Same issue here, using CM 6.0.0 RC1 on the Dream, not that I am sure that this 
makes any difference to the way that the thing attempts authentication.  All 
other Google apps work on the device, including the Market, Maps/Navigation, 
GMail, and so forth, so it's not a problem with the credentials on my account.

Setup instructsions specifically mention Google Apps are not supported:

True, but that doesn't make this issue invalid. It should support GApps 
accounts 'cause they are Google Accounts.

That's understood, roger@gomadrid.com, but that doesn't make it any less of a 
defect.  Support for GAFYD is something that many applications have support 
for, and it's not technically difficult to do—and for that matter, it makes 
this whole thing useless for those of us that exclusively use GAFYD for one 
reason or another.

I can understand why it wouldn't generally work for any sort of system, but 
GAFYD is still run by Google, and should still work.

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
I also agree, surely GAFYD should be compatible across the Google products. 
This issue however is still evident when trying to purchase apps from the 
Market, you simply can't do it because it doesn't recognise the GAFYD email!!

I've improved the error message to state clearly that Google Apps accounts are 
not supported. They will be in the future (when core infrastructure supports 
them) but don't have a specific time.

great, this app is useless to me without being able to support gapp accounts 
since when i log into google voice on my computer it logs me out of my 
chrometophone gmail account

Google Voice works if you create a regular google account with the same 
user@domain as your GAFYD account user@domain.  I'm assuming this must use some 
other means of authentication/communication.  Google Voice lets you put in a 
user/pass rather than using sync accounts.  Possible solution?  Dunno.

@KevinOKWong, are you sure? I've tried again and it definitely does NOT work.

I've just tested again, it worked.

One week before, I couldn't even able to connect to Chrometophone server from 
my Nexus One when I was using a Google apps account, then I registered a Gmail 
account and tried again, it successfully connected.  Today, I disconnected 
Chrometophone server from my Nexus One, and signed in/connected using the 
original Google apps account again at both my PC and Nexus one, it worked.

Strange!

I have 4 google apps account on my phone.. it only worked with one. my 
"GoogleAccount@<mydomain.com>" account... worked on both ends and tested ok. I 
have a @gmail.com account I set up just for these functions and this version 
force closes every time it tries to access that account. That is the same 
account I used on earlier versions... Just for kicks I thought I'd try my other 
accounts and B-I-N-G-O the one apps account worked (other 3 did not) WTF?

It would be nice to try to understand what type of accounts does work. Like 
type of account (free/enterprise/education) and extra apps associated with the 
domain.

I have 2 accounts and none work (Free/nothing extra)

If it ends in @gmail.com .. it should work... if it ends in anything else... it

Google Apps accounts are NOT supported. This is stated clearly in the installer.
It is a known issue however it is out of the control of this project at the 
moment to resolve.
Only Gmail accounts work with Chrome To Phone

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
OK, for you dense people who "KNOW" google apps accounts don't work. SOME OF 
THEM DO!

NOT SUPPORTED and NOT WORKING are also two different things. 

"Only Gmail accounts work with Chrome to Phone" is a FALSE statement.

My account that works is in the same domain as other accounts that don't. My 
google apps account for that domain is relatively new, after they stopped 
allowing the old start page. It is a free account. My primary email address at 
that domain does not work, but the account I set up to buy my nexus one 
"GoogleAccount@<mydomain>.com" does work. It has that capitalization, and is a 
.com.

Interesting detail about the account that works. It is not an actual email 
alias. it is forwarded to another email account through the * function. I only 
use it to log into google services.

It just clicked why my Google Apps account works. Because it is also a 
considered a Google Account.

BINGO. That explains my account. i had to set that account up because trying to 
use one of my primary emails would have resulted in a loss of services by 
converting it to a "google account".

This is correct - some google apps domains do work. The correct statement is 
"Only Gmail accounts are officially supported by chrometophone". 

As you can see in the code, the chrome extension and the android app are using 
the account to login to the app engine application. App engine doesn't support 
google apps accounts (except those converted to the new system for testing). 

Maybe we can make a code change and allow registration without account/password 
- for example the appengine side could generate a random token which could be 
displayed on the android app ( like the hash of the registration token), and 
than entered on the chrome extension. There is some potential for abuse ( DOS, 
etc ), but it could work until all google apps accounts are converted. 

Opinions ?

I'm marking this as fixed - it requires domains to transition to the new system.

Please re-open the bug if your domain migrated and it still doesn't work.

After one day of the account being a "Google Account", i still can't setup 
chrome2phone on the phone. Maybe some caching problems? Really don't know, but 
something's wrong here.

Details please, hard to debug something with "something is wrong here". 

Please note that if you want to use picassa, google voice etc after migrating 
your account to the new "Google Account" (from "Hosted Account") - you will 
need to remove the hosted account and add it back again, currently the phone 
won't detect the change. C2P doesn't have this problem - since it's asking for 
HOSTED_OR_GOOGLE when listing accounts.

All I can say is something is wrong, I don't have any other infor to tell you. 
(I'm a dev myself and I know this hurts :P )
The app doesn't produce any log in logcat (only Google Apps accounts not 
supported is shown on the aplication).
All I can say to you is that picasa sync was automaticaly enabled after a 
reboot, so the phone already knows it is a google account. it's just c2p that 
doesn't detect it as such. If I can help in any other way just tell me how that 
i'm glad to help.
