Chrome to Phone working after OTA?

Mine isn't, can you guys check to see if yours is? Foxtophone or chrometophone aren't work for me. I've tried various fixes (rebooting etc) to no avail.
Stock Evo on new .5 ota.
sent from my iEvo6G

Mine isnt either... didnt even notice until I saw this

Mine magically started working yesterday after not working for about a week.

Just read this, tried it and went right threw no problem..check to see if the app is still installed on your phone

Working fine here. Stock OTA a few days ago, and OMJ rom works too.

Working just fine here too. Stock with OTA

app works normally.
stock, unrooted and froyo'ed, latest update....

Worked for me last night, stock updated.

I had to uninstall and reinstall from the market for it to work again after the update fyi.

As i said over in the cyanogen forum:
I would like to say the solution i utilized was as follows:
- Log out of respective browser's extension (Chrome, in my case)
- In browser, log in on a *different* gmail account (e.g. Borrowed my lover's gmail account and password)
-- Note: Do not change settings in/on phone's chrome-to-phone
- Send X page to phone (though it will tell you there is no phone associate with that account)
- Log out
- Log in, on browser, under the account you *really* want to utilize.
Again, this is what fixed it for me.
Ciao - IPvirus

[Q] Market not working

My uncle also bought himself a Wildfire, set it up and everything went fine.
So we went ahead, made a WiFi connection, and tried to download something from the market, this is where things went bad.
I know you need to log in with your gmail account, as I own a wildfire myself and everything went flawlessly there.
Somehow neither his gmail account, nor mine, works as a login and it just returns a 'Service unavailable'. So we thought it might be the wifi connection and tried at my place.
There it didnt work either.. Im stunned, mine just worked out of the box, nothing to set up only login etc. and I just dont know what to do anymore.
I hope anyone can help!

Try a reset to factory defaults by using the clear storage option in settings and see how that goes.

Will try that as soon as I see him.
In the meantime, if anyone has any alternatives, please post!

You can try Apktor.

If the Wildfire is in a non-english language, try changing it to english (in settings), go into market just for one time to accept the market terms of use. And if that works, you can switch back to the lang you used before.

Thanks for all the advices! Ill keep them in mind when facing a similar problem!
However, doing a factory reset sorted out everything just fine.

[Q] account(s) lost

I've been having a problem with losing my accounts. CM7, emmc, today's nightly, but it's been happening for a couple of weeks.
The most visible symptom is that the WiFi indicator goes white. WiFi itself is working just fine, but I can't access my Google account for Contacts or Market. I use K-9 with gmail, and that still works (different protocol and authentication method).
Has anybody else been seeing this? If so, what do you do about it?
Contacts shows my non-Google contacts, Market (new version, which might be significant, see below) tells me that I have to sign in first, but silently closes when I tap on the button to do so.
Settings/Accounts shows me some random subset of my other accounts (Facebook, LinkedIn), and when I try to add an account from there, it doesn't present me with the option of adding a Google account, just Corporate (Exchange), and whichever of Facebook or LinkedIn are still present.
The solution that works best so far is to re-install gapps and go through the sign-in procedure again. The WiFi indicator goes green and all is well. I tried removing /data/system/accounts.db and rebooting (a hint from a possibly-irrelevant thread), but that didn't really fix the problem.
The really weird thing is that I installed the new Market a week or so ago, but reflashing gapps doesn't blow it away, even though the gapps .zip (20110613) contains a smaller Vending.apk than the new Market zip does. I tried to uninstall Market (!) so the next time I reflash gapps I'd get the old one back, and it was willing to uninstall Market's "updates", which appears to have reverted Market to the gapps zip version, after one FC, without requiring a reboot.
Unfortunately, I can't remember whether this was happening before I installed the new Market. I should keep a log...
Thanks for any help you can render!

Could that be behind proxy causing those problems?

I don't think so; there's certainly no explicit proxying going on here. Our corporate firewalls can be interesting, but I'm connected to an unsecured access point for use by visitors. Also, it's not a solid failure; things work fine until they don't.
It doesn't really act like a network problem; if a corporate firewall can remove my Google account from Settings/Accounts, we have serious security issues.
BTW, jazzbass12 has reported what looks like the same problem in this post. The solutions proposed there don't seem to work for me.

I don't recall not able access gmail or not but when I'm at work and using unsecured access point for visitor (just like your company), I cannot download or install any app successfully, they all queue up and do nothing until I go home and using my home network. Wifi indicator shows white vs green? Is that it?

Right, I get a white indicator but (new) Market stuff doesn't queue up, it tells me to log in, but fails when I let it try. I think that this hasn't happened with the old Market, but I can't prove that yet. Which Market app are you running?
My other clues are that Settings/Accounts doesn't show Google or let me add one, and the Google Contacts are missing; the rest of the contacts are there.

Still using the old Market, haven't updated yet.

[Q] TouchNooter: Where is YouTube?

I have tried rooting my NST using TouchNooter 1.11.20 following instructions here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1343143
But, I do not see YouTube app or anyhing like that. There is Gmail, but no YouTube, where I should sign in.
What am I missing?

Nevermind, I found the YouTube app, but I still cannot get Market working -I am getting "A server error has occured" message. YT and Gmail work.
Any ideas what might be wrong?

