    Reading about that big leak I was thinking on changing my gmail password. Doing that on the PC is easy, but I've searched the Internet to find out what would happen to my Android phone. After reading a lot of articles out there I'm confused: there's opinions that go from "phone will become unusable" to "it is automatic and no problems happen". Anyone here have done it? Have you needed something special? Is the phone still working? Thank you all!

          No issues, just change your password, your phone will ask you to re-authenticate.
