I got the game last night,
Was prompted to make a Origin ID ingame, Chose "leonWHAT" to match my gamertag "This user ID already exists" Ok. I chose "leonWHAT88" bam... accept yes ok... can play the game.
When I decided to download the BF 4 app, I was asked to log-in using an email address? This is the issues I have. I didnt input an email address at any point?!
Now my gamertag is linked to a Origin ID with no email address. And it is required to have one to log in on smartglass app .. *sigh*
Any solutions?

I suppose if a nice mod could tell me what leonWHAT88 is linked to, or if they could link it to an email address would be problem solved?

I created the account I am using right now in order to type this message.
My xbox live account has the origin ID as "leonWHAT88" ... I provided no email address OR password along with this therefore I cant login to anything. I dont think the solution above resolves this
