[Q] GTalk/Market download problems - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So heres my delima. I recently rooted and installed cyanogen rom (htc desire cdma). I then noticed that my market wouldnt download sometimes, it would just sit there. I did some research and found out that the market uses GTalk and if gtalk isnt signed in, the market wont download.
I played with gtalk and noticed that it wont connect to the servers whenever I am using cellular data. It works fine with wifi. I know the cellular data is working because I can surf the internet.
I talked to a buddy with a htc hero and found his does the exact same thing with the same setup. Which led me to think it was the ROM.
So, i went into recover and wiped the phone and then reinstalled the stock (rooted) rom. Gtalk still wouldnt work over cellular. I "think" that by wiping the phone, everything would be removed from cyanogen, so that crosses that off the list of reasons (can anyone confirm this)? The only thing left would be that the phone is rooted with unrevoked and has s-off. However its currently not possible to turn s-on to see if that fixes the issue.
Anyone have any tips to try.
Is there anyone running a cdma rooted s-off desire that can use gtalk while using cellular data?

Wireless Tether

Please help! All suggestions are welcome.
After flashing OMJ's 2.2 ROM on the first day of its release (knowing that wireless tether would not work), something has been preventing wireless tether from working in all ROMS.
I have tried everything I know (which is not much)... different combos of radios and wimaxes, several different ROMs (based off both 1.3x and 1.4x), different kernels... nothing can get it working.
I am guessing that there may be data somewhere that did not get wiped through recovery or through doing my nand restore.
Thanks!
There are a couple different updates for the Wireless Tether app floating around. Versions 2.0.5 pre 4, pre 5, and pre 6. I've had success with all of them varying by rom. Can't post the links right now, but some of the rom threads have them posted in the OP. You'll probably have to try each one til you find the one that works. One of them should.
[EDIT] I think there's a pre 7 also.

wireless hotspot for 3g works fine on cm6. it's a 2.2 aosp rom. no sense. don't ask about including sense. won't happen. 4g currently doesn't work, and i'm not sure that a 4g hotspot will, because sprint's implementing a MAC confirmation with 4g hotspot (they really wanna charge you 30 bucks a month for it).
but, 3g hotspot works fine on cm6 2.2. that's my point. that's all there is, don't ask for more.
other roms have 4g functioning, so i'd assume 4g hotspot works on those, if you pay for it.

I know pre7 works on my ROM and most other Froyo ROMs.
Pre7 only works on the HTC stock kernels iirc. If you're using an oc kernel please try the other versions listed of it doesn't work for you

yea the pre 7 works, you can jus google it like i did
sorry that I did not make this clearer in the original post but I have indeed tried all of the different wireless apps (including pre 7) with a variety of ROMs and nothing is working.
The problem I am focusing on is that I originally had wireless tether working on fresh 1.01 (based off 1.47), I created a nand backup, flashed OMJ's 2.2 ROM, then when I restored back to the Fresh ROM my wireless tether was kaput.
None of the combinations of different version of the app, ROM, kernel, radio, and wimax (and I have probably tried 50+ unique combinations over the past week) have provided any working results.
I even went through the entire ROOT process again, and still nothing is working.
EDIT: What I'm trying to emphasize here is that once I flashed a 2.2 ROM wireless tether stopped working on ALL ROMs... even the 1.3x and 1.4x based ROMs
I have the same problem... the program starts just fine but the download data amount gets stuck at . 4 and my laptop can't find the connection at all. Had OJ Rom and now running latest version of fresh... please help!

