I have a weird problem with my AT&T galaxy tab. For the past couple of days, each time I launch the Market, my 3G connection is killed and I can no longer access the network, and of course I cannot access the market. As soon as I kill the market app, my 3G connection comes back.
I cleared the data and cache of the market app, did not solve the issue. When I uninstall the updates of the market app (reverting to the original ugly market app), everything works fine, but it then automatically updates itself and the problem comes back. I assume this is a problem with the market app itself and not my device (hopefully).
Has anybody else experienced this issue and found a fix?
I am running stock ROM with third party apps installed enables (done it with superoneclick: root, enable third party apps, unroot).
I have the amazon app store installed, so I can still buy new apps, but I would like to be able to get updates for the apps I have purchased from the market.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
What modem are you using? Does the problem happen when you are using wifi? I think the JMF modem that is available for overcome rom is weak and I get many dropped connections and slow data speeds.
I am using the stock ROM and stock modem, I have never flashed a ROM. It only happens with the Market App.
Same issue for me. I have a rooted stock rom.
I have the same issue. Also stock rom and rooted. When WIFI is on (and connected) the market works fine.
I have been beating my head against this since I bought one. I am rooted using....I think I used Super One Click......stock everything else with non-market apps enabled. I originally thought that Root had broken it; however, if I unrooted, reset to factory, I still had the issue.
After many hours at the ATT store and on the phone (and swapping the device once and SIM card twice) I had an epiphany. a Factory Reset does NOT wipe the Internal SD like I thought it did. It leaves /mnt/sdcard/ intact. So, just for kicks, I began looking at my folders here. I MAY have discovered something. Market started working after I restored this folder to it's factory content (deleted any folders having to do with Apps in general).
I can typically hold power, deactivate Data connection, wait a few seconds, re-enable, and I get 3g back (at least for browser and other apps, Market still fails).
I have PSX4Droid installed (PSX Emulator if you don't know). There is a folder here named /.psx4droid, so I renamed it to /psx4droid (If I remember correctly, doesn't the "." hide the folder......too long since Linux class). I then deactivated/reactivated my data, and the Market started working properly.
I am not sure if it has to do SPECIFICALLY with psx4droid or just the "Hidden" folder in general, but now my Market works. I have 2 more folders in this location (/.downloadTemp and /.FileExpert) that may/may not cause any problems. I will post my findings.
.....Okay, so I'm going to type what I write now....Market just failed. Now I'm renaming /.FileExpert....Let's see what happens......
Damn. Still fails. But I'm tellin' ya. There is something in this folder causing it.
Or maybe some app is causing it to break......I have Amazon App store installed, what about you guys?
I do have Amazon App installed.
Anybody with an AT&T Tab not having the issue?
Same issue here. I had the Amazon Appstore installed but uninstalled it probably a week afterwards. Rooted running stock, everytime I go into the market it crashes the 3g. I found a folder in sdcard/android/data that had a bunch of appstore files in it. I deleted that and still having the same issue. I have removed all 3rd party apps so I have no idea what is triggering this. Please help.
P.S. I can access the market on WiFi
This also happens to be sometimes, if you tap wifi on then off again your 3g should come back and work fine.
swyped from a galaxy far far away...
Unfortunately what you proposed did not work. The market is killing the network connection each and every time. The network connection only comes back when the market app is not active anymore.
Since everything works fine when the market upgrades are uninstalled, I really think it is a bug in the newer version of market. Hopefully, the next update will fix this.
Maybe when Gingerbread is out!
I'm thinking this has more to do with us having installed amazon appstore before it was supposed to be. Somebody is mad at us
Has anyone made any progress on this situation?
Sent from my SGH-I987 using XDA App
I really wish I would have made more progress. After all the trouble I had with the device with this issue, I was seriously monitoring the apps I installed and then testing the Market. I gave up after a while since I am on Wifi 90% of the time and hardly ever do I access the Market while driving. I still have a feeling that something in /mnt/sdcard is causing it. Like I had mentioned, I could wipe back to factory and the problem was still there. I seem to remember that it only started working proper after I had cleared this location of crap. I would think that a Market update would see a larger group of affected tabs than just a handful of us. This doesn't seem to be a widespread issue.
That being said......I have decided to move on to Gingerbread. Maybe that'll fix it
Hey guys, try this. Worked for me and my Data problems with Gingerbread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13751694&postcount=6
Basically create a new APN inside Settings -> Wireless and Networks -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names. Only set the APN to "Broadband," save it (Menu button) and select the radio button for it. Instantly fixed my data issues.
Thank for the tip. Unfortunately, it did not work for me. I am running stock 2.2 and waiting for the official 2.3 update from AT&T.
Good Luck. I thought about waiting for the official.....but I also have a Captivate. We didn't get 2.2 until MONTHS after the rest of the world (I think it was like 5 or 6 months later). I didn't want to wait that long again.

