Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp!!!

I am really hoping someone can help as I am hopeless when it comes to this kind of thing.


I have a Samsung Galaxy Note and had the e-mail facility set up to my Yahoo account. Everything worked fine up until about a week ago, when for no reason at all the e-mail facility stopped working. Everytime I try to refresh the inbox it just comes up with an error message - Sign-in failed. I am not trying to sign in - I already did that, but I cannot get the damn thing to work. I have checked the settings but with no idea what I am doing, I have no idea what to do. I also had a quick look at the user guide but couldn't find anything on there either. Can anyone please help as it is really starting to annoy me!!

Also, how on earth do I change the name of my phone please?!

Many thanks

Hello Fatrabbit. You can try and clearing cache on the app.

Open settings->apps and then click on the "All" tab.

Scroll down 'till you find yahoo mail and then click "clear data" button.

Once you've done that, open up yahoo mail and sign in.

Let us know if this fixes it for you.

Hey, I had a galaxy s2 that had the same problem. All I did was go into "Manage applications" And I cleared all my data on my email app. Don't uninstall, Just clear everything.
