Google account sign-in error - LG Optimus 2x

I'm on MoDaCo r12, and it has worked flawlessly thus far.
All of the sudden Google Talk started telling "Google Talk authentication error", and it keeps playing the notification sound at random and sometimes very often. Additionally Gmail has stopped synchronizing without any notice. Not a single error message!
I have never seen this strangeness in the two years of messing around with Android. Settings -> Accounts and sync sometimes tells me that "Sync is having problems and will be back shortly", but mostly it just doesn't work without telling me about any errors.
The log shows lines like these:
Code:
W/DefaultRequestDirector( 1373): Authentication error: Unable to respond to any of these challenges: {}
Sometimes there will be methods listed in the curly braces, but mostly not.
Code:
W/DefaultRequestDirector( 1406): Authentication error: Unable to respond to any of these challenges: {googlelogin=WWW-Authenticate: GoogleLogin realm="http://www.google.com/accounts/ClientLogin", service=""}
I have tried wiping /cache, re-flashing the ROM image, clearing data in any apps I think might be related to Google services. E.g. Google services framework, accounts, account and sync settings, Talk, Gmail, Market...
I have even tried changing the Google account password twice. The phone notices it and accepts my new password like it normally would, but the issue remains.
This is a @gmail.com account. I have a Google Apps account on my phone also, and that one works fine.
Does anyone have any ideas? I'm about to wipe everything and start fresh, but first I would like to know if anyone has any killer tips on to get rid of this. I'm thinking there might be a cached cookie/auth token or something somewhere that's causing this.

Check your date. Possibly you are either in the past or from the future

That's not it I'm afraid. Using ClockSync, so it was only off by about one second after a reboot just now. I tried fix permissions in despair, but to no avail.
As noted above, my Google Apps account works fine, it's just my gmail.com account that doesn't work. Somehow it seems that Contacts and Calendar are sync'ed. Meaning the time and date of last sync on those are a few minutes ago, but Picasa is dated two days ago, Gmail yesterday.
I checked it on my Nexus One too; it pops up the password prompt (because I changed my pass) and then goes on to synchronize everything perfectly fine. Wtf could cause this! I haven't really done anything but read Twitter, Facebook and some RSS via Pulse before it stopped working. I only updated a couple of apps that is not related in any way and have not changed any system settings.

Fcuk it, I wiped it all and restored apps with titanium backup. All good now.

Hi, i to have a problem with Google account sign in but its with Play store, every time i try to use Play store it asks me to ether use an existing Google account or make a new account even though i have a Google account set up on my phone. So my question is how can i get back on to Play store with my Google account? Tried by removing my account from my phone then going on to Play Store and signed in with my account but when i tried going back to Play store again it asked me to ether make a new account or use an existing account.

I guess its becoz in some parts of the world youtube services has been shutdown and it as affected google services communication badly. I live in pakistan and here we cant access to google play and other google services as well.

Once had the same problem and until I realized I had an error with my baseband, I pulled out a lot of my sparse hair.
Make a good backup and try to flash new bb, then Google will recognize you again (I hope!!!!)

[Q] Failed to add google account

I was happy with the NF, and added all the gApps after installing it. It worked fine. However the contact.apk was missing, so I reinstalled NF using CWR.
After that the contacts was back but since then I can't add google account after gApps are added. The "can't establish a reliable data connection to the server" error showed up every time.
I tried to reinstall NF, back to stock 1.0.1 and NF again, changing the time, delete settings.db, or even the YouTube trick. All of them don't work.
Any suggestions to solve it?
*update*: Youtube trick worked:
1. Go to youtube.com and sign up for a new account, using the email address you want to add to your phone
2. Open the YouTube application on your Adroid phone, sign out of your account if you're currently signed in (menu button -> sign out)
3. Sign in-menu button-my account, log in with your EMAIL ADDRESS (not your YouTube username)
4. Now You're all done - you can sign out of the account in the YouTube app again if desired. Go to Settings-Accounts and you should see your account in the list.

