Random google error - T-Mobile Sidekick 4G

So just recently I've started getting a sign in error from google. There's a triangle icon in my notifications and if I click on it it says "you have entered the wrong password or your account has changed" I havnt changed my password at all and it still works for my gmail youtube and g+ so idk what this is for but even if I enter my password it says the same thing and the caution triangle won't go away

I was getting that this morning, so perhaps it's a server thing? By any chance, did you swap your sim card from one phone to another? I believe that is when I had the issue come up, but not positive

Nope I've had the same sim since I got the phone

Ah ok, maybe it was just a passing servor error then. Did yours go away? Somehow I rebooted or something and haven't seen the issue since.
Edit: I spoke too soon, just got the error again, and I'm on my G2, not my SK. Hoped we're not being hacked or something lol

Had the same thing on my Desire HD twice over the last two days. The message won't clear if I enter the correct password, so I have to just clear the notification. All Google apps seem to be working fine. I haven't made any changes recently, besides app updates. Server issue?

Everyone having this issue, did you all install the update to Google Plus the other day? From this thread, people are getting the idea that it may be that app doing this.

I probably did. If that is the cause then there is another update in the play store for G+ dated 30/06, which may provide a fix.

Unable to Update

Anyone else have an issue where "Check for Updates" is 100% non-functional? Since I first got the phone, checking for updates always results in the window vanishing and nothing happening. My girlfriend's Thunderbolt always pops up a window saying no updates available. Today when the OTA finally rolled out, her phone picked it right up when I checked for updates. My phone still sits there like it's staring at a wall confused. I've done probably ten factory resets since I got the phone and it maintained the same behaviour each time. Is this a hardware issue or am I not clearing something that the factory reset does not get? Not really a dealbreaker as I can update through HBOOT, but annoying to say the least.

You are probably in a non-4G area and the problem is due to eHRPD. Revert to revision A and then try to update and see if it is any better.
eHRPD has issues... (though Verizon keeps claiming they've fixed it).
I have the same problem and it happens on 4g too. If I press the check for updates button enough it will tell me network isn't available when it is

Sorry to hear that bro, are you rooted? I did glance at you op again and we were having different results. You said your update search window would disappear, but mine would say network not available. I also apologize for misleading you. I'm not sure if this would be a hardware problem, probably more of a software one. But if you really want to I would just root and get the update from jcase's thread or if that isn't the route you want to take maybe Verizon can help. I know, I know, they normally don't but you never know.

I may just go ahead and root. That way my inability to update would be a "feature" and no longer a bug.

Root is definitely the way to go as long as you've done your homework. If you haven't taken this step before make sure you read through everything and understand what you are doing before proceeding. If you have any problems or questions feel free to pm me.
I am having the same exact issue. I even tried manually updating the update.zip file and I keep getting an operation error and phone just reboots. Any ideas why this is happening?

if you are manually doing it the file needs to be in the root of your sd card and named PG05IMG.zip
Will my device be wiped if I use that instead it update.zip?

By doing this, will it wipe my phone or will everything still be intact (like the true ota update)? I still havent received the update and everytime i hit the check new on my phone, the box comes up saying Checking for new Software available now but then quickly just disappears. It seems like it it not fully connecting to servers to check for an update. It has been doing this since day 1 and im getting the feeling I will never receive this update over the air.

Issues w/espn watch now

Hoping someone can help me in time for the mavs/thunder game. I got the app and clicked the setup link in the email they sent me. Signed into my account and selected my provider and everything. Then got redirected to time warner, signed in there to link my account and everything went perfect. I got a pop saying it was done. Then I logged into the app. After I signed in, it said you have access to video. However, whenever I go to play anything, it says subscriber is not found. I sent feedback to espn through the app, but haven't heard anything back and I figured someone else here might have run into the same problem. Also I have adobe air and the latest version of flash player installed.

No Luck on Nook Color
Using Nook Color with CM7 and verizon Fios. Same exact issue. Always shows ESPN3 screen with message subscriber not found
I got mine working, but I had to do the setup through brighthouses website, while in the app. Me and my roommates all got it working though. Click on the setting button in the bottom right. Hopefully this information helps.

[HOWTO] Fix Facebook notifications!

