Facebook and Instagram - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4

These two apps worked perfectly fine before. Then, we had technician come over and replace our router due to some problems it was having. Ever since then, I have been unable to use these two apps over WiFi, but they work when I'm outside using data. I would point a finger directly at the internet being a problem, but my aunt is able to use both of these apps on her Rezound without a problem whereas my Nexus 7 and GS4 are unable to use them. The apps open but I am unable to refresh, view anything in my news feed, etc. I tried reinstalling both of the apps and they still didnt work. I flashed different roms and they still dont work. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening?

Settings - Wi-Fi - tap & hold on your network - Modify network config - Check under 'IP settings'. It's probably set to DHCP. Set it to static, hit save, then go back in and change it back to DHCP.
I'd try the same steps above except instead of selecting Modify network config, click forget. Hit the scan button and rejoin your network.

Hmm, try giving yourself a static IP if you're using DHCP currently:
Settings
Wi-Fi
tap & hold on your network
Modify network config
Check Show advanced options
scroll to the bottom and note the value for ip address
change IP settings to Static
Everything should be filled out for you already. Change the last number in your IP address to a random number between 2-254, higher the safer.
If it doesn't help, change it back to DHCP.

For some reason, my Internet messed up last night and did not allow me to use wifi until now. Both the Facebook and Instagram apps are working oddly but if it happens again, I'll be sure to try this. Thanks for the help!
Edit: I forgot to add.. I tried FriendCaster (which is basically another fb app) and it worked perfectly fine while the Facebook app did not. I have no clue why.

Tethering Not working...

So I am using Straight Talk ATT... and I realize its against all terms of service and so on...
But it still should work. so far I cant get the APP wifi tether to work or FoxFi says its not available for ATT Nexus 4.
What are you guys using? on any carrier
Use the one built into android...
settings > (under wireless & networks category) more > Tethering and Mobile Hotspot
There are also plenty of widgets in the market that will allow you to use a quick toggle.

Try doing it with Open security, change the SSID and if you are using Win 7 make sure you select a profile (home, work, public) it will take a few seconds before it will work even though it is connected and assigned an IP. Also try it on something else, it make be your computer and not the phone.
Also, I find it odd that it only shows up as an Ad-Hoc Network? not an actual AP like normal
Hmm, I'm have the same problem with my Nexus 4. I'm with rogers and I used the sim from my Galaxy Nexus in my Nexus 4. Using the built in tethering Wifi and USB works on my Galaxy Nexus, but the on the Nexus 4, devices can connect but no data is transferred even though data is working.
The only thing I can think of is because I'm using the rogers LTE APN on the N4 but the normal APN on the GN.
Could this be caused by the straight talk APN that I am using? I am having he same type of situation. It connects but no data is transferred.

I found it where if you connect and reconnect, it'll eventually work.

Add "dun" to your APN type.
Tried adding dun and still not working. Any other ideas?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
if you tether LTE plan, will you get LTE speeds on the other connecting phones? or just the original host LTE phone
so anyone else have Straight talk and get this to work?
I had the same problem (with T-Mobile), adding "dun" as mayastig suggested did the trick.
Specifically, the APN type for epc.tmobile.com now reads "default,supl,mss,dun".
Sorry to be off the straight talk topic.. don't know about that but I am on the $30 tmob plan.
I just really need to tether maybe twice a month and I can't see spending $15 on that. My question is, of I do it using fox will tmob find out and ban me or something?

