Welcome to the Android Forums!

Theoretically you could go to Gmail via the web interface and try to reset the password. That said, some have reported that after resetting their Gmail password, they were still unable to log into their phone. My guess is that the new password needs time to sync between Gmail and the phone.

If this doesn't work then you may not like what you have to do next...
