[Completed] How can I recover my old account? - XDA Assist

Tried to open a new account with Google+ to ask a question regarding a post on my phone but I'm restricted. When I try to access my old account with Hotmail I get my password wrong...When I try to recover the password, it points me back to the new account with another strike on my password attempts. I just want my old Hotmail account with full access back.

[APP] Could an app be stealing Google account settings?

I've had GMAIL since day 1.. NEVER had any issues with my account.. used it on a normal basis. Since getting into my Dinc, I've had to go through 2 account verifications with Google to get back into my account.. both times changing my password. I see that "something" has been spamming email from my account.. at first I thought it was spoofing my email address as the sender, but now I am seeing the email in my sent folder...
Question, is there an app that can monitor when this kind of activity is going on with my phone like this? It's not my computer... I forward all my GMAIL to my main email account (not gmail) so I NEVER log into GMAIL on a computer.. the only thing that is actively logged in is my phone..
Ideas?
I've had the same problem, ended up restoring an old nandroid backup & reinstalling the things i''d lost.
seems t have fixed the issue but my gmail defiantly got hacked; everyone with a hotmail account got sent spam
Just because your email account was hacked does not 100% indicate a malicious program on your phone or computer.
For example: You could have signed up for a website or forum using the same password as your email account. If that forum DB gets compromised, then your password could have been decrypted from the sql database...
It's possible some app has sent an email if:
You've entered your Google password to that app.
You've authorized that app for Google account using WWW (OAuth) or Android OS, but you didn't notice it requests permissions for sending emails.
You gave root permissions to that app and you have Google account set up in Android OS.
I think there is no other way to get access to your account.

[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.
