This is starting to become a recurring problem. I turn off my Data and WiFi through the day (to save battery) and when I toggle them, the icon shows up in the status bar, but refuses to change colors. This wouldn't be an issue, except it doesn't allow me to connect to the play store or anything that has to do with data (besides browsing the web). I'm not sure what I should do, flash a new modem or what?
Thanks in advance, I couldn't find anything on the web regarding this issue.

yea, you should probably try flashing a new radio, theres a thread somewhere in the forum but I can't remember where I saw it...
If you go to the second post in the sourcery forum they have a ga02 download which is the latest radios.

Thank you for replying guys, have you had a similar issue and that seemed to fix it? I just thought it was weird because it worked for about an hour or so, then just stopped out of nowhere. I'll try that with a fresh install then!

Every so often when I run the Play Store it says "No connection". And as many times as I push the Retry button it says the same thing. Even if I force close the app
I kinda just have to wait a bit and it starts working again. I never lose network connection though. I'm betting its not actually an issue with Google's servers so I'm wondering if its an issue with my phone or setup
I'm running the latest stable aokp and Franco
Also I have the USA unlocked gsm

Haven't had this happen.
Just had this happen. On insert coin 5.5.0 and bricked 1.1
Not working here either.. stock ROM with root and speedmod kernel. Even Gmail app is not working..
Anyone has a solution yet?
What worked for me but still no explanation
I'm a lousy member on this Forum, 2 years or so and my first post
I had 2 Nexus Ones and both of them took a swim (literally)
Gave up used BB-Gun.
Anyhow, I just obtained MyTouch 4G Slide and encountered the same problem, this place here was the last that I looked for an answers..on low/mid end Forums I've found a lot of half answers for example,
"yeah it happens"
"power off and/or restart,,it worked for me" (it didn't work for me)
My observations, at the same time that connection with G Play don't work also Google Maps does't work..Reason? No Data connection.
All was fine until I installed G Voice (conflict/ bug?)
What I did, is the following I switched to Wi-Fi, and it worked, then i uninstalled G Voice.
And tried again but this time I was connected to Wi-Fi, installed G Voice and the same problem..turned off the Wi-Fi switched to regular connection and it worked.
I know that I didn't offer any explanation or fix for the problem but there is a pattern
Fixed it!
I have found the answer! Well, at least this was what was wrong with mine:
It was just that the date on my tablet had reset to 2010. Put it back to today's date and the Play store works perfectly now.
Hope that helps.

Worked like a dream. I installed jellybean ((cm10) i think)) and wanted to go backto my ice cream sandwich. When i did, play store and youtube didnt work. I guess google apps in general. If google made it it said no connection. I tried uninstalling the updates and reinstalling them to no avail. I searched and found this thread. My date changed when i restored my back up. I didnt even realize it till i read this thread. My years changed to 2005. Switched it back to 2012 and no problems. Network connection fine. Thanks alot.
Authentication Error Occured when connecting to Wifi on the Galaxy Note II. Has anyone got the same issue? The Wifi was connecting till yesterday with the same authentication information. I am not sure what happened today. I went to a friends place where I had used Wifi before and it gave the same error. All other devices work just fine. I got the device on Nov 9. Not sure what to do now.
I have the same problem with Omega 8.0 ROM(4.1.2) earlier everything was working fine.
Most of the people do not notice it because it happens only with WPA-PSK & WPA-PSK2.
Try setting WEP on your router and everything will work just fine.
If you find any other solution please share it here.
Go a bit closer to your router.. it will connect.

I want to bring this back to life for only a moment if anyone cares.
I recently had this problem with my Galaxy Note 10.1 at my home. Nothing had been altered on the router, and I had not made any changes to the settings in my stock Note 10.1
First moving closer to the router is not a solution to this problem. I was an inch away from the router and no matter what I tried...restarting, turning wifi on off, re-inputting the correct password, removing apps... everything short of a factory reset. (Because that is the simplest solution when you cannot find a solution)
I also had this happen the day before to my old Samsung Vibrant (not stock, Rooted and Custom Jelly Bean Rom).
I did find a solution and I will give that in a second.
To the original poster I have to ask a question, on both of my devices I had recently installed a bunch of kid games one in particular that I think may have caused the problem was an app called Kid Mode. Did you happen to install this app too?
SOLUTION
Forget the network in the wifi settings, and then try logging in with the Wrong password! It will not log in, but will reset the device to try to actually connect.
Login with the correct password!! And like magic you will be connected once again.
If you too installed kid mode or perhaps an app that becomes the default launcher instead of whatever launcher your using this could be the cause...but I do not know why.

