Hi,
I new to rooting and android and have some questions.
I think I corrupted the google framework on my phone.
I rooted my TMobile SGN2 using the*toolkit and Odin and SU on my phone. I used Option#2-Flash insecure boot image, root and install busybox" . I also installed Titanium Backup Pro and backed up all of my apps but I didnt do a full image backup using CWM or anything*similar*
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6BweCW5ck8.
I also used this method to add the wifi hotspot:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1974109
The phone worked fine for about 1 week but then*I then decided to call Tmobile support because I was having data speed issues on vacation and they told me to reset the APN and Search for Mobile Operators in the Mobile Network settings. *I forgot about the APN changes I had made and it restored the original APN to the factory settings. *
Now I have the following issues with my phone.
1) I constantly get this error and it freezes my phone for 15 seconds. "Unfortunately, the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped"
2) If I goto the gmail app it says, "gmail has stopped" and it doesnt load
3) Now I cannot*load google play store any more so cannot install apps or do updates.
4) My*AllShare Cast Wireless physical Hub tries to connect to phone but doesnt connect anymore.
I have tried emptying the google files cache and stopped and restarted all of the google services, tried rebooting phone, taking out sim card and even went back the the original APN but the problem is still there.
What should I do?
1) Call Tmobile and see if they will send me a new phone? *I do have insurance but the phone is now rooted.
2) Just do a factory restore using this method?*http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaZiO8vfrME
If I do a factory restore and the phone still has issues, will they be able to tell I rooted if I decide to use my insurance and get a new phone?
3) Try to use SU or some other way to just fix the issues I have?
PS, when I try to use my wifi hotspot now, the Tmobile Tethering wants me to active and setup their service, so Im no longer able to use my hack.
Please help me.
Thanks!

I figured it out! It turned out to be some kind of an error while updating the apps from play store. In the application manager there was a disabled update process which after turning it back on worked liked a charm (scroll all the way down to the bottom in the APP MANAGER-->ALL and it will show any disabled apps. Renable the app. I also decided to clear cache of all of the google services, gmail, app store, internet, etc. and then I deleted my google account. I rebooted the phone and added the google account back and viola... Its all back to normal.
But now that my wifi hotspot is not working, should I try this hack instead?
This application requires a "rooted"-device and (probably) a custom-kernel which supports netfilter (iptables). I only rooted my device but no custom kernel? Will it still work for me?

Done a restart ?
If it does not help: Because you are rooted, you should be able to delete the Android Market. You can get the AndroidMarket.apk from the net and reinstall it(Unknown Sources have to be checked). But before doing something fancy, you should do a BACKUP, with CWM or RZR.

Yeah several restarts. Just got an update, it appears the youtube app also gets stuck with the rotating circle...cant load the video. Cant help but assume these are related. And also I've tried this on both wifi and 3G, same.

This is strange indeed. If even the solution above doesn't help, I would recommend you to flash you ROM via ODIN. Usually it should replace the missing files, so this could work. Do a Backup as mentioned above.
BTW: But generally your internet works? (via Browser)

Yes my internet works fine. I actually cant do anything requiring a usb cable since I lost mine and wont be getting a new one till the weekend maybe. I actually tried some other things like clearing the cache partition in recovery (stock) and logging out of gTalk and relogging in which solved similar problems for people online. Just seems everything is fine...except the market cant connect and download stuff, and youtube cant connect and load videos...I feel its a google account problem surely but dont have a clue what to do. Thanks for your response all the same.
First......Ensure SD Card is properly seated, open phone and make sure of this!!!
Do these :
Settings/Applications/Manage
Applications/All/
Downloads/Clear Data.
Media Storage/Clear Data....

