I'm experiencing the following error when attempting to login via the social networks part of the data connection function:
There was a connection error while attempting to login.
Does anyone have the same problem and has a fix been found?

i second that, seems to happen to me too even after a hard reset, i cannot login to youtube anymore. Facebook works ok but doesn.t download photos anymore. Does anyone knows what is causing this ?
I think this is an issue with the youtube web service that Sense logs into, as it didn't work for me for most of a day, and then it suddenly did and has worked ever since.
Sod's law! I just tried it again and it's not working now.
Nothing's changed on my phone, so it must be youtube's problem. Just leave it a few hours and try again. Unless, of course, you're saying it's like this all the time!

Used to work, didn.t and didn.t work after hard reset either so i hope it.s youtube.s fault, but .. how about facebook not loading photos when you check the albums ? Can you please see if it works, or does any one experience the same thing ?

I've raised this with HTC - I'll report back if they have an answer/solution.

Mine also used to work a few days ago - most likely something YouTube has done.
T-Mobile Netherlands cannot help
I have the "There was a connection error while attempting to logon." aswell and called the Dutch T-mobile. I'm using a UK version of the HD2 and want to use the Youtube Widget aswell. The first helpdesk employee said it could be something with "bering" not sure what it is. The connection was dropped the seconde helpdesk employee switchde me to second line helpdesk, this guy told me no restrictions are in place AFHK. He also said that with iPhones they can do more, but since the HD2 isn't delivered by T-mobile he couldn't help.
I checked with a disabled Sim card and enabled WiFi connection and still got the "There was a connection error while attempting to logon." message. WHen trying http://m.youtube.com my login credentials just work on both connections (WiFi and 3G/H).
Are these widget controlled by the provider or youtube or a registry entry or ???
Best Regards, Onedb
Well as far as i see, the youtube connection error started to happen suddently to devices that didn.t suffer any change. I.m guessing that is somehow youtube.s fault and maybe it will be fixed in time. Same thing happend with rss hub when searching online for channels there was an error there too, now all works fine without doing any changes.
It looks like a lot of people have this problem, me included, and I hope that they will fix that soon, because it is very annoying.
i could log in to youtube normally on my original German rom, than i flashed wwe rom and since than i get the connection error every time
Hi ho, I have this annoying problem also
I buyed one today, and got the same problem, here in germany as well. So this should be a problem with youtube. Maybe they've changed the logingateway er sth. else.
Just keep trying until it works.
Same here maybe it has something to do with this YouTube to begin reinforcing restricted API access on Dec. 2 althought it says Dec 2nd it's strange how all of a sudden we cant log in

That article talks about video scraping, which obviously has nothing to do with this issue. I can't believe that a company like HTC just threw something together and hoped it worked. It must be relying on public API calls that are, for whatever youtubey type reason, failing.
I've never been able to login to the Sense youtube integration service. Facebook and Twitter works fine.
If anyone has a fix for this, I would really appreciate knowing about it
As far as I can tell, this is a YouTube problem - not a problem with our phones/software. I only say this because sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. It doesn't matter what connection type I have (2G, 3G, HSPA, WiFi), it simply will not work, and then all of a sudden, maybe a couple of days later, it will.
I think the YouTube servers that the app connects to are just a bit shoddy, to be honest. Maybe they weren't expecting the traffic that's been generated by adding this functionality into a very popular mobile UI (don't forget that it's not just the HD2 that has this relatively new functionality now).
I don't know this for a fact. I just VERY strongly believe it.
Using darchlegend v5 trying to figure out if it is something with my rom or a network problem, I can't sign in getting a "There was a network errror while trying to signin." Anyone else having problems?
Have you read the threads in here??

I haven't seen anything that is why i made a post. I always see the typical sign issue that people were having before, but all we had to do was input the password and it would login. This started about a hour ago on my phone and it won't let me login at all.

I had the google sign-in issue, but I was able to get it working. dont know which step fixed it, but this is what i did on DC 2.0 r02
!) Surfed the web
2) Updated profile/PRL
3) Restarted
4) Applied battery fix
Dont know if it helps you, but you can give it a shot....
Battery fix: need to go and set your phone to not use the gsm band. On the dialer, type in *#*#4636#*#* and go to phone information and change the set preferred network type to CDMA auto(PRL) - you must do this regardless if it shows it already.

