I setup a Google account with a cc for the android Market and I think that was the first of a few accounts I added to my phone. That however isn't the account I want to use with the app "talk" (google chat). Is there any way to change the account talk uses?
I don't see an option
Thanks!

Factory wipe data ....then sign in the account u want to use talk with first then open talk. Then add the other accounts
Won't that erase everything?!

Yes but if u are rooted use titanium backup for all your apps beforehand then just restore them

May be a stupid Q
How do i restore the account settings ( I mean my gmail and facebook )alone after a.new rom update.
I do not want to restore any other apps.

After TB loads goto the back/restore tab, click the app you want & restore (data only if the app is already installed). For Gmail you should have everything synced when you add your gmail acount to your phone.
I have the Nexus S and recently, I came under the suspicion that my Gmail was hacked. So I went on my computer and changed my Gmail password. But now, my phone has become a wreck. It cannot sync with my gmail, I can't even access the Market. I cannot seem to find a way to change the password on the phone to my current password for Gmail. Is there any way to do this without deleting the main account on the phone? I really do not want to reset my phone for simply needing to change my password...
Not to be a fun sponge but since its your primary device account you may be out of luck.

I would recommend using mybackup root to backup your call log, mms, sms (texts) and titanium backup root to backup your apps. Makes the reset hurt way less

I guess that's my only option. Can't believe Google has made it this much of a hassle for a simple password change. Thanks man.
No no dont hard reset for such an easy stuff!
Just pop in another sim card and for privacy the password will be removed, then insert the right one

If your phone is cdma and you cannot switch the sim card, you can just delete the gmail account settings from the application manager (i dont remember the english name), anyway, wiping for something like that, is like throwing an atomic bomb to kill mosquitoes

It won't let you delete the primary device account even if you have another gmail account attached. :-(

I am not sure in gingerbread, but in previous version was possible to let the system forget the account by just removing user data for something like "gmail archive" (not sure about english name)
And if you change the sim card, you have to reinsert the password, happened many times to me, annoying

For some reason my google search doesn't show the history anymore when I type in something and my old searches don't show up any suggestions?

You either arent logged in to the same google account on your phone or you cleared history by accident.
Well I have two google accounts so how do I log into the right one on the widget

Login to the main account first, then use the widget and hten sign into the 2nd account.
[Q] My wife and I have both our google accounts on her XOOM. Now that I have my own Fire, if I remove my account off her XOOM will she lose all the apps that were downloaded under my account?
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA
Most likely, yes. The apps bought/downloaded into your account are linked to it.
That's what I was thinking. What about backing up the apps and data with Titanium Backup, remove my account, then restore apps and data?

You should beable to just remove the account. If that doesn't work, tb should do the trick (although it may be considered Warez at that point).

I'm not certain, but the apps could stay there, but not be updatable via market.
I have apps not purchased via market, and all that I get when I try to manually update (need to find first, doesn't show up under 'my apps') is "not purchased".
I tested this out on my Fire by adding her account and then downloading a game. When I removed her account, the app and progress I made stayed but it did not show under my apps in the market. Guess we'll just have to manually search for the app if we want to see if there are any updates.

I recently followed all of the steps to flash cm7.2 from dragonzkiller and am having trouble restoring my contacts and basically any verizon services and/or apps. Also the only account that I can add is my Google account. I love the look and feel of this mod, however it's useless to me without being able to add all of my accounts and restore my contacts.
