Maybe it's a problem with Google's 2-step Verification?
Could Google be trying to send a verification code to your phone?

Set up a new google account on the Nexus, it's the easiest option and I think yuo can link the accounts afterwards.

I have never had any problems using my gmail account on any of my android devices, it is easy to mistype a character though on the smaller keypads especially if you have big fingers so are you 100% sure you typed it correctly?
