Need help recovering my gmail/gv password  - gmail no help, but the obihai device is using the latest credentials. Let's get those in clear text shall we?

:( Not possible.  It is not stored in your OBi device or on Obitalk server.

YOU didn't keep track of the password, not gmail.  If it was stored on the device, and easy to decrypt, it wouldn't be very strong security, would it?

Here is the starting point for Google's password recovery procedure:

Here is a detailed discussion of how to use the procedure to recover your account access:
