I'm not sure what I did to upset things, but I have a strange problem with loging onto android market app and gmail app on phone. It asks me for password, which it keeps saying I entered wrong password, re enter. I can log on to my gmail mail account using the web browser on phone. The strange part is I can log onto android app store on computer and my gmail account. (no hair left to pull out)
Perhaps you have enabled 2-step authentication on your gmail/google account? This would require you to set up application specific passwords for things like android/iOS devices.
So, if you have enabled 2-step authentication, and you are trying to use your standard gmail password on the gmail/market app, it won't accept it.
dukester: Yes, 2-step authentication was enabled. Now disabled and all is working. A big thankyou.
For the sake of security, I would be inclined to keep 2-step authentication on, and just create application specific passwords for your mobile devices etc.
You can create these application specific passwords via your main google account page.
