Can not log in to Google anymore - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey all,
Just for funs I started up the G1 again today.
Now when I got it a few years back, I was able to finally downgrade with a goldcard and yada yada yada. Bottom line, I was in. I had my phone set up and all was working.
Today I start it up and it seems I have a log in error.
But somehow it wont accept my Google password.
I have 2-step verification set up. Could that be the problem ?

Anyone ?

I've been able to log in my Google account using two-step authentication, but have been unable to log in to Android Market. I'm running a FroYo 2.2 ROM (CM 6.1).
Google dropped support for Android Market on versions older than 2.1 in 2017, and I was hoping that it would work with this 2.2 ROM, but no dice.

just did downgrade yesterday to free up 10 meg space then found out market no longer works ...

Beginner question: Unsure which version of froyo is on my phone

So I bought a Nexus One on craigslist. I thought it was all stock until I ran into the "cannot establish reliable sever connection" when I tried to sign into my google account. My question is how do I restore my phone back to the newest version of android 2.2. It is not unlocked (no unlocked padlock on boot screen). Under "Build number" it says "passion-userdebug Froyo FRE74 28579 test-keys." Under Android version it says "Froyo" instead of 2.2. And many of the 2.2 features are not present such as wifi tethering, and the new icons at the bottom center of the home screen aren't there. I only have the single grid icon and not the set of 3 with the browser and phone. And i'm not sure where to go from here. I want to be able to log into my gmail account and the android marketplace. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Assuming you verified you have Data Connection enabled and have the proper APN settings::::
Your seller may have rooted the phone without necessarily unlocking the bootloader. see
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=710842
Also, the link I just added shows the different versions of 2.2 (missing a couple) but FRE74 doesn't look like one of them.
First find out if it is a rooted phone, Check the app drawer for any SuperUser or Spareparts icon. That or try installing Busybox from the marketplace and executing it.
If it is rooted,flash one of the many ROMS available on XDA, Cyanogen just released his beta version tonight. Personally I use Enomther Rom. Official version is out.
And BTW, read up on the process of flashing... most require you to wipe first.
and if it is not rooted....
All you need to do is do a Factory Reset
Settings / Privacy / Factory Data Reset
After that check what your Build number is.
Then you can go to your dialler and enter
*#*#checkin#*#*
What that will do is connect your phone to the Google servers, say hello, and the server will send the update to your phone. (Force OTA - Over The Air update)
My data connection is working, I browse the internet fine except for the youtube app and gmail.com. When I go to gmail.com through my browser I get "a secure data connection could not be established." But yahoomail and flickr logins work fine on both wifi and 3g. No superuser or spareparts icons in the drawer. I can't access the android marketplace since I cannot log into my google account. I did the factory restore and the build number is the same. I did the checkin from my dialer and it said "checkin failed"
So it seems like the phone is rooted but I just need to flash a rom with the froyo features I want. Any links or guides to doing this? I read and superboot seemed like the easiest way.
Sounds to me like an issue with radio... flash a new radio might do the trick. However, before I start messing around with the radio not knowing anything about my phone, I'd look into doing this first.

This will bring your Nexus One back to it's original shipping rom. It's gonna be alot of work, BUT this IS almost a $600 phone.
So I followed those directions and i'm back on android 2.1 and i can log into my google and everything seems to work fine. I want to update to 2.2 so I go to system updates, download the update, and install. But during the install process it shows the little box with the android and the loading bar but it stops and goes to the android and the exclamation point. I'm not sure what to do from here. My Build Number is ERD79
Hold Volume up and press Power (or possibly the other way around). That should bring up the recovery menu.
I tried once with the OTA update I downloaded, the phone restarted and tried to install by itself but went to the android with the !. So I download a froyo rom and rename it update.zip, not .zip.zip. And put it on my phone, I'm in the blue recovery screen and it says signature error. I'm thinking its the wrong rom i'm using.

Google account problem

Is it just me or why I cant log in on my google account.
I can log on my google account on internet, but not by phone apps.
I upgraded from JF3 to JM8 yesterday, but I didnt try yday.
So is it google server problem or is it on my end?
Btw might this have anything to do with an error i got while flashing. "applying multicsc,copy_multi_carrier from: XEE, cannot access /system/csc/XEE/system" but it went forward anyways.
edit: upgrated to JM9 and now signing in works. weird :F

Need a little help please...

