Orange signal and wifi icon - G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have my moto g for 2 months or so, and three days ago the data and wifi icons became orange in the quick settings menu. Is anyone else facing this problem in their moto g's? I have perfect wifi connection and data btw.
I have already rebooted the phone with no luck. I read somewhere that it is an issue with google servers, but I haven't found a solution yet.
Also I am running stock 4.4.4 in latin america. No root

It's not an issue. It means you're connected fine with 3G/wifi but not connected to google servers. It's nothing to care about

Sorry for bothering, but how do I connect back to the google servers? Thanks in advance.

internet access issues

so for apparently no reason today my internet stopped connecting. When I go to connect it says -
Dialed: wap.cingular
it says underneath it there is no modem at the above number.
ummm.... I didn't change anything in my setting but for some reason it won't connect to the 3G network. Any ideas here or do we know whats going on?

OK check this
START/SETTING/CONNECTIONS/MANAGE EXISTING CONNECTIONS/PROXY SETTINGS
and make sure that there is not a Check in the box next to :
THIS NETWORK USES A PROXY SERVER TO CONNECT TO THE INTERNET
This should do the trick I hope.
This always happens to me.
didnt work
no dice. its still giving me the same bounce back message that theres no modem at the above number. do i need to put a proxy server in the proxy server field? by the way this is a Tilt.
What program is trying to access the internet when this happens?
The same problem is occuring for me. I tried what Vol22002 suggested, but still can't connect. I was trying to access Internet Explorer.
Me Too - Atlanta
First thing this morning I tried to access the Internet with Opera and got the "Dialed: wap.cingular Cannot connect for unknown reason. ..." error. No recent changes to phone configs or software, worked fine after midnight last night. Power cycled and checked the usual stuff, still no data connection regardless of program.

After not working from 0700 to 1050, I 'suddenly' have a working data connection. Go figure.
You'll probably find that this happens when your network is down. This happens very occasionally here and then I call my service provider to confirm this.

I would say that is the most common reason for the problem the OP is having.
the netowrk isn't down....
My dad's phone (not a tilt) is connecting to the 3G network completely fine. I can't access the internet through any program...internet explorer, opera, google maps, livesearch, the weather tab on my today screen...nothing. I'm at a loss right now.

So Disable the Proxy.
still nothing...with or without the proxy on.
I've been having problems with my data connection and phone service dropping out for the last 2 weeks even though I have changed nothing on the phone. I see an x by data connection and exclamation point by phone. I'm using Dutty's 6.1 official release and radio 1.58.26.20. Usually I can get back service by turning on and off airport mode, and the problem is very sporadic. Usually only when I really need the phone to work! Sometimes just switching between GSM and Auto mode for 3G will provide a temporary fix. I just tried disabling the HSDPA, and we'll see if that helps in a more permanent way. I wonder if AT&T is kicking people off of its network that are using HSDPA before it is supposed to be available. I called AT&T about the issue (w/o mentioning the cooked ROMs or HSDPA and they say I should return the phone for warranty but I don't want the hassle of restoring the old ROM. Any ideas?
is everyone posting here with issues from ATL? I am and have had the same, figured its just a radio issue and have been too lazy to change radios...for those that aren't lazy, i'd try that...
nope, I'm in Oregon. I'm of the opinion that AT&T has changed something about how they run their phone and data networks (perhaps in preparation for the 2nd gen iphone and HSDPA) that is randomly kicking people off their network.

There goes the iPhone messing with Smartphones again. First changes what a Smartphone should be. NOW messing with the network. Hulk Mad!
Nope its not just AT&T im experiencing the same problem over in the UK. Now my proxy is disabled and I know I have all the correct settings but still the error message "unable to connect to the receiving modem." It seems to have no pattern for this happening con we get correlation on what ROM's & radios everyone are using to see if its that

[Q] Okay, I did search the forum but...

...I don't know if the problems are the same and apply to me.
Okay, I rooted the phone and upgraded to cyanogenmod 6...everything worked great (had a few bumps down the road but fixed them and continued on the way). I got passed the g1 splash screen and into the google sign in screen. I sign in but it doesn't connect to servers. I have data and am connected to wifi.
Did I do something wrong? What can I do to pass this?
I searched every where before I decided to post so please if you think that this is a repeat of an older thread, I'm sorry, that was not my intention.
Please help me.
Which vendor? T-Mobile? AT&T?

T-mobile...
this is what it says exactly "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server".
Don't know if it helps.
Thanks
Sound like you do not have a reliable DATA connection. Do you see the EDGE, 3G, etc...?

I don't see the 3G sign but I do see the wifi connection sign, and I do have connection to it...maybe it's not that strong? I'm currently using a wifi spot and am not at home, but shouldn't the 3G just cover where ever I am sorta speak?
you should also activate:
Settings->Account & sync : both background data and auto-sync
try this! i had the same problem times ago

Concur with P4p3r1n0. Also, make sure that your APN setting is there and correctly filled out.
That should have done the trick, where you able to fix it??

