download issues

stamina_josh · 06-11-2010, 09:34 AM

Hi, when using gmail recently I was asked if I wanted to move my email address from "@googlemail.com" to "@gmail.com". I selected "Yes". Since doing so I am finding that I can't download any apps from the android market on my nexus one. The phone is also telling me that to remove the relationship with my phone and the @googlemail.com email address, I will need to restore to the factory settings.

Has anyone else had this issue ? cheers

I'm not sure about your specific issue, but it is true the only way to change the account your phone is tied to is to reset your phone.

Yes, the apps you download are tied to this account to prevent theft and pirating.