Could you please report if the problem fixed with Gingerbread ?
At first I didn't have ANY cellular data until I created a new APN mentioned in the tagged thread (APN Broadband). Now I have no issues with Market. I wish I could trust AT&T to release Gingerbread in a timely fashion, but I know better. So instead, I flashed Overcome.
P.S. I really can't enough of the CRT lock animation......damn I'm such a geek....
Edit: To mod: If possible, please move this thread to a non device specific subforum, as people with different devices are experiencing the same problem.
So today I decided to factory reset my HTC One, and install back some applications I had previously.
However, after the factory reset I am unable to either install or update any application, with the Google Play Store returning: ""{app}" could not be downloaded due to an error. (403)".
I've been looking around a bit and have seen quite some others with this issue, however no solutions have worked for me. What I've tried:
Logged into Hangouts and confirmed mobile number.
Removed Google account in settings --> Go to Apps>All> and force stop Google Play Store, Google Service Framework and Download Manager, then clear cache and data for each --> Added back Google account --> Restarted device (without launching Google Play Store).
Using a new gmail account.
Clearing Proxy: I've looked in my Wi-Fi and APN Settings, both of which have no proxy set to begin wit.
Using 3G instead of Wi-Fi.
Another factory reset (repeated other steps afterwards).
Installing apps onto my device from my PC (it won't attempt to install them on the phone).
Please note my phone is not rooted and I'm not planning on rooting my phone any time soon.
Thanks in advance,
Errors4l.

Interesting, this is happening to me also after a factory reset of my HTC One. Tried all of the above, my phone too is not rooted however the bootloader is unlocked.

Yeah I've encountered quite some threads of people having this problem with the HTC One, however their solutions have not worked for me. Hoping someone can bring an answer to this thread
Yea it just seems unusual that it has happened to us pretty much at the same time under the same circumstances, maybe there is some issue with the store rather than our devices, I hope so!
Having exactly the same problem, tried everything. Even got a new handset because of the original issue which caused me to perform the factory reset. Maybe a problem with Google Play?
Hey guys!
I did a factory reset on my LG Swift L9 today
and also can't download any app from Google Play
due to 403. It may not be related to HTC One only.

I've got a new Nexus 5 delivered to me hours ago, first time using it and i can confirm the same sadly, hopefully it will be resolved soon !
What would be the quickest way to alert a mod so that the thread can be moved to a non device specific forum?
Hi all,
Picked up a Nexus 7 today - it was initially loaded with an old build of Android (Blue connectivity bars not white etc) and everything seemed to be working fine. Notification popped up for me to install the latest version, so I stopped what I was doing, got it installed and I'm now stuck with the same 403 errors as everyone else.
Looks to me like a Play Store issue but damn infuriating seeing as I can't even put any basic apps on my shiny new Nexus.
Noticed on another forum earlier that someone was having the same issue, and a guy responded saying he'd returned his Galaxy Tab to the store it came from today (Curry's, I think?) and after the staff there contacted Samsung - they were told that it was an issue with the Play Store. No obvious citations of course, but seems pretty legit what with everything else going on.
And now we wait...

I changed the title and inserted a request in the first post, hope it'll get noticed faster this way by a moderator
(Not so) sorry for double post.
I just tried again, without making any changes to my phone, and I just downloaded 3 different apps (2 I had previously, 1 new one).
Need a confirmation if the problem is solved for other people (with different devices) before I request a close.
Yeah, it works for me too now!