[Q] Note and Idea GPRS/3G Kerala India

Hi all,
Is there anyone here using a Galaxy Note with Idea in Kerala (specifically Trivandrum)?
I am having real trouble connecting to Idea's GPRS net, with the Note insisting that it cannot connect to the network (data only - voice works perfectly).
This happens with both the E (GPRS?) and H (3G?) data indicators. The arrows either remain dark, or the down arrow remains orange (up arrow green). Is this normal?
I have downloaded and installed all the configuration messages sent to me by Idea when I first inserted my SIM.
I currently have four listed access points:
idea_gprs
idea_internet
idea_mobile
idea_mms
No matter which one I select to use, the Note keeps insisting there is a network error.
So I cannot use Google Maps for driving directions, or even Voice Talk in driving mode, because I keep getting the message:
"Cannot connect to server. Please check your network settings and try again" in a dialog box on the Voice Talk screen which takes me to the network settings.
This is especially true in Voice Talk.
Please help.
I've faced this issue a few times on idea kerala network usually between 11 30 pm and 2 am. It's a network issue. you simply have to wait it out , in a few hours it will start working again.
I think idea's apn is "internet" not "idea_internet"... change the settings and try again...
have you tried it with other networks providers? check if 3g is working to make sure this issue is not phone specific.
Thing is, the connectivity has been spotty at best, but since the past couple of days, I have not been able to connect at all.

Samsung Voice Talk
Right.
As far as I can see, Samsung Voice Talk is the only app that regularly has trouble with Idea's GPRS/3G.
Generally service is so poor and connectivity so slow that I initially thought it was a device issue.
However, on further investigation, I find that Voice Talk, while it works perfectly on WiFi, will not do so on GPRS/3G.
Everything else connects with blazing slowness, thanks to Idea.
The one constant is that whenever I try to use Voice Talk under Idea, it immediately throws the error:
"Unable to connect to server. Please check your connection settings and try again."
This dialog box has a button to the connectivity settings menu.
However, no matter what connection I choose out of idea_gprs, idea_internet and idea_mobile, Voice Talk continues to throw the same error.
Any ideas?
I am thinking maybe delete and re-install all the Idea APN's.
Anything else I should/could try?
Thanks in advance for all your help.

I'm having major WiFi problems.

I can't stop having WiFi problems with this phone. My internet is perfectly fine. I've never had WiFi problems on any other android phone, and even an iPhone. Images or screenshots in the play store don't load at all. No matter what I do I cannot get them to load. I take off WiFi and they load fine. I go on my moms G2 to test the play store and it's fine on hers, and same with my brothers. Computers are fine. I've even tried to connect to the few websites they allow at school on their network and they either take forever to load or sometimes I get network errors. I literally don't know what to do. I thought it was a custom rom issue but now I'm restored back to stock and it's still a problem. Instgram connection will time out when refreshing, chrome doesn't load pages, twitter cant refresh, and more. On BlissPop I would turn WiFi off and back on and it wouldnt show my connection again until I rebooted. I dont know if that was a problem with the rom, but it was happening. Any ideas what's wrong? I'm clueless as of know. Don't know what to do anymore.

5G WiFi or just normal 2.4G? There are several known issues with the N6 on 5G WiFi.

2.4G. I found that article a couple days ago. My routers WiFi is 2.4G so I changed my WiFi to connect to only 2.4G in settings, and it's not fixing the problem.

Try changing the channel if you have that option available.

From what I've read, it says to avoid channels 12 and 13 on 2.4G.

download wifi analyzer from the play store, it will suggest the best channel so you aren't running into your neighbors wifi
I'm having exactly the same issue. When I picked up my N6 at the AT&T store the setup failed on their wifi, but worked fine once I used LTE instead. I'm having the same issue everywhere, though -- wifi doesn't work 99% of the time. The Play Store will load app names, but the images never show up. Play Music hangs while trying to download songs, etc. Turn off wifi and immediately everything starts loading at the expected near-instant speed.
I've tried reflashing 5.0 (how it came out of box) and 5.0.1, same issue. My wifi is dual band, and neither 2.4 nor 5 ghz works. I've tried it at my parents' house too, which is 2.4-only (and I did the network layout and setup) but still no dice.
If nobody can suggest a course of action I'll be taking the phone back to the AT&T Store tomorrow as a dud. Basically I just wanted to confirm that this isn't some documented software bug that'll be patched soon.

Cellular Connected but No Internet (17.0240.2007.27)

Version : WW-17.0240.2007.27, non-root
Hey everyone, I have been using the latest firmware of the ROG Phone 2 as they release from the Asus website, the latest firmware has been fine although suddenly the cellular data has stopped working, (besides some apps I.e Spotify recognises a data connection and can stream any cached songs). The icon shows the 4G+ but with the X for No Internet. Phonecalls and MMS work fine.
Update 6/8/20 (temporary-solution found!)
From some playing around I found a solution that seemed to fix it for me.
1. Turn the phone off
2. Remove the SIM card tray
3. Turn the phone on (Without the sim card tray inserted)
4. Re-insert the sim card tray after the phone is all properly loaded
Update: 9/8/2020
Cellular stopped working again
Did you check the APN setting?

Yeah everything was configured correctly
Did you set private DNS? I experienced I set private DNS to block some of ads, and the DNS server suddenly down which cause no internet but the signal still show 4G+.
Same problem as you.
Hey there,
I am having the same problem as you as well. After i had updated to the latest, my internet has stop working. It shows 4g,but with an x below. However, i am able to use sms, and phonecalls. I tried toggling the mobile data, it worked for a while. But after a few mins, it went back to the same. Any way to go back to the previous update, please help.

No, I haven't setup my DNS with the private DNS feature but the Wifi menu, and I'm not sure if that even applies to cellular data anyway.