I cant quite explain what happened, but I fixed it. It had to do with a botched backup/uninstall of google books with TB. I tried to back it up but it seemed to just hang up. Then I killed TB in the Task Manager and restarted it. I realised a backup had been made for the older version(1.46) instead of the new version(1.52). Google Books showed up as a system app after my last FW upgrade and I updated it (through the market) but the update made the app unusable(FC everytime I start it). I ignored all that at the time since I didnt use it actually. Tried to remove it yesterday and I guess that set this whole mess in motion. Thanks to all
Hi guys,
this is driving me nuts. I've searched the webs and found some answers, but not anything I'd like to do to remedy this problem.
My brand new R800i, not rooted, won't download games from Google Play Store via wi-fi. It will just say "starting download" and then nothing happens, I can just just watch that bar indicating download as it does not move one bit. It seems some other people had this same problem, as I've found out on the internet. 3G works fine though. I had to download my games from the Play Store using 3G, which is a pain in the ass.
A few points to consider:
- I have only so far used one wi-fi point, which worked with all my previous Xperia Plays. Maybe if I try a different hot-spot, the problem will magically disappear?
- I do not want to root, unlock bootloader or do any such things with my XP.
- I do NOT want to reset my phone to factory settings, I would lose lots of savegame data.
- I HAVE tried several times clearing the cache of the Google Store app, Download Manager app and resetting the Google Talk app. Did not help.
- Downloading from any other source (Gameloft for example) works via wi-fi, it's just that stupid Google Play Store that does not.
- Some people say the problem should sort itself out after a few days...It's been two weeks and I still can't download via wi-fi from the Store.
Could any kind soul suggest a solution that does not involve resetting my phone, or rooting? Thanks for any advice.
Did u try clearing the data...not the cache but the data

Yes, did not help.
Besides, that just erases your user data right? Your log-in and password.
I will try it again just to be sure, but I think I did it too.
i too had same prob. but it got solved after 3 or 4 days... may be i was lucky.
Used to have this problem. Uninstall update ( this will get you back to old market) then let it update again. That's what I did.

...doesn't work for me, nor does anything else mentioned before Tried installing 3.8.15 via .apk and back to stock, clearing cache, data etc. Play Store works with UMTS/EDGE but not as good as before (takes a while before download actually starts, that behavior is new). With WiFi I don't get an error message but the download simply doesn't start. Everything else I do via WiFi works great (FTP-syncing calendar data stored on my NAS, browsing the web, file transfer via ES-FileExplorer and so on).
I use a Galaxy S3 with Siyah Kernel (1.5rc1), XXBLG8 Stock Firmware and XXLH1 modem. Same Market issue before the update (Siyah 1.4, Stock XXALE8, stock modem (May 2012)). So maybe it is not at all model related, but something with the market itself... Strangely I found just a few posts about this - here I have the most hope for help

Uninstall play store update, clear everything, reboot and try. That's what I did.
Edit: go to settings> accounts & sync > and check if you have background data checked.

First: I know I am in the wrong model section, as I use a Galaxy S3 but post under Sony Xperia... Sorry for that - it was just a topic that seemed Google Play Store related rather than dependant on a specific model.
Second: I tried all of this (although I don't have such a section under settings/accounts on my phone) and more. I just flashed the latest stock firmware again*, did a full wipe, used TriangleAway! and every single thing I can think of. I even went to my google-account to see if there's something wrong, but no.
Still: UMTS works, WiFi doesn't. WiFi otherwise perfectly working with all kinds of uses. Tried all tips and hints, nothing works. Problem started a few days ago with older fw/ROM, which I didn't touch for weeks and worked fine until then. I really don't have a clue what changed!
EDIT: I also checked, if my ISP or my WLAN settings (router) are off - nada. I tried to install/update an app on another Android device in my household: this one works perfectly with WiFi. So it must be the Store itself...
UPDATE: Still no real solution! In the meantime it worked for a few days without my doing and in the same way it stopped working again today. I guess the Google server software is bugged. I placed a support request at Google-Support. This was an experience I can't make public enough:
Even though I initially told them what I tried they just did a copy&paste of their own F.A.Q. This went on for four days, the didn't even read my information. And I was quite thorough. I even made a network capture file, prefiltered it with Wireshark and attached it to the e-mail. As proof that my firewall isnt't blocking the traffic. No reaction to that, no technician was asked or involved, nothing. They simply closed the ticket and left me standing there. I'm still pretty pi...ed. This kind of "support" I don't want at all. Just a waste of time. I sincerely hope for a Google PlayStore replacement so one is not practically forced to use it. I'd volunteer to pay 1$ more for each buy just to circumvent that kind of nonsense Google is playing here.
This is me again. My problem is back, I can't download via WiFi from Google play store on both my Xperia play and Nexus 7. What is strange though is that SOME apps will download while others will not. It seems that apps I paid for some amount /like GTA 3, Max Payne, Reckless Racing/ and that were never completely free, WILL download. Others that I got for free /e.g. Call of Mini Zombies, Juggernaut, Heroes Call and many others/ will not download. This seems peculiar to me. Did anyone have this kind of behaviour on your android device?

