My daughter has been playing cut the rope without internet connection. But this week she started the game and says "internet connection needed".
this the paid app from amazon marketplace and not rooted, any solutions?
I've gotten this message with some apps myself even though I've had them open previously without a wifi connection. Opening them with the wifi connected fixes it for the time being and I'm able to play without internet again.

Might be similar to xbox live games requiring Internet connection to play them on the 360 Probably their way of preventing piracy. Just a thought.

Might be an in app update or additional content needed thats online. Usually if you update or run it with WiFi itll be good till the next update.

So I tried the wireless tethering built into CM 6.1 this week and it's awesome! However, I noticed that my data widget added a 3rd line marked T (the other two are W(ifi) and C(ell)...) it still shows 0bytes next to it though, so obviously it knew that I had activated the tether feature since it added the T line to the data counters, but since it didn't count any of that data in my data usage tracking does that mean I'm okay and AT&T can't see it? I don't want to incur additional charges for tethering. It's cool, but not THAT cool!
No they can't track it.
Cool, thanks.
This Is cool. I been messing around wwith it a lot. I tether wifi to my Xbox via network adapter. I can join live download updates and Facebook. Even voice chat but it wont even try to join a mw2 map. Just loads and loads. Something with Nat u belive but no one here can fix it.

Not really sure why this doesn't work. Are you joining a game or creating a game? I can see it not working if you're creating a game perhaps. By default, you can't even ping the phone's IP address which is a big issue if you're going to host anything (it's totally unreachable).
But, I have actually tethered my PC and played Left 4 Dead 2 without a hitch. All NAT does is route the client's IP to the hosts' IP (to the outside world). You shouldn't have to have the XBOX NAT'ed to join a game at all.. and if you do, well shame on Microsloth...
"If you are using a NAT or firewall, you will need to open (forward) two ports for incoming traffic if you are going to host games. If you are not going to host games, you may or may not need to open these ports, depending on how your NAT works. You will need to consult your NAT documentation for information for how to open (forward) ports."
We cannot forward ports at this time... it may be possible sometime with 3rd party software though. But like I said, you shouldn't have an issue just simply joining a game. Once a connection is established from your end, port forwarding is not an issue. Port forwarding is only for incoming traffic trying to establish a connection (for a server).
Ya I just try to join. Maybe it matters depending on edge or 3g? The reason I thought Nat was because I got message says Nat is not open and may make your experience not as good or what ever.

Is there a way to verify this? 911jason says his widget isn't picking up data usage while tethered, but I just tried both tethering and wifi hot spot and using 3G Watchdog, it most definitely showed usage on both.
It uses your data it just don't show up to at&t as tethered. Just like using it on your phone

Little help?
Okay, so I tried tethering and wifi hotspot for the first time today, just to check them out. Now when I connect to my computer and turn on USB storage, the drive doesn't show up. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
*EDIT* Restarting my computer did nothing, but restarting my phone seems to have fixed the problem. Weird.

Yea I had the same issue...so i decided i'd try what used to work -- swiftp...but that didn't work either...then i just gave up. Then I was like..well **** I can just use dropbox...so did that for a while then plugged my into my computer to see if it was working again and sure enough it was LOL
since i have installed Remote media from the market to stream media to my ps3 my home wifi start crashing. i have removed the app from my DHD and have reconfigured my wirless router but every time i connect to my wifi with the phone the network crash. can someone help me?
the network crash
Click to expand...

What exactly do you mean with network crash?
What exactly happens to the other PCs in the network?
Just a guess, but it probably the firewall getting overloaded. I got the same on mine when downloading torrents. Try turn it off and see if it helps.
I have been downloading alot of p2p data on my LTE plan, I have noticed every once in a while the internet connection completely stops even though I have 4 bars of LTE signal. Turning mobile data on and off does not solve it and activating then deactivating aeroplane mode sometimes works. Rebooting the phone always works. I have noticed it usually cuts off after downloading a lot of data via utorrent however a few times it cuts off without this condition being met. This phenomenon is one I have noticed only after using my phone for very large data downloads, I've been using my phone for a few months now without this issue.
I am using a GT-I9505 model which is rooted and has the google edition 4.4.2 installed.
What could be the problem and how do I fix it?
Many thanks.

Maybe your operator is blocking p2p ?

