Google Account Sign in Error? Since NFS MW purchase yesterday

**joshua.worth** · 11-21-2012, 06:29 PM

Anyone else having this issue both my Galaxy Nexus and my Nexus 7 keep getting sign in error notifications my Google account since yesterday when I installed Need for Speed Most Wanted purchased in the play store. I did sign into my Google account with their online service to connect with friends but promptly changed my password and resigned in on both devices.

Yes. I am getting the same notification on my Nexus 7 and my GS3. I did not install Need for Speed. The only app I downloaded was Echofon. Maybe I'll try uninstalling it. Each time I get the notification, I hit Next and it goes away. So far it has not affected receiving email. But this is annoying.

I resolved it by manually removing my Google Play Store account from my device then signing back into it.

I got that message a couple times this morning, but it hasn't shown up since. It was pretty random.

I was thinking it may have something to do with the new play store update cause every time after hitting next it would goatee some apps. So by manually removing your account you mean you cleared the data on play store?

Nope, from the device's Settings itself:
Settings--> Accounts--> Google--> Remove account

Hmmm.. Don't think you can do that with the main account unless of course they've changed that

I've been having the same issue this evening on both my Evo 3D and my Note 10.1. So I wiped the Google Play cache through the app manager, and we'll see how that does... so far, so good.

Did you try wiping the data for Google Play?

Yes you can do it, not sure when it changed to allow it but currently you can.

I don't think it's phone related but it's on Google's end...

Go to accounts/google/sync
Uncheck sound search for Google play.

What version of the Playstore are you running? The old version is 3.10.9. If you are still on that (like me) that is not the issue.

I've been having the error pop up without touching the phone at all, the past couple days. Just hit sign in and it signs right in. Google is just having some issues right now. Nothing to do with installing apps, I haven't installed any recently.

Seems to have ceased all on its own on both my Nexus devices and likely was server side and a Google issue.

I've had this issue for the first couple of days after installing custom ROMs ever since 4.1.2 came out (both CM10 and AOKP). Not sure if this is a 4.1.2 issue only or not...
