Hey guys,
   I found another way to make it work if you're still using the one
with the bug. First you need to change the way you connect to google.
No more email but sms!
you have to go to google website in your account
https://myaccount.google.com/signino...ign-in/welcome

(connexion and security => connect to google)

Your android phone have to use this account. (google will send sms to
this phone.) Then when you've finish this procedure , every time you'll
connect something like a computer to google, you'll recieve a sms.
so now, in gnome online : add a google account, enter the mail adress
then you will recieve a sms to confirm the conection ,and gnome don't
need a password, it will connect.
Once gnome is connected, if you want, you can change the preference in
your google account to use password instead of sms

That works like a charm