Having the same problem, and using te exact same build...
Same problem but i'm on gumbo 1.5c, worked last night, this morning not working. Same problem on my GF's moment
EDIT: The rest of my data services work fine
I saw this as well this morning. I am running DC 1.0.
From time to time in the past I would have to log back into google, not a big deal, but starting at about 6:45am PST it would fail.
Rebooted my phone, set the network to CDMA (AUTO) and was able to log back in.
Something is going on with the networks.

I don't know if it's relevant but I had this problem when I accidentally flashed an Eris based ROM that updated my PRI. My Network was showing as unknown instead of Sprint. Once I restored my PRI and my network showed Sprint, I was able to log into Google again.
Still showing Sprint as network, no PRI issue here. just the google sign in issue....cant download from market and cant re login after I cleeared google services data

I'm glad to see iam not the only one.

Looks like network problem, my Hero and @ moments are having same issue. Anyone contact Sprint yet?

I had one of the PRI's that were causing problems, so Im fixing it right now.
Iam logged back in now, guess it must of been a network issue.
mine still won't login and sprint is useless as usual
i've just been changing a few icons on my home scree. everything has been running great, had no problems whatsoever until i tried to access the market this afternoon.
the error im getting is that i need to set up or sign into my gmail account, so i go ahead and chose sign in, then it says:
"Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server.
This could be a temporary problem or your SIM card may not be provisioned
for data services. If it continues, call Customer Care."
ive searched all day on the net for a fix, tried unmounting the sd card, removing the sim, signing in via youtube, but nothing works.
what i have noticed is that, in the accounts settings, my gmail address is missing (samsung & regular email accounts are still there).
now, i must say that while i have been messing around with stock icons, i havent touched anything google related, or indeed deleted any apk's.
the last option open to me is a hard reset, which i want to avoid like the plague after weeks of customising my phone, even titanium restore didnt fix it
does anyone have anymore ideas what i could do?
thanks
i've had an idea, but will it work?
if i create the same account on my girlfriends galaxy ace, would i be able to transfer those account settings to my phone? if so, where are they located
i've just noticed as well, that i'm not getting any emails from my other accounts either
please....really need some help here guys
You could always re-flash your firmware to get the gmail icon and all the other settings back.I know you said you don't want to but if its disappeared then its a good way to get it back at least and with a nandroid and /or titaniun back-up its not that much work to put all your settings back.
ok, reflashing the firmware didnt work. the problem is definitely with servers as i cant add any more email accounts, all are getting server errors.
so....i ask this, what file holds this information? and if i can copy this from my girlfriends phone, will it work?
in fact, does anyone know ALL of the google apk's that should be installed, i have a feeling one is missing/corrupted
surely someone on here must know the answer to my last post??
I was having data issues with many different modems on my carrier but found today that KE7 modem solved my problem with solid download/upload speeds. worth a shot.
Have you frozen something or deleted something with titanium that you shouldn't have?
Try calling your operater to check if you have connection problems or not.After all the warning did say to call.The fact that it just happened suddenly is quite surprising and re-flashing should have put back everything that was missing.
Hi Taco1916,
Did you find a solution? I have exactly the same problem and I've tried all suggestions without success.

PlanetP,
I actually have a similar problem, and I see that you are also using China Unicom. I arrived in Kunming from Hong Kong last Sunday, and ever since Wednesday, Gmail suddenly stopped syncing, and Market does work. Market gives me the "no connection" thing. The weird thing is everything worked for two-three days after arriving in Kunming.
I've restored to previous nandroid backups, I've reflashed a fresh LeoMar Revolution rom (with everything wiped), and still cannot sign into my Google account..
My internet (via prepaid China Unicom data sim) and hotmail still works, XDA app, engadget all works..
I am going back to HK tomorrow, I will then find out if this is a China thing, or else...

me too,google maps, google account,all disconect from server,maybe this is really a china thing, exchange works great though, maybe later microsoft will sell a lot more wp7.5 in china,because android can not sync with google anymore
2 days later i will check again in europe
Connection Error
I have been accessing gmail/market/maps on China mobile for past 3 months ... but for last couple of days I am getting Error connecting to server message... does it something to do with China mobile connection or something to with the setting... I have wiped the mobile couple of times and installed new rom also. Even then it is not solved? any soultion
Seems like this is a problem on both networks just recently, for me, it was just four days ago.
I have been in and out of china the past three months with my s2 without problems. I wonder why we are all met with this problem.
Now that you brought it up, google maps doesn't work either. it seems to detect my location, the arrow swivels around, but the map its not displayed, just the grid.
I really hope this is a temporary thing...

