Hi have seena couple of posts but with no solution.
My problem is whenever i go to check my googlemail through my home wifi on my diamond all it does it pop up with the incoming email password screen and thats all.
when this was set up originally there was no problems and have done no upgrades or flashing since this.
i have installed diamond tweaks and advanved config manager but cant see anything within these that would stop me .
Have logged in to google mail on desktop pc and changed my password to elimate password name problems but still no joy.
ANY IDEA GUYS??? im stumped.
p.s obviousli i have delted acount on numeros occasions and rsoft reset then rre added account and used auto detection account setup and done it the manual way.
am on swiftys 5.6rom

It has been treated a few times in those forums
It's a WM bug
Only work around :
Delete the gmail account on your diamond and create a new one with a DIFFERENT name (gmail01, gmail02...)
I had the same problem and this is the only way i could solved it...

Thanks guys but i just sorted it.
IF anyone has this problem then this is what you must do . Login to your google mail from a desktop or laptop and enter your settings.
click configure outlook (even though your not using outlook ) then there a common issues tab near the top of the screen.
The first one in the list is "Repeatedly prompted for your username and password or 'invalid credentials' error."
To sort this you must hit the " Clear the captcha "tab .
Then connect via you phone wirelessly abd do the same .
(personally i didnt ave to do it on my phone as it cleared the problem straight away) but it does say to do this on the device your having trouble logging in on .
Definitely sorted it as i have done nothing else that could take credit for it working and it hasnt been working for ages .
cheers hope this helps

I'm in my settings in Gmail, and I'm in the common issues, but I can't seem to find the "Repeatedly prompted for your username and password or 'invalid credentials' error."

Do it from your pc . log into gmail and up top right hit settings. then click pop /imap forwarding then under each section there is an underlined configure client or configure outlook tab. if your in the section where you switch on pop and imap your in the right place.

Thanks for the info, I found the configure outlook, but I can't find the problem in the "common issues"
What do you mean by "Clear the captcha" tab? do you mean cache?

when you have clicked configure instructions and the next screen comes up click outlook express.another screen comes up and fourth tab along it says common errors. click that then click first in the list which is
Repeatedly prompted for your username and password or 'invalid credentials' error.
A little drop down appears with a tab to clear captcha. click that let it do its thing . should do the trick for ya

Thanks again coopigeon! I really found it now :)
Unfortunately, clearing the captcha didn't work for me... :(
I guess I'll have to find another way. But thanks for helping me out!

hang on a sec , did you do it from your phone also? .connect worelessly use your phone browser and do the same. plus when you have done that ,reset the email account on your phone.

Hello sonnybravo
After reading this thread I thought I'd sign in to my gmail account (I don't use it much, but thought it would be a useful backup to my pop when I'm out and about). Anyway, I get the same issue as you; the blank white screen with 'Google' in the top left hand corner.
Not exactly an emergency for me, but if you do get to the bottom of it, I'd appreciate a shout.