I highly doubt it, p2p traffic is blocked on my network anyway however I use a VPN to mask all my data, and when it cuts off it is not just p2p but all data even after VPN has been turned off. I also called them and asked whether there is any sort of fair usage policy which applies to my contract which may throttle my data and there is absolutely not. I think it is an issue with the phone.

Try download some large files in stock browser or like install a big game in play store to see if your connection gets killed due to over amount of data stream or not.
If connection maintains in play store or stock browser downloading but got killed in p2p , I'd say it's related to it, it's very reasonable they do it, lots operator all over the world blocks it...

Hello there all around.
Maybe already someone mentioned earlier...
Can't Downloading some games ( I presume big files) from store, it gives error - waiting for network, or not shown at all progres, or king of pending procedure. I'm feeding shield with Hotspot from phone, but I know definitely my provide have no restrictions, coz downloading constantly torrent, movies, big files etc on pc and phone it self on same network. I tried all kind of tests clear Google play store cash/ data, reset factory device all this things and non of them helps. Should I go and rooted and edit host file or any kind suggestions? Any other suggestions very appreciated.

I had the EXACT same problem. I was using my phone as a hotspot, and certain apps would download just fine, but one in particular, Minecraft Story Mode, just kept showing "waiting for network". The only way I got through it was to take my Shield to work. I plugged it into my ethernet at the office and it downloaded just fine.
I agree with you that the hotspot shouldn't have anything to do with it, but it seems it does. I tried clearing data in google play, clearing it in google play services, uninstalling updates, etc. In my research I found that when Sprint first rolled out the first 4G network in the U.S., people were having the same problem with the play store. It has to be something about the traffic. The only thing I would suggest is try a VPN with your hotspot if you absolutely can't get to a place with WiFi or ethernet.

For what it's worth, I found some other people having a similar problem. But unlike us, they weren't tethered. https://forums.geforce.com/default/...few-apps-not-installing-waiting-for-network-/
May be a problem with the shield after all...

Not sure if it's connected but the same thing happens on my Sony 2015 Android TV (permanently connected via cable to a perfectly working NAT router). The Play app received a major redesign recently but still seems to have its quirks.
The thread /r/AndroidTV/comments/3r572z mentions it as a bug in the latest play store build.
I had this problem since the start its only app over 50mb, then it was 60mb after an update, now with the new revamped play store for ATV the problem is fixed, for me at least
this update http://www.googlewatchblog.de/wp-content/uploads/android-tv-neu.jpg
Hi, I'm starting this thread having searched for solutions in other threads and not having found it.
As background, I'm running Pie 9.0 with the August patch update. I got the phone in March and when I saw the pop-up for the update, I installed it, without doing any background checks (not my usual MO) - which is not to say my hot spot was working and then stopped, I just hadn't used it before then. My previous cell was the trusty Samsung S3 in its various flavours - mainly for the small form factor and frankly it was enough phone for me.
Anyway it seems that the PH1 "hot spot" works fine as a *repeater* when I'm connected to wifi but as soon as I turn off my wifi or am out of reach of a wifi and want my hot spot to connect to my mobile data, there's no internet connection to any device connected to my hot spot, even though both my PH1 and the device(s) show as "connected" to each other. internet on my PH1 works just fine in these instances.
What's the secret handshake to make this work?

I don't have any trouble on TMO, but two thoughts for you.
Try adding "net.tethering.noprovisioning=true" to the build.prop file. You need root for this.
Maybe lengthen the TTL (time to live) on the connecting device. Google for your device/OS how to do this.

Hmm... so root my phone...
Haven't rooted anything yet... so this is new territory for me.
Don't think it's the TTL, since it's the same with *any* device connected to my phone...

Mine doesn't work when bluetooth is turned on, for some reason. You could try turning BT off, and see if that helps

Well, I turned bluetooth off and when I try to connect to google.com with Chrome, my iPad says "This site can't be reached". When I switch to another wifi source, Goolge is found!
So... what's the culprit in my PH1??

Do you have tethering support on your cell plan?
It is of course always possible some other app is interfering. VPN, ad blocker, ect. But honestly, in all likelihood you need to bypass the tethering check as I described earlier.
If that step doesn't work by itself, in a terminal app with a root prompt enter the command:
settings put global tether_dun_required 0

Thanks ktmom, I guess I'm surprised that yours (and others'?) work without this mod and I'm needing to root mine? I have no other apps such as the ones you mention on my phone so I'm really confused why this simple connection isn't working on my phone.
