This might be a little bit silly but I forgot my master password. Even I also forgot when I set the master password.
Every time I want to generate signed APK the Android Studio always asks for master password. What I can do to get my master password again sir?
I also read the thread on stackoverflow here but it doesn't work.
Please help me with this one. I'll appreciate your help.
You can reset password
File -> Setting -> type password in search
click on master password -> leave empty -> click ok (disable password protection)
Now again click master password ->click reset -> enter new password
You can create yourself a new password this time. Read this article to generate a signed apk with your new password.
Now , read this point super carefully, DO TICK THE BOX , that says "Remember password"
just reset master password it will work fine dont bother about that

I can not access my project in Git because I entered an erroneous password with the box marked (remember), this has caused that the login window no longer appears and therefore the user always invalidates me. I need to access from the Android Studio to clone my project is a requirement.

Control Panel -> User Accounts -> Manage your credentials (to left of screen) -> Windows credentials -> Now change your git credentials

The password you are entering is wrong. Please check it again.
I have created sync adapter for android that syncs data with my server. I works fine, but now I want to be able to change my username and password without removing and adding the account again. How can I do this?
I have a login screen that has edit texts for entering username and password, but how to apply these changes to the account?
EDIT:
Found a way how to change the password:
AccountManager.get(mContext).setPassword(account, password );
where account is my account, and password is the new password.
So now my question is: HOW TO CHANGE THE USERNAME?
I can change the password with no problem, but if I want to change the username of the account I must delete and recreate the account with the new username. This deletes all data from that account and resyncs the account again from the beginning.
AccountManager.renameAccount(Account account, String newName, AccountManagerCallback<Account> callback, Handler handler)
This has been unfortunately added only in API 21 (documentation).
In previous versions, deleting and recreating the account with the new username is the only way, as mentioned in another answer.
Use an AccountAuthenticatorActivity, which you can either open from the Settings -> Accounts & Sync page inside your account, or when you try to fetch from the server and get an error indicating wrong login. Look here for details of how to set it up. Writing an Android Sync Provider: Part 1
i have a problem when i want to run my android application, this is the error message :
Error generating final archive: java.security.UnrecoverableKeyException: Cannot recover key
how to solve this problem?
thankyou
Keystore password and key password both need to be the same. You must be getting this error if they are not same.
Either you have enter your keystore password or Alias password is wrong, that is why you got Cannot recover key Exception.enter correct password for both keystore and alias.
Sometimes if the key is invalid due to expiration,etc then this also happened
I had the same problem, and the solution was as follows:
1- When I changed the key store password,the returns was "error in the password who has tempered the key", in that case the keystore pass is incorrect.
2-If you have the following error, "cannot recover key", in that case the storepass is correct but the password for that alias is incorrect, i remembered my pass and changing, the problem is gone.
you have problem with your key.
This will give you how to info on keys
http://developer.android.com/tools/publishing/app-signing.html#debugmode
To change key in debug mode
(To do so in Eclipse/ADT, go to Windows > Preferences > Android > Build.)
This is one nightmare faced and documentation seem rather not clear on figuring your way out... I had the same issue but I understood after brainstorming.
Now in simplest term...
When you opt in for app signing, Google makes you create a key you use to sign in your app. This is like your legacy key (App signing certificate) and is the bedrock.
Now in uploading, another key is mapped to you which is a second layer ID to you, this lets you update your app.
Now whenever you loose the alias/password you contact google via your mail and they will tell you to create a new keystore that they will reset the old one(upload key) with because they have they legacy key already. Thus at any point in app lifecycle, you don't need to have your legacy key because they have housed it for you already.
When i try to open up the site http://android.googlesource.com/ to get android source code,
Google says I have to generate new password, which is strange since I can access other sites without no problem with my Google account.
Anyway, I allow sending my account to http://android.googlesource.com/ and then it says either I have to revoke my PW and regenerate PW or put machine android.googlesource.com login git-y.jaeyong.gmail.com password ***************** into my ~/.netrc
I tried both things but not working.
I have no idea what is going on.
So my question is "is there anybody who had similar problem?" or beside this problem, "is there anyone who tell me the git address to android honeycomb?"
Follow the instruction on http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html
I generated a password in https://android.googlesource.com/new-password and I overwrote ~/.netrc with:
machine android.googlesource.com login git-[your_email].gmail.com password 1/naIKPrD4.......
machine android-review.googlesource.com login git-[your_email].gmail.com password 1/naIKPrD4.....
It worked for me.