If you check in on the TouchNooter 1.11.20 thread over in the development forum, you'll see that this seems to be a common problem. It appears based on those postings that the Market app will start working after a certain time (overnight?), assuming everything else is correct.
I've discovered that you can get into the Market without waiting by adding a SECOND account. (In Gmail, click into the settings from ButtonSavior, then click accounts, and there'll be a button to add one.)
I discovered this by accident trying to set things up for my wife. I thought there was a problem because she did not have a Youtube account set up through her Google Apps account. So I went ahead & added my account to the NST to make sure the rooting process had worked, and lo and behold there was the Market. Now I needed to figure out how to delete my account (which I still haven't figured out how to do!), but in the process of researching that, I ran across this business with a delay for the market to start working.
I then wiped out my NST and went back to the backup I made before I started all this (version 1.1) so I could try again with a different account.. and a third time too, just to make sure with a different order of accounts. It was consistent: the first account gives the "server error" message when opening Market; the second goes right in.
Now I just need to figure out how to get rid of one of the accounts that's set up. Anybody know that one? If the "Accounts & Sync" setting I'm used to in stock Android is there, it's well-hidden. (For that matter I'd like to get rid of Gmail... or at least not have it auto-sync.)

Slartiwhatever,
thanks for your comment, registering second account and syncing it fixed my problem too! I do not really mind having two accounts set up, so this works well enough for me.

[Q] Google+ "Can't Connect to Server"

Anyone on here ever have trouble using the G+ app after flashing a new ROM and then backing up with TB? I'm having this issue on my Nexus S & 10, but my 7 is mysteriously fine...can't figure out why and there are no solutions online that work. I've turned 2 step authentication off, removed my Google account and then signed back in, rebooted, uninstalled and reinstalled, and checked my Wifi Settings...nothing has worked. This issue is driving me insane.

I'm having the same problem, except its with my Nexus 7. Rooted with TWRP, been running CleanROM3.0 for a while now, but installed Cyanogenmod 10.1 nightly (31/01/13) today. Restored apps using Titanium but some would not restore, including Youtube and Google+. Upon installing Google+ I got the error message "Cannot connect to Server".
I have since, wiped cache, wiped dalvik, formatted internal data, removed all of my google accounts (had two other accounts on there that I had not signed up to google+ with) and added my main one again - but still can't sign in to G+. Also saw other fixes online such as updating your location and time/date settings, but did not work. I've uninstalled and reinstalled G+ about 6000 times today I think. I finally managed to sign into a 2.0 version of the Google+ app that I found online, and then tried updating to the latest in the Play Store, but it did not display the update option, and when I uninstalled and reinstalled, again I couldn't sign in. Thinking of going back to stock, re rooting and installing Cyanogenmod when I get home - but if you discover any other fixes in the meantime please let me know!
Thanks,

I finally got it to work. Here's how I did it:
Wipe your device, flash whatever ROM you use, flash GAPPS, login using your Google account (do it manually) and then when you boot up TB install everything as you usually do, but don't restore system settings or any of the google apps (no G+, Wallet, etc) install those manually using the Play store. If what I did actually made it work, then you shouldn't have any problems using G+.

I'm having this issues also, thanks for the help!
Edit
-Still, it does not work. I wiped, flashed a ROM, ignore titanium backup, login and installed Google+ from playstore but it really does not work When I open the app, it just lead me to a white background then google+ does not load. The same as messenger app.

I'm out of ideas :/

I'm a little late to the party, but is there any chance any of you have tried chameleon launcher or any other app that may be able to access Google+?
I just installed Chameleon launcher on my phone and set up the Google+ widget that Chameleon has built in and when I granted it access is when my Google+ app stopped working. I had to uninstall it reinstall and set up the widget again and then deny access to get it working again. I know it's a long shot but it just may help.

Solution
I've had the same problem - I hope my solution might help some of you:
In my case the problem was AdAway (especially the "hostsx_googlecode_com/svn/trunk/hosts"-source) after deleting this source and refreshing AdAway the problem was gone...

I had this problem recently while trying to install Android 4.3 on my Int'l Galaxy Nexus (maguro). What I did to fix it was log on to Google Dashboard from my computer and click on Security. While under Security, I scrolled down to Connected Sites and clicked on Review Permissions. At the next screen, revoke the permissions of all apps at the top of the list that pertain to Android (or at least the ones granted permissions since you broke whatever you did). Once you've done this, you should be able to login to Google+ (or Hangouts if that's where your trouble lies) without any trouble. I've messed this up twice in the last day or so and this fix has got me back on track both times.

One solution for stock Nexus 7
I know this is an old thread but want to share a possible solution to help others Googling for help like I was.
I'm on Nexus 7 2013 with multiple users (AKA profiles). I had the same error "Can't connect to server" with Google+. Hangouts and Gmail apps logged in fine. Other user was fine using Google+ the whole time.
What worked for me:
* Open Photos app.
* Click OK on auto-backup.
* Open Google+ app. Select account to sign in with (if you have more than 1 Google accounts like me)
Really, I don't know why auto-backup was ever turned off, maybe an update to the Photos app. My guess is the Photos app was locking access to Google+ while waiting for me to choose yes or no on the auto-backup.
What didn't work:
* Unchecking, rechecking Sync with Google+.
* Restarting.
* Clearing Google+ app cache and data.
Tech details of Nexus 7:
* Stock Android 4.4.3.
* Build KTU84L.
