Is their a way to specify what user "talk" uses?
I'm having problems with the marker website and think this might be an issue...
I've 2 google accounts (a gmail and an apps account)
It keeps logging in to the apps account when I need it to log in via the gmail account.
Anyone know where the settings are stored?
Or how to change it to the other account?
Well, I might just be too dumb to do this. But as I use my primary gmail account to activate the phone, and I still want all my email accounts (including this primary gmail) to be aggregated un the email app, now I end up with two entries to this gmail account.
I just feel uncomfortable to see the "gmail" app to stand alone with one gmail account. But since that's setup to activate the phone, there is no way I can remove the gmail account in there. The best thing I can do is to check off the sync options in there (mail, contacts, calendars) but sync from the other duplicated gmail account in the "email" app.
Fortunately they don't have any conflict so far. (I mean no duplicate contacts/calendars). But I still don't feel comfortable knowing the one in "gmail" app is still there... hibernating
I am wondering if any one has a better idea to... I am not sure... maybe "consolidate" the two gmail accounts? Actually all I want is to set all the email accounts in the "email" app. Is that that simple?
Can you just forward your secondary account to your primary GMail?

actually the two gmail account are both the same account.
#1 was set up in "gmail" app when activating the phone
#2 was manually setup in "email" app simply because I like to have all email accounts (together with other hotmail/yahoo/etc) to be aggregated under one single app
Probably I didn't state it clearly enought, hopefully this time it's better.
just turn off the sync like you said. It shouldn't cause any issues. If you are rooted, and know what you are doing, you could try to unistall the Gmail app...but I'm not sure what that would do to your G2x...I know on my HD2 (when I had it), it would run fine without the Gmail app. If you try that, be sure to have a backup first of the ROM.

All my e-mail in 1 place
I like to have all my e-mail in 1 tidy place, too. My G2x is rooted. Here's what I did:
1) Set up all my accounts, both Google and otherwise, in my e-mail client (MailDroid).
2) Shut off AutoSync on my google Gmail accounts.
3) Used Bloat Freezer to freeze the Gmail app.
I like Bloat Freezer but Titanium Backup can also freeze apps.

Just to make sure I get your correct. You click in setting-->acct&sync-->that gmail acct (in gmail app not email app). Then you check off all the 4 sync items (contacts, emails, picasaweb, calendar). That's correct?
Do you still leave the auto-sync on in the parent page (setting-->acct&sync)? I am wondering if I check off that, it will stop the email accounts in the email app syncing and pushing.
I turned auto sync off completely. You can sync Cal and Contacts manually by just tapping "Sync Contacts" on demand.
After I froze Gmail, Sync Email disappeared from the list of sync-able things.
I don't like Auto Sync because of the battery drain.
ok so I have my personal gmail account that I use for everything such as google+, buying apps, ect. Then I have my student gmail account for school and i had both on my phone, however when I have both accounts on my phone every time there is an app that has an update when I click on the notification the market switches accounts on me from my personal one to my school account which does not contain the apps. Does any one know how to keep this from happening?
for the mean time I have just been using the other email app for my student email.
go to settings and clear data for market.. it will fix it .. worked for me
Hello,
I have three email apps on my phone, email (Live), Gmail and Outlook. When I first set up my phone I set my Live account as the default account. Now I want to change it to one of the other accounts but when I open the gmail app settings or the outlook app settings there is no option to set either as the default. The only app that has the set as default option is the email app that I use for my Live account email. If I try to uncheck the set as default box it doesn't let me.
This seems like such a lame question, but does anyone know how to unset my Live email as my default and change it to my gmail or Outlook email?
Thanks

That setting is specific to that app. Since you have only one account in that app, you can't deselect that option. What you probably want is to reset the default email app on the phone. Got to Manage Apps and find the email app and Clear Defaults. Next time you tap on an email link, it will ask what app you want to use (with the option to set as default).

Thanks for the reply. I tried what you said and clear defaults is grayed out. It's not clickable. I cleared data and it reset the app. Now when I try and reset up the email account I get an error message. "80104: system is unavailable to support the request"
I discovered that the outlook.com app will also do my Live email account. So I am using that instead of the installed email app.

can any one suggest me a email app where i can add gmail accounts and get notifications, reply to mails etc without adding the account to my phone/syncing my phone. every mail app i tried asks me to add the account to the android system which is leading to syncing of my personal information to that gmail account.
