I just got a new Nook Simple Touch and rooted using touchnooter. The root seemed to go well and it fired up with android. However, when I attempt to login to google in the startup process it will not allow me. When I type in the right password it loads and returns back to the google login screen, when I type the wrong password it says "wrong password". This is the same google account that I have linked to B&N and don't know what to do now. I had kind of a crazy password so I thought maybe it was freaking out with a bunch of characters so I changed my google password to something more simple and it is still doing the same thing. Any help is appreciated. I searched this forum and others and haven't found anyone experiencing the same issue.
Thanks

also, the menus seem to be working properly but I cannot log into google. Can/should I skip this? could there be a lag possibly like the android market I saw when reading about rooting?

Help me out here. All of a sudden a popup cam up saying "Sign-in error for *my e-mail*" I tried entering the correct password but it thinks for a bit than tells me the same thing. Ive tried on wifi and over 3g but same thing. Im getting email just fine on my computer and all is working.
Can someone help me out, worse case is ill reflash and see if that work (or just reload my backup) but I was wondering why this may happen. Its really annyoing cause it deleted all of my contacts and now I cant do anything with my phone without knowing someones number.
TIA
Have you recently enabled 2-step verification on your Google account? If so you need to generate a specific password for your SGS2.

I have not, but now that you mention it, thats not a bad idea to enable.
Either way I think I solved it. I went into the market and reentered my info and it seemed to work fine. Not sure why it did not work in the pop-up error but never the less it should be working.
Thanks for the tip
I just rooted my Nexus S and I am trying to add my Google account back on the phone since everything was wiped during root, but every time I try to log in i get a message telling me that my username and password do not match please try again.
But I am using the same exact username and password that I use on my computer so i know it isn't wrong.
Has anyone encountered this issue before?
If you have turned on two factor authentication for your google account, you would get this problem.
Yeah I realized that a little later last night, issue was fixed when I flashed the ICS Rom and the ICS Google account set up was smart enough to reroute me to the web login.
I have tried rooting my NST using TouchNooter 1.11.20 following instructions here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1343143
But, I do not see YouTube app or anyhing like that. There is Gmail, but no YouTube, where I should sign in.
What am I missing?
Nevermind, I found the YouTube app, but I still cannot get Market working -I am getting "A server error has occured" message. YT and Gmail work.
Any ideas what might be wrong?

If you check in on the TouchNooter 1.11.20 thread over in the development forum, you'll see that this seems to be a common problem. It appears based on those postings that the Market app will start working after a certain time (overnight?), assuming everything else is correct.
I've discovered that you can get into the Market without waiting by adding a SECOND account. (In Gmail, click into the settings from ButtonSavior, then click accounts, and there'll be a button to add one.)
I discovered this by accident trying to set things up for my wife. I thought there was a problem because she did not have a Youtube account set up through her Google Apps account. So I went ahead & added my account to the NST to make sure the rooting process had worked, and lo and behold there was the Market. Now I needed to figure out how to delete my account (which I still haven't figured out how to do!), but in the process of researching that, I ran across this business with a delay for the market to start working.
I then wiped out my NST and went back to the backup I made before I started all this (version 1.1) so I could try again with a different account.. and a third time too, just to make sure with a different order of accounts. It was consistent: the first account gives the "server error" message when opening Market; the second goes right in.
Now I just need to figure out how to get rid of one of the accounts that's set up. Anybody know that one? If the "Accounts & Sync" setting I'm used to in stock Android is there, it's well-hidden. (For that matter I'd like to get rid of Gmail... or at least not have it auto-sync.)
Slartiwhatever,
thanks for your comment, registering second account and syncing it fixed my problem too! I do not really mind having two accounts set up, so this works well enough for me.
Hello,
For context: My friend bought an essential phone a while back that her and her sister used for a while until supposedly an update released requiring them to sign into their google account. None of their credentials seemed to work and so they gave up on the phone all together and got new devices. My ancient LG G4 needs to be replaced and she offered me the phone if I could figure out how to get around the lock-out. At first I thought it'd be as simple as performing a factory reset or rooting the phone, etc.
Well, it turns out that they had already tried that. The lock-out persists even after a full factory reset was performed. I double-checked all of their credentials with them to make sure none of them worked. Nothing. Since I am locked out and the phone has been reset, installing rooting programs is much more difficult and I really don't know what options I have left. My only hunch at the moment is that there might be some way to use the shell on the fast loader to interface with the phone, but I doubt I'd have many permissions. I've scoured lots of forums and videos looking for new approaches, but many of them assume I have access to the phone and can install apps, etc. Does anyone have advice? Let me know if you need more info. Thank you!
Are you getting a message like "This Device was reset. To continue, sign in with a Google Account that was previously synced on this device"
If so, that is Factory Reset Protection (FRP). If the password on the Google account used on that phone was changed, it makes it even harder to solve.
I don't know if FRP can be bypassed on a PH-1. You could try searching for it.

Yes, that is exactly the message I received. At least now I know what that security measure is called. That might help me on my search. Thanks!

I was able to bypass FRP on a used Essential Phone I got from eBay, which was running PPR1.180610.091 (August 2018 Pie release, the first one ever). Most instructions seem to involve using TalkBack or GBoard input settings to navigate to the online Help & Support activity, then searching for a help page that has a YouTube video to launch Chrome from there and download a replacement Google Account Manager and another app to force browser sign-in for Google accounts.
Hopefully, those hints will be enough to help figure out which instructions you find online are legitimate.

Good to know that can work on Essential Pie, I thought it was a fake video the 1St time I saw someone doing that on some other phone!

I appreciate your advice, but I've seen that one before and it no longer works with my release. The video never loads in, can't actually be clicked on to open. I'd need a more modern approach unfortunately.
Hi guys, so I wanted to sell this tablet and I thought it would be easier to just Hard Reset it and then go by the usual initial configuration. The thing is, my account it's not working.
The tablet has my little girl's account and it was family linked to mine, but none of the two accounts does it.
I've tried some tutorials to bypass this but they just doesn't work, *#0#* doesn't show anything, I can't install APK's even with SmartSwitch, Configurations just random says "Stopped Working" and so on.
Did someone ever encounter something like this? I done the FRP thing once when my mom forgot her account password but it was pretty easy.
Cheers!

Sorry, but FRP is no longer "easy to bypass". If the google account is one of a family account, you might be able to use the password manager in Chrome to find the account login and password.
Yeah, I tried with both of the accounts but none works pretty weird situation
