[Help] [XS] Apps updating via mobile data when set to do it by Wi-Fi - Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion

Hello!
My Playstore is configured to update apps only when connected to an Wi-Fi network. But today something strange happened: it started updating Google Maps and Twitter when I was on mobile data. And it was incredibly fast
I checked the settings and they were still showing to update only when on Wi-Fi, so I'm pretty sure something shady is going on here.
Does anyone have an idea of what happened?
I'm on stock ROM JB 4.1.2, 6.2.B.1.96, rooted, LB.
Thanks!

Clear cache/reboot phone. It happens sometimes.

I did that right after it happened, lol. I'll keep an eye on it when there are more apps to be updated.
Thanks!

Seems it is fixed after clearing cache. New updates are available today and they didn't update while on mobile data. Great!

No connection for Google apps

Using LiquidSmooth ROM for about a week, suddenly my Play store doesn't work
It says "No connection" no matter what [I'm using Wi-Fi and can use web browsing and WhatsApp so its definitely not a connection problem]
Edit:
Its not just Google play, it's all Google's apps [Except for google maps, which was downloaded manually], and my Wifi signal is gray
I looked it up and the only fixes I came up for this issue is having the device set to the wrong date, but its not the issue here, it just has the same symptoms
Can anyone help? :|
Go into apps and try clearing data etc. Might work. Normally does lol

Didn't work :\
I'm also having this issue with a Motorola Defy (CM7.2 latest stable). Couldn't fix it yet. Anyone have a solution other than the date/time settings? (Those didn't work for me either)

Data connection problems

I just got my Note 2 yesterday and rooted it using the root toolkit v3.0 and I flashed the Whompasaurus 2.4 rom. Whenever I tried installing apps from the play store they would never start downloading, the bar would just keep loading. I cleared the cache and data from the Google Play Store, Google Play Services, Google Services framework then rebooted and still couldn't download anything from the play store but I could connect to the internet using the browser. I can also use the xda and other apps that used internet.I reflashed the rom by wiping cache, dalvik, system, and factory reset and the same thing still happened. So I gave up and went to bed. Woke up and the apps installed no problem. Later today I had trouble updating some apps. Now im having issues with the Accuweather clock/waether widget updating the weather. It just keeps loading amd loading but never refreshes. Does anyone know whats going on or how to fix this? Thanks.

Sounds whack. I am not at all familiar with that ROM, and I've never run into such an issue so I can't give you any direct advice on that. Have you tried flashing other ROMs though? It sounds like it may just be a bug in that build.

[Q] Twitter Notifications

Hey,
I'm on a stock, non rooted, galaxy S3 on jelly bean 4.1.2. Notifications for every other app works except the official twitter app. They just stopped working on their own a few days ago. I've checked the settings, reinstalled the app, restarted my phone, and everything except a hard reset. Anyone know how to fix this?

No I am not.
I might suggest trying another Twitter app. Pretty sure the one by Twitter is garbage compared to what is available.

Any fix to this? I updated to the latest version and it's still not giving me my notifications...
Have you tried clearing data for it in app management?

Yes I tried it. Didn't help, I also cleared the cache to no avail.
Also I tried a new app today, Plume. It wasn't getting any notifications either. This is getting extremely annoying...
Only other things I can think of is to try a factory reset. Backup all you can first though, including your internal sd. Sorry I dont have anything better at this point.
You could try to flash the latest firmware in Odin, but I have a feeling that wont do any good...
Is there a way to clear only dalvik cache without being rooted? If so, thats another thing you can try.

I had the same problem but was fixed with the new twitter app update
I found the fix. At least for me. On a PC go to twitter > settings > apps and revoke access to all the apps. Worked perfectly for me after restarting my phone and everything.

