  • I have given my Package inside,and to the app is crashing.I have added the required permissions also in the manifest.com.notify is my package name.Do I need to add anything else to it. `Account account = new Account("frewer.rtg@gmail.com", "com.notify"); String password = "qwegtgr234"; AccountManager accountManager = AccountManager.get(context); accountManager.addAccountExplicitly(account, password, null);` – Karthik Nov 15 '11 at 09:00
  • Please add code through the [edit] button, not in comments. Code in comments is nearly unreadable. – sarnold Jan 21 '12 at 02:05

    Thanks for response! I used that code with new account("my id@gmail.com", "my package name here which is 'com.example.addaccount' ") and I added authenticator.xml file in a folder named xml, with same package name android:accountType="com.example.addaccount". But I am getting error "caller uid 10043 is different than the authenticator's uid". Can you please tell me, what am I missing? I just added the xml file and wrote that code to add account, do I need to refer to that xml some how? – blackfyre Sep 12 '12 at 06:29
