Help! Changed gmail password and now phone doesn't recognize [Solved]
I changed my gmail password and now my phone and tablets can't sync or use the play store. Google won't let me reuse a previous password so I can't change it back. Does anyone know how to reset phone or tablet password?

The play store on my main tablet only had a try again button and never asked me for a new password so that didn't do any good. Somewhere, I don't remember where, a different try again screen came up that also had a cancel button and that one let me enter my new password.

I would have thought it would be easier.

Have you tried signing out of all Google Services then signing in again with the new password on each device?

Go into the Market - this will bring up a prompt that says your password has changed. When you change it on the market, it will change it for gmail as well...

Sorry, I guess it wasn't clear that I fixed my problem. I'm not completely sure how I got the prompt that fixed it, but it wasn't from the play store or from the sync screen like it was supposed to be. I don't use the gmail app so it wasn't there either. Maybe it was after I hit try again enough times.

Thanks for the replies anyway!