Nope, still 403'ing over here. But I'll keep checking in case it's gradually being fixed.
Still getting errors here too.
403 =/
I'm glad it's not just me.
I tried resetting/clearing everything thinking it was my phone cos I just recently rooted and flashed this brand spanking new HTC One (it was a replacement for my broken HTC One that had a working store :crying, until I went ahead and Googled this annoying error.
Seems like it's a problem on the Google end! =/
Get same error, tried RUU reset and ViperOne ROM.
Still 403 error! Very annoying
Spent 2 hours or so messing installing cyanogen on my new nexus and thought I'd ****ed up. Then googled it. I can believe it, talk about bad timing. lol
Looks like we are not alone...

Hi all. I did a search but couldn't find a clear answer to this particular question. If it's out there I would appreciate if you could throw me a link.
I just received a replacement Moto X for my current unit which has a bad camera. Both were created using Motomaker if that makes a difference.
I've got the new phone activated and used Migrate to move the basic stuff, but I can't seem to find a way to move the majority of my apps to the new phone (I've used Titanium Backup previously but I guess that's not an option here as both have 4.4.2) and I've got quite a few programs that contain settings and data that I really don't want to lose or have to recreate from scratch.
Is there a program that would allow me to move the bulk of my current apps and the related data to the new phone relatively easily or should I just start the copy/paste bucket brigade via USB and my computer?
Edit: I'm also open to using adb and a nandroid backup if that's a possibility, but I would appreciate pointers to instructions if they exist. Thanks.
Does Google back up work, when I switched from my HTC to my MotoX, everything went across including wifi locations.
It should be in your menu, you are actually backing up your Google account and it restores data on any device that you sign in on.

It doesn't appear to be working as advertised. I've installed the same apps that were on my original phone and none of them had the same configuration or data on the new phone. I've even tried removing apps from the new phone and forcing a sync on the old phone, then reinstalling on the new phone about a half hour later to see if that might help but have had no better results.

Is it working properly with the Moto X now? I've seen quite a few reports of it failing on Motorola phones and the Play description itself mentions that it's not available to Motorola devices.
Ok this may have been addressed and i am sorry if i missed it but i have searched. When first getting the nexus It would automatically backup my apps and settings. First couple roms i flashed did the same. Well lately it no longer does this. When flashing a Rom i have to pick a backup from over a month ago. Is this due to encryption being off? Or am i just missing something. Alot has changed in a month and i would like to get that feature back.

I had to set up my phone 3 separate times. First initial and was an idiot by taking a nice few hours meticulously setting up everything just find out unlocking and rooting would wipe.
2nd time was after I decided to unlock and root. Set everything up again. Still did not lose the option you talk about.
3rd time I decided to decrypt. Still was able to use it. So I don't think encryption has anything to do with it. Also the backup being used was from my last set up from my encrypted 2013 Moto X.
I think the backup for you got corrupted somehow and is no longer usable. Only thing I can think of really.
Near as I can tell, Google only does the backup if you are running the stock ROM. Not sure what's going on or why.
I have the same issue-I am using stock, rooted and un-encrypted and I had to setup my Nexus 6 a couple of times, since I did not root when I got it...but every time I did it only showed my Nexus 5 backup, Nexus 6 wasn't even on the list...I am not sure why and what is going on but it happened to me as well...
I just went to my Google Settings and it shows that it saved my Nexus 6 device so I am hoping this won't be a problem anymore...
How exactly do we access our old backups?
I have my nexus 6, and it is set to backup apps and data. But when I try fire up a moto x 2014 (lollipop) I have setting around the house, and try to start the device fresh....I only get the option to do "tap and go". I have no option, even if I skip this step and sign in, to access my backups and restore.
Am I missing something?
Thanks
in main settings, backup and reset, do you have backup my data, and automatic restore enabled?
Yes, I do. Could it be something with the moto X in particular? I am tempted to reset my nexus 6 and try it out, but I don't feel like spending the time required to get it how I like it, if it doesn't do the restore correctly.

