Internet has stopped working? - Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone else seeing this over and over again?
Sent from my SM-N900V using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

I am seeing this as well. Factory reset gets me internet for about a minute. Also if I start a verizon app like "My Verizon Mobile" it works but only for that app. as soon as I open something else it stops working.
I stopped into the Verizon store today and they were clueless. Sent me home to call the carrier.
Please post if you find a fix.

I called tonight and they seem to think it is a bad SIM. Sending a new one. I might hit up a store before then.
Will let you know if that resolves it.

Try using Chrome. Internet Explorer wasn't working good for me. It was very slow and didn't work at all sometimes. Chrome fixed all that. It's flying and without problems.

For me it was Internet failing in every app but Verizon ones. The new sim fixed it.

Removing bloat, messed up

I was removing some bloat after rooting, and everything I removed seems fine except one thing. Whenever I get an email, and pull down the notification bar and click on it directly, my email app force closes(using stock google app). If I go to the email app itself and then view the email, it's fine. Does anyone have any idea what the apk I removed that could have caused this,and if so does anyone have a backup they can upload, thanks!!

Do you happen to have the apk, or know where I can get it?
I downloaded the magazineapp, that didn't seem to fix it, I think I'll just re install the original EMAIL client APK, does anyone out there have that or a link to it?
This is driving me crazy, text message notifications don't seem to bother it, and I can set my emails to not notify in the notifaction bar and then they work perfectly when I go to open them. But if I set them to show in notification bar(which i need for my work exchange server) it says sorry, email has closed. Even if I don't pull look at the notification, and go directly to the email, it closes on the first try, the second time is fine

Have you tried booting into the stock recovery and clearing cache?
yes, same problems
I'm having the same issue. Using stock email app, connected to exchange 2007 server and keep getting weird force closes when opening items from the notification window. I've been going through unfreezing apps 1 by 1 but so far no joy.

Use a file explorer and drop the apk in the system/app folder and change permissions to match other files in that folder.

After getting FC with Exchange account after freezing a variety of apps in TiBu (generally the same ones frozen on my VZW S4), I've had to go back to defrosting everything, and only "Turn off" via application manger. I could never quite figure out which one(s) were causing it, but Exchange wanted the magazine app, Ant, and other what would seem entirely unrelated apps to be enabled. As much as I hate crap running that I neither use or want, the Note 3 has so much RAM and horsepower that it really doesn't seem to matter.

Did you have the Magazine app frozen. That is one of the few apps that I ran into that caused Exchange to FC.

[Q] FoxFi change

Today FoxFi said it needed to install VPN certificates on my Note 3, then required I set up a PIN/Pattern on the lock screen. I hate mandatory locks on my phone and don't want it. I use App Protector for the apps I want locked. I've used FoxFi for a couple of weeks now and it just did this today. I know I read somewhere that you don't need FoxFi to enable the Mobile HotSpot, but mine doesn't launch without it. I am rooted and hoping that something else is available.
Any ideas?
Yeah I'd like to know what this is about as well. I'm getting the same message now. Like u said there is another way but I liked FoxFi and it works well. Idk what to do. I hit install and then u have the option to choose to use it for a VPN and apps or WiFi? I'd like to here from someone who knows a bit more about this before I go doing anything. By the way I am Not rooted either. Still 100% stock.

I cannot thank you enough! It's strange but from last night to today it started prompting me for the lockscreen. It's pretty annoying to have that enabled and I was already going to look for a new method when I can across this post. Once again thanks a million!

No problem I'm glad I saw your post. It's what caught my attention to it so I went n looked at the app in the playstore to see if maybe it was because of an update and after reading through the description of the app I noticed way at the bottom that it said to do that for it to work with the galaxy s4. I figured they're similar phones so I gave it a shot and it did! We helped each other man! Without your post I would've never bothered to read that completely.

Thank you soo of much! I was pissed when they updated it. You had to choose between a pain in the ass combo for your lock screen or no lock screen at all. Now I can have my one swipe lock screen like I had before. I don't know why they changed the way it works for the note 3. Maybe for the people who couldn't figure out to press the home button.

As far as I know, Verizon thinks you have the hotspot active, but foxfi seems to spoof the subscription check for whether you have Verizon tethering or not. I would assume the VPN setup is to link the tethered devices so that all data appears to go through the phone connection and not the tether. Built in tethering popping up is probably the only way to turn the wifi into a router-like device.
It does work, and while I only tethered a few things while on vacation, Verizon has not gotten mad at me yet.
I would expect FoxFi to continue working on it, and restore their app to the old functionality of not using the built in tethering once they figure out how to make it work.
This doesn't seem to work on Kitkat... anyone know what else to try short of wiping the phone and starting fresh?
i never set a password on credential storage and the option to delete it is grayed out.... I've also tried several ways with no lock screen, PIN lock, Pattern lock... doesn't seem to get past this message.....

Same thing here it doesn't work on NC4 firmware. I asked in my own thread on how the devs are bypassing the tether check but no one will answer me. I asked a long time ago and again last night. Still no answer.

I'm not rooted. I have been using FoxFi before and after Kitkat. The update before the one that fixed it for Kitkat was where mine required a screen lock and certificates, but I had a screen lock on my phones for years, so it wasn't a big deal for me. The newest update that allows it to work with 4.4.2 is a bit annoying (having to randomly re-authorize it when the security asks for permission) and then having to use it's short cut to fool the phone into believing you have a hot spot subscription...but I burned over 120 gig last billing cycle and find it easier than some of the other wifi tether masks.

So, uh... for me, after I flashed this ROM, everything works perfectly right off the bat! No settings changes needed, as soon as it booted up for the first time I had network connectivity, data is working, LTE working, calls (incoming and outgoing) working, texts (receiving and sending) all working perfectly, camera working, wifi working... and it's lightning fast, it's like a brand new phone!
EDIT: Actually I spoke too soon... for some reason trying to send a text just says "message not sent", but I can still receive texts fine. Looking into this issue now.

Issue with Phone App taking over Yelp App

When I use Yelp on my 6T and go to hit the number for any business to call them, it opens up the phone app in place of the yelp app (NOT opening a separate phone app). The phone app actually takes over the Yelp app and if I hit back it doesn't go back to the yelp app, it just minimizes the app.
It gets annoying because every time I call a business through the Yelp app I have to close and reopen the app, do a search again, to continue looking for more businesses.
I've attached a screenshot where it shows the Yelp icon showing that it is the Yelp app but the screen shows the phone app which has taken it over.
Anyone else have this issue?
This is probably because Yelp is not using the (FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK) flag when launching the phone app when you click the number.
This is how they designed the app to function when you click the phone number. It's up to the app developer to decide whether to open the new activity in a separate task or not.
There is an Xposed module that fixed this exact issue system wide (https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/mod-activityforcenewtask-t2646504) but since there is no Xposed for Android Pie you are out of luck.
I suggest using Yelp in a browser if it bothers you that much.

Ah ok at least it's good to know that how the app is supposed to work and it's not just me. Thank you!
Confirm this issue. Really annoying.

Confirm this issue. Really annoying. Try using split screen so you can see the number to dial without clicking on the number link via Yelp app
