Nexus 4 Not Letting Me Sign Into Accounts - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As the title says. I was at the store earlier today and got a notification telling me An error has occurred when signing in to my Google account. My signal bars are also grey. First I thought a good 'ol reboot would fix it just like 99% of my problems but still nothing. So I booted into TWRP, and wiped dalvik+cache. Still nothing. I did a full on factory reset and still nothing. Called Google and they gave me some troubleshooting that didn't work. They said if I didn't get it fixed they would replace it so before I dive into another RMA, I thought you guys could help me. Im running cm 10.1.2 latest nightly with Faux123 017b2 kernel if that helps.

Are you able to sign with your Google account anywhere else? Like on a PC?
Have you activated 2-step verification recently?

Change your Google account password then put the new password on your phone I had to do that about a year ago. It worked for me maybe it will work for you

Same problem here on my Nexus 7, but not my HTC Sensation 4g running ICS. Sounds like a Google problem. Found this: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/09/19/psa-its-not-just-you-google-now-servers-are-currently-down-only-affects-jelly-bean-devices/

The I flirted around with some custom roms and couldn't get wallet set up. I keep getting "unexpected error trying to add card, try again later" So i went back to stock rooted and i get the same error now? Anyone else get this or know how to fix it? Thanks!
Delete the data. Restart and put your info in. I had this error, kept fiddling with it and it worked.

I called google wallet. They said they couldn't see anything wrong on their end. So I just kept resetting and trying. Then it worked lol

I'd hate to bring back an old post, (it isn't that old XD), but I got this problem after removing and old debit card and adding the new one. I have done everything, I cannot get it to work. It is happening on my Nexus 4 and my Nexus 7.:crying:

Google Sync .. help !!

i tried factory reset but nothing new

What I did was remove my account, then add it back. Someone else suggested unchecking all the sync then recheck but I don't know about that one, you could try it too.

Could you perhaps explain how you solved it? Just in case another user has the same problem and is looking for a solution.

Google wallet payment.

This is the second time I've gone to CVS to make an NFC payment and it fails each time. I get an error try again message. Any advice? I have a stock rooted Nexus with a T-Mobile sim.

I've run into this same issue where it won't work at CVS or toys r us, sketchy at meijer, but works great at Walgreens and 7/11. I've contacted Google and all their wallet department would say to me is that everything looks good on their end, but they are aware of software bugs in the version on our phone and a new version is coming.
BTW, I'm on at&t and I'm fully stock.

It could be that the pad at the store is broken. If it works at one store but not the other, there is not reason to think that its your phone that works. Sometimes the people behind the counter need to press the credit button before you make the transaction as well.
I'll try giving it another shot next time I'm at walgreens or maybe McDonald's

sold phone without wipiing

hey guys so as the title says, i sold my phone without wiping and left my google logged in. is there a way i can remotely wipe it?
There might be. If you enabled it before you sold it.
Go to google.com and then go to the google play store.
Click the little gear on the upper right side. and then click android management.
When there, there is an option to remotely wipe the phone.
However, you must have enabled it on the phone before you sold it.
This is the only way, unless you physically have the phone or nicely ask the guy. Otherwise, just change your google password.
And hope you did not store pictures and other confidential software on it. Good luck.

Android Device Manager
Change your Google password first of all

If you had a corporate exchange account, then go to the corprorate email client on a laptop adn there under options you will find a way to wipe the entire device. This is if you had a corporate exchange account put in.

If you can ring it, then you can locate it via gps.
It says location not available