Market is not working anyway...
Getting the same error after installing Nookie Froyo v0.6.7 to SD, and adding the Gapps (per the nookdevs.com wiki), try to add account/Google results in "can't establish a reliable data connection to the server"
I can surf web, use the Facebook and Youtube apps.
Google's Blunder
Search google for can't establish reliable data connection change the options to 'latest' and it looks like this one's on google. I just flashed my firmware for my elocity a7 and got the same error all last night and this morning when trying to sync my google account. Hold fast, daylight will break soon. . .
update:
The YouTube worked when I try to add "@gmail.com" after my username.
However, the Market gives me a "A Server error has occurred. Retry, or cancel and return to the previous screen." error message and I can't get in. Contacts and Gmail is now working though.
Im having the same issue.
Picked up my Nook Color yesturday evening, I've booted Honeycomb off the SD card and then used HoneyGApps.v2 to install Market and a bunch of other apps.
However I get the following error when attempting to add my Google Account:
"Cannot Establish a Reliable Data Connection"
Tried a few things like clearing app cache and rebooting but I can get around this issue.
Anyone have any ideas for what I could try? Im connected to a strong wifi connection so its not a connectivity issue, I can browse the net no problem.
Signing into Youtube with your gmail account username/password gets you logged in, but it looks like a Google network server is down now, so still no Market access
It's Google's problem after all?
I used a WHOLE DAY trying to fix it...(censored)
you sure it's Google's server down?

I opened the Youtube app and tried to sign in.
Even though I haven't "setup" a youtube account before... I used my Gmail address I was trying to add to my Nook. Youtube signed me in.
I went back to Settings -> accounts -> Accounts & Sync.. it gave me a black screen that was there for about 20 seconds. Then I got the "add account" screen with my GOOGLE account listed. When I opened it, it had nothing listed. Then, Calendar showed up. As I sat there, Picassa Web Albums, contacts and Gmail later appeared and started synching.
The sync of those items took about 20 minutes. (I did uncheck picassa).
Trying to open Market, I now get "a service error has occured" so I tried...
Code:
Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> All -> Market
Clear Cache then Force Stop -- DO NOT clear data
Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> All -> Google Services Framework
Clear data then Force Stop
Reboot
It didn't help.
Also, I notice my browser seems a little slow, and while the facebook app runs, it takes a bit to load up... And when I launch the Gmail app, it shows about have the screen worth of mail, but I see the "loading conversations" at the bottom of the screen for about 5 or more seconds
I just turned my Nook on this morning to find that I can now add my Google account and open the Market. (Morning being 7.50am UK Time).
Must have been a glitch or a few reboots required....
@dhumpherson, what issue did you have previously with adding your account? Was it after you click ont he android robot (right at first screen) and attempt to enter your gmail account? That is where i cannot have success. I did enter into gmail before rooting, and i've read that may be an issue and i need to get rid of the data saved from that login, but i haven't located instructions yet for that.
If you had been unable to login at that initial screen but found an answer please let me know what you did. *If i enter an incorrect password the continue interface will tell me this, so it knows i'm entering the correct one when i do, but it just returns me to the login page, after the display blinks.

[Q] Google account sync error - "Sync is currently experiencing problems..."

[Q] Google account sync error - "Sync is currently experiencing problems..."
Hi guys,
I'm having issues with my Google account sync.
Google Play Music is causing my account to have a sync error.
I get the error message:
Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And there is a sync icon with an exclamation point (!) by Google Play Music, when I press into my Google Account in Settings.
It's been like this for a few days now and I feel it's affecting my battery life, as the failed sync re-tries again and again.
Some forums have suggested disabling 2-step verification, removing the Google account and then adding it back, clearing app cache, etc.
I've done it all with no success.
For what it's worth, if I un-check the Google Play Music sync box and run the "Sync Now," sync all, their are no errors and the UI shows a successful sync icon.
I'm not sure what's going on here.
Thanks,

Try removing your Google account and then add it back. That sometimes fixes it.

