Had a huge issue with this but solved it just thought to post it here in case any people have an issue with it in the future.

Open Gmail's settings in your desktop browser, under label's and check off "show in IMAP" for "All Mail".
Open Account Settings, under Account overview, look for Security - Authorizing applications & site, click Edit. You will be ask for your Gmail account password.
Now, you're in Application-specific passwords page. Create a name/label for your new application-specific (ie Email BB). Click Generate password. Use the generated password for your email account on your Blackberry.

Not only for Blackberry. any other device you would like to add.

quite a good security measure, I guess.

Struggled a lot, but have managed to get it right for many customers.

What is annoying is every time I flash a new ROM I have to do the whole thing over for that device since the device specific code is never again revealed.

Had to do it a couple of times last week since I was testing out a few ROMS and each time I had to generate a new code.