This is a post from Android Central member ccw1134:
"So let's set the table here. Facebook Push Notifications are the golden egg that we're all looking for. Well after reading this you can go obsess about something else...finally (I know I will). I have been beyond frustrated with the chaos that has surrounded this subject. I've spent way too many hours reading and reading then reading some more. I am proud to say that I finally cracked the elusive Facebook Push problem.
I switched from Verizon to Sprint last week (work decision) so I went from a Droid Incredible to a EVO 3D. I was hoping that my Push notification would work when I switched since they never had. To my dismay they did not. My daughter went from a BB Curve to the Motorola XPRT and her FB push notifications worked! She always would always say "Dad you're phone's not so Incredible now, is it?" So when I got my EVO 3D and it didn't work I really became obsessed. After comparing settings on both phones and Facebook settings I found the one anomaly. The list of authorized apps within Facebook (Account dropdown>Account Settings>Applications on the right side of the page) on the computer showed "Facebook for BlackBerry Smartphones" on hers but not mine. It's so simple yet outside of the box. The key is BlackBerry permissions! I am willing to bet that everyone who has working notifications on Android came from a BlackBerry. Okay onto the good stuff.
- Find someone with a working BlackBerry. This could be a friend or any store that has activated demo phones. - Using the Facebook app on the BB log into your account and wait for your stuff to start appearing. I did not log into email or anything else, just FB. - After you see your Newsfeed updated with your information simply log out. - Go into your FB settings on your Android phone and check the Notifications box. The refresh interval doesn't matter (it can even be set to Never). - Notifications should start appearing as you get them (Comments, Wall Posts, Pokes, Likes, Messages, etc.)
I did notice a couple of things that I hope get improved in the notification process. Messages and Friend Requests have their own separate icons for notifications just as they always have. Comments, Wall Posts, , Tagging, Pokes and Likes all share the new notification icon that you will start seeing. Because of this if someone pokes you and then you get a comment or whatever, your Poke notification is gone (I'm assuming because the FB App doesn't officially support Poking yet therefore it doesn't know how to handle that notification) and won't know who poked you. Also if you should happen to click on the poke notification doesn't take you anywhere useful, just the list of notifications (for the same reasons listed in the previous sentence). This is a small sacrifice for now. If someone tags you in a post (I assume a picture will be the same way) you also will still get an email notification to whatever email you use. Just an FYI on that.
For the record I am on Sprint using a nonrooted HTC EVO 3D running 2.3.3 and Facebook is version 1.6.3. I do not believe the carrier, phone model, OS or Facebook version matter but I know there are those out there who want to know this type of stuff."
I will be trying this out, seems promising according to replies there!
(mods, I wasn't sure if this would be the right place so feel free to move it.)

Nope. I came from BB to Android and while I had notifications working about a month ago with a FB app update (nothing to do with switching from BB to Android), they no longer work and they didn't work when I initially switched over either.
I just checked my account settings and the Facebook for BlackBerry Smartphones is still listed there and still has permissions.
Think it is just a coincidence for you.

I don't know what the difference is but I installed the blacked out Facebook located here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1200174
And I now receive notifications for the first time. I just installed the apk today so for me it worked and I have no reason to understand, just that I now get notifications. Can someone else confirm with this that they receive notifications?
The only way i got them to work was to create a new fb account.

Nope, did it last night. Deactivated, then signed back in to reactivate, all from the browser. All your settings, friends, and such stay the same. Now I get every notification.
So you deactivated your whole account from the computer browser? Then reactivated it? No blackberry hoops to jump through.

Are you sure it's all ok? I'm a page administrator too and it's clearly written that I won't get back my administration rights back automaticaly if I deactivate...
i moved the facebook app to the SD card then back to my phone and it seemed to have fixed notifications for me
Wow. So many different fixes it almost seems like coincidence now. I know facebook is free and all and we shouldn't ***** but those guys are getting rich and not really giving anything back. I mean come on? Don't you think somebody that works for them uses android app and can see it sucks?

Issues with Yahoo login

For the past few days I have been having an issue with the stock android email client connecting to my Yahoo mail account. It works for a while but then when I go back to check it I have a message that requires me to re-enter the password.
This only happened after I updated to the latest Humble but I have to think that was a coincidence since it still happens after I reverted back to EP1 and then EP3HA.
WTH? Any ideas?
Thats exactly how mine is!
I too am experiencing the same exact issue... I get a "Sign-in error". Then a prompt that I "Need to update password for email account : [email protected]".
Anyone else seeing this?
I too have been seeing the same issue.
I think it's a general Yahoo issue. Not only have I been seeing it on the phone but I've been seeing it on Outlook on my computer several times a day when it autochecks.
been having same problem abotu 3-4 times a day for yahoo
I am hating it same problem here. I think it has something to do with yahoo servers not our phones or android system
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App
Hate to add just another post but just started on my wifes phone also.
This is infuriating... anyone know somebody at Yahoo who might give a crap about this? I stuck with Yahoo over the years because they never sold out dissidents to the Chinese like Google did... but this is gonna make me leave Yahoo forever.
I went back to stock setup and I am still having this issue...???
My phone as well!
is anyone able to login into thier actual account?
I don't use yahoo, but two of my coworkers recently dumped yahoo because of ongoing problems like this.

Carrier Billing For T-mobile USA Disappears then Reappears

For as long as T-mobile has allowed it, I've always had issues with it randomly disappearing then appearing regardless of what I do. Just to confirm modifying wasn't the cause, I completely restored my device to its out-of-box state to no avail. I've cleared the cache, uninstalled and reinstalled, installed different versions of the market, etc but still nothing
Then one day out of the blue, there it was. The very next day, gone. Not sure if this has been address before, and it's not a major issue, it simply annoys the hell out of me not knowing the cause! Anybody know why?

Very annoying!
Now as far as I know this happens if the app you are trying to purchase has to be paid to an account outside of the USA, but it seems like you were trying to purchase 4ext which I was easily able to pay with tmobile account
