Market after root - Motorola Droid Bionic

Any app I try to download is telling me I require wifi. Anyone have any ideas what's going on? I'm kinda kicking myself for rooting now.

hmm my apps are working .. can you give an example of an app? i will give it a try..

Movies app is just 1 of many.

Right after rooting I tried downloading "QuickPic" and it did nothing. It said downloading app but it just did nothing. After I rebooted it started up again. Just a fluke maybe? Seems okay now.
EDIT: Tried downloading something simple like "Target" app. It froze up again for a couple seconds, started downloading at 5kbps and they shot up to complete. Laggy for sure.

hmm i am installed just fine in 4g areas... i did notice it seemed slow in a 3g area though...
just downloaded movies without issue.. rebooted and still there... are you in a 4g area? decent signal strength? otherwise i am out of ideas...

I'm in a pretty solid 4G area. Can I factory reset while rooted? I read that someone has done it.

i had to do a factory reset root was still there and it solved my contact problem i created

Just rooted
Just rooted, downloads and installs fine from the apps market with both wifi or 4g.

Factory reset corrected the problem.

I just completed the Root'ing of my mobile. At first I tried getting on to the Market and using the browser, but couldn't get a internet connection. I powered down the Bionic and then turned it back on. Everything worked like a charm after that.

Verizon NFL app

Has anyone been able to successfully bypass the the verizon firewalls and been able to have the nfl .apk app to work on the captivate or vibrant?
I downloaded it after using market access to emulate verizon. It installed but just hung on the initial load screen when opened up. I really wanted it too!

I want this too!!
The guys in the nexus forum have been working on this for a while. He finally thought he had gotten passed it, and posted the apk on a different forum. Someone posted the apk on twitter and verizon caught wind of it and sent him a C&D letter. Plus cracking the apk is one thing, but trying to crack vcast is not going to happen. Looks like we are stuck the the espn apk.
Does anyone have a happy alternative to our dilema, other than ESPN's Score Center? It rocked on the iphone, a little too laggy on android. Maybe a good raido app that streams NFL games? Im in Tennessee, and im trying to get my Chicago Bears games. Please, someone help!
i wouldnt think it would be that hard to say get the apk off of the fascinate and then emulate whatever the communications between the phone and verizons server is.........pretty much spoofing verizons server for the app into thinking that its a verzion branded android device and therefor allowing any phone to access it...... of course if it was that easy it would already be done lol.
Looks like they figured it out over in the evo 4g section!!! Only works on wifi for us currently, make sure to reboot your phone after you install.

I tested it. Cannot get it to work over 3G or Wifi. It just sits there and loads forever.
Try rebooting. On my G1 it works over both, but on my gf's captivate it only works on wifi.
i downloaded it, ran droidexplorer to install it and it works flawlessly over wifi. However 3g does not work.
Reboot your phone if it just loads forever
This is amazing....too bad it doesn't work for me on 3G, would love to watch the noon games while i am tailgating on Sunday...
try this out
Hi I am on att using captivate, I just installed this app today and was only able to connect thru wifi as well. I had to get some stuff done round the house and so I turned off my wifi while the NFL app was still running and to my surprise the app still worked and appears to be using my 3G connection.
Works on 3g for me
Yeah I actually downloaded an unlocked apk file at droidforums.net. It is working great over 3g as well for me as of right now on my Captivate.
I however cannot post the link but I will post the apk file.
Also, I'm not sure if it matters but I did have it running first with my wifi on and then I turned it off to test it on 3g. They also have an unlocker tool on that website but I didn't have to use it. Hope it works for you guys.
EDIT: By the way, when you download this through your phone, use Astro or some other file manager to rename it to an .apk file.
NFL Verizon used to work on wireless now not working
Anybody still using this? Even though the app used to run on wireless (3g used to give me some error) after the season got kicked off for real I got a message that I wasn't a Verizon customer. The live streaming never worked, but the app and some of the videos did. I'm running SRE v1.2.2.a (which I know I have to update) but it did work before....anyone else have any luck?
***I must not have been logged in before because I didn't see the zip file above my post last time I saw it, I'll give that one a go***
Worked for me just fine on wifi last night.
still doesn't work on 3g...but
it worked on wifi and I was streaming the NFL channel. It seemed to keep going after I ditched the wifi and was just on 3g, but it won't fire if I just open it up on 3g....
one interesting thing I noted yesterday is that when I turn Mobile AP on and connect my roommate's Vibrant on T-Mo it worked fine, which tells me the app itself is what blocks it from working over 3G vs something like blacklisting the IP's from AT&T, T-Mo, and Sprint...
yeah I mean the only way I get it to work on 3g is if I start it on wireless and then turn wireless off, so there is a check somewhere. Wonder if the app could be faked into thinking it was on wireless or something like that. Anybody have this working on 3g straight from the get go? I get "cannot connect to NFL Mobile. please establish a connection and try again"

I'm having the SAME exact issue. A few people here have offered advice which didn't work for me, but mostly I'm ignored because it seems to be "my problem" since not enough people seem to be having this issue.
If I flash back to stock using ODIN market downloads are snappy again.

