Hi guys,
One of my friends ran across an issue with her new Samsung Galaxy S and I wanted to jot it down, since it seems like she is not the only person to have come across this issue. The fix in her case was quite simple.
A quick description of the issue:
When you try to sync your Google account with your phone, after inputting your username and password, the following message appears:
Your phone has to connect with Google servers to set up your account. This may take up to five minutes.
The after a while it shows the following message:
Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server.
And the fix in this case:
Go to Menu -> Settings -> Accounts & Sync -> Background Settings (Tick this)
And then Settings -> Accounts & Sync -> Add Account -> Google -> (create your account or log in)
Hope this helps some of you.
Enjoy your Android devices :)
Hermann
