I have tryed 2 different routers @ work and home

Could be that your 3G is using background data, so it has no bandwidth left for other downloads.
Disable your Background data : Settings -> Accounts and sync -> Turn off Background Data and Auto-Sync
Can you browse the web on 3G ? What about using another gmail account ?

i can use Android Market in both 3G and WiFi
are you able to browse the web when only using WiFi ?

Solved....
Wifi router firewall??? Disable and problem solved lool

Maybe ur over the download limit. Some providers have limits to how much you can download. So i think you should check ur provider

Im with optus in australia got a 2gig limit still got plenty left. The strange thing is i can still download through android browser. I think i mite have to do a factory reset but trying to think of ways around it koz just got the fone how i like it lol

You could try settings/applications/manage/download manager and delete data that has worked for some people but not 4 me lol. i think it has something to do with settings that go messed up by an app

Thank goodness I found this thread!! I've been going completely mad for a couple of days. I've re-flashed the damned phone 100 times, formatted the SD, repartitioned, cleared the cache, I've tried another google account etc etc. I'm with Optus too and it started happening when my JPC firmware started acting up yesterday. I decided to try JPH and I couldn't download any APPs. Currently I'm not near my WIFI so I'm not sure if that works but I'll check it out soon.
I even went all the way back to the Optus branded firmware JG4 to see if that works and that was dead too.
If it's some kind of Optus thing, I'm OK knowing it's not something with my phone. Hopefully they will fix it soon.

This is fk. Had same problem with Optus. Tried everything with no luck. Gonna ring Optus today.

I certainly hope you didn't disable the entire firewall, instead merely opened up the specific port(s) required by the market?
If the latter, could you share the port numbers, please? Thx!

[Q] HTC Apps Notes Problem

So I recently updated the HTC App Notes via the Marketplace and now I can't open it. Whenever I try to, it goes to a black screen, then back to the home screen. I wrote down some pretty important notes in there and would love to either have them back or get the app to start working again without losing any data.
Any suggestions?

Turn your phone off, then back on again.
And a word of caution - it's generally a bad idea to use apps which store your data only on the phone. Apps like the pre-installed OneNote will sync your notes to the web, so you'll never lose them.

Yeah restarting it was one of the first things I tried, but no luck.
And yeah, I guess you're right I'll take a look at OneNote after I get my data from Notes lol
Anyways, any other suggestions?

You can try uninstalling the app and re-installing it, but you may well lose your data if you do so.

Losing the data is what I'm afraid of :/

Why did you start using an app that has no way of backing up?

Dunno, I guess it was pretty and it was an official htc app? Lol it was my first time using windows phone 7 and I guess I just used what I found first time around

why the hell would he do that? factory reset would be an absolute last resort.... and i have no idea why the hell you think installing apex would help him?
OP do you have google now enabled?
first thing i would do is disable data and disconnect wifi - make sure it is an app trying to fetch data that is causing the problem, if that turns out to be the case then simply stop all apps from syncing automatically and reenable a few at a time until you capture the problem one.
check out whether your GPS is being used too - google now would use your location and fetch data a lot, my money is on it.

fair enough... but you can be 99.99% sure that it is something you have installed that is causing it.

Uninstalled all the downloaded apps other than facebook and twitter, pretty sure it has something to do with the facebook app.

WIFI direct

Does anyone know how to use Wifi direct with the HTC one to transfer moderate to large files like movies or videos.( beam/bue tooth is to slow) Everytime i try to use it with any phone it fails or doesn't connect. ive also tried third party apps like super beam/ send!/file transfer/ none of which work. i find it hard to believe that the HTC one is suppose to compete with the GS4 and GS3 but cant do any features that mimic S BEAM its a fail on HTC. if anyone could help to get this to work i would appreciate it thank you

Superbeam works fine on my HTC one. Use it to transfer between my one and my Nexus 10 all the time. Make sure Wifi direct is enabled on your phone, I believer there is an option to block it if you don't want people connecting, or something.

Every time I use it it says wifi direct fail I've tried HTC to HTC and HTC to Samsung I have my wifi and wifi direct turned on still not working I even went into the wifi direct option and manually paired with device still not working also tried a different HTC to make sure it's not mine still having same is first file was 86kb failed next was 1gb movie failed

I've successfully transferred a picture with super beam from my one to nexus 7. Not sure what's keeping it from working

Maybe you could try doing a factory reset or a custom rom, maybe something is borked in your os.

Have the same problem. Try to use WiFi direct with my wife's gs3 so I can watch a movie on my ps3 and her phone kept saying connection failed. Her sbeam was on and we were paired. Kinda weird. Any way on a side note any way to connect our phone as mass storage instead of mtp?

i rooted and flashed custom rom wifi direct still not working with superbeam always comes up saying wifi direct failed try wifi hot spot option....any other suggestions

MadMan3353, we are building an app that does exactly just that. The app is called Drop, and it is a simple, fast, and secure way to share files with people/devices in proximity over WiFi Direct. We are going into a limited Private Beta soon, so if you're up for the challenge, (and running Jelly Bean) then sign up at www.get-drop.com. Seats are limited, and we have a rolling enrollment, so check it out.

This is why I think Samsung in the long run is going to lose...as they copied their way to the top, they are becoming like Apple...create a closed-ecosystem solution. At a minimum you need to create something that works at least within Android....and if you're ambitious, make it work cross-platform with iOS....shameless plug...go check out what we're doing at www.get-drop.com! Going into Private Beta soon for Android first...

YouTube forceclose.

So this is a somewhat frustrating issue where I cannot watch YouTube videos over any kind of mobile data, only on WiFi, otherwise it force closes when the video is loading. I have tried many different things including reinstalling my Rom. (Ecliptic.). No dice. I can't figure out if it's an app problem or a Rom problem and if there's a fix.