Try clearing market data.
Clearing data didnt work

Is this happening on 3g or wifi connection?
I have seen this issue..i have three captivates all running cog5.5 and only one seems to have occasional problem with market...not sure exactly what causes problem but toggling wifi, clearing cache or rebooting seems to correct it
I am not patient so I don't wait an hour for a download....if it does not work I just try the above in that order and usually one of the first two works but reboot always fixes

It happens in 3g and its all the time, each and every single download. In wifi its normal and snappy. I know its not my network coz web is fast and everything. Rebooting doesnt work too, clearing market data too so what else could I do?

Just because your browser experience is good does not in and of itself completely eliminate your 3g connection a being the cause. One thing to try is attempting market downloads from a few different locations - this would help eliminate your data connection if your experience was the same at different locations.
I have a few more questions. have you flashed any custom roms? if you have flashed did you restore apps and data with TiB? Are you running any lag fixes? Are you using any task killers?
The downloads are the same everywhere and with browsing its faster than the iphone 4 I even compared them. Im runing the cognition 5 beta I think, I never restored anything and never screwed with the one click lag fix

Settings» About Phone - the build number at the bottom wil tell you which version of cog you are running.
When you say the market is slow everywhere - does it always everywhere jump out to a certain percentage than drop off to a slow crawl? And when you say everywhere - how many different locations and how far apart were they?
When you cleared the market data cache did you force close the market app first before clearing the cache?
And are you using any task killers?
Im actually runining cognition beta4, and im using the defult tast menager that came with the rom. Its all over the place, I could be 30 miles away from home and the downloads speed for market are slow. Usally it jumps to 14% or 33% and than just slows down like crazy and goes by 1%

It sounds like something is corrupted that market uses on your phone that is causing your network connection to crash while downloading. If the following does not clear it up you may need to reflash cog
go settings» wireless and network and put your phone into flight mode.
Then go settings» applications» manage applications - go to the "All" tab - scroll down and select the market app - here select force stop - then select clear data.
Then reboot your phone.
Turn off flight mode and retry your market.
Ok so I did what you told me, with no results. Still the same. How would I flash to beta 5 cognition? Can I just install it using rom menager and install it over the version I have now? Also how would I do it without losing anything. Also thank you for trying to help me!

Unless you go through the kernel swapping steps rom manager will not work with COG 2.2b4. Secondly - to be sure and get rid of what ever is causing your problem you wil be better off doing doing a full wipe anyway.
I use google contacts (www.google.com/contacts) and google colander (www.google.com/calendar) and then sync my phone with those each time I am done flashing. I move any pics, movies, and documents I want to save to my external sd card - and then I remove my external sd card for the flashing process (i also keep a backup copy of all these things on my pc). Any apps can be re downloaded from the market even the paid ones as they are linked to your google account.

[Q] Bionic and Motorola Media Link.

Has anyone had any success getting MML to work with the Bionic? I tried re-installing all the drivers and software, and still cant get it to work.
Works fine here.
Works fine. I had issues for a bit but noticed I had the Dev setting on. Turning that off fixed it. That was on stock.
On theory now and it still works.

That's weird, I've tried it with just about every setting on and then off again that I thought might effect it and I still can't get it to work.
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using XDA App
I think I figured it out.
It seems like MML doesn't play nice with the one-click root method I used. I unrooted and now Media Link works fine. I rooted/unrooted again to test my theory and the same thing happens. Rooted with one-click and MML wouldn't work, unrooted with one-click and it worked again, and yes I made sure to turn off USB debugging when I was testing this.
weird. although there are a few apps available to use instead of MML, like winamp and doubletwist

AT&T Update help

Hello. I recently got a Moto X and I've been trying to update it but when I go to settings then update. It says that there's already an updating being downloaded. Problem is, there isn't. I've tried lots of things like, force closing MotorolaOTA, Clearing data and force closing Google services framework. I've factory reset, Cleared Cache Partitions, tried downloading in a different WiFi. But none of those worked.