no idea. every time i reset my n6 and want to restore, it always gives me options to restore nexus 5, nexus 7, or nexus 6 backups.
It gives me options from my one plus and nexus. But they're all old. It does not backup any new backups. Been about a month now.
I have this same problem my N6 has never backed up data. My N9 and my AOSP LG G3 both do just fine.
I have done clean installs probably about 10 times with my N6 so far. Never once has it backed up the data.
Clean flashed
Stock
Stock Based
and AOSP
So i logged into an M8 running LiquidSmooth 4.4.4 And when i wiped and cleaned flashed LiquidSmooth 5.0.1 for my nexus the backup from the M8 was there but not anything recent from my nexus.
BUMP.
My 100% stock ATT nexus 6 will not backup my google account info. App data, wifi passwords and such. The setting is on.
I go to restore on my HTC One m9 and no go. When I use the tap and go feature it has me log into my google account then makes me choose a backed up device or start clean. My nexus 6 is not there.
Hi all.
Yesterday I got my new OP3t to replace my S6 duos. As always I choose the restore option at the beginning of new phone configuration in order to restore apps and, mainly, to restore my saved Wi-Fi's. This days wifi passwords are a must
However, for the first time, the OP3t inicial config failed, then it started again, more than an hour on "adding finishing touches" and at the end no wifi configuration restored.
I did more than 20 attempts to restore, with factory reset, choosing different backup dates (and even different phones), but with the same result.
I also tried 3 different stock roms from OP3t download site.
Anyone with the same experience? Is there a way to force the restore after initial setup?

Are you joking mate??? 20 attempts you even reset a brand new device like 3x and all this crap for a feature that OnePlus does not have? Hey somethings are built into Samsung phones sorry . I know it sucks I miss somethings too but it's ok I always start fresh on a new device after all it is your NEW phone why have it set up like the old??

Hi Nano,
I don't think that's true. I already did this on a LG G5, on my Nexus 7, and other phones. The wifi passwords are stored on the google account (in google drive - I even can see the backup that says "settings, wifi passwords and others"). One time i even got the wallpaper from my old phone, but the wifis not.
When you setup yours, the setup process run smoothly? I had some issues, like the phone restart during the process (and started it again).

Hello, this function worked for me. Last time i did a factory reset, i've synced my contacts, wifi pass, etc with the phone. There must be an option for you to do that too. It even restored the wallpaper and the shortcuts on homescreen

well, today I tryed again, with a different OS version, and it almost worked. No issues on the setup process, the apps were downloaded (a bit slower but ok), the wallpaper and desktop icons, apps config... everything ok... but no wifi passwords ... the most important thing is missing.
Having the same thing here... Trying to restore data and apps from the Google backup of my S7 Edge, but it won't finish the process. I've had it hang at the final "just a sec", and I've had it reboot in the middle. I reflashed the official 4.0.3 OS (came out of the box with 3.5.4), so the core Android OS versions match between the new 3t and the S7e (both 7.0). About to just give up and set it up from scratch, but that's a real PITA given that I've never had to do that from any other phone. (I've chosen to do it in some cases, but I've never been forced to do so.)

So, I finally got mine to go through in terms of apps and their data, but it definitely didn't restore wifi AP info (i.e.- saved APs, pwds, etc). I'm open to the possibility that there is something to the idea that it's Samsung-specific, but I've never had a setup process be this janky. I did the factory wipe and setup about 10 times and even reflashed 4.0.3 to make sure something wasn't corrupted. It's hard for me to recall the exact steps that worked, but it basically all worked the same until the final setup screen where it gives you the option to do things like add more Gmail accounts, set up gestures, OK Google, Input methods, etc. If I recall, what worked was that I setup the input method & set up the gestures after which it rebooted on its own. When it came back up it took me to the same final setup screen where I chose the option to finish setup, and it took me and and proceeded to install the apps I'd chosen as part of the restore from the S7 Edge entry in my Google account.
I've had zero issues with the phone since, but WOW on the setup process. This is definitely a repeatable phenomenon with a Samsung phone backup and a new OP3t.
But.. did the wifi recover or not?
