Google services connectivity issues - Nexus S General

I did a search and I haven't found any info online. Within the past month or so, I have been getting google services connectivity issues where the colors on the bars switch on and off from white to green (meaning there is internet connectivity but no connection to google services). I don't get this problem when I am connected directly to wifi.
This is annoying because if I sign on gchat/gmail, there is a delay until I receive the updated information.
I was hoping that 2.3.4 would resolve this issue, but it still remains.
There is a thread going on about this issue where other people have reported seeing this:
http://www.google.com/support/forum...ad?fid=7c7a962fd3ae87e20004a26b2f3f005b&hl=en
Has anyone on the forums experienced this issue? Are there problems with the google services currently? Thanks in advance.

this also happens the other way around. i'm not connected to a phone service, but can see a signal, and when wifi is active and connected, the green signal bars turn green, even though 'no service' is displayed in the notifications.

I've noticed the same thing. Its been happening for the last few weeks.

I have experienced problems with the Google location services on 3G. Since I have gotten the Nexus S and am on 3G my location is always "temporarily not available" - 2.3.3, 2.3.4, various versions of Maps - no fix. Tried clearing out the data and cache in Google services framework, Maps - no go - still same problem.
WiFi and GPS are fine. Tomorrow I will go to service center and see if it is some how related to the phone or the carrier network..
Gmail and Talk seem to work ok....

I have the same problem, connection to google is lost when the phone sleeps and sometimes randomly. I have looked everywhere but can't find any fix or official response. This started around April 14.
This issue is so frustrating, it carries over from rom to rom, my phone is basically useless now!
I had to switch to regular voicemail, cause Google voice is so delayed, gmail and google talk are basically useless too.

Google Maps Affects Receiving Calls?

Has anyone else who has installed the latest version of Google Maps including the Latitude feature for seeing where your friends are had any problems with receiving calls?
I'm not 100% sure it is related but since installing it I have had loads of calls going straight to voicemail with my phone not ringing, sometimes I immediately got the text saying that someone had called but not left a message. It was usually fixed by me rebooting the phone, or making an outgoing call, but after a few hours it seemed to break again.
I have now uninstalled Google Maps and so far the problem has not reoccurred so I'm interested to see if anyone else has noticed this?
Not seen this at all and had Latitude installed since it was announced.
Hard to see why g maps could be causing the problem as it uses the gprs channels.
I suspect the problem might be you are running too many apps at once and then with g maps the memory usage is too much ?
if you are using GM on EDGE or 2G, and you have it running, you cannot have voice and data at the same tine coming through.
this is why 3G came by to allow data and voice simultaneously. no way you can have both on a 2G Network. And since GM will ALWAYS keep your Internet connection alive and transfer data, guess what? ur calls go to VM all the time

Network connection error - market and google.com

Pretty odd if you ask me, I haven't found anything similar with my searches.
Stock EVO
2.2
PRL 60670
PRI 1.40_003
Just did a wipe/factory reset. Did not have this issue before the wipe, and don't want to wipe again, just got done getting everything setup the way I wanted.
So here's the situation.
Basically it's somewhat random. Open Market First page loads(cached) but any other searches or categories give me an error "A network error has occurred".
I cancel that, jump back to browser, try a google search to test my 3g connection, one search may work, then I get network errors. But, when testing other websites, ala espn.com, it works fine. Go back to google, no dice.
I am then forced to reboot, or force close both Market and the Browser to be able to browse again. But as soon as I pull up Market, and get the error, I'm back to not being able to use google. It's very odd and random, and I feel like I'm going crazy. I've toggled radio, wifi etc to refresh 3g connection, does nothing.
I haven't installed anything new recently, no updates, etc. I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing issues. I have a co-worker having similar stuff with his hero, and another guy from this weekend had the network error in the market. We had 3 phones together, two got network error the other was fine.
It's been about 3-4 days of this.
If I missed some big issue, flame me and everything, I'm just tired of messing with it.
Thanks,
Laddy
holy moly, this just started happening to me today too. Tried several different roms. Several kernels. Reflashed the newest radio. did a ##768# and ##3282# reset.
You are correct, it is only google affiliated sites that aren't working and i didn't realize that until you pointed it out.
I access sprint sites fine. 3g stays connected with full signal at all times. At this point i can't even log into my google accounts to sync contacts and crap..... this is really irritating me. WTF is google doing?
Weirdness. I live in champaign illinois, where abouts are you? And what gives people? These roms i tried flashing of course have worked before, i am a very technical person and nothing on the phone itself has been messed up. Seems that google may be blocking the phone for some reason.