I've looked around the forums and maybe I missed something but I couldn't find a solution to this so I apologize if this has already been covered in another thread. Every time I'm on a Rom my 3g/4G data gets stuck way too much where nothing would load (Play Store, browser, Facebook app, etc..) and a temporary solution would be to reboot and most of the time it works but sometimes doesn't help at all. Regardless of the outcome the same issue occurs eventually in a matter of minutes. Every troubleshooting step I've tried has failed. Why does this happen? Is there a reliable solution to fixing these sort of data issues? Please help anyone.

Are you using a prepaid plan? Whenever I flash a new ROM, it does not restore my APN settings. If you're using something like Straight Talk, this information has to be re-entered each time.
No I'm not. I'm on that truly unlimited plan so I am on contract. The modem method does not work for me cuz I've tried flashing every single modem, including the new one but I still get the same data getting stuck issue.. Any other suggestions please?

I get this notification that says it's downloading. But when I go to app info. It's from downloads instead of the Play Store. I don't know what it is. When I disable the app. Everything stops working; Play store, Chrome, Facebook, etc. I was just wondering if anyone else had this problem?

I didn't download anything. I noticed it on my way home. It initiated randomly. And it won't finish, or even stop. It isn't showing in the downloads either.
****edit
I found it in the downloads a couple hours after the problem started. I don't have a full solution, which sucks.

Might be it is sync ur gallery with fb photos. Uninstall app and reinstall.
I'm experiencing this exact problem, also initiated on its own. I uninstalled and reinstalled Facebook but that did not affect the perpetual downloading of this. Nor have several phone restarts, etc.

solution!!!
I don't know you already fix this problem or not.
I searched several site and finally got an answer for this problem.
Just connect WiFi and let it do whatever it want.
Before I found this, I tried several things;
1. restarted my phone
2. pulled out battery and put back
3. killed the process from task manager
4. removed FB account
5. removed FB app from my phone (actually, back to previous version) and update again
Non of these helped me ever!!!
Also, this problem is not device specific. (I realize it after googling it)
I mean various devices and locations had the same issue.
Anyway, good luck!!!

Thanks. Connecting it to wifi did allow it to finish the unending installation very quickly. That was annoying and I'd like to know why an update initiated on its own, seemingly from within the app and not through the Play store (I do not have any auto-updates allowed, especially for social media apps), and drained my battery while it looped an install process that was apparently constantly seeking a wifi signal to complete.
Thanks a lot!!

I started having this issue today on my Galaxy Tab 2. The only solution people found on different forums is ti turn on WiFi. It'll immediately start downloading and would get installed (Probably due to its size it does not want to be downloaded on 3G/4G). Although I don't feel very comfortable installing this, Does not feel very genuine to me.
Did any one else had this problem? or any issues after installing it?
I had to switch to Wifi about 3 or 4 times and then it finally downloaded. It tried to download all of last night and killed the battery. In the mean time my phone has switched to using Edge instead of 4g and no matter how many times I switch Airplane mode on/off or restart the phone I can't get my 4g back. Think it is just a local problem? I've got a S3 on T-mobile in Orange County, CA.
After the first blissful week of my note 2 working properly, my wifi started a trend where it like to constantly download who knows what (orange arrow constantly blinking), which is a problem many others are having.
I've been scouring these (and others) forums for a while and am about to lose my sanity.
I have read through every thread on the issue and have tried every fix mentioned, nothing works. From what I can see, there are many people who STILL cant get their wifi to stop acting this way.
Any up to date info on this? My resources are exhausted, and I feel like throwing this phone into a wall.
Chances are if it wasn't answered in the places you looked. It will not help by opening a new thread.
Where is the issue in WiFi data icons being on? Sorry don't see how this is a problem.
so many factors...im not sure you can classify this as an issue, and i havent heard any complaints around here...from background sync to push data I mean cmon

My arrows are constantly running to. Unless the phone is off, but it'll still pull from Wi-Fi then also!

if that makes you want to throw your phone into the wall, I'll take it off your hands for you..
You don't provide much info but get https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.onavo.android.onavoid and set it to monitor wifi. Then see what is always polling for data.
