Want to delete gmail account, but can not sign in , need authentication

Authentication error is usually caused by one of two things; incorrect email password or an unrecognized IP address. I suggest connecting the phone to a secured wifi hotspot (such as your wifi at home if you have it) and attempting to authenticate there. Make sure you're inputting the password correctly as well. Otherwise you might try the troubleshooter I've linked below. Troubleshoot Your Cell Phone Smartphone Tablet or MicroCell from AT
