Default Google Mail Username Recovery.

Anyone know how to recover your google mail address?

Basically when you register the phone i have you have to sign up to google mail.. so i did when i got it and havent used it since, i know my password but not my user name.

The otherday when i was busy my mate kept trying to guess my pin, so he locked the phone, and to get into it i have to enter my google mail address and my password.

So i cant remember it, i went on the website and when i tried the username recovery, it says enter your back up email.. and when i got my phone i must have entered it wrong as it said it has no google mail accounts linked to it.

So that didn't work, theres also no contact number..

Anyone have any idea how i can sort this?

I was going to ring up vodaphone but the line is closed until tomorrow and i need my phone quite badly... so if anyone has any idea as to how i could recover my email feel free to tell me..

Thanks.

Have you tried answering the personal security question. I use google mail without a back up email. I just use my security question instead.

I have never had this problem before possibly because I use Recylopse on neally everything I have.

''If you didn't enter an alternate email address when you created your Gmail address, but you were invited to Gmail, you may be able to retrieve your username by clicking the link in your Gmail invitation.''

From the help page.
