问题

I'm trying to retrieve the password of google account, but getting security exception at String pwd = AccountManager.get(mContext).getPassword(account). Also i have given permissions in androidManifest.xml to account_manager, aunthenticator, get_account, manage account.

code :

android.accounts.Account[] gaccounts = AccountManager.get(mContext).getAccounts();
Log.i("parul", "2222()len :"+ gaccounts.length);
for (android.accounts.Account account: gaccounts) {
   String pwd = AccountManager.get(mContext).getPassword(account);
   Log.i("parul", "google pwd: " + pwd);
   AccountManager.get(mContext).setPassword(account, null);
   String pwdcleared = AccountManager.get(mContext).getPassword(account);
   Log.i("parul", "google pwdcleared: " + pwdcleared);
}

回答1:

As far as I read this post, the error is because of mismatch configuration. You need to dedug in details

回答2:

I don't think (it is only a guess) you can retrieve Google account password. BTW, if you need Google account password to validate user at your service, I suggest another way to do this. Get user's token and pass it to server over secured channel.

See details in my answer here: User authentication at your service by using AccountManager token
