Hey guys,
Google disabled my account a few days ago and are not enabling it. Suffice to say I'm never getting that account back. My main concern is how do I add a new Google account while keeping all my apps intact? Like will they carry over to new account and show up in My Apps in Play Store? Also, what about Google Authenticator?
As of right now, everything is working fine on my phone (except Play Store and YouTube). I'm also able to access my Google Authenticator. How do I back it up? Can I simply add another Google account to my phone and everything will transfer? Also, I think all my bought apps are gone for good?
BTW, my phone is Poco F1 and I'm currently running latest MIUI Global Stable, and I have it rooted with TWRP and Magisk.
Any help in this regards will be greatly appreciated.
Thanx a lot in advance
Please help. I'm mostly concerned about Google Authenticator.
OR will I have to disable 2FA on all my Google Authenticator accounts and enable after adding new Google account?
Nevermind.
You can add another google account. If your account is disable it is hard to get it back. You can contact google.
You can add remove apps from store with other google account. Your youtube channel is difficult to get back.
Why your account is disabled.

Ok, here's some explaination for my issue, as it's not exactly a simple situation, I do apologize for the reading that's involved...
--
Recently I've added google+ to one of my google accounts. This re-enabled a previously disabled gmail account, which then proceeded to force itself as the primary login for that google account.
I already had a primary google account on my phone, which is the only account which I want to use gmail with.
When adding my account to my phone, I used the original email address (that was downgraded to secondary) as the login, but upon login, this was magically changed to be the gmail account that I did not want. After *much* searching, I found a way to delete this gmail account entirely, which seems to have worked out flawlessly as far as my online accounts work, from a browser at least. My previous login is now the primary, and my unwanted gmail account has been destroyed.
My issue now, is that this account did not get updated on my phone magically, as it did elsewhere. My phone is still showing the gmail account for that google account, rather than the email that it should be. Additionally, I still have 2 inboxes in gmail, although my secondary google account no longer has gmail associated as a product.
--
So on to my question... Is there some way which I can either edit the google account on my phone to update the login (and clear the gmail association), force the phone to refresh all of that google account data (updating the login name in the process), or perhaps even delete that secondary google account from my phone so that i could re-add it fresh?
If the answer is, that i need to wipe my phone... then that is the answer, but if that could be avoided, it would save me the pain in the butt that would cause.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Figured I'd give this just one bump just in case the right person didn't see it... I'm pretty close to just resigning myself to having to wipe my phone.
Yay for google, always knowing what's best for others...
Do you have the Google+ App on your phone. Is that maybe confusing the Google sync?
If you do perhaps try deleting the app and try syncing the original account?
do google sync again
So did anyone else notice that the new Market has an account setting? Allows me to select different accounts. Does this finally mean that I can merge two accounts worth of apps? Family style?

Im not sure if you can merge 2 accounts, They have to have a way of preventing people from signing into a family members account and downloading apps that were bought thru said account. If not then it poses a serious problem for app developers and devs getting paid correctly. Unfortunately I dont have another account to test it on..

"Your application purchases are tied to your Google Account and can be installed an unlimited amount of times on any device." See:

It works for watching movies rented on another account, too:

Keep in mind you do still have to add the additional Google account(s) to the phone, meaning the device will have access to all other Google services including Gmail.
so lets say I added my gmail account to my wifes phone and downloaded all the apps I have paid for to her phone..couldnt I just delete my gmail from her phone after and her phone would still have all my apps on it?
The documentation doesn't say, but most likely yes, and it'd be real easy to test it. Just add your account, download an app, remove the account, and see what happens.
Keep in mind, though, that without the associated Google account you won't be able to update those apps -- which is an enormous downside in the long run.

I plan on just having a family account to buy apps on, and then add that to all the phones. But it use to be that it had to be the main account.. I haven't purchased any apps yet, recent iphone switcher, but now it appears to not have to be the main account... which is awesome cause google talk only worked with the main.
Hello,
I recently borrowed tablet that I needed to create app for some company, that was the chief's son tablet. I did the job, gived it back and was sure that i logged out from my google account. But right now on my google account in "my apps" I see thousand of free apps and I am scared that this kid will start buying paid games on my credit card. I contacted chief via e-mail, but till now there is no answer. Cannot contact him personally because right now I am not in the city.
So is there any way to exclude one of devices from my google account via web browser on my computer?
Can't you just change your Google password instead?
Well, I didn't thought about this, actually I can do it if there is no other way. I do not know how complicated it will be, because I have this two-step verification login etc.
I don't believe there is any other way of simply deleting a device from your Google account.
Hello, I used tp have two google accounts at the same time in my phone. However, I only use one so I removed the useless one. Then I have realized that many of my installed apps no longer appear in "My apps" in google play. So I do not get updates. If I return back my old account the problem is fixed, but I just would want to not have this account singed in my phone
Anyway to "link" this apps to my new account? Already tried "Market doctor" feature of Ttitanium backup, but didnt fixed
thanks
This is a very old problem, and Google isn't fixing it for reasons best known to them.
I have multiple Google accounts in my device, each for a specific purpose. I buy apps using one account, while I use another account for backups, adding devices like earphones, speakers, etc.
The problems experienced are as follows:
1. Some of the apps where I have in-app purchases fail to verify the account. For some apps, uninstalling and reinstalling using the right account on Google Play Store resolves this problem, while for others, the solution is to remove the other accounts one by one, until the app successfully verifies the account used to make the in-app purchases.
2. I bought a new pair of earphones that support Fast Pair. When trying to set it up, it was not showing the account that I wanted to add the device to. The only way was to remove the accounts from the device one by one until the account I wanted to use showed up on the Fast Pair screen.
3. Purchases on Google Play Store: Same problem when Google Play Store shows the wrong account for making a purchase. Only way is to remove other accounts one by one until the one you want is selected.
Google isn't offering a way to simply change the account that the user wants to use for any of the above scenarios.
As far as I have seen, the account used during 1st setup (which is usually used for Backup and Restore) is given priority or used as a Default account. And Google doesn't offer a way to simply change the account when a particular scenario demands it.
Is there a solution to this problem.
Thanks.
If your phone's Android supports multi-user-accounts then create per each user a related account

That's far from a solution. And my phone doesn't have the multi user feature either.
Does it mean one can't use multiple Google accounts on a device and get things to work as desired?
