[Q] what app/s is/are interfiring with my internet tethering?

Hi.
I have the latest leedroid rom with the latest radio.
I have an unlimited cellular internet that works great on the cell phone itself.
When I try to use it as a hotspot I can only connect to Gmail from my computer. All the other sites show me a http denial message.
I read somewhere else in the forums that someone had a similar problem so he flashed the rom again but without any of the apps. I did the same and it worked like a charm. He then reinstalled the apps and it kept on working. I tried it and it stopped.
Before I try the very annoying attempt of uninstalling app by app until it starts working, I'd like to ask if anyone knows of some apps that cause this problem.
I was thinking of things like the AVG or viber/whatsapp. Meaning apps that keep working all the time in the background and use the internet.
Any ideas?
Thanks

fixed!
as it seems, some of the user data files stored in the titanium backup was the cause of it. I can't tell which one but when I flashed the ROM again after a full wipe and factory reset it worked great. I then restored only the data files and the problem repeated so I reflashed it with the wipe and factory reset and restored all the apps but non of the data files and it is working great!

Android Market/YouTube not working

Hi guys,
Its happened again. I started a thread about a problem I had with my android market when I suddenly couldn't download anything..just stuck at "downloading" with the stripes scrolling endlessly. Its just reappeared. Along with the similar problem with the youtube app "there was a problem while playing this video. touch to retry". I reflashed my ROM with ODIN, then wiped all app data then out of frustration..hard reset. Lost all the apps. STILL NOT WORKING. Clearly some Google Account problem. I lost. My wonder feels like a brick without the market working. I had a google account problem when I first bought the phone and had to use a workaround involving setting up a youtube channel. Now I'm really lost.

What kinda Google Account problem?
You on someone's blacklist or what??
Forgive my curiosity....you in China?? GFW??

No I'm not in China, I'm in Ghana in West Africa. I updated three apps last nite on my work WiFi. Before that I'd tried doing it with my 3G network but it was stalling like it is now. When it worked on the WiFi I just thought it was fine. Then tried using the market this morning on my home WiFi and thats when the panic set in. It just seems its not a problem locally on my phone since I've literally WIPED IT CLEAN it but the market still not working. Starts the download, the stripes begin scrolling and continue endlessly. Its as if the google account is malfunctioning somehow but I don't know....

OK.....
You try clear cache and data on Market App in Settings/Applications/Manage
Or maybe fix permissions in Clockwork and Dalvik Cache....

I've cleaned every cache..no good. Done a hard reset(lost all my apps!)..still no good. Can you elaborate on fixing clockwork/dalvik?(Don't have custom recovery installed by the way but have root and TTB Pro installed)

Hi again
Reading through your posts.... you seem to have tried almost everything.....
including reflashing ROM...
which ROM you use.....??
So my suggestion regarding Dalvik Cache and Fix Permissions may be redundant.....however, there I'd an option in Titanium Bkup to repair Dalvik....
Menu/more/Clean up Dalvik.....
Also, there is an App on Market to allow Fix Permissions, but, AFAIK, only 1 App at a time....can you get Market on PC/Laptop???
[Fix permissions is Linux thing, ensuring each file has correct "permissions".]
Perhaps apk can be download and side loaded on phone!!!!
Maybe try install ClockworkMod Recovery[CWM] ......it is in the forum, you can flash with ODIN or push with adb.
This will allow you to any least create Backup[Nandroid].....so you will always be able to restore your full phone contents, Apps, etc.

Thanks for the concern Irish. I indeed cleared the Dalvik(twice) with TTB before my eventual hard reset. Now there's an update to all this:
-Setup another google account and immediately was able to download a few apps while my phone was stuck on Edge(My mobile data fluctuates between 3G and 2G at home even though I do have 3G most of the time).
-My luck even lasted after the signal switched to 3G(still got two or three apps in) after which I switched to my home wifi to see if it was really fixed...but no. Once I switched to the wifi I was back to square ONE. Switching back to the mobile data network didn't help.
-HOWEVER, at work last nite, I used the wifi at work and the market WORKED flawlessly. Didn't miss a step. Got back the bulk of my 40+ lost apps thankfully.
NOW:
I guess this has more to do with my ISP at home which happens to be my cellular network provider as well(Vodafone GH). But I'm really at a loss now. Even if it was due to some new restrictions by vodafone wouldn't there be a way around it? I know about Android Market and port 5228 and all but I doubt vodafone would block the market when they've got the GS2/Tab on their portfolio. And I've got some evidence that my workplace ISP is a client to...VODAFONE. What a mess!!!
Thanks for your concern though. I'll look for the fix permissions app since that could make a difference. Its the only thing I havent tried anyway! Maybe it'll have to be next time I'm at work(If I cant find the apk).
PS:-I use the XEU unbranded rom (I8150XXLA2_OXXKL4_XEU (2.3.6)). Bought my phone in the UK sim-free
-My WiFi at home is 802.11g while that at work is 802.11n. Both have worked flawlessly with my Wonder and specifically my android market until now.

