Similar problem.

i have a gmail account I haven’t accessed in many months.

In that time I’ve updated my hardware.

Now google says “we don’t recognize this device” and won’t let me log in.

I have a backup email configured and gmail actually sends a note to that backup email saying someone has my password for the other account. But won’t let me use that backup email to verify the login on the old email address.

Wtf.