I get a "No connection" error in the Play Store on my ls970 LG Optimus G. I don't know how to fix it. I've disabled adblocker, factory resetted, make sure time is set right, logged out and back on Google account, flashed other roms but it just wont work. I haven't had access to it for over a month now. It says Sync error on all my Google accounts in settings with "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly." at the bottom of the page. No method works. I just want to use Play Store again.

Yeah like BaNks Gapps.
I'm getting this too
I am also having trouble getting a connection to the play store and hangouts (Chrome finds it easily).
I just did a reset from a softbrick using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2443185
I tried a backup version from my previous install, and also an apk from XDA (4.8.20), http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2227787
I had this happen before, but I did a Titanium Backup restore for the Play Store and that seemed to fix it, but after my reset using the LG Flash tool (see above), my phone won't root properly, so I can't get Titanium Backup to do a restore.
I've cleared my cache, I've installed new versions, reverted to stock, manually set date/time, used automatic date/time, done a factory reset.... can't get play store back.
Failed again.
I just tried the reset again, and again no connection in Google Play Store app. Bizarre.
Started working...
Put in information for my wiped EFS partition, filled ESN/MEID/IMEI info, maybe that started doing it? Doesn't seem like it would, especially since it was working with those all zeros, but it's working now....

How you did it?
That's the thing, I couldn't nail down the reason it started working. As you see, I tried to log what I was doing above, but I couldn't get a sure reason.
Hi,
I'm fairly new to the Android rooting community, that said I have been jailbroken on iOS since the days of 1.1.2 and have rooting experience with KitKat. I have a Nexus 5X and after rooting, the phone worked fine. I installed TWRP 3.0.2 and Xposed framework, but for some reason I was unable to get Xposed to work. After a week of no issues with the phone, the Play Store stopped working, and Hangouts failed to send messages. I could send SMS via Messenger app and would receive the replies in Hangouts. I did a factory reset, and now I am unable to do anything. I cannot login to my google account, use the play store. Whenever I do anything I get a message that says:
Couldn't sign in
There was a problem communicating with the google servers.
Try again later.
I've searched the web and the forums for issues like this and can't find anything. I would really appreciate the help. It may be a simple mistake that I made as I am not fully aware of how the Android filesystem works.
Also when I check for updates, it stays that the last time it checked was: 12/31/1969. My clock is set correctly and I am connected to Wifi.
Wow!!! What ROM and gapps are you running?
I haven't seen this since my LG G2 a couple years ago. Hop in date and time in your settings and turn off automatic date and time and manually add it... Unless you're saying its right there.
I would try going to TWRP and wiping.
Wipe/advanced and then check every box except for internal storage. Then hit home and go back to install, choose ROM then gapps then vendor.
Xposed has to be installed as a zip from recovery before you can install/use the apk (in 6.0.1 anyway-use arm64).

Unfortunately I can't use data either since I am unable to activate my project Fi service (since I am not able to make any data connection).
I've resolved this by wiping and installing PureNexus. No idea what was going on with the factory ROM though.

Any chance you changed your Google account password around the time you reset the phone? I think there is some lockout mechanism if they detect password change then factory reset. I believe it is something like 72hour hold.
Just did a clean install of Dec update on my phone (on VZW network but google unlocked phone). I'm running ex kernel 2.09 , doubt that has anything to do with the problem.
When I try to toggle the wifi calling switch, a second later an error pops up "Emergency Address Manger keeps stopping" app info/close app/send feedback.
Pretty sure the app to put the 911 address is crashing. Anyone else have this issue?
Tried clearing cache/data on the app, no help.
One way I make sure it's all is fresh first put your rom on a USB drive then I use twrp to delete everything then on a Windows computer just double tap the flashhall.bat
Let it fully boot the first time before rooting or changing kernal.

I didn't root or change kernel until a few reboots later, after installing all my apps(didn't even do restore data).
Never had a problem with flashall and the included wipe.
so no one else is having this issue??
