has anyone noticed this? ~i will try to stream any youtube video and then my mobile network cuts out and the 3g up arrow stays colored in for a while. this also happens with downloads, sprint tv, anything pulling a lot of data, and also Wireless Tethering. I've tried Purehero rom, darchdroid, fresh 2.1, and i've wiped and flashed. i've also tried different radios and still the same thing keeps happening. I'm thinking of calling Sprint but they probably wont be able to help me. but i know someone here may know a thing or two.
Just wondering if anyone else is having problems with the market place this morning?
I've got 4 apps that have updates, and when I try to go to update them, it loads for a while and then says that the windows live id service is not available at the moment.
Trying to figure out if it's a problem with my phone / network / account, or a general server issue?
I've already soft-reset the phone a couple of times and no difference.
Last week, my Hero suddenly stopped being able to see my home network. All the other networks around me are visible, but not my home network. I tried the Wi-Fi FXR app on the market, but that didn't work at all. Did a full wipe and installed a fresh new ROM, and I *still* can't see my network. Even manually entering the info for it did nothing.
I can connect to other networks on my Hero, and all my other devices at home can see and connect to my network perfectly fine. Does anybody have any idea what else I can try? Having tried a different ROM and a full wipe of everything, I'm at a loss now.
Edit: Tried actually *formatting* system/data/cache, then installing a different ROM (CM6 this time). Still no luck. My home network never shows up on the list, but all others do. Rebooted my modem and router, even changed the security to just WEP (was WPA2 before, which worked just fine before this randomly happened). I can't understand how, without doing anything, my Hero just suddenly refuses to see my wireless network. It can't just suddenly be incompatible with my router after working just fine with dozens of ROMs and a couple years under their belt.
i feel your pain
when i turn on wifi on my hero, no matter what rom it is, i can see all the other access points right away. but my ssid wont pop up, i have to wait a good 3 minutes until it pops up and connects. have you tried waiting longer for it to show up? worth a shot.
I tried letting it sit for at least 5-10 minutes. I'll let it sit next to my router for a longer time and see if that does anything.
I let it sit for a few hours, but nothing popped up. Tried a few hours with and without the network being manually saved for connecting to. Definitely something odd going on here. Also tried connecting to other networks to see if maybe it'd do something, but that didn't make my home network show up either. I'm at a dead-end here, and I assume the lack of replies means nobody else has any other ideas either... lol.
the only thing i can tell you is ruu that sucker, usually when something goes haywire stock will fix it. hope you get it working, sounds like a major pain
edit: if your up to it, flash a stock rom from clockworkmod recovery and try it before going the ruu route, its worth a shot. i see you tried cyanogenmod, couldnt hurt to try a stock rom.
Thanks, I forgot about that. After so many Android phones, I start to forget which tricks fix which phones... lol. Currently I'm used to "Superwipe your phone if anything goes wrong". Unfortunately, I know of no such thing for the Hero.
But running an RUU is a great idea, and I should've thought of it. I'll be doing that out as soon as I get off work
Edit: Just installed an official RUU successfully, but... still can't find my wireless network. Seriously... I have no idea how that couldn't work. The router is fine, the phone is fine, and they've communicated with each other just fine for the last two years. Nothing has changed for this to happen. For as complete a wipe as installing an RUU does, this just doesn't make any sense.
Try changing your router to chanel 11. Then in your hero WiFi settings make sure its on 11 as well. See if that helps.

Have you checked the settings on your router? It may be that somehow your router blocks your Mac address or something like that.

I've been running Android-Wifi-Tether version 3.3 beta 2 on my rooted D4 with JB without a problem until just recently. I successfully used it just last weekend without a problem. However, when I tried to use it just a couple days ago, it wouldn't broadcast for some reason. I couldn't pick up its signal on any of my laptops or other phones and the data counters never updated. I tried changing the device profile, changing some settings here and there, but nothing seemed to fix it. There are no errors shown in the logs, either. I tried uninstalling the app and reinstalling it, but that didn't do anything either. I'd really like to avoid re-flashing my phone just to get the wifi tether working again. I can't think of anything that changed in the past week that could have affected this, either. I didn't install any apps, I didn't change any system settings, it just suddenly stopped working.
Does anybody have any idea what this could be?
Several months ago I installed CM10 on my Nook HD+ and for the most part everything runs perfectly.
However in mid March I installed a Cyanogen update and very soon after I noticed many of my apps (all downloaded from Amazons app of the day) would not run, giving me the following error:
Internal Service Error: An internal error occurred. This can be caused by a lack of network connectivity, please make sure you have a good network connection.
At the time, I Googled and tried the suggestions I found (although the suggestions were all for other devices such as Kindle Fire). I checked the time and date were correct, deregistered and reregistered my device and tried rebooting.
And that seemed to fix the issue, although I concede I havent been using the Nook much lately.
Tonight I went to use my Nook to play a few games and the problem is back and its even worse now. I now cannot play any of my games, even ones I have played numerous times before without any wifi turned on. We dont have wifi at home, I tether my phone when I want to use the internet on my Nook. I do know there are some games that require internet access, however the vast majority of mine dont, which I know for a fact as I've played them so often with no internet.
So, why all of a sudden, does everything need wifi? How can I fix this? Is it just coincidence the problem occurred immediately after a system update, and if it could be the update that caused it, how can I find out which update it was and can it be uninstalled?
The instances of this I found mentioned online mainly referred to it happening to just one app, and some people found uninstalling and reinstalling the app fixed the issue. But I have close to 200 apps all doing this.
Since I mainly use the Nook for playing these games, its useless to me as it is now and if I cant fix this issue I wont have any choice but to remove the Mod and return it to stock software, which I really dont want to have to do.
Please can someone help me with this, in basic, non-technical language please?
Thank you.
Hello?
Please, does anyone have any input on this problem? Have I asked in the wrong forum?
I asked about this in another forum and it was suggested that maybe the update made my Nook appear like a new device to Amazon and that the error message is the games wanting to confirm with Amazon that the license to run the game was correct (or something along those lines).
I have just tried uninstalling and reinstalling a couple of games and now they work so it would appear that suggestion is exactly what has happened. So I guess I now have to uninstall and redownload all those 200+ apps and games, which is going to be a nightmare with no internet at home.
And if updates cause the device to appear different, then how do I know this wont keep happening with future updates? I am not going to keep reinstalling every thing, so do I just turn updates off instead? That doesnt seem like a very wise idea.
I would really appreciate some help with this please, or even just to be pointed in the right direction if I should be asking elsewhere.
Thank you.
Well I guess no one has any advise or help of any kind to offer. I will post this update in case anyone else has the same issue.
I ended up having to uninstall and redownload every one of my apps, and now they all work fine again, so I can only assume the suggestion I received on a different forum that the update made my device appear as a new device, meaning the internet was needed for the apps to check licenses with Amazon was correct.
With this in mind, I would now never recommend the Cyanogen mod to any one else. Whats the point if updates are going to screw everything like this? I have now turned off the updates, which I would normally never do. When my Nook gets to the stage of having to have updates I will uninstall Cyanogen and just go back to using a stock Nook.
Its a shame as I have been very happy with it up until all this happened but since there is no back up or support from anyone when things go wrong, its simply not worth the hassle.
