BB Tour :: Message Regarding Gmail Password Validation?
May 14, 2011
I had a message on the general message screen telling me that my gmail password needed to be validated. i never had a problem receiving gmail to my general messages before this. I rarely use the gmail app on the phone because it tends to use more battery than the general message space. Here is what I did:
1. I went to email settings and tried to put in the password. I got a message telling me that the password was not valid even though I know it is the correct password. So I tried again.
2. I turned my phone off and then back on and tried again - same message appeared. I read further and it said that if the problem persisted I needed to contact gmail.
3. I next did a battery pull. The same message appeared again when I tried again - and again!
4. I deleted my gmail account from the phone, turned the phone off, turned it back on and then tried to reenter the gmail account and password. It told me that that gmail account was already in the phone - but the password still would not validate.
5. I changed my gmail password on my computer, tried to input the new password into the account on the phone and that didn't work either!

I have had my bbry tour for 3 years and never had this problem. I am getting a message that I need to validate my email on my blackberry, but every time I try it says not a valid username password and can't validate. I have my name & password written down so I know they are correct, but the system doesn't recognize it.

Starting yesterday - April 7, my Gmail account keeps losing validation. I deleted account, set it up again. Went through okay and a few minutes later, the account needs to be validated again. The Gmail account is working okay as it receives email normally and I have made no changes to it.

I have been getting my emails pushed to my blackberry Tour fine for months. This morning I changed my password on my gmail account and now it will not let me receive messages on my blackberry. I deleted the account through the email settings and tried to re add it and it keeps saying username or password is invalid. It seems very odd to me.

I've been sending and receiving hotmail email from my 8310 without a problem for the last year, until I changed my email password yesterday. i've changed my password before, but this is the first time there's been a problem.Since yesterday, I haven't been able to access my account, and any attempt to validate through 'email settings' have brought up the "Invalid email address or password: Please verify your email address and password. The information you provided is incorrect." message.I even changed my password again to see if the new password was the problem, but no joy.

I have had a message from Blackberry to validate my email address - this has happened several times and was just a case of entering my password. I have tried to do this and it keeps saying that my password is invalid. It isn't though, it is my correct password.

I can't send/receive emails on my BlackBerry Curve. I got a message from BlackBerry that I have to validate my gmail password but when I follow the instructions, I can't get it to work. I go to "setup wizard" then to "email settings". It says if I want to access my email, to enter my user and password. I've tried all the user ID's that I would have used but nothing works. When I click on "forgot password" and go through that, it tells me it's sent my password has been sent to my BlackBerry, but it doesn't come.

I have had an email requiring me to log in with my username and password to validate my email (apparently this is something that happens every 360 days!?). For the life of me, I can't recall my username and password. I have tried entering my hotmail email address and password but this does not appear to work. I am unaware of any other password. I keep getting: blank user name. Type a valid user name. I have typed in my email address in user name...I have also requested a reminder for my password - my Curve 8520 tells me this has been sent but I have not received any such email or text.

My gmails are all automatically deleted at random times throughout the day. This only occurs on the blackberry, not on my computer. Brought device to sprint tech support and they did a hard reset, but problem still occurs. Any suggestions?

I recently owned the curve 8530 and liked the setting to make the messages appear in bubble format rather then line separated. The Tour that i have now does not have that option. Does anyone know if it exists due to an OS upgrade, or anyway else i can get sms to display in bubbles?

I use my BB for personal use only. The email account I have registered on the phone is my gmail account. Just today, I noticed I can no longer send (compose new or reply) emails using this account on my phone. I get the following message in the email I attempt to send:
message status message included an invalid address
I can receieve my gmail messages on my phone no problem. My gmail account login information is correct on the phone.
I've tried searching for this problem but what I find always seems to be related to enterprise configurations using an Exchange Server and the fix was for the Exchange server. That doesn't fit my scenario.

so this may have been asked before but i cannot seem to find any threads on it..probably just searching the wrong terms.so im using gmail on my tour..when doing so and replying to an email, my address is always displayed as opposed to the my name. i.e. John.Doe@gmail.com instead of John Doe in the replies. Also, the header from the email i am responding to is displayed as well. I don't see these on the tour itself, however when i am looking at the email in gmail (on a computer)

Anyone out there with OS 5.0 tried the Gmail Mobile App yet (not Gmail IMAP w/BIS)? The problem the Tour has always had is the notifications for Gmail don't work or if they work when the Gmail Mobile App is first installed, they get lost as soon as the phone is rebooted. Then even uninstalling Gmail and reinstalling it doesn't fix it. If it's working on your Tour with OS 5.0, after a phone restart, do you still have Gmail Messages as a choice under "Profile | Set Ring Tones/Alerts | Other? What typically happens is the "Gmail Messages" doesn't display unter "Other" so you can't change email notifications, LED settings, nothing regarding the Gmail Mobile App.(don't recommend I use Gmail IMAP w/BIS..at least not unless it's October already and RIM has added all the Gmail features that are still missing

I'm having trouble getting my BB to sync with my Gmail inbox. When I delete messages in Gmail they don't delete on my BB and when I delete them on my BB they don't disappear from my Gmail inbox.