others are having this issue as well...
I am having the same issues, no google services work, that includes:
Google Talk
Gmail
Google Reader
Google Voice
pointing a browser at www.google.com
All other web surfing works fine, all other data works fine, full bars 3G
Tried factory data resets, 3 different roms
Flashed back to stock 2.2 still nothing.
I can't add Google accounts.
Sounds like basically no connection to any Google servers for any of their services.
Seems like its just through sprint though, maybe not, maybe sprints routers stopped routing traffic to Google for some reason.
I have searched the net all day and have been unable to find others with this issue, except for here.
Maybe it is just sprint.
Can any non-sprint users confirm there Google services working ok?
Thank god, I was going crazy trying to figure wtf was going on. No Idea how I missed that thread tho, feel free to close this one.

[Q] Anyone having problems connecting to any Google sites over 3G?

This evening over 3G I have been getting either no connection or VERY slow connections to anything Google, such as the Market, Google's homepage and the Gmail app. Other sites seem to load fine.. Is it just me?
I'm having the same issue - have a friend with this problem too. Started for me last night. Like you said just google sites over 3g.
Same issues here, 4G I believe also. REALLY cost me some time on my commute having to try over and over again to get some directions to a customer's house... Eventually nav did work (even maps was lagging badly), speed tests were 'ok'. Wierd thing is, both 3G and 4G SEEM to be affected, yet if I wifi to my clear connection at home its just fine (and clear blows, usually I'm using my phone on mobile AP to pay bills because comed doesn't work on clear's dirt-cheap chinese ip's). What's up sprint, why GOOGLE, an integral part of the OS would you throttle for god sakes. All speech-to-text operations fail as well as they timeout.
Are you all stock?
stock rom, but rooted
Yeah same problems here I thought it was juat me
I've got the same issue, Can't download anything from market and can't log into any google services such as gtalk however I do have access to gmail.
I've rooted my phone and running xtreme kernel and epic experience and this has been happening since yesterday.
I can tell you it doesn't seem to just be the epic. I was on my friend's droid and it just seemed butt slow. Well then again, it's a verizon droid too...
I did have a problem with gmail earlier- had to clear out gmail storage/cache and re sync, which fixed it.. Or it just came back by then...
I'm surprised to see this post because I thought my browser was f'd up also. But I guess its just something wrong network wise.
r0cky.Da.3v0.SU
Still can't load Google.com but other sites (such as this one, I'm responding via the phone on 3G now) are fine. I can't pin point if its just stock people, rooted people, Epic or EVO people either.. a stock EVO next to me has no problems connecting to Google services. Very strange..
Looks like its not just me either. Maybe Sprint is upgrading their towers or something? I wish they'd tell us these things so we don't go through ridiculous troubleshooting measures for nothing on our phones..

Sprint often seems to have connectivity issues specific to Google services. Couple weeks back when I still had my Evo... I was having issues signing in to google talk. I proved it was on Sprint's end by using Connectbot to create a proxy to mtalk.google.com:5228 and adding an entry for it in /etc/hosts. This fixed the issue completely. Sprint wouldn't admit anything.
Looks like we're back here in Kentucky - it was a data problem on the Sprint side! I'm glad THAT debacle is over, heh.

[Q] can't reach Google through Now voice search

I've been having this problem for the last week or so, just jow it's starting to really get on my nerves. Whenever I open up Google now and try to make a voice search either by saying Google or by taking the mic, I get this error message a few seconds later. I've tried it in 3 different wifi connections and it never works but when I try on my 3g data connection it works perfectly. I've cleared the data from Google play services once and I have no idea what the problem could be anymore. Any help would be appreciated.

bump help please
Had the same problem in Google translate, updating the app seemed to fix it. Don't know about the wifi/3g issue though!

Google apps can't connect over wifi

Hi all, I'm stuck with a problem with my S4 that's been plaguing me for a while but has got a lot worse since my upgrade to KitKat. Put simply I can't connect to Google services over wifi, whether that's GMail, Google Play, Google Music or any other service via a Google app. Other apps are fine and if I switch of wifi I can connect over 3G with no problems.
I'm stumped and (ironically) Google can't help me. Apart from using 3G any time I want to use a Google app on my phone, can anyone suggest either a solution or something that can help me work out what's going on?

Hy there
It's a server/internet setting. In my school I also can't connect to google services, that depends on the network. Maybe contact your administrator or look what could be the problem in your network