I have been running just about every 2.2 ROM out there without any problems. Last night, I installed a new ROM and couldn't access my Google account so I flashed back to stock. I then was able to sign into Google and the Market, ETC. I then flashed to COG and again couldn't sign into Google. I done a factory reset,booted into recovery to factory reset/ clear cache and still nothing! I keep getting the error message "Couldn't establish a connection" on every 2.2 ROM I have tried! Any help will be greatly appreciated.......
Could be because 2.2 messes up your Android ID, you probably need to reset it. From stock 2.1 get an app called Android ID changer and get your unique code, write it down. Then after flashing a 2.2 ROM use the same app to reset it back.
I just tried Android ID changer and it doesnt seem to work. I can still access my Google account on 2.1 but not any of the 2.2 ROMs.
Could someone upload the Android ID changer APK? I cant access the market and seem to have lost mine. Thanks

OK, now I have access to my G mail by logging in to you tube...Go figure! Now when I try to open the market, I get "a network error has occurred".
I still cant access the market. Anybody have any ideas on a possible fix? I have tried everything I can think of.

No Data Network Available

Installed cyanogen 6.1 on a G1 I just acquired at no cost but now can't setup my "google account" errors out about not being able to find reliable data network.
Initially I had wiped the phone with the stock ROM and was able to do the initial sign-up of the google account and tested the android market without much of a problem.
After alot of reading, root and learning about Android via a crash course. I was able to sucessfully install cyanogen 6.1 but now I can't setup the phone.
I thought that my trial and error method of getting things working may have caused the problem so I did a complete wipe and started from scratch (minus the error) once more to make sure everything was good. But still no go on setting the google account.
Yes, I do have a dataplan as I was using an HTC TouchPro2 before this.
Any ideas?
SPL: HDBOOT - 1.33.0013d
Radio: 2.22.28.25
ROM: update-cm-6.1.0-DS-2708port_S, gapps-mdpi-tiny20101020-signed.
At the Google Sign-in screen, hit menu, APN, enter your APN.
There should be a skip option on CM anyway.
APN looks correct. I'm able to skip the sign-up but I can't access anything that requires net access. No android market; no browser...nothing.
Did you flash gapps after flashing the rom? Not all roms come pre-installed with gapps.
Sent from my HTC Dream using XDA App
Yes, I installed gapps-mdpi-tiny20101020-signed
dump a logcat using adb during boot process perhaps?
or try checking the SIM with another phone. similar thing happened to me once-upon-a-time, and apparently it was the SIM and not the phone *doh*
I had the same problem but when i reboot the phone the problem is solved for some time ( 1 a 2 hours) so i have to reboot my phone a lot.
im having the same problem with cm6. i have tried going to biffmod and get the same problem and data is turmed on.
Yep, tried another mod same issue; also went as far as to unroot it and problem still exists.
Does anyone know if the Radio firmware could be the potential culprit?
SIM card works fine on my HTC TouchPro2...running android
Try a diff radio perhaps, not sure if thats the issue.
It has got to be the APN... Do you get a G/E/3G icon?
Just wanted to updated that I have now been able to successfully get CM 6.1.0 working on the G1. Seems that it all came together once I received my G2 and my data plan was changed.
Yay!!

[Q] Trouble with Market Website not pushing installations

I've been unable to install apps from the Android Market Website since day 1. I've exchanged a number of e-mails with Google Support which suggested the usual:
Log-out of Google Talk and then log back in.
Turn phone off, remove battery, turn back on.
I also cleared application data for the Market.
When using the website, my device/account is recognised and i'm not presented with any errors when clicking install. The icon then turns to 'Installed' but nothing happens on my phone. No download in progress, no installation. Google said they were aware of an issue and applied a fix, but this hasn't changed anything for me. I'm using Android Market 2.3.2 and running Darkyy's ROM 9.3 b3 (but I've searched that thread and not found anyone with the same problem). Chrome-to-phone pushes are working fine and using the market through my phone also works fine.
Anybosy else had the same problem?
b does that not mean its a Beta rom unfinished released for testing and bug reports only .
I would try app brain http://www.appbrain.com/info/getting-started
Or use another rom
jje
it is a beta, you're right, but nobody else seems to be having the same issue which makes me a little hesitant to attribute it to the beta ROM. It was also the case with the beta 2. I've used AppBrain, but hoping to get the Android Market Website working. I'll report back once a stable release for Darkyy's is released, and failing that, I'll try a stock ROM and let you know. Cheers.
I'll report back once a stable release for Darkyy's is released
due date the twelfth of never .

[Resolved]
Just thought i'd point out that this issue was sorted by an update by google on their side.
