You need to be a bit more detailed than that. What rom are you using? When did you initially notice the problem? Is there a built-in adblocker associated with the tom you're using? If so, it is very possible that the host file is outdated. To remedy it, you need to download and install the adfree app from the market. Start the app and select either revert (ads) or update host file (no ads) and then reboot your device. This *is* the fix for many internet related problems with several custom roms. This *may* fix your issue.

[Q] Market not downloading via 3G [Working]

Was working fine until yesterday and suddenly I'm no longer able to download any application via 3G, but WiFi works fine.
Clearing the caches, uninstalling the market update and rebooting the phone server times didn't help.
Anything I can do to get it back on track?
can you internet with 3g ?

Yes. With out any problem. Only thing us that it starts as if it's going to download, them stops. I can download anything else from websites.

do you have an antivirus installed ?
as one of the ones i had wouldnt allow me to download from the market but when i uninstalled it was fine again
Nope. I don't have any Antivirus installed (never installed before also).
It's very strange, yesterday I went on to repair the firmware and still I can't download anything from market via 3G, but WiFi still works without any problem. Now this is starting to annoy me
I deleted the APN settings and re-downloaded them via the Sony Ericsson Menu and bingo, started to work!
Hopefully it stays like this.
Thanks for everyone who tried to help.

I had the exact same issue after applying the new ROM from overcome. Deleted the APN settings and re-created. All is downloading great. Would not have figured it out if not for this post.

Cannot connect to Play after upgrade

Hi so I have a HTC Desire A8181and finally decided it was time to play about with some of the new firmwares that are out there to give my phone a new lease of life. Firstly I tried an update to 4.0.4 and ran into this problem.
Everything else works fine but I just cannot log into my google account to connect to Play and sync my contacts etc. I get the could not establish a reliable connection to the server error. I can browse the internet fine and have a solid 3G connection. I read through some other forums about changing the host file but this made no difference for me. Also tried turning off the auto date/time but this didn't make any difference also.
After many hours I gave up and assumed it must be something in that ROM. I installed a 4.1.1 ROM and ran into the same issue again!
When I restore back to my original 2.3.3 it works straight away. Checked the host file and it has nothing in there other than the local host.
I am now left on 2.3.3 as I can't get passed this hurdle and hit it with two completley different ROM's
The phone is rooted and has the custom recovery.
Any help would be very much appriciated so I can finally leave 2.3.3!

Thanks for your reply. I tried as you said but still no luck! The web browser works fine just seems to be the apps that can't connect.
Sorted it at last! Turns out once updated to the new firmwares was defaulting to a different APN setting.

So you just changed the APN settings back to the original (2.3.3) and it worked?

[Q] CWM Recovery Not Working

I am trying to root my AT&T S3 i747 OS-4.3. I followed the instructions to flash CWM Recovery from this website http://www.theandroidsoul.com/lates...tt-galaxy-s3-sgh-i747-android-4-4-compatible/ but it doesn't seem to work. In Odin3 it says that it passed but when i try to boot up CWM recovery it still boots up android recovery. Any suggestions or another route to root my phone that doesn't require a wipe? My end goal is to install a tether app that works on phone. I currently have FoxFi but the update to 4.3 broke the wifi mode.

Once you are on 4.3, the common methods of rooting don't always work. You may, however, try method #2 posted in the thread below. I have found that to always work. Using this option will not wipe your data but you are advised to back up frequently. Also before rooting your phone, I would suggest you check to be sure that is really necessary. Most apps, including non Play Store apps, can be installed simply by going to your phone settings and enabling installing of apps from other sources. Root would be required primarily for apps or installations that make changes to your phone's OS.

No, that's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying is that a Wi-Fi tether app (or any other app for that matter) may still work on an unrooted phone as long as it doesn't need to make changes to your phone's operating system. Wi-Fi tethering from Open Garden inc, for instance, is available as an app from the play store and this can be installed on an unrooted phone.

Ok i understand now. Do you happen to know if Wi-Fi tethering from Open Garden inc works on the i747 on Android 4.3?
I was able to root my phone but i am unable to find a WiFi tether app that works on i747 OS 4.3 root. Any suggestions?

Problems with pdanet app

I have a problem with the pdanet app when installing the version in android 8.1, I happen to see a warning that says: your device is not compatible with wps, and does not share wifi signal from that app, which does not happen with android 7, someone do you have any solution?
PS: sorry for my english..
Same problem here. I have a Moto G5s, and wifi sharing doesnt work when I updated to Android Oreo.

I used to use the following app - it requires root & a bit of knowledge to set it up - read their instructions
It may work for you - I no longer have this device so I can't give you the config for it but try goggling & seeing if a config is already on their site
I used it to bypass the mobile network tether throttle so they couldn't detect you are tethering & reduce your speed
It is a paid app though but Google is your friend

Thanks, but my phone doesnt have root permission

Without root you are basically using the phones native wifi hotspot
Can you not activate wifi hotspot via the wifi settings in your phones settings menu?
Technically all apps that don't use root are just using their app & interface to turn on wifi hotspot which you should be able to yourself via wifi settings

I hope I can help you
the only way I can make it work is to be connected to a Wi-Fi network regardless of whether there is a network or not and then we enter the hotspot in the PDANET app and then you disconnect from the network without turning off the wifi and keep sharing the signal .
it's the only way I can make it work
