[Q] Cannot connect to Google Services (Grey WIFI Symbol)

Seem to have started having issues, but only started today.
Using Codename android rom 3.3.0
Anyone have any ideas on how to force it to happen etc.
Tried rebooting my router, but seems to be the same,

Have you tried Force closing the services under settings, apps, running, Google Services , then try syncing your GMail or logging into Gtalk to restart it

Ill have a look. rebooted my device several times and rebooted the router too.
I dont use Gtalk or Gmail. Just cant access the play store!

Wiped all the google apps data and cache. Seems to be fine now

New router, not Facebook app doesn't work

So I replaced my old reliable WRT54GL router running Tomato firmware with a new Asus RT-N66U router with RMerlin's modified stock firmware, everything is working fine... The only odd issue is my Nexus 4 on Beanstalk talks to it and every thing works, except the Facebook app, about 50% of the time it just its there saying "updating" all the time, toggle off WiFi and it connects to mobile data and happily updates, toggle back and it fails, but everything else on the phone works fine (G+. Tapatalk, Hangouts, Play Store, Spotify, Youtube, etc). To make it even stranger, sometimes it works with no issues.
Any ideas, I know this might not be the most appropriate to ask, but I don't know where else to start.

It's an app related issue. Try clear cache and data of Facebook app then restart the app. You will have set up your account again once cache and data are cleared.

I was a little skeptical when I read this, but did it anyway, and it seems to have corrected the problem... Thanks!!!

[Q] [SOLVED] Apps not working with wifi but no issue through browser or 4g

So I updated to NC1 and rooted and went on with my ricing as usual but I ran into this unusual problem after about a week. Keep in mind I did not change any settings anytime close to before this happened. Apps like Facebook, Twitter, eBay, Paypal, and even the Play Store stopped working over wifi but others did such as my chanu, Craigslist, email, etc. If I go to Twitter, Facebook, eBay, etc. through Firefox everything works properly but not in the apps themselves. If I disable wifi everything works fine off of 4g.
Here are some of the things I tried in order
- rebooted device
- cleared cache of applications with issues
- booted into recovery cleared my whole cache partition
- uninstalled apps but even Play Store wont work over wifi so I had to load it up in Firefox then reinstalled
- forgot wifi network and re connected
- restarted modem
- tried with the internet at my sisters house when I was over a few days ago and still did not work. She has a note 3 and everything worked properly for her
So at this point I was willing to try anything. I rebooted my device without my SD card just for the sake of desperate troubleshooting. When I booted into it all my active logins were gone. I tried logging into my twitter and it returned an error but not an error like before just saying my network connection wasn't working properly it said something along the line of "Unknown Hosts file"
Now I am fairly familiar with the GNU/Linux system (running Arch Linux for over a year) but I cannot think of a reason why my hosts file could have been modified on my device. Even if it was modified why it would bring issues like this? Shouldn't default to my Routers DNS server then?

Do you have adblock app running?

It was running originally but I disabled it and changed my network setting back to not use 127.0.0.1 as a proxy and the issue was still there. I probably should have mentioned this above. Really not looking forward to it but I feel like I am going to have to flash back and start all over with my ricing/settings.
[EDIT1]Alright I just uninstalled it completely and set my proxy setting to none and still have the issue. I am going to clear my cache partition with it uninstalled and see what happens.
[EDIT2]Well what do you know it worked after I rebooting and cleared my cache partition. I think it was more of the fact of rebooting then clearing the cache. Going to go ahead a give you a thanks for reminding me about adblock, I just kind of ruled it out as an issue when I disabled it the first time. Cheers!

Weird Play Store WiFi Issue

Hi Guys,
I ran into this issue two days ago. I am unable to connect to Play Store using Wifi over Note 4 and S4.
Play Store works using Mobile data (Virgin Media) for both devices. I can use internet as normal using wifi but Play Store doesn't work over Wifi. So far i have tried this;
1- Clear Cache and Data for Play Store.
2-Cleared Cache for Google Play Services and framework.
3- Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache via Recovery
4-Flashed two different roms (Simplerom and BoBCat Rom)
5- installed latest Play Store apk
6- Change time and Date from Automatic to Manual.
7- Turned Plane mode, turned Wifi on Rebooted Phone then Opened Play Store.
8- Change Channels on Wifi router and restarted Modem etc
After all this still no success.
Spoke to ISP providers (Virgin Media), I have Superhub 2 which has wifi 2g and 5g and Belkin Router. I have tried both no Success.
Virgin were convinced that it was Note 4, after telling them that its the same on S4, they are looking into it. I asked them if equipment is faulty. They said internet works only Playstore is the problem, no need to change the equipment.
I have tried everything not sure what else I can do. Any Suggestions?

That's very strange.
If it had been just one device, I would have suggested a firewall on the device might be blocking the WiFi connection to GP, but allowing cellular data to pass.
Can you gain access to the Google account that's associated with GP via WiFi?
The only other suggestion I can make is create a Nandroid backup in Recovery.
Factory reset the device and check you can access GP.
Then restore or decide to start again, depending on the result.

Over Wifi GP doesn't connect using mobile browser. I did factory reset also still no sucess. I can access GP using PC. Its only when I am using wifi when i get time out error.

Play Store/Gmail - No Internet Connection error (But have internet Connection) - SSL

Hello, I have a PX6 Avin device and I just installed their update to fix all the other dreadful problems, and bam, no longer am able to use the Play Store. It says NOT CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET. I tried resetting the date and time to manual, still does not work. I have not tried tethering my hotspot to it but no WIFI works on play store or gmail. Everything else works with Wifi. And if you try to browse to a secure site it says cannot connect securely. What can I do to fix this? I was sure the date and time would fix but it did not.

I would try either force stopping and clearing the cache from play store, or even the data! Watch out, you may have to give your credentials again.
Or in worst case, factory reset the unit and start configuring everything from scratch.