I'm using the default functionality in my new Tour 9630 (Sprint) to read my Gmail and Facebook messages, and there appears to be no way to 'mark all as read,' which I need since any changes I make to my Gmail messages (e.g., reading them so they are then marked as read) is not refleted in my Tour.How do I mark all the messages as read?

I have been trying to upgrade/update BBM, but receive either an error message or username/password incompatible message. How do I get this cleared up? The same thing happens with other App updates.

I have searched back 3 months and can't find an answer. New BB user with the Sprint Tour. Trying to set up gmail. I go to email setup and select gmail. I type in my email address and password and all I get is "Unable to set up xxxxxx@gmail.com Please try Again"
Imap is enabled on Gmail. I don't want to use the gmail app, just want to check my gmail every once in awhile.

I saw last week on Crackberry that some users were seeing their read messages sync properly from gmail onto their BB. Have any Verizon Tour users seen this? Since last week messages I send from the web gmail interface appear on my BB but when I view a message online it doesn't show as read on my BB. Has anyone with Verizon and the Tour gotten this to work properly?

if i delete an email on my handheld it does not delete from my actual gmail account. in fact, it doesnt even say that its read. well, on the computer next to inbox it doesnt say any are new, but when i look at the inbox, i still have the emails and it shows them bolded like they were not read at all. when i delete on my bb, nothing happens to gmail. i tried deleting my gmail address from my phone, resending service books, battery pulls but none of that has resolved. i made sure that handheld wins was set to on under wireless reconciliation and in the VZW BIS control/email settings i have it set to sync deleted emails.
i tried fooling around with the contact sync a few days ago but stopped it becaues it wasnt working (this is the only new thing ive done with my bb in the last week or so). i also downoaded the new socialbeat app from verizon/iskoot. but other than that nothing is new in the last few days. i am running driphters 6.3 on top of whatever OS its supp to be installed on (.484 i think?). dont just jump to that as the problem because i have had it for almost a month and have not had a problem until now (that i tried that stupid contact sync bullsht).

So today I had a unrecoverable 552 error and decided to just upgrade Sprint's 5.0 OS. Everything seems to be working fine, except now I'm getting the problem that the enhanced g-mail plugin isn't working correctly. I have it installed, but it doesn't seem to add any options for stars, labels, etc. It's listed in the applications page in the options, so I'm not sure what to do. I've uninstalled it and reinstalled it countless times and did a battery pull after each. Does anyone know what may be causing this problem?

I am new to this device and I had Verizon transfer all 300 of my contacts from my old phone to the tour. When I ran email set up with my gmail account i didn't notice that i checked the contacts box and it deleted all 300 of the contacts I had changed over and left only 20 or so (who i imagine are from my gmail account). I deleted the gmail account from my phone, is there a way to delete the gmail list from my contact list? I go to options and it's the only contact list in my phone and it doesn't give me an option to delete. I even tried re-adding the gmail account to my phone and unchecking the contact list button--to no avail.

I did it previously and now it doesn't work. Sprint doesn't know what they are talking about I'm hoping someone here does.My Yahoo! account syncs PERFECTLY w/my Tour. My Gmail and WindowsLive accounts do not. I can delete a msg from the PC and it remains on the phone. I delete from the phone and it remains on the PC.

I've had my BB for just over a week. I changed my gmail password (for security reasons) yesterday and this morning I received an email from BB requesting that I verify my gmail account/password. Since then I have not been able to (i) find/view my work email folder and (ii) BB is telling me that my gmail passsword is incorrect when I KNOW it's correct. I've rebooted my BB and even re-changed my gmail password to simplify it (just in case I was typing it wrong on my BB), but nothing works.

This morning I changed my gmail password from my laptop. This evening I was not able to sign into gmail from my phone, even though I typed in the new password. I tried clearing the cache, data, restore to factory, etc.
