VPNs won't connect. - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am running 5.1 rooted on an H810 if that makes any difference.
About a week or two ago my VPN stopped working and now no VPN works at all. I have been using Private Internet Access successfully for almost a year and other VPNs have worked as well.
I get no error message from the PIA app, it just doesn't connect. I downloaded CloudVPN and it just pops up with "VPN Permission: Cloud VPN needs your permission to continue. Your privacy is important to us and we do NOT monitor or track any of your data.", and gives me three buttons, No Thanks (goes back), Help, and Try Again (pops up the message again).
I'm kind of at a loss. I've dealt with tech support from PIA and have not gotten anywhere.
Could my issue be due to credentials? I cannot clear them, as the option is greyed out.
Sorry if I'm confounding the issue. I'm getting pretty frustrated and my Google-fu is obviously not as good as I had thought it was.

have you checked the adb logs for any errors?

I've never done that before. I just downloaded the catlog app and got a log. What exactly am I looking for?

There's the log for when I try to connect. Thanks ahead of time for this. It's driving me crazy.

Factory reset fixed it. Now I get to spend the next few days finding all the little settings I need to change back.

T-Mo Wifi calling and app update issues

I was having an error where wifi calling suddenly decided to not work after a couple of months. Also, at the same time my app updates stopped working. After using my google machine for a few minutes, it told me I have to change my 911 address on the t-mo site. I changed it to the nearest business to my house as directed by google machine. Problem fixed instantly. This has something to do with big brother requiring more accurate 911 addresses or something, and the address has to be "recognized" somehow and apparently business address are more recognizable.
The error I saw was this: "W006.15 ISP or T-Mobile Network Error". Also, something about how I have to register to the network then the wifi app would crash when I tried to connect. On the app updates, it would download the app. Then instead of going to install it would appear to try and re-download the app and then crash with the notification of error downloading update.
Anyway, hopefully this saves somebody else some time.
Decided to turn on Wifi calling today and saw it was not working. Getting the same error. I tried this, clearing the app data, removed battery and sim but it still is not working. Been looking around and see that many people are having this problem. Hope it gets fixed soon...
Need to make sure you'd wifi is sending information because sometimes your gateway or router would take a "break" and not found anything. So try to restart your router.

[Q] New router and tons of problems

Hello everyone! I recently upgraded my house internet connection to fiber optics (100/10) and i'm so happy with my internet speed! But I think my router is causing problems.
It's a Comtrend router. Here is a picture of it.

}
Fabricante: Comtrend
Model: Comtrend 5813
I'm not sure it's a very good router, but regardless, it's giving me problems on my phones and tablets. I noticed that messages didn't come in right away. And sometimes if I wake up my device and try to use the app store or gmail it'll say that it couldn't contact the server. I have to hit retry a couple of times before it works again. For the app store no problem. But for incoming messages via Line or Whatsapp, or emails via Gmail, it really gets on my nerves. But after I get it working again it doesn't give me a single problem until it sleeps again or I drop the connection with the router. I don't know...
The configuration is pretty straight forward. It WAS on just WPA and now it's on WPA2-PSK with AES. Both are giving me the same problem still.
Do you guys know anything that could help?
U should give it a try without encryption and see if it's causing the problem. And also u can turn off the router's firewall and ckeck how it goes.
From the middle of nowhere to the center of everywhere!!
As mentioned, try without encryption, but also disable wmm, qos, maybe reserve an ip etc. If it's fine then, enable the services one by one by process of elimination.

I was having this problem for the first day or two. I simply turned off mobile data for awhile and then turned it back on a few hours later and it only pops up now when receiving or sending an MMS (or when I leave the wifi signal, of course). Not sure if that's the fix or just a fluke.

This is across all phones I've used from time to time nothing to be concerned about it'll go away with time with no action on your behalf.

I figured out that its verizon's stupid CallerID app. It needs mobile data on to analyze incoming calls. It's not used, but its on. I disabled callerID and its not there anymore
I also thought it was the CallerID app and disabled it. However the issue re-occurs whenever I open the My Verizon Mobile app to work with my account. I tested it though by streaming some music for a while then checking my phones data usage in settings and it's not actually using mobile data.
My uncle's did the same thing when using Facebook app and then turning on wifi. Haven't had a chance to test his yet, but I'm pretty sure it's the same issue. Still, it's an annoying problem, especially when you get phone calls from the fam wondering why their phone's using 4g when on wifi
When my 4G won't turn off I just restart the phone and it does the trick. Doesn't happen very often for me though.

Mine is downloading over 4G how to stop or disable it tho ?
You can't it starts on its own. It's really, really annoying. I tried disabling this but can't. I guess we'll have to root the thing before we can finally get rid of this "feature"

I got it to stop downloading by disabling download manager.
But you need to enable it again if you want to download apps from the play store.
Nobody else had this problem?

I had same problem
I fixed it this way: Settings -> applications -> all -> Download manager -> remove data and clean cache.
After while downloads success
I had the same problem, it will only download over WiFi, until then you have this notification.
Clearing Download Manager data and cache or killing the process is only a temporary solution.
Same problem...But,it will download eventually! No worries... Just take it easy,sit back,watch some movie and by the time you think it is not done it will be over

Permission disabler

Hello all I am not sure if this it's the right place to post this, but I was wondering if anyone knew or knows of any way to disable permissions for an app. My reason being there's a rise in apps with permissions they have no business having. Facebook messenger for one, scanner radio and many more. I fear that trying to disable certain permissions without properly breaking an app down might break it,like not let u run it. I know this is a stupid subject but if anyone can shed some light on this situation it'd be much appreciated thank you

Depending on the ROM you can usually be fine disabling permission you genuinely find intrusive. For instance on vanir...

This app does the same thing. Neither of them do more than open the same activity that was found a while back.