Here you go.
If it makes you feel any better I'm having the exact same problem. I was coming here to post as a last resort and saw your post. I bought the phone yesterday morning and got it all setup and saw the update so started the update. 24 hours later and it still says an update is in progress. I decided to try to install the Motorola Device Manager on my PC and it says an update is already in progress... even after I force closed Motorola OTA on the device. So frustrating to have all these issues with a new phone I was so excited about buying after coming back to Android after a couple year stint with iPhone 5 and then iPhone 5s.

Does turning on the WiFi help? Maybe its restricted to download in 4g to not eat your data plan up? Or how about doing master reset?
Sent from my XT1060 using xda app-developers app
I was on Wi-Fi for like 24 hours straight and it didn't download. When I leave my house and lose Wi-Fi I get a notification that says " Download will resume in Wi-Fi coverage" and the progress bar shows 0% even after several hours on high speed Wi-Fi. I also tried a complete restore and it still doesn't work. I wonder if the servers are having issues?
Sent from my XT1058 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
if you aren't worried about data then you can just use rsd to flash the updated FW on your phone. or manually do it. Or you can just push the OTA update file that it is trying to download manually into your /cache folder and then when you reboot the phone it will start installing the ota. easy workarounds. I haven't ever downloaded the OTA over the air actually. just push it to my phone from a computer so i don't have to wait for it to eventually pop up on my phone durring their rolling releases

I've tried multiple WiFi networks. I'm aware AT&T doesn't allow to update over data.
I don't know if this applies, but I had a similar issue with my Nexus 7 (2013). It wouldn't see the most recent update (JSS15R), even though it had been out for weeks. It just kept saying 'Your tablet is up to date.' While it's not quite the issue you're having, it might have an effect.
I went into Settings -> Apps and cleared data from both Google Services Framework and Download Manager. Then I rebooted and checked for an update again. I think it didn't work the first time, so I tried it again.
Hope it works, I hope to be getting a Moto X soon and would like to know if this works in case it happens to me!
Weirdest thing... I was out of the house for a couple hours so the download showed as paused in notifications.... I walked back into the house, picked up my Wi-Fi, and the update popped up as being ready to install within a minute. Hopefully yours eventually come through too Doctor.

[Q] YouTube - "Connection to Server Lost"

So I know this has been an issue for others in the past, but everything I've tried hasn't seemed to work. Every time I load up a video on Youtube, it seems like it's about to start but then says "Connection to Server Lost. Tap to Try again". This only happens when I'm not on WiFi though. I've tried restarting the phone, uninstalling all updates, clearing app data and cache, and none of that seems to work. I also don't have an AdBlocker so I know that isn't the issue. Everything else works when I'm not on WiFi though.
Any solutions? I would greatly appreciate it.
I apologize for the bump but is no one else experiencing this issue? My friend also had it happen to him after updating to the most recent OTA. So far it hasn't seemed to be fixed.
Had it happen before update but haven't tested since update. Will check it out tomorrow when I'm out. Service where I live is terrible so can't really test now.
Sent from my 831C using xda app-developers app
Edit.. just tested and YouTube is working fine. But that's after a data and system wipe from flashing new firmware and whatnot

Hmm, alright. I'll probably need to know if others that are on stock and running the latest firmware are running into the same issue. Because it seems likely that the update is the reason.
I'm stock rooted running the latest firmware and my YouTube seems to be working fine on both wifi and 3g. No issues so far and I've watched quite a few videos the last couple of days. I'll let you know if anything changes though.
Okay well I'm getting extremely annoyed here. The problem temporarily resolved itself for a few days but now it's back and now I can't even watch youtube videos on any Internet browser. It just says "sorry. This video cannot be played." it's clear this isn't an app issue, but what the heck is causing this? I should be able to watch a damn youtube video.

At this point, I'm assuming it has to do with the combination of Sprint's towers and the latest update (since that's when it began to happen). If you do factory reset your phone, please tell me if it begins to work for you.

Sadly no. It's so strange though, sometimes I can see the video as if it knows it should be loading the video, but then decides to give me an error one second before it actually starts. It's almost like it's being blocked.
Haven't been able to get mine to work with CDMA only, either.
I have tried everything and never managed to get a video to load, ever, while not on WiFi since I got my M8.

I honestly believe it is Sprint's doing, since I remember the videos being unwatchably bad quality back on my stock EVO 3D, if they would load at all, but after rooting it and removing the sprint proxy that suddenly cleared up, both the glitchy nature and quality. Probably use some kind of broken proxy to reduce bandwidth used by Youtube.

It has been happening with my phone as well. Works occasionally, but it's not just youtube, it's pandora, podcats, and even wshh. The problem has been going on since the update. I did speak with someone at Sprint and it was the usual "turn this off, turn that on, enter this." It worked but than went out again. Phone is brand new and 13 days old. Hope somebody can figure this out before i exchange it.
