How can you remotely sign out or remove the Android Sync account from a device?
Just recent got robbed in a mall.
Download androidlost at google play via pc. You can locate lock or what so ever. Use your account on phone to access it.

I can't remember my password and Google close my email account associated my device. If I open a new account the device will clear all content. I try Samsung costumer service but can't help since they do not hold access to clients accounts.
Can any one help?
Thanks!

You can't go to Samsung's website and hit forgot password?
No. I lose access to gmail account associated with the device.

Hello all,
I've decided to ditch Gmail and use the stock mail app. One if my accounts was hacked recently so Google had me add an extra layer of protection that when ever I sign in from another new device (or when I change ROMS) it sends me a verification code in a text message to complete the sign in. Is this what's preventing me from being able to sign into my account using the HTC mail app? Is there a way around it or something I'm missing when trying to set it up.
Thanks,
Mark

You have to go into your Google security settings and get a unique password that you will use for the HTC mail app. You will use the password supplied when you setup the mail app instead of your Google password. You will find it near the bottom of the security screen.

Where are the Google security settings at? I was able to go to Google settings and hit the 3 dots on the to right and one of the options was to get a verification code and it gave me one. I tried to use it as a password without a space in the middle and with but it still says failed.

I am not near a computer right now but you might need to get to the Google security settings via a browser. A verification code will definitely not work. You need to set an app specific password. Try to Google search "two step authentication app specific password" sorry I can't be of more help right now. If I was near a computer I could give you exact steps.

Then click on settings for app passwords
It will generate a one time use password that will not be shown again after initially generated. You can save it if you wish, but you can generate as many as you wish so there really isn't a need. You can also revoke it at any time.
Thanks to both of you for the help. It worked like a charm.

Glad you got it to work. Too bad Google doesn't make that function a bit more obvious.

Hi I locked my phone so that I won't have distractions from the app store using app block but I realized how I can just log into my google account online in play.google.com and I can just install it from there. Is it possible to block this feature? Thank you
