follow the steps to remove the Account for Your Gmail:
1> Go to Settings> Application> Manage Applications.
You will find the All the app installed in your device, select the below listed apps & choose the Option for ( clear data ). It will remove all the settings & you can add new account.
Gmail storage, Google Apps, Google Mail, Google Talk & Google Talk Service
But I think you also have a new market account than so your download area is empty...

Hi all.
I've recently bought my very first smartphone which is running Android 2.1. I'm absolutely loving it so far but I have a couple of questions regarding security.
Soon after setting up Android I configured the Google Mail app to sync with my Google Mail account, which is my primary email address.
I've noticed that whenever I open the Google Mail app it displays thousands of my emails, some of which contain very personal and sensitive information. My concern is that if somebody was to steal my phone and get passed the pretty basic key lock, they will have access to all of my emails over the past few years!
I've been told that it's not possible to password protect it or log out of the account; is that true?
I've tried to remove my Google Mail account from the app but it gives me the message:
This account is required by some applications. You can only remove it by resetting the phone to factory defaults (which deletes all your personal data). You do that in the Settings application, under Privacy.

Surely I don't have to do a factory reset just to remove my Google Mail account?
Any help would be appreciated.

I've done that already but as soon as I reopen the Google Mail app all of my messages reappear.
I've now archived all of my emails in Gmail and removed them from my inbox so they have now stopped showing in the Google Mail app but any new messages will appear.
I just don't understand why it's not possible to remove my account from the application.

I only want to remove it from the Google Mail application on Android so that if my phone was stolen or got into the wrong hands they don't have access to thousands of personal and sensitive emails.

I've tried that.
But there is a message prompting that the account can only be remove by resetting the phone factory.
help anyone? thanks..
Try google account dashboard. Info stored on your google account. I recall seeing android devices in there once.
You can clear data from apps management in the market app. That restores it to default but doesn't necessarily log you out.
Try the desktop market... you can log in and out there.... but there's no real hard logout unless you reset.
open market, open menu and logout
what a JOKE!! huh
f you are using your network data with a android phone you cant log out, you dont have nothing like LOGOUT unless you make a factory reset , and never try to log into market again, attention because by doing factory reset you loose all your apps, make a back up before doing that, there is a free app call backup everything
Im guessing this hasnt change in plays maket?
To solve your Problem you have to be tricky!
Go to gmail .com,
and submit a new email...no matter if you will use it in future or not...
After you have submit a new email account on google,
go to your phone to accounts.
Add the new email google acc!
THen you have two!
Next time you start your market, it will ask you which account it should prefer..
Regards.

Thanks i had done that trick, the only thing is that i was trying out this cheap tablet and put in my acount so i didnt had to make one but when i went to accounts and sync the tablet does not have that option.. all i got was a screen saying "the market account password change" sign in again.. :/ o well had to reset it
Installed CM7 on a mytouch 4G.
Used my google account to access the Market.
Installed a bunch of apps on it and configured them too.
Now I want to give this phone to a family member.
Can I replace my google account on this phone, without loosing all the apps and the respective configuration settings?
It's been a while since I have used CM. but I don't recall a way to replace the main Google account however you should be able to 'detach' the application from the market. Downloading Titanium Backup Root will allow you to detach the application from the android market where your account is linked to. (I suggest using the same application to do an apps backup first) Then switch the main account and attempt to reattach them. If you lose your settings or lose the apps, you have the backup to revert to.
Hope this help, and if there is an easier way out there use that, but this way is pretty straight forward (and you get a back up )
Cheers,
Java
Cant you just go to settings, select the google account and press remove?

What?
No app will be deleted if you remove the active google account from settings.
You will most likely not be able to use google apps like gmail until you add a new account (that from your family member), but nothing gets deleted.
Non google apps will most likely work too, except you can't update from market until a google acount is added again and some paid apps employing the google licensing serve might refuse to work as there is no account attached, or the one attached, did not buy the app.
Just try it.

No, it will not let me do that. When I hit the "Remove account" button it says ...
"Do you really want to remove this account? Removing it will also delete all of its messages, contacts, and other data from the phone. Proceed?"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So I hit the next "Remove Account" button and it says ...
"This account is required by some applications. You can only remove it by resetting the phone to factory defaults (which deletes all your personal data). You do that in the Settings application, under Privacy."
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The only thing relevant under the Settings -> Privacy is the "Factory data reset". Which is what I want to avoid.
There are only a bunch of free apps installed on this phone. I want to keep those apps as-is and just swap the google accounts.
If you backup with titanium, assuming you are rooted, wipe data, flash ROM, then when setting up the phone just enter the new gmail and restore apps with titanium and bam. Kind of a pain, but it will get you where you need.

You can use multiply accounts with all apps usable. Open Market go to Settings/Accounts. Make sure you have the account you would like to use set up in Sync Settings

So if I have 2 google accounts setup under Settings -> Accounts then can I remove the first google account?
(Assuming that the second google account would then become the main google account for this phone.)