I just came across your post from a Google search and thought I would post my solution. This literally happened to me today out of nowhere(never had a problem before) and it totally stumped and frustrated me to no end. I tried cache reset, factory reset, all that bulls**t and it didn't work.
This is how I finally got sync to work:
>>login into your Google account from a web browser eg: google.com, play.google.com, wherever
>>in the upper right corner go to where it shows your profile info, click on your picture, and click Account
>>on the next screen click Security
>>where it says Account Permissions click View All
>>you have 2 choices: you can revoke access on everything you see or just extra devices. Personally, I had 4 Droid DNA's and 4 Nexus 7's listed from where I've done factory resets or ROM installs and I had to reauthorize my Google account. All I did was revoke access for the ones that said "no activity in the past 60 days". Within seconds Google Play was already auto-updating apps on my phone, I couldn't believe it.
This may not work for you but it's how I got it to work. Good luck.
Google looks to be having issues today so I would bet that's the problem

Phone fails to sync with Google?

Title says it all. My M8 refuses to sync with my gmail account. I noticed it a few days ago when I stopped getting notifications for gmail. Gmail, youtube, and even the Play Store simply do not work. Gmail tells me there is a network error and no connection, YouTube just does not load, and the Play Store tells me there is no connection. Neither my main google account or my school account can sync. However, within gmail, my hotmail account syncs just fine. I can access my gmail accounts just fine through web, it's just in my phone that they do not work. I tried to remove my main gmail account to see if that would fix it but when I went to add it back the phone says "Can't establish a reliable connection to the server. This could be a temporary problem or your android device may not be provisioned for data services. If it continues, call Customer Care." Thinking my account may have been hacked or some ****, I went into gmail on my laptop to change my password. Once I logged in, I noticed I had a chat request from an email account that I've never heard of before. Lizzie or some crap like that. I changed my password and tried again on my phone. No dice. I'm running Badseed with their custom kernel, if that makes any difference. Thanks in advanced!

Help!! Google Now Network Error

Hi All,
I have searched and tried many solutions on the net and still can't get my Google Now to work. Every time when attempt to start Google Now, it tells me there is an network error. I have tried the below, and so far no luck, and it is very very frustration. Please help!!!!
1. Paused all account history and cleared out past histories.
2. Under Google Settings -> Search & Now -> Now Cards -> Delete card preferences
3. Deleted Google account on my phone and re login
4. Tried an older version of Google Now, login, then update to the newest version.
The funny thing is when I used my wife's google account, Google Now pulls right now. It seems like my google account is messed up? Thank you guys in advance!
just tried my google account on my wife's phone, and it gave me the same error. i really think something is wrong with my google account and i have no idea where it went wrong.
Buying beers for someone who helps me figure this out. It's really bothering me!
got access to Google Now with VPN to a UK server. think this google now issue is a location issue. I do seem to have problem wiping my location history. no one else is having this problem?

Can't sign into chrome?

I can't seem to sign in to google chrome using my account. My bookmarks and etc. were showing but every time I try to sign it I get the message 'this account already exists on the phone' and my history wouldn't sync. So, I removed my google account and signed it back into my phone.
The google account signed in on my chrome app then it just went back by itself, now I've tried to log in again and it says the same message now with no bookmarks syncing either.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app updates too, not sure what to do from here.
Anybody have any ideas?
same here. deleting the google account or uninstalling chrome does not help.
i manage to auto sign in into all other google aps
This happened to me when I changed my Google password while still logged in on my phone. I backed up via Huawei desktop software and factory reset my phone through recovery and it's all good now. Nothing else seemed to fix it.

Finally managed to fix it! I made sure the app had all the permissions set then I uninstalled all the updates again, this time I signed in first and it ended up working as normal then I just updated the app again and it worked perfectly. Not sure if the apps permission effected it but definitely try uninstalling the updates then signing in first before updating again.

Uninstall Google play services & chrome update first (bring it back to factory pre installed version) then login using chrome first before updating anything.
happened to me before when i update before got chance to sign in
Uninstalling Google play services solved all my problems

Hi all. I also have this issue. Which Play Services do you have to uninstall?
Just give the Google apps permission to your contacts and it will work
Well done all. It worked perfectly. See there sad a bug in the last update