Well I installed the pre-8 version of wireless tether and it worked one night and then I had the same problem... I'm using easy tether now until I can get this thing working again. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Two weeks later and I still have not solved this... any help?
Wireless Tether is working fine for me.Fresh 3.0.1 w/Netarchy Kernel 4.0.3 and pre-8 tether .apk
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I understand that for nearly everybody wireless tether IS working. However, given the ludicrous number of combinations I have tried, including everybody's latest and greatest app/ROM/kernel it is safe to say that my problem does not lie in the use of something out of date.
I need NEW suggestions from someone way more experienced than myself.
pretty weird - mine has worked on every rom I've tried.
have you tried CM6?
Also where exactly are you getting stuck?
im having the same problem tried pre 8 now 7 both say activating wifi interface failed, starting access point -failed,
Tether working fine, except I can't watch espn videos for some reason.

try this maybe
Had the issue after running ava v3.
Wipe everything, data cash, dalvik. Dont flash your previous radios or wimaxs, they arent for froyo. Once everything is wiped flash your new rom. Evio 1.1 works great. When you open wifi tether, it should ask you for user permission, if it doesnt somethig is wrong with your su app.
We need more details about your issue. Otherwise all anyone can suggest is wipe everything and flash another rom and try runnig the app. Or like someone else suggested uninstall and reinstall verious versions. But the first time you run wifi tether super user should pop up, if it doesnt this is what is preventing u from running wifi tether.
I'm sorry I did not specify exactly what was happening, but I thought that since this was a well known error for the early adopters of 2.2 people would be familiar with the nature of my problem.
When I put ANY rom on my evo (regardless of whether it's 2.1 based or 2.2) my wireless tether program does not send data. The app itself works fine (gets SU request), creates a network, it just doesn't transmit data because of the authentication Sprint worked into froyo.
My UNIQUE problem, is that this problem persists even when not using those early 2.2 roms. I have tried HUNDREDS of variations of radios/wimax/app editions/ROMs/kernels (including the latest releases) and it does not matter what I do, when I start up wireless tether it stops at .4kb and will not transmit the connection to my computer.
I have gone beyond wiping all of my data (through amon recovery), I even went back tot he 1.3x RUU and went through the whole root process AGAIN and still the problem persists.
There is something on this phone that the data wipes are not removing that is blocking this function, and I do not know how to revert it back. PLEASE HELP.
ive got mine working but its alot slower then even dialup..tried 7 and 8 and same results with both.. Tried on the AC rom and a stock rooted here (using a stock rooted off this forum which the op says works fine for him ...

Telstra Desire 2.2 - can't access Data Usage.

Hi,
today I rooted my Desire using unrevoked3 and installed the official "HTC Froyo ROM" by nickiberli
Everything seems to work fine. Camera works. WiFi works. HSDPA works. Flash is great.
But I can't seem to access my data usage from Telstra. Until I can, I'm not sure whether my access to 'm.bigpond.com' is unmetered or not. I only have 200MB a month, so this is a major problem.
Would I need to flash to the T-Mod to fix it?
Thanks.
Try telastra mod. You should be able to use foxtel too.

Trying as I type this. My phone continuously keeps rebooting. Am I doing something wrong?

[Q] Did anyone lose data?

I rooted my buddies Wildfire S on Metro last night. I followed the list to the T, got it rooted, CWM installed, backed up the stock rom, and installed a new rom, but the ROM didn't have the market or 1x data, so I reverted to the backup.
The backup doesn't have any data now. No 3g, no 1x, I click on mobile networks, it says it's turning on, but stays greyed out and never fully turns on.
Has this happened to anyone else?
Anyone have any advice?
I figure I can try to factory restore it and see if that works, I was just trying to see if anyone had any advice.
Yes same problem I am having, exactly the same. I think they might of changed something in that phone.
Try contacting insink71 as he is the cdma specialist for the Wildfire S.

[Q] M8 (Sprint) Update Issues

Hi All,
I got an update today for 3.31.651.32.
The problem is that now none of my data works. It will show the LTE icon on the top but will not establish any kind of data connection. I've switched to 3G, same results. When connecting to wifi, I am able to connect to networks, but I receive an error that the internet connection is unstable and I am not able to use it. Phone calls and text messages work just fine.
I've contacted Sprint, they recommend replacing the phone. I've contacted HTC and they recommend contacting Sprint.
Has anyone else had this issue? We've tried all the standard troubleshooting, (resetting, factory restore, etc).
Can you give more details like is your phone rooted or S-OFF etc.

It was previously rooted. Though I have reverted it back to stock. It is currently S-ON. No custom software of any kind on it.
try a factory reset or flash the lastest ruu for your phone and see if that may help correct the problem