I've recently (2 days ago actually) upgraded my firmware to 2.3.5 (from 2.3.3) and I'm getting the same connection error when trying to add a google account. I'm pretty sure this is related to the china firewall as all the google services work correctly ever since the day I bought the phone.
In fact, I have tried all the alternatives that you can think of: using wifi to add google account does not work, using youtube to add account does not work, using market enabler to fake my sim card provider does not work, factory reset does not work, downgraded back to my original 2.3.3 firmware does not work. The only plausible option left now is to try and add a L2TP VPN account to my phone. If this happens to work (which I'm pretty sure should) then it means china has resumed blocking all the google mobile services.
I'll keep you guys updated in a few days once I find a good vpn service provider.
UPDATE: I have got a reliable vpn service going on and am now able to connect to google services and sign in to my account. Note that you'll need to take out your unicom sim card and connect to wifi+vpn to have this work. If you have a sim card inserted, you'll have to try the youtube trick with vpn connected.
So I have proved that this is, in fact, related tol china blocking access to all the google mobile ports.
So the china firewall has blocked google mobile services before?
I never knew this since I recently switched from a hk blackberry with a roaming plan in china the past three years when I traveled in and out of china.
Do you think it has to do with this weeks anniversary?

Got the same problem after have bought a GS2 from Hong Kong.
Try Wifi/China Mobile internet but nothing works was wondering if it didnt come from my rom...
Same problem, wish I'd seen this thread early, as I 've just wiped my phone, lost **** loads of data re-installing firmware, stock rom etc, re-setting, sim card in/out, cannot try the YouTube Trick as China won't allow You Tube and still can't add the google accoutn as it says it can't establish a reliable connection.
Jesus, what the feck is going on ?, anybody got any information on whether this is actually just China ?
This was working fine up until a few days ago, I have been in Guangzhou for past 2 years, and had Galaxy S2 working fine here for last 6 months, and now this ?
Wow, that sucks for you, I feel for ya, I have since rooted my phone so I can make bootable back ups.
I am heading back to hong kong tonight, so I will update you guys tonight when I get out of the firewall.
When did this problem start happening for you guys?

Hi Chief,
For me 3 days ago, it really is a complete pain in the A$%e...
At first I thought my Data Plan had been cancelled with China Telecom, but even after re-booting, hard reset without sim and just connecting to the WiFi in the company which is obviously Chinese, it still will not add the Google Account so no GMAIL or Market Place anymore...
Still trying to see what else is shafted, but also my phone looks naff now as I cannot re-download Go Launcher EX from Market Place as cannot get on it...
That is around the same time as mine, I think I lost connection last wednesday. I hope this isn't forever, especially for you guys that are in china long term.
Had this happened before? I wonder if this is across all phones with android platform.

I don't have my phone rotoed and at first I thought it was some rogue app trying it with ,y phone but I have been unable to update due to my "network issues". Very strange so far i have only tried on 3G and not wifi... if anyone finds a solution let me know
Seems a widespread issue. Think Samsung broke something.
just letting everyone know, but I have had a reply from Samsung, I duno if anybody has but here is the message I got
Hi Matt, we are currently upgrading Security Enhancements for Android which will check apps for malicious code and security risks. However some customers appear to be experiencing a connection issue with the upgrade server which we are investigating.
Please be assured that there is nothing to be concerned about and we are working on resolving the issue.

Well hopefully its fixed soon because the annoying thing keeps showing up and I cant get rid until I update... thanks for letting us know....
Ok, not 100% sure but this evening I've come home to find a new popup window on my phone from samsung talking about denial service log and security policy with accept/reject terms and conditions. I confirmed and its gone away. Thinking 'this' is the correct security policy which seems to have updated.
Sorry I didn't take a screen shot.
The previous security policy update notification disappeared after I cancelled it just once this morning around 9am when I got to my office - have not seen it since
+1
Looking forward to the fix
