[Q] htc desire 816,CM12,browser not working on mobile data - Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I rooted my HTC desire 816 and currently have CM12 on it.
Everything worked well while i was on WIFI. I managed to update apps, sync email accounts etc.
However when I'm not at home and on mobile data, browser, Google Chrome and google play store won't work.
When I get back on WIFI, such apps work as per normal again. It seems like there's a problem when I'm on mobile data.
Thanks in advanced. I tries clearing cache and browser data nothing works.

What version of the 816 do you have?
If the Virgin Mobile version, flash the APN fix.
If not, check to see if your APN settings are set up correctly.

Cyanogenmod CM-10 no mobile data
I have an HTC EVO 4G LTE, I am currently using the 20121012–NIGHTLY because that is the only version that has working mobile data. Is there a reason why I can't get the newer versions to work correctly.

[q] htc desire 816 (vm) mms....

Hey, I have a HTC Desire 816 (US) for Virgin Mobile. I like the Google Messenger and Hangouts app however I can't seem to send or receive MMS for either app. The stock Messages app works just fine. I've done some research and it appears I need to look into my APN settings. However, I have no idea how to get to those on the phone. The directions that are given lead to know where. Can anybody tell me how to fix this. Thank you.
You probably need to download an app from the play store, I think the one I used for CyanogenMod was called Change APN. Just opens the APN menu for you. Also, the one site I found with Virgin Mobile US APN details had it wrong. But if you're on CM 12, their pre-set APN for VM is correct, you just need to select it in the menu. For the Sense-based ROMs, they don't seem to have it by default.

Thanks for trying to help. I am currently on stock rom and it appears that Virgin Mobile has the APN on lock down. I have not found a way changing it and getting it to work. Everytime I try to add a new apn with CHANGE APN app it says saved but doesn't add it. The one that's in there has a locked symbol on it. It could be because I am on stock rom. However I am rooted and S-Off, I still can't change it. I haven't tried CyanogenMod because I want a fully functional phone. Anybody else have any ideas. All I want to do is use hangout or google messenger with MMS and it work. I think it stupid that its included on the phone and it's not even fully functional. I can get chompsms to work but it has it's own apn settings.

That's interesting cause I personally use hangouts and am also on stock and rooted with s off and it works fine for me. What kind of error is it giving you? Is it immediately failing or failing after trying to send for awhile?

Problems after Marshmallow update, apps have internet but cannot load web pages

Ever since i flashed the Marshmallow update i have trouble loading webpages in all browsers.
This happens in Wi-fi as well as on mobile data, but it only concerns the browsers. All the apps requiring internet work just fine, which is why i suspected a DNS problem, but the "Set DNS" apps don't work and i don't know what to do.

No idea what that means. OTA? RUU? Flashed a ROM (if so, which one?)?
If the latter, did you do a factory reset before flashing?
Same problem

I've noticed this too when converting back and forth between GPE.. doesn't matter if I RUU to a current Sense build or take and OTA from 5.0.. I've even had it happen after formatting data and side loading a zip (lost my memory card for a few days lol).. it's weird, only happens every now and then after fresh installs but Chrome acts funny. Pages won't load due to loop, redirects, security flags, etc.. If I backup, I don't even have to wipe or restore that backup, it seems to fix the issue after reboot.. I can't explain why. You guys using Comcast or Xfinity by any chance?

Try change the network type to 3G instead of LTE, then change the APN to proper settings of your network carrier

"com.android.providers.downloads.ui" causing performance issues

Hi
Recently I bought an A5 (2017) cell phone, but I'm facing terrible performance issues (lagging, delays, crashes and noise during sound playback).
Additionally I get the message that com.android.providers.downloads.ui is causing performance issues. (unfortunately I'm not allowed to post screenshots.)
Interestingly when I use the "Device Maintenance" in Setting and clean the RAM, the problem is gone. I tried to close the apps one by one to find out the one that is causing the problem, but I wasn't able to do so.
I tried freezing com.android.providers.downloads.ui by cmd appops set <package_name> RUN_IN_BACKGROUND ignore and the problem was solved, but when I wanted to use Play Store, it said that I had to enable Downloads app.
Any help would be appreciated.

Maybe, you can force stop and delete data the Download Manager app in app manager

Thanks for reply.
I did wipe cache and it seemed to fix the problem but after a while the problem was back. I can't root my phone and there is no option for wiping dalvik in recovery mode.
About last option, does flashing stock ROM delete my apps and data? And where can I download stock ROM?

Flashing the ROM won't delete anything on your phone.Visit SamMobile and look for your model to get the correct ROM(Instructions can be found on the site)Also click thanks!?
You have been deleting things. This has caused the "com.android.providers.downloads.ui" error. Use Odin to flash your firmware to restore everything to normal. When you flash the firmware, choose home_csc to avoid deleting your data. Otherwise you will lose everything

I don't know how you got that I've been deleting things, maybe because of my bad English, but I haven't.
Actually, I started to disable (or freeze) the Download Manager after I received the "com.android.providers.downloads.ui" error many times.
I really prefer not to flash my phone, because it's really hard for me to install the apps again.
It will be great if you could suggest a way to overcome the problem without losing my apps or data.

Sorry....I see you are not rooted. That's fine.
Option 1....downgrade Google Play Services - locate in apps and uninstall updates. This will revert to an earlier or factory setting.
Test it and let me know

That's wrong actually you just flash the ROM,I did it multiple times and no he can't delete system stuff in order to cause those errors otherwise phones would have been complete trash.I really don't know why it's trash since it's brand new though?

I mispunctuated my reply earlier. No big deal.
I was on the understanding that if the CSC is flashed as part of the main firmware installation everything goes however, if HOME_CSC is flashed, data remains.

There is no such option as "uninstall updates" in Google Place Services in app section. And the disable button is grayed out. I googled, and it seems I need to root my phone to be able to downgrade Google Play Services.

Hi. Sorry - just seen this.
Okay. In Apps section, tap the 3dots at the top right of the screen and select "Show system apps".
When loaded, scroll down to "Google Services Framework". Tap it. Tap Disable.
Reboot. Repeat process to then enable. Reboot. See what we have.
It's just a case of diagnostics now, if you want to avoid the flash route (we'll try and keep that as last resort - but you will not lose data using my method above)

When I disable MTP Host the battery draining and performance issues are gone, but of course some the other necessary features would be out of access too.
I was wondering if there is any way to update or replace MTP Host!?