OK man.....hope you get it fixed.
Don't forget also CWM recovery will allow you backup total phone existing setup.....
so, if you lose stuff again, you only need to restore your backup to recover all Apps, data, everything on your phone.....
so no need to restore Apps again to get back to where you were before crash.
BTW.....fix permissions from Market:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.stericson.permissionfix&hl=en
Although it is pretty basic!!!! But it's from Stericsson.....he is dev for best Busybox Installer!!!!
Honestly, from what you say, I would suspect your home WiFi, you check router settings, etc.
BTW....TB does not completely wipe Dalvik....just repairs what it think's is missing.....
If you had CWM....you could completely wipe this, and run fix permissions. after making.g Nandroid bkup.....
Also, if you used V6 Turbo charger Memory Management Script....there is option to wipe Dalvik.....
It is no prob doing this, simply gets rebuilt by system, but without a lotta built-up rubbish....
Also, with CWM you can wipe all partitions before flashing new ROM....always a good idea.

I've backed up all my apps on my ext. sd with TTB but from all the stories I've read on our forums of FC's when restoring backups from TTB, its wise to get the CWM and do the nandroid. And will try downloading the app. Thanks for your time Irish. Will report back if(or when) its finally resolved. Interesting response from google; seem to share the idea that it has a more to do with 'connectivity' to their servers:
This is their latest response:
Thanks for writing me back. Your reply was very helpful, It's always nice to receive a detailed reply because it helps me a lot when troubleshooting. It sounds like you're having general connectivity issues - please try the following troubleshooting steps to resolve the issue:
- Reboot your device
- Sign in and out of Google Talk repeatedly to restore connection to our servers:
1. Go to your device’s app launcher, and press the Talk app
2. If you’re already signed into Talk, press Menu, and then touch Sign out
3. Launch Talk again to sign in (if you are unable to sign in, please let me know)
- Clear your Market cache (Settings > Applications > Manage applications > All > Market > Clear cache)
- Ensure firewalls are not blocking access to ports required for Android Market (TCP and UDP 5228)
- Confirm that there is strong connectivity on your device, and contact your mobile service provider if you aren't connected
- Uninstall Market updates by visiting:
Settings > Applications > Manage Applications, selecting "Market" under the "All" tab or filter and touching "Uninstall updates"
If none of these steps resolve the issue, please let me know, and I will be happy to continue investigating the problem.
Regards,
Cory
The Android Market Team

That sounds like a good response to me......keep in touch with them!!!

After clearing the stored wifi password, then rebooting before reconnecting to my home Wifi, the android market(and youtube app) are working again. I had cleared out the Dalvik twice last night with the V6 Script. This was all about establishing a connection to Google's servers. Hope it doesn't happen again...can be a real pain. Thanks for the responses

Was it necessary to install gapps (Google Apps) for the ROM you flashed?
If it was, were you able to flash gapps successfully with CWM recovery?
Maybe you could try re-flashing gapps, making sure it's for ICS/CM9.
I hope this helps.

[Q] Apps on market say my device is not compatible

Hey wuts up all first on new here so I wanted to say hi and thanks for making such an awesome site possible! Anyways I'm having problems getting apps on the market like Google maps. It tells me my device is not compatible. I haven't done anything new from my knowledge. I'm running the cm7.2 nightly from xjackofall. It only happened with some apps. Can anyone help.

Try flashing the gapps.apk that can be found Here!
That should sort it out for you. Make sure you uninstall all the current google apps you have downloaded, such as google voice, maps, g+, gtalk and so on.
Good luck!
EDIT: Ok this link should work

thanks ill try that once i unbrick my my phone. i flashed a pc36img that i though would downgrade my hboot so i could get s off instead it locked bootloader and bricked it. ive unlocked boot loader again but it still wont let me into the recovery. any suggestions?

never mind i fixed it thanks for the help with the apps ima try that now.

