Will Android support "Google apps for your domain"?

[boogg1]

Hmmm... Euphline above said it worked for him.

I have it on good authority that this will work soon / should work now for most people. Two points:

1) Be sure to have calendar enabled on your domain. (Go to "Manage domain" and enable it.)

2) For a small number of domains it doesn't work even if calendar is enabled. That's a bug in the registration server and it should be fixed by tomorrow (Wednesday).

And a bonus remark:

(3) You can use only one Google account, so you can't switch between your domain and a regular gmail account.

Disclaimer: I don't work for Android but I'm pretty certain the info above is more correct than what T-Mobile told you.

Mine now works. Tried again after stanforder post, thanks

Here's some useful info from the http://groups.google.com/group/hosted-the-basics group

Out of the box, it worked. I put in my n...@mydomain.com and password
and the G1 picked up my personal domain settings just fine. But I
guess in the less than 24hours I had this little bugger, I got a
little too app-happy and so I got the utterly annoying
"android.process.acore" error which according to t-mo help, required a
hard reset to clear up. After the hard reset, I got the missing
application: cl error and I spent the greater part of this evening
troubleshooting this message.
Im certain it has to do with enable service settings in the dashboard.
Here's what I did to get it working. Since the error mentions
contacting the domain administrator for my domain (me), I had a hunch
this had something to do with my domain settings. I went into
Dashboard and began enabling and disabling services. After disabling
chat and trying to log in on the phone, I got the error "This account
cannot be used on the phone because it is missing the following
applications: chat, cl."

This gave me the hint that the error was directly related to my
domain's service settings. I disabled all services, including mail and
tried once more, getting the error: "This account cannot be used on
the phone because it is missing the following applications: chat, cl,
mail."

After re-enabling all three chat, mail, and calendar I still got the
error again but only referring to the application "cl". I then went in
to "Change URLs for multiple services" at:
https://www.google.com/a/cpanel/mycu....org/CustomUrl
I changed all the domain names to the default and after that was able
to log in successfully.

In conclusion, I believe that to initialize the G1, the essential
services are mail, chat, and calendar; and the G1 is using some simple
method of determining the URLs for those services. Im not sure why the
above last step worked being as how the default URLs are always active
regardless of custom settings, but I guess this is just another one of
those early adopter bugs. Funny, before I got this one resolved, I
contacted T-mo again and got a return authorized for this as a
malfunctioning phone. Perhaps everyone's learning the rules as we go
along.

I just reset the phone, tried again, and it worked great! I'm officially happy as hell with my G1!

I signed in using my regular gmail account. Now I hear I can maybe use the Apps account. Does anyone know a way I can "sign out" from the phone and re-log in with the different info?

[wildstar]

For those of you that had success, how did you set up the phone in the first place? Right now I'm at the very first setup screen and you enter you Google account and it won't let me type in the @ sign for my login.

I.e. I'm trying to enter:
username@mydomain.com
And get an error that @ characters are not supported.


So how do I enter my info?

[wildstar]

I got it to work and the steps are as above but DO NOT use the enter key to move to the next field in the form to enter your password. It runs some kind of validation check on the account name and rejects the @ symbol.

Make sure to simply touch the screen and select the password box and it will not run the check on the account name.

[FactoryD]

^ yup! That's correct.

If you've already setup the phone using a normal gmail account and you want to use your google apps account, you'll need to start from scratch. That means every customization you've done so far, will be lost.

1. Go into settings
2. Go into SD car & phone storage
3. Touch Factory data reset
4. Confirm
5. Reboot
6. Use your google apps login
7. Don't press enter. Simply click into the password field
8. Enter your password

Hope that helps

Works well with my google apps domain. I'm loving it!
