Cannot sign into a Google account? - General Questions and Answers

Hello, I have problem with adding a Google account to my MB860 running the custom 2.3.7 MRom. In fact, when I want to add a Google account in the setting in "Account and Sync", it asks me rather I aent to sign in an existing Google account or create a new Google account. As I already have one, I choose to simply sign in. After that, it asks me for the username of the Google account and the password. And here is the problem. OK, firstly, I enter the primary email address which is not the a Gmail email address (but I use it every time to sign into my account) in the Username box. Then, I enter my password (the one every time I sign into my account) in the password box. And finally, I tap Next and it says that the email address that I provided is not end with @gmail.com and that's mean that I must enter a email address end with @gmail.com. However, I do not think that I have that kind of email address since I only have the primary email address that I use to sign into the Google account and the one they accepted. Next, by curiosity, I check the "Account and Sync" section in my Jelly Bean phone, and what they asks for signing into a Google Account is totally different. In fact, they only asks you for the primary email address that you use to sign in and the password rather than a @gmail.com email address. What can I do?

[Q] How to change Google primary account username

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!

[Q] E-Mail Address Book?

When I have typed an e-mail and go to fill in the "To:" field I cannot see anyway to access an address book and I certainly can't remember them all to manually type in, I am using Gmail and pop3 and neither seem to have an address book.
I just start typing the name and a list appears. If you have no idea what their names are then you will have to start on in contacts, press the address you want and a new email will pop up. This assumes you have contacts in your Google account.
Things will be wonky unless you have an account providing "Address Book" services for lack of a nicer term.
Google Mail/Contacts is idea but it should also work with Exchange and Facebook where such information is available.

[Q] How can I remove my Gmail accounts form Google Chrome's other devices tab?

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.
