Help! HTC Dev Edition all wonky (can't connect to google)

Got a HTC Dev edition on release. First thing I did was flash CWM recovery with fastboot and rooted.
Everything has been working great until yesterday. I went to test the wifi tether as I am out of town this weekend and need to tether my tablet and laptop to my phone. Ever since, however, I have been unable to access any google services from the phone via wifi or data network. Everything else connects and works fine and I can even tether and use the internet just fine. However the wifi tether options were all grayed out.
So I backed everything up and tried to flash the stock RUU downloaded from HTCdev. Fails with Error 155. I tried flashing stock recovery. RUU still gets error 155. So I did a factory reset from the bootloader and still I am unable to connect to google services. Since its factory fresh I have to add my account but when I try to do so I get the following error "couldn't sign in - Can't establish a reliable connection to the server. This could be a temporary problem or your Android device may not be provisioned for data services. If it continues, call Customer Care." But my data connection is working fine and I can use gmail from a web browser no problem.
I checked the hosts file and its fine (no hard coded ip for google stuff) and I am at a loss of what to do to fix this now. Since factory reset the wifi tether options are all there but my google servies still will not work.
Ok I locked the bootloader then ran the RUU again. Part way through it screwed up gave error 155 again and then all I had was a black screen with !points in triangles in the corner. Restarted the RUU and my phone. Went through the process again and then in completed sucessfully.
So now back into my phone and still I can not connect to google services. gives same "can't establish a reliable data connection to the server" error.
I am at a loss.
Similar Problem
I've got a similar problem.
I was attempting to root my phone, so I unlocked the bootloader and rooted it, with unlocked and tampered now showing up on the bootloader screen. However when i went to restore my settings by signing into google play and dropbox I get the same message, that I cannot connect to the severs. However this only exists in google apps and dropbox as facebook works fine as does the browser!
At a complete loss with this, any help would be much appreciated also!!!!
I've made a bit of progress. If I limit my phone to wcdma then I can get it to work periodically. But it will still give me no connection every now and then. If I play with mobile setting's sui that it disconnects and connects a few times it will start working again for a bit.
I'm starting to wonder if this is an google issue.

[RESOLVED] MMS Issue after Kit Kat OTA

Never rooted or modified Note 3. I upgraded to Kit Kat yesterday. I was sent a few pictures via MMS but cannot download them, it just says failed. This is with the stock messaging program. I click download and it tries to download it but failed again.
Anyone else have this issue?
Update, figured it out. Seems like my data connection was not working. Was not able to browse websites or anything. Switched airplane mode on/off and verified I could browse out. Tried again to download the MMS context and it all started to download just fine.

[Q] Wifi Tether / HotSpot issue on unlocked GN3 (sim card - Tmobile)

Phone specs:
ROM: UDroid
Safestrap: Yes, latest KK version
Root: Yes
Sim: T-Mobile
Model: SM-N900a
Issue: When I try to turn on wifi hotspot / tethering I get the following message: "Mobile hotspot is not available or invalid sim"
I searched online and came across this thread, with the following suggestion: Freeze "tethering provision" in system apps
I did that in Titanium Root, but when I tried to turn on the hotspot, I get "Unfortunately Settings is not Responding"
Are there any other suggestions known to enable this Wifi Tethering / Hotspot?
Thank you!

S6 Active No Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.

Hello,
I recently attempted upgrading my device from 5.1.1 to 7.1 G890AUCS7DRF2. The device successfully installed all 4 parts of the installation using Odin.
AP_G890AUCS7DRF2_CL12599862_QB18539350_REV02_user_low_ship_meta.tar.md5
BL_G890AUCS7DRF2_CL12599862_QB18539350_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
CP_G890AUCS7DRF2_CP9924223_CL12599862_QB18539350_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
CSC_ATT_G890AATT7DRF2_CL12599862_QB18539350_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
After the initial install I'm now having trouble with my Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. I'm not getting any sort of IP address under my Bluetooth tab.
Attempted troubleshooting:
-Attempted resetting Wi-Fi and Bluetooth in the settings of the cell phone.
-Also attempted clearing cache from recovery.
-Reset device completely to factory.
The only thing that pops up is my cellular data and that works fine. Anyone have any solutions to this issue? I'm unable to revert to 5.1.1.
