Or how to change it to the other account?

When I set up my Xoom, I connected it to my Google account, which does NOT have a "gmail.com" domain, or gmail.
I have since found that Voice Search will only search contacts associated with the gmail account.
If I try and add gmail to my Google account, it tells me I will need to change my primary account name on the account to something new, in "gmail.com".
If I do this, how would I point the Xoom to this new Google account name, to still have stay connected with my backups, market purchases, etc?
Thanks!

I have my primary facebook account sync'd from the setup/accounts page. I use this because it syncs the contacts in my messages and phonebook. I use the android FB app as the primary widget for this account. I wanted to add an additional account. so I used Pure widgets. However, purewidgets logged me into the primary FB account automatically. I could not get out of it.
Then I used Friendcaster. It did allow me (I thought) a partition or separation of accounts. Come to find out It recognizes the second account "sometimes". If I get a notification or a message on the second account it will sometimes open up the primary Android app - though it is not logged into that account. Anyone have this problem? It's getting kind of annoying now...
Same here. Hope someone can help figure it out.
When I got the TF I set up my gmail account to back up all the tablet info on as a hotmail account.
Now though, I want to change this email account to another hotmail account but Android (now) only let's you use a gmail account. Is there any way around this nuisance?
And no, please don't suggest I get a gmail account.
All of your apps that you have bought are linked to that account and there is no way of changing that afaik. The only way you could get it semi working is to link the accounts and set up auto forwarding
How can I remove my Gmail accounts form Google Chrome's other devices tab? Without removing gmail account from device. I want that because, anyone can sign in to my account without password and can explore my gmail and other google accounts.

Hi. I think that's not possible because the Gmail account is a device account. Unless you remove it completely from your device it will not disappear in Chrome.
I agree, you cannot do that. Go to Gmail and Help
Delete or restore a Google Account
Deleting your Google Account will affect all products associated with that account. For example, if you use Gmail with your account, you'll no longer be able to access that email. You'll also be unable to reuse your Gmail username. Before deleting your account, review the data and products associated with your account on the Google Dashboard.
Delete a Google Account
Sign in on the Google Accounts homepage. If you forgot your password, you can reset it.
Click Data tools at the top.
In the Data tools box, click Delete account and data. If you don't see this link near the bottom of the page, your account may have been created through an organization or company which requires different steps for deletion.
Confirm your account deletion. To do so, you'll need to select these two options:
"Yes, I want to delete my account."
"Yes, I acknowledge that I am still responsible for any charges incurred due to any pending financial transaction and I understand that under certain circumstances my earnings won't be paid out."
You can safely select the latter option if you haven't used any of Google's paid products, such as AdWords and Wallet, or if you have no pending financial transactions related to these products.
Restore a Google Account
Having a hard time recovering your account? If you use another email provider like Hotmail or Yahoo as the username for your Google Account, make sure you didn't create another Google Account using that same email address. Two accounts with the same username can't exist at the same time, so you'll need to change the username on the new account first.
If you accidentally deleted your Google Account, you have a short amount of time to try and recover it:
Go to our password assistance page.
Select "I don't know my password."
Follow the steps until you see a link to verify your identity.
Click the link to fill out our form.

Canceling your Gmail address
Note: Deleting your address won’t free up your username. Once you delete your Gmail address, you won’t be able to use that same username ([email protected]) in the future.
If you decide that you don't need your Gmail address anymore, here's how you can remove Gmail from your Google Account:
Sign in to your account at accounts.google.com.
At the top, click Data tools.
In the Data Tools box, click Delete products.
Click Remove Gmail permanently.
I can’t sign in
You need to be able to sign in in order to delete your Gmail address. Click here to recover access to your account.
I am using Gmail offline
If you use Gmail offline, you'll also need to delete cookies associated with Gmail offline to remove your account completely. In Google Chrome, follow these steps:
Type chrome://settings/cookies into your address bar and press Enter.
Search for mail.google.com.
Hover over the search results and click the X that appears.
I want to retrieve my deleted account
If you delete your Gmail address but wish to have it back, we work to help you recover your deleted accounts whenever possible. However, within a few weeks' time, accounts are usually no longer retrievable. Note that a successful recovery will only recover the username associated with the account.

So I've been away for a while and things have changed a bit with the accounts tab. It used to be in settings under account you could add all your email addresses and they would auto load to the email app. Well it seems thats not the case now. anyway I added all my accounts to the accounts tab, so it has my work email, my yahoo address, and the google account I used to sign in to the phone. Then I went into the native email app and added my yahoo and work emails. The gmail app auto loaded the gmail I have attached to the google account from logging into the phone, however I don't like the gmail app and wanted to use the native email app only. So I disabled the Gmail app in settings and went back to the native app. When I attempt to add the gmail email that is attached to the phones google account it tells me I have a user name and password issue. I have checked and rechecked and I know I'm typing it right and that the info being use is right. I'm not sure why this email won't add. any ideas???
Have you tried simply adding the account from the Mail app? Remove everything first if some stuff are already listed.

Cite from Google Play : Allowing less secure apps to access your account"
Allowing less secure apps to access your account
Google may block sign-in attempts from some apps or devices that do not use modern security standards. Since these apps and devices are easier to break into, blocking them helps keep your account safe.
Some examples of apps that do not support the latest security standards include:
The Mail app on your iPhone or iPad with iOS 6 or below
The Mail app on your Windows phone preceding the 8.1 release
Some Desktop mail clients like Microsoft Outlook and Mozilla Thunderbird
Change account access for less secure apps
To help keep Google Apps users' accounts secure, we may block less secure apps from accessing Google Apps accounts. As a Google Apps user, you will see a "Password incorrect" error when trying to sign in. If this is the case, you have two options:
Option 1: Upgrade to a more secure app that uses the most up to date security measures. All Google products, like Gmail, use the latest security measures.
Option 2: Change your settings to allow less secure apps to access your account. We don't recommend this option because it might make it easier for someone to break into your account. If you want to allow access anyway, follow these steps:
Go to the "Less secure apps" section in My Account.
Next to "Access for less secure apps," select Turn on. (Note to Google Apps users: This setting is hidden if your administrator has locked less secure app account access.)
If you still can't sign in to your account, the "password incorrect" error might be caused by a different reason.
It seems to be caused by Google Play Account Policy.
Would you try to low down your account security level or try to sign-in on different android device to check again?
Hope the information can help you.
That's interesting info. HTC Mail just had an update yesterday (or maybe the day before). If I were you I would try removing all mail accounts, clear data/cache for the mail app, uninstall update, reboot, install update, and try again.