I flashed the latest gapps but it didn't change anything. Any other ideas?

Could be an issue with build.prop maybe?

Well did you wipe everything before you flashed? I think the way you are wiping is not correct. Before you flash gapps u must full wipe, wipe dalvick cache and wipe cache. Then flash gapps. Also helps to be flashing on a fresh rom that doesn't have gapps included.

So I wiped everything and started with a new rom. Everything worked great for a day for two then I went to download something from the market that same damn error popped up again. From what I understand the market can tell what type of device you are using is it possible that the data it is trying to access is corrupt in some way? If so what could be causing it to become corrupted. Granted I could be wrong about how market works I'm still learning.

Try going into apps and clearing data and cache.

Its working fine now and I did nothing. Idk my phones been acting crazy lately. It turns thing off and on by itself wifi 4g and mobile connectivity work intermittently. Lately when I turn my phone on the mobile network is off. right now the onlything working network wise is 3g so I have no idea what's going on.

I'm having the same problem.............Can't download Maps from the market.
I just flashed the new CM7.2
Can u give a specific list of GAPPS that needed to be uninstalled? Some of mine don't have the option to uninstall

First try wiping cache, dalvic cache and clear the market data restart and see if that fixes it. If that didn't work then you will probably have to do what ihugyou said and do a full wipe and reinstall gapps.

Have u changed your screen resolution? If so you can get this error.

have you tried just reflashing the rom? Some apps wont work correctly if you dont flash it correctly.
Make sure you flash the gapps correctly as well. Try reflashing it and let me know how it goes.

Check to make sure you're not signed in on your computer or another device. If that doesn't help, uninstall updates for each, clear data and reboot.
Open the store and 're enter your information, then after it loads, back out of it and wait several minutes. It should reupdate, and you can try again.

I've had this problem, which has even followed me from my SGH-T999 to a SGH-T999L (stock, neither rooted) when I had to change phones. Specifically Google Now and Google Voice wouldn't sync when on wifi, and this was true not only at home (ie not router-related). All other internet services, including Gmail and Play would work on wifi, and both worked fine on cellular.
Even before I switched phones I did a factory reset and it worked for a little while and then came back. And same after I switched phones. My hunch is that there was some corrupted setting that kept getting restored from backup. Recently I tried clearing data for Google Services Framework and a few other google apps, and again that worked for a day or two, then reverted.
So tonight, based in part on DocHoliday77s advice, I tried the following steps (after Helium backup, to be on the safe side):
1. Logged out of Chrome on my desktop
2. Removed the google account from the phone (settings->accounts->google->sync)
3. Killed all apps running (Advanced Task Killer), for what it's worth
4. Cleared data from every google app (or at least all the ones that looked like google services) one by one in the application manager (all apps)
5. Rebooted phone
So far so good--everything restored easily (much easier than a factory reset), and as with prior resets it's working fine on wifi. But I've been burned before so my enthusiasm is tempered...
Update 5/22/2014:
It's been working continuously since then. There were a few apps which lost their bearings--must have been linked to Google Services, but resetting was minor. Google Voice will still occasionally lose the ability to connect on wifi, but now a simple reboot fixes the problem.
I hope this helps someone in the same situation!

U can try to reinstall the latest update available for your tablet using LG Suite by clicking update even if no new updates are available I think!
U have the Verizon lte one! I don't know what is the latest firmware for yours, but it should work normally! I don't think you'll lose any files if u don't factory reset, but I'm not sure about this! You'll lose root if you were rooted when u upgrade recovery using LG Suite!
If u are rooted, use titanium backup for backup and easy restore.
And if u have root working for your tablet, then flash a custom recovery if u don't have one and find the latest uploaded LG official KitKat firmware in the development sections and flash it!

Does it happen when you are using a chromecast? When I use play music through the chromecast I was having a similar problem. I am on 4.4.2 with a v500

If this starts to occur and you recently did an upgrade recovery, you should have also done a factory reset after wards. Having recently upgrade recoveried in the LG Tool, I had a nasty loop of system ui has failed that I could only fix by also factory resetting the device.
Incidentally this does seem to occasionally still occur when I use the physical volume buttons with my chromecast.

I have this using chromcast. I have found an easy fix! Just say "ok google "(if u have enbaled it everywhere) and it fixes it!
