I have a brand new Nexus 10. It worked for a few minutes of web browsing and then I am not sure what I did but somehow it got to the point where I was asked to sign into a Google Account. Since I use gmail
, the required answer to the question: do you use Google Accounts?
is yes. So I touched 'yes'.
I put in my gmail address and password. Now it shows Couldn't sign in, Can't establish a reliable connection to the server.
There is the suggestion that it is a temporary problem but retries have failed over several days.
I then wiped all user data using instructions I found on the internet. However, it still ends up stuck on the screen that shows Couldn't sign in, Can't establish a reliable connection to the server.
I even logged out of gmail
on my laptop, but it doesn't help the situation on the Nexus 10. The Nexus 10 is a brick so now I am shopping for a few hundred thousand of these and some mortar.
Additional info: I use 2-step verification on the laptop for my gmail
.
