unfortunately you'll only get 1 of 2 responses... i doubt you're ever actually contacted by anybody

either 1, you didn't provide enough info (if you've already had that happen, that's a bad sign unfortunately, unless you can provide more info, both in quantity and accuracy, the second time around), or 2 it sends you a link that's generated that allows you to reset your password

edit: but I've never NOT received a response (either negative or positive) within a day or so... and yes i've done this a few different times with a few different gmail accounts over the years...

If Google doesn't respond back to the form, consider signing up for their paid service. I believe there is a trial available. From there, you can contact their Customer Service for paid users and get your account unlocked. Once you get it unlocked, you can cancel the paid service.

Quick question: What happens when you try to login to Google from your computer?

I read this whole thread, and this is definitely a learning experience. I will be taking a closer look at my Gmail acct now. And I'm glad everything worked out for the op.

cool, maybe next time you will learn to be a little more patient.

I believe 13 days is pretty dang patient. 2 weeks without email and half your apps is a long time.

hmmm I missed that. I thought it happend just this morning. You deserve a patience award or something. Someone would have died if I had to wait 13 days.
Yes, it sucked majorly. I was getting pissed off enough to pay the fee and go to att and get a iphone. :icon_evil: and I love my droid!

Do a factory reset but first open new account and login with that.
