Mail app and yahoo??

I didn't actively disable G+, but I never logged into it, and had no issues with the Gallery app.

How did you get past the setup screen? You have to create a Google account just to use the phone or enter an existing one? It doesn't have to be a Gmail address but you still had to have an account, no?

The setup screen gives you the option to set up a Google account "later." If later turns into never, the phone still works. It's just the Google ecosystem that doesn't work.

Ah I see. I've always had a Google account, even before having a gmail account, so didn't realize it was optional to enter it.

Does Gmail 5.0 require you to make a gmail account? Id like to avoid gmail completely if possible.

Since you're using an Android device, then it automatically uses the Google account that you used for that device. I tried checking and I don't think there's a way to remove the Gmail account from the Gmail app.

To setup your device mail client, you need to create an app password on Yahoo, in your account Info section (my mobile is a LG3) .
Sign into Yahoo Mail as you normally do on a Desktop Computer (can not do on a mobile device). Go to (top right). Help then Account Info . Scroll down to Sign- In and Security , Setup your second sign-in verification, click onto. It will bring you back to sign into Mail, go on and sign in, it then will bring you to Set up your sign-in verification. Go down to App passwords. Click onto Generate app password. It will generate your password that you then use as your password on your mobile device mail client. You will only use this password this one time . When entering your app password on your device, all you do is key in your ID/name and the app password, then click next. You then name it and next/done.

Hope this helps! It took me a while to find this info on Yahoo, hopefully I save you the trouble. Good luck!!

if there is a way to contact me on here you can do, to get link- new here so not sure..lol
