Same problem here. It says my email address or password is wrong. After few trials with the same address and password it randomly passes and tries to sync, but error message appears and then back to login page.

Hi. 

It seems that Hotmail.com (Microsoft) have had some problems with the email setup settings since the name changed to Outlook.com. You can try to remove the email account from the phone and add it with this manual settings:

Otherwise I recommend that you download Microsoft's own Outlook and Hotmail application Outlook.com to handle your emails:
