General :: Forgot Google Account Details - How To Recover
Apr 11, 2013
My friend's phone got stuck in a bootloop the other day and the only way to recover it was to do a hard reset. The trouble being he has no idea what his Google account details are. He knows neither his email address or his password. He's never sent an email from his Gmail and never set up an emergency email account for recovery purposes. I've scoured the Internet for a solution but if all you have is your phone number, there doesn't seem to be any way to reinstate your account. His phone isn't rooted as he's not that kind of user.

I'm using the 2.2 Android emulator. How do you enter your google account details? I would like to test a new app called chrome to phone which uses 2.2's new C2DM api. This seems to require being able to add google account details.

I unfortunately didn't write down my PIN and apparently have forgotten it on my Nexus 7. I did not get the "Forgot PIN?" prompt, or did not notice it the at the 5th or 10th attempt point. It just says to wait 30 seconds.
Is there any way in my Google account to reset the PIN or remove it? It seems if Google lets you do it from the device through your Google account, you should be able to do it from your Google account.

When I made my gmail acct when I first got the Droid Eris I put it in once and never thought about it. Sure I usually use the same basic email address that are about the same if not exactly the same but.. I lost my original phone never sent an email and I cant remember what it was now to put it in my new replacement phone so I can get all my contacts back. I never put in an alternate email so I cant send it that way and I tired everything I can think of. I also called verizon to see if they might have it on file and they said no. Anyway that I can get this withouth knowing the username, having a 2nd email, trying password retrieve and putting in all my usual emails?

Just brought a I9000 yesterday and have already forgotten my pattern code and never set up a gmail account, tried all the hard reset keys but doesn't work. Has anyone figured it out how to hard reset it properly or update the firmware without kies? As kies doesn't detect my phone.

I have two gmail accounts, each with their own Google Voice account. Account 1 is my primary account, and I have even ported my phone number to this account. I'm using this account on my phone (nexus 5), and have 0 issues with this account. All texts, voicemails, etc come through with no issues. Account 2 is largely not used. I would like to use account 2 on my nexus 7, for texts, and maybe making calls if I don't want to give out my real number to someone.
My issue is when I'm logged in to account 2 on my nexus 7, I'm getting text notifications for account 1 on my nexus 7. But if I were to open Google Voice on the nexus 7, once GV refreshes, the texts disappear. It doesn't happen the other way around. If I get a text/vm to account 2, it does not notify my phone, which is logged in to account 1.
I've checked the settings in both GV accounts, and neither account is linked to the other, or to send copies of texts/vm notifications to the other. How do I stop notifications from GV account 1 to stop displaying on account 2? I have cleared cache, data, uninstalled the app. The only thing i have not done, is a reset of the nexus 7.
I was initially logged in to account 1 on my nexus 7, but I would have thought removing the app from the device would have essentially erased all traces of the account 1 on the nexus 7. I even signed out of hangouts, to make sure Google was not treating this like my phone, and sending it both places.

My Droid was working fine until last evening when I did a battery pull, shortly after I upgraded several apps that required updates. After my Droid rebooted and loaded back up, I first noticed several error messages about app function unexpectedly shutting down. Then if I tapped on some of my more commonly used apps, they wouldn't load up (similar error messages). For example: I use Twidroyd Pro (twitter app) a lot and when I tap it, I get: "The appliction Twidroyd PRO (process com.twidroidpro) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."Similar errors I guess under the class "com." appear when I click on other apps. Not all the apps mind you. For example, my Facebook or Evernote app, when I click on them, they prompt me to enter my username & password. Others work fine. I can browse the net on it, I can "Talk", etc. What should I do next?

Is it normal for the Gmail last account activity to show an IP form a state that is a few hundred miles from me? Should I be worried or is it completely normal for my IP to bounce from different towers like that? It has always originated from my home state, yesterday was the only time I ever noticed I was using an IP from another state.

Two questions about google voice app.
1) When Google voice is installed on phone and one uses google voice to place a call, are the cell phone plan minutes being used?
2) Is cell phone signal strength relevant to placing a call using Google voice? I am under the impression that google voice does not rely on signal strength but instead on the internet connection.
My house does not have good cell phone signal.. can i use google voice on my phone with wifi turned on? and am I actually burning my cell phone minutes while using google voice?

Droid X - Configured with a Google Apps Premiere, working great. Attempting to add a personal GMail account. Go to the GMail app, select add account, fill in the metrics and then...... "Needs to communicate" message for ~ 3 minutes, then bombs out with - "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server". 3G is fine, on a wifi connection that is fine, web browser works fine..... Google Apps account works fine.

I lost a contact somehow and so created a new one with name only but no phone, email details. Then I linked the contact to that persons facebook profile, so now the contact diplays their details from facebook. Then I sync with gmail contacts and looking at their contact in gmail it shows some link metadata rather than the actuial phone numbers etc. This is the data:
<HTCData><Facebook>id:729501399/friendof:637902454</Facebook></HTCData>
Is there any way to have the phone copy the contact data it reads from facebook and store this in the phone in the person's contact record? This way it will track through to gmail contacts.

I currently have a DROID Bionic and I gave my son a HTC Rezound for his birthday today. I wanted the phone to have a few apps and a few tweaks so I signed in with my Google account and went to the Play Store. After he opened it and added his Google account I was unable to remove mine.

Got a company Droid... Interesting to see how different ICS is on AT&T versus my Verizon phone. Anyhow, I am reluctant to set up my personal Google account info on the company phone. Only real issue with this is that I can't get to the Playstore.
How do others handle this?

I've just purchased a new Galaxy Nexus (yay!) and my husband wants to take over my old Desire (Froyo, no other ROM installed). The Desire is rooted, but I had trouble with that process so I don't really want to reset the phone to its factory state. However, I can't delete my Google account to make my husband's the primary. This means that he has to remember to change accounts for each email he writes, among other inconveniences, and the phone is showing a triangle error icon in the notification bar because I canceled its access to my 2-step validation process, so it isn't happy about not being able to synchronize my account. Is there any way (other than resetting completely) to remove my account from the Desire?

Is it possible to use an Android phone without having a Google account? I mean, would it be possible to have contacts and calendar stored locally, etc? I want to just because I want to.

I was looking through my google account and noticed it has listed every android device we have ever had, including a duplicate Transformer entry (We returned one b.c of light bleed)
Is there any way to remove the devices from the list that we no longer own or are active?

Any way to use a non-google e-mail address to setup a google account? I could've sworn this was possible before. I'm basically getting my kids Nexus 7's but rather than sign them all up for gmail when they already have e-mail accounts, I was hoping I could just use their existing e-mails for simplicity.
