Gmail app keeps asking for Microsoft account credentials - not able to login

Hi,

Since yesterday (24-01-2024) Gmail app won't sync with my Hotmail account. This email account is my default one, and syncs email, calendar and contacts.

Tried to remove account from devices, restart and add account again (manual configuration).

Server is defined as "m.hotmail.com", port "443", Security "SSL/TLS"

It as two options to proceed:

-"Next" - returns a information to check account data or change to modern authentication

-"modern authentication" - tries to sign on a google page (https://enterprise.google.co./exchangeoauth2rediret...) and returns a message "Can't add your personal email".

This happens both in a basic tablet with android 10 and in a Redmi Note 9 Pro (running stock Miui on Android 12)

What could be causing this? any help tp solve?

Thanks

    Why returning? I didn't knew it was fixed.

    I have Google Pixel 7 pro and Gmail app don't work since Microsoft has "fixed" the authentication. Google still didn't fixed Gmail App.

    What's your configuration, Peter? Are you using a Samsung phone?

    It's literally nuts that after months and months this is still going on. What a joke. As a previous poster stated you can sort of work around this by using the Samsung Email application if you are using one of their devices. It's a pain though and is just a work around and not really a fix. Looks like Apple might be the way to go, or drop MSN/Hotmail/Live and take everything over to Gmail.

    Perhaps you'll just have to use the oulook.com website for now.