(Mod) Wifi only script

I've seen a lot of people asking about something like this lately, so I thought I'd dig up its grave and share it here to. ... Some of you may remember this from the Eris and OG Inc forums as well.
This is a very simple script that utilizes the radiooptions command to disable the radio but still allow use of WiFi. I wanted to make it to be run in init.d on startup but haven't successfully got it working that way yet so for now it can be run with script manager. This script can be run as follows:
1. Download the script and place it somewhere on your SD Card. (Maybe make a folder named Scripts to keep things organized)
2. Download Script Manager from the market.
3. Open Script Manager and navigate to where you saved the script then select the script.
4. Check the options for run as root and if you always use wifi only because you don't have service on your device check off Run at boot as well.
5. When prompted by superuser allow superuser permissions.
I have tested this script on my Incredible and my Eris as well and should be universal to run on any android device.
Download Here
If you are using this on an inactive device and don't want the activation screen coming up after reboot and new ROM flash follow these simple steps.
*NOTE: you need to be using a ROM that has EPST.apk (Sense or stock based) in it for this procedure to work.
1. Select emergency call and dial ##778.
2. Select edit and enter service password 000000.
3. Select NAM Settings.
4. Change Mobile Directory number to 0000000000 (Ten digits).
5. Change MIN1 to 0000000 (Seven digits).
6. Change Mobile Country Code to 000 (Three digits).
7. As you back out "Commit the Change".

I honestly never tried gps with it on mine since I rarely even use it on my phone. I know it won't for navigation unless its tethered to your phone since nav requires a data connection. For location only, I would lean towards saying no, but I'd have to try it first to say for certain which I can't do atm since I don't have one of my inactive phones with me right now.

GPS does not require an Internet connection. There are apps available that store the map data locally on the device. I use one. The downside of offline GPS is you don't get live traffic, you have to manually update the maps, and satellite lock is much slower when it doesn't have the assistance of WiFi or cell tower triangulation.
On topic, I use Tasker to do this (and start GrooVe IP) automatically whenever I connect to a WiFi network.
This is awesome CS, thanks so much

Yes and no. You can only use the GPS when you're in range of a WiFi network. GPS requires a mobile connection to function, so it will only work in WiFi.

you are right when it comes to gmaps, but i think i have seen other navigators that can store info on the phone, like in a car, so you coukd download the map data once, then use nav anywhere without internet connection. i can't for the life of me remember the app name though

Also, if (god forbid) I break my newer phone, would I be able to Re enable the service to the food olé Inc2?

Also, check your security settings. Some devices will not see a wireless network with security settings it can't support.
Rarely, because it's an international thing, channel settings can also prevent discovery. Just something to think about. Not that it should be an issue but may want to double check.

Android has issues with ad hoc sometimes. Certain devices like the Kindle fire can only use infrastructure based wifi due to the chipset used and/or the drivers included. Infrastructure mode is a more robust and stable network vs ad hoc too. I get about an extra 20' in range on infrastructure vs ad hoc. On infrastructure I can cover my entire 3600 sqft house with 1 access point getting 2-3 bars at the farthest end of the house, with ad hoc the back side of my house gets very weak or no signal at all. If your router/hotspot is capable I'd recommend settinf it up in infrastructure mode with the same ssid and security key (if you use one) and go from there

You said your phone's reception sucks at work. I'm sure someone will chime in if I'm wrong. Are you trying to get better data connection or phone connection? If phone, piggybacking off a router or PC won't help you to make calls if you can't now, unless you're using some form of voip on the phone. The SMS and phone voice run on the same line (I think). If you put the phone into airplane mode, but turned on wifi, you wouldn't receive calls or text. You'd only be able to do data. You have to be on a sprint tower to use the phone part.
Also, if you want your phone to get on adhoc and you can't now, you need a modified wpa_supplicant file for this phone. I don't know how to mod the file but a simple file swap and reboot would do it. At least that's how I did it with my original sprint galaxy 7" tab.