Every app or just the twitter for android one? Because I revoked just the one for android and it didn't help.
I bought falcon pro and it works flawlessly

[Q] Apps from Play store isn't getting downloaded

I've just up upgraded my Sony xperia s to android 4.1.2 and Google Play now doesn't allow me to download or update any app/game. The progress bar keeps spinning forever.
I installed few apps today and did my OS update from ICS to JB. I am not sure what the exact problem is.
Try wiping Play Store data.
The exact problem z that the playstore z updating
Sent from my Xperia S using xda premium
nothing to do with your os
relax it is a temporary issue..you OS has nothing to do with it..try after some time. Also check if your internet is working fine.
Well it's getting difficult now... I am using 2G network and i could easily install apps before an OS update. after JB update (even if it has nothing to do with problem ) apps are not getting downloaded using 2G network.
Now i can install apps from wifi but 2G isn't downloading any app of even 100KB....It's in a loop forever.. says''downloading but no progress bar is shown.
has anyone experienced such issue?

Most JB users, including me, are having incredibly slow speeds with 2G. That is one of the problems... Hopefully a new baseband or update will fix that.

I was curious about how exactly I wipe out the Play store data. I have checked settings >> Apps>>running apps
where exactly I can find an option to remove data?

[Q] Package File is Invalid

Has anyone else had a problem with updating or downloading apps? I've tried everything. I've called both Google Play Support and AT&T. I've restarted my router and modem, factory reset my phone, re-flashed the UCAMA4 ROM and updated to the latest UCAMC3 and it still happens. Most notably with Google apps like Chrome, Maps, Play Music, YouTube, Google Plus and Hangouts.
Been having the same issue all day.

I'm not a programmer, net tech background, but you guys have the latest issues posting on the web. I've been having the same issues all day, spoke with Google and ran their pre-programmed solutions. I'm just trying to do a reset & rebuild, all other apps seemed to install all right. Originally had issues with updating Chrome & Samsung Link, but in the past hr these 2 have been updated successfully. Only remaining issue is trying to install Twitter, still getting the same error.
Google issues all day myself. ..
And being linked to my home and work computers has made the problem even worse as I'm 4 states away from home. .
But I guess it's okay. .
At least I can post. ..g

I have 5 phones on my account and 4 (including the phone I personally use) of them, that I know of, are getting this message when trying to update apps or install apps. This includes certain Google apps, the AT&T apps and Facebook Messenger. I'm guessing this is going to turn into a widespread issue. I honestly think anyone and everyone who are having should call the Google Play Support number to report this error. Maybe then they fast track a fix once the programmers are notified of the error.
I said this once I'll say it again.. Try and update ur apps from a cellular network.. Not wifi......

Just tried 3 times to update Chrome Beta, over cellular network and got the error...
That's weird... I had a Samsung link update, I would get same error... Then I tried over cellular network and presto it worked.. Maybe keep trying?

Tried that. It works temporarily.
From my perspective, I think this error is linked to Android Device Manager. I haven't received the update yet, but started receiving this message on Monday. That is about the same time Android Device Manager started rolling out.
Things I tried...
Just trying to help figure out what is up so...
I have cleared cache on the google services, rolled back the settings update (gms.apk - removed the device manager), updated to the latest app store (4.3.10 - was on older version). I tried updating after each, no luck.
I can still download other apps, just not the google beta.
And if it matters, I am running Slim/ Devil with TBO apps...
EDIT: Working now...didn't do anything.
Wish I had seen this thread before I wiped my phone 18 times today. O well. Only Facebook is giving me this issue now.

The least they could do is allow manual update capabilities for the play services apk...
Try un installing the latest update from within your application drawer. .then allow Google services to update again. .
This issue is gone for me after doing so...g

Try deleting the app cache first. Then, delete the Google account and add it back. That should fix it for you.
Others have reported that this method doesn't fix their problems, but it did for me.
I have deleted the Dalvik Cache in the recovery mode as well, FYI.

Tried that as well, it doesn't work. But I noticed when I went to remove my google account there was a little message at the bottom that said Sync is currently having issues.
