Email Password Change Problem

Re: Galaxy S10 (there was no Board for this)

I made the stupid mistake of changing my Email Password and the Samsung Email Client doesn't accept it and the App keeps giving me the same "Sign in again" horsedung.

I've read multiple solutions, I've followed the instructions for multiple solutions, I've cleared the Cache/History, and I've restarted everything.

Why can't Samsung fix this, and why have they made this so hard?

ANY help would be more than appreciated!

Thank you in advance.

@connman: Please try removing the account from your Galaxy S10, and re-adding it to see if this helps. The steps below are for Android 13, however these may vary depending on your current Android version.

Settings > Accounts and backup > Manage accounts > Email > Remove account > Manage accounts > Add account > Email > Fill in the required fields.

Connman,

I too had the same issue; Samsung Galaxy 9+ and figured out a better and way easier solution.

When updating my password.... I sadly followed the idea below and removed the account; then had the same issue to add it back.
Solution:  When I was at the Add Account page, we automatically think to enter our email... then try to click on the Password line... which is where the problem is/was, as it would take you away from the page; NOT allowing you to enter your password.
Well, by accident, I figured out the how & why....  Either enter a bogus email -- something WITHOUT .com or .net where the field knows it's wrong. Then you can go down a line to enter your new password; Then go back up and edit your email to be correct!
Worked for me, and with the Sync settings on, it took a few minutes, but basically rebuilt my email fairly complete.