Reception is fine, it's just that data speeds at work are painfully slow. If I have a lot of apps to update on my phone, would be nice to just piggy back into the work network and do it that way.
My research has indicated that I'll need a modified wpa_supplicant, like you said, and I've tried some that are floating out there but they all seem to bork my wifi and I haven't been able to locate one specifically for the E4GT. Also, I have no idea how to mod it myself lol

Ehrpd data problems

Hi guys. I've been having issues accessing websites when I'm on ehrpd 3g. Sometimes the Google search site will not fully load when on ehrpd. Same with espn and other sites.
I can't even get a Google search to work.
However, other apps will access data fine...
These sites load just fine on 1x, evdo, 4g, and wifi.... Just not ehrpd.
I've tried to flash to stock, hands free activate, prl update, tried different prls etc.... I even tried different browsers... None of it works.
I'm running on Aosp carbon Rom and I've tried different Aosp Rom still no go.
The second line on my account has an evo 4g lte and there is no issues there while on ehrpd.
Anyone have an idea of what's wrong?
It's pretty sad... I have to use Bing.com for searches instead of Google while on ehrpd.
Yahoo doesn't work properly either.
Anyone?
I have the same issue, some apps (Chrome, Google Now, Pandora login, Google Play to name a few) don't transmit data on 3g, but work on everything else. I have tried all kinds of thing (PRL update, reactivation, clean flashes, Network/APN selections), nothing... Seems isolated to CDMA? Would love to find a solution, it has been happening for a long time now.
For a workaround... in a pinch, I have found that Dolphin browser always seems to work, so I don't have to resort to Bing

Let me know if you need anything else.
OK add the Amazon app to the list of apps that don't work for me on ehrpd. I can view the main app page but when I go to view my existing orders, it will just time out.

I made this thread over the weekend and got zero replies. I got it to not notify me about not being subscribed, but never could make my laptop connect. Its doing some sort of web verification I think.

The Verizon Hospot app has been hacked. I hope a dev could work their magic. Link below.

Except that when I look in the /system/app directory in the phone, I don't see a HotspotProvision.apk existing file there. So I don't know how Sprint does tethering.

Yes please anyone? Also I wish there was list of Roms and Mods in a single location for our Sprint version. I'm having difficulties finding anything.

Check the g2 forum again. If you're using the app trying unsubscribing then check again. I had to force stop and cleared cache too because I didn't see it at first either.

I need this as well. Hiding the soft keys and wifi tether are the main reasons I rooted.

Same here
I got wireless tether w/Treve mod to run without the provisioning message....i just can't get it to show an SSID to clients. It's apparently pretty common with this app, still playing with it.

I am not sure if the TreveMod is going to help. I have encountered your situation before where when you activate the wifi tether, everything looks good and dandy but the thing is it never broadcasts the SSID. I guess continue tweaking all the settings and let us know if you can get it working.

I have used these instructions successfully on another phone and tab. Not saying that it will work here, but it's worth a shot. Please post results and I'm about to get this phone in the next week.
Thanks.

The wifi treve-mod is what bimmerdood has been testing with. This treve-mod doesn't seem to work on 2013 smartphones. It may appear that the mod works because it will attempt to start a wifi tether session on your phone but it doesn't broadcast the SSID of your phone to say your laptop or tablet to connect to.

How did you get this to work? I don't care if the SSID is broadcast or not, as long as it works still.
Morning. Rooted now so figure it's time to get on this.
As it seems others have done I want to try the wifi tether that I have on the N2 and see what happens.
I'll post updates as I get moving on this.

Yeah, i found lots of instances in my searches where the SSID wouldn't broadcast. We press on!
OK, using the Wifi Tether - TrevE Mod - Auto model....
Everything seems to work except setting ad-hoc mode. Data is working but wifi not visible.
Let me play around with it a little more.
I know it's been said already but it seems something - whether in wpa_supplicant or F/W - is blocking ad-hoc mode.
I'm going to keep poking around in the time I have left today.
Well, not sure if this is progress.
Device-Profile: Generic ICS/JB (wlan0)
Setup-Method: Netd
Starts with no errors but can't see it. Can't see a signal either in Wifi Analyzer.
Can someone point me to this TrevE-Mod everyone is talking about? Id like to download it.