After doing a titanium backup, do you need to do the the Settings -> Privacy -> Factory data reset to reset the phone?
To answer the origninal question
In short-yes, you can change the primary google account by looking through the settings.
Without removing the first google account, I added the second google account.
But still it will not allow me to remove the first google account unless I do factory reset. Because I installed apps with the first google account.
However, it did allow me to remove the second google account right away. Because I have not done anything else after adding it.
Does anyone know how to make Google Sync work? I've installed Google calendar sync and Google Contact but when I go to accounts and choose Google, there is no entry for either.
Follow the steps here exactly as mentioned without skipping anything :
1) Factory reset your phone
2) After reset,
Download contact for android 6 apk
Then download contact sync APK for android 6
DO NOT LAUNCH OR EXECUTE any of them for now ...
Go to phone manager, go to permission manager and in CONTACT, let CONTACT app and CONTACT SYNC ALWAYS allow to change the contacts. It is by default on notify ...
Then, launch contacts app, introduce your login and password from google and it will sync all your contacts. AFTER that, you can download play store, google agenda etc ... You can find all apk i have mentioned on apkmirror
Then all will work perfectly with your chinese mate 8
Dear maly,
Is contacts apk really nessecary? The native contacts won't work? As there will be 2 contact apps in the end.
Is there a calendar sync app nessecary to synconize Google calendar with the one built into EMIU?

Don't know exactly what I did. I went to Settings > Permissions Manager > Applications and turned on "Trust this application" for Google Calendar Sync and Google Contacts Sync. I am using a different calendar other than Google's. Didn't have to reset the phone.

Hi there,
Thank you for your guide.
I did try exactly as you said, but it doesn't work none the less. After factory reset, and adding Contacts and Contacts Sync, there isn't any Google account (just an Exchange account option) that can be paired to it, as there is no Google Account that can be added, sadly.
Will now try to install Google Play and hope that it will create an account that can be paired to the Contacts app.
***EDIT***
Fixed! Installing Google Play did the trick.

Install Google calendar too. Then sync possible.
From reading on here we cannot get Google's Contacts app to work - but other apps work - only I can't find a way to get them to sync the Google Contacts.
I've found mtcdialer.apk - which will redirect attempts to dial thru Bluetooth and I'd like to be able to have my actual contacts available.
Has anyone solved this?
I paired it with my Bluetooth phone, opened the Bluetooth app on the HU. When I pressed the button too search contacts (on the HU) the phone asked for permission to share contacts to HU.
All works
What you're talking about is sync'ing the phone's contacts via bluetooth to the Bluetooth calling app. Very different.
I solved the problem myself.
Thanks to MTCDialer.apk, ( https://github.com/f1xpl/MtcDialer/releases ) you can use a Google Dialer/Contacts app on the Head Unit. I wanted to do this in order to put my favorite contacts in an icon on the launcher so I could call with one tap. The problem was getting my contacts from my phone to the Contacts app on the HU.
What I did was use Contacts Backup and Restore, ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smarttools.mycontactsbackup ) to export my phone's contacts as a .VCF file and emailed it to myself from my phone.
On the HU, I downloaded the .VCF to /download/ and used True Contacts, ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cz.psencik.com.android.contacts ) and imported the .VCF into it. Then I was able to select my favorite contacts and used the app to put their icon on the home screen/launcher.
Based on other recommendations it is possible that Contacts+ might be better but I haven't tried it yet.

Is Google Contacts not working an issue with ALL android head units or just a few? I've had the same issue on two different Erisin head units?
Great thread. Only add you must use Google contact sync versión 4.x
If you use any more recent versión It Will not add "contacts" option to Google account
Hi, i have the AE0373B 8.0 PX5 headunit and i am unable to run mtcdialer. The app displays an error "Mtcdialer has stopped". Anyone else had this experience or could help? I would love to get this working.
I'll try to get all the apks I installed, but I even managed to get voice enabled on one of my modems.
I Have found that some Huawei E3131 Works great in 3G 25/5Mbit I have installed Google contacts+dial NON Nexus, and few others, Messages Works to receive SMS, And on PC even it works with voice I am Missing some Service apk to make that work also and One Dialer can try to call voice which end no service available.
EDIT: Added List of apps that work mostly, I yet need to figure out what Phone Services and Carrier Services to install but SMS receiving and sending works.
Only Stupid Viber do not work on HU and that is making me crazy. Hope this helps someone.
It is the steps to sync contacts via Google account.
Step 1. On your old Android phone, add a Google account.
Please go to "Settings" > "Accounts" > "Add Account" > select "Google" > go with the prompts to sign in your Gmail account. If you don't have an account yet, you need to create one at first.
Step 2. Sync Android contacts to Gmail account.
Please go to "Settings" > "Accounts" > "Google" > turn on "Sync Contacts" and other files you wanted on your old Android phone.
Step 3. Sync the contacts to the new Android phone.
You need to add a Google account on your new Android phone. Then go to "Settings" > "Accounts" > "Google" > select "Contacts" from the list of the Google backups > click "Sync Now" to transfer contacts from your old Android to the new one now.

Of course it will work, all he's doing is creating a google account on one device and using the same account on another device so both device have the same data once they are sync'ed with the account. Then google assistant can use the contacts from this account. It would probably work better if you only have 1 google account on the device.

I have my google account on my head-unit and the same one as my phone. Its just that there is no contact on the head-unit even when its synced. It just won't allow contacts on the head-unit because it has its own bluetooth app so wants you to use that app for calls instead.
Do you have Google Contacts installed on your HU? Once you have that on you need to add Contact Sync as it00x32 linked. Then you have to convince the HU to use a different dialer, follow the steps Martinsamp listed here.
