Exchange Security policy ?

I want to bypass exchange security policy on my phone when I configure my office mail.
Is there any MOD or any ROM which has this feature built in?
If none, then can anyone help me mod the relevant apk's to achieve the same?
I was on Omega ROM on my S3 earlier which had this feature.
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
I was thinking the same, since I had to activate device admin, which options just like the ones in Cerberus or any antitheft app
Although not the same as the built in support, I prefer to use "TouchDown for Smartphones" as the security options are more limited to this app, rather than the phone OS. In my case, my company can only "remote wipe" the data in the app, leaving the rest of my phone data alone. It also has many features not available with the native client and better support for Exchange 2010.
This works, see link at bottom, I'm using it fine on 4.2.1 so ignore comments....I've been running it on aokp since start, see my SIG for versions
It patches your email and exchange2 apks means you can use swipe unlock and widgets on lock screen, for example I use face unlock
You must still accept companies security policy it's just not enforced.
I did it once and saved the patched apks to /sdcard and now after every new ROM flash i simply copy the saved patched apk into /system/app and then wipe dalvik. Best to remove and re-add the exchange account after each ROM update prior to overwriting files.

1. Backup existing Email & Exchange apks in system/app.
-You can just rename them to : EmailGoogle.apk.bak & Exchange2Google.apk.bak
-Remember to also rename their corresponding odex files
2.Copy both new apks to system/app
3. Set permissions to rw-r-r (screenshot attached)
4. Reboot and set up your exchange account.

Worked for me. Might want to mention if you are on stock you will need to rename the odex files as well.
Please also be aware that this could be in direct violation of your companies corporate email/ActiveSync policies.
it's very important that you are aware of this, and that you understand any potential consequences of violating those policies.
I just wanted to point that out as an Exchange Admin.
Do these suffer from the same Exchange sync bug as the stock 4.4 Email/Exchange apps? Or is only the PIN requirement modified.

This app gives me no calendar though *sigh* The only feature I wanted to use, as I don't care about corporate mails on my private phone but like to get a reminder on appointments. I heard the dev is working on it. Let's see if it's showing up any time soon.
Sync and auto discovery is completely broken in 4.4
Good to know it works on manual

This will not work if you are using ART as these are deodexed

Not using ART, which has its own set of issues.

This is the stock refreshed email application with the exchange pin bypassed. It will still allow for remote wipe, but no pin will be required.
Backup your current email and exchange apks including their odexed files and push these to system/app, set permissions, and reboot. Detailed process below.
Exchange2Google.apk - 1.12 MB
EmailGoogle.apk - 4.81 MB
You need to be rooted and a root access file explorer like Root Explorer to complete this process.
Code:
1. Backup existing Email & Exchange apks in system/app.
-You can just rename them to : EmailGoogle.apk.bak & Exchange2Google.apk.bak
-Remember to also rename their corresponding odex files
2.Copy both new apks to system/app
3. Set permissions to rw-r-r (screenshot attached)
4. Reboot and set up your exchange account.

Is there an odex version? Just curious if it will cause issues with ART if people start enabling it and run this.

I don't have one . Maybe someone else could make it.
Hi, any difference between this mod and the mod here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1749921 ?
Thanks
nevermind.. odexing failed
Used the other one in post 17 and that worked didn't have to mod the odex files to back them up. Not sure why it worked with that mod over this one maybe I did something wrong the first time.
