On stock ROM, bluetooth doesn't work for transfering files.
What do you mean by Android market, browser and some other applications not working?

They were asking me to sign in for google and it sayss "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server."
And on the browser when I am not using wifi connection I cannot use network connection.
What is stock ROM?

It's the ROM (sorta like the Operating System) that comes as default on the phone.
Have you turn mobile network on? Try pressing the red button (ON/OFF) for a few seconds, and tapping "mobile network"

I did that already. But still nothing happens. They still require me to Turn on network connection though it is activated.
What could be the solution? should i install a new rom on my phone?

ups.. wrong post =\

Some phones cannot log on google the very first time (first time you turn on the phone). In this case you have to make a hard reset and log on the first time it asks you to do so. That is in the wizard the first time you turn on the phone.
But if it is a problem with the connection, that is not the solution.

Problems with Navigator/Location

Hi all,
I'm hoping someone can help me with a problem I'm having with the navigation program on my Desire HD. It keeps randomly starting prompting me to purchase that maps for the country I'm currently in, Uruguay. No matter how many times I hit cancel it still keeps coming back. Some times it happens so often that it makes the phone almost unusable.
I'm currently traveling abroad and don't want to flash or even reset the phone. The phone is currently unlocked and rooted running Android Revolution HD 6.1.5 with Sense 3.0. Any help would be great appreciated.

Same problem and phone stays on speaker everytime.

Are you using the same firmware?

To solve this, I've uninstalled every com.htc.laputa.* services using Titanium Backup.
You can also disable those services with this command :
Code:
pm disable com.htc.laputa
pm disable [service name here]
and reboot your phone.

This issue gave me too many headaches to risk it to come back. It was so annoying...
Personally, I won't install those packages back. Anyway, I prefer Google Navigation over HTC Locations.

Same problem..Whatsapp, spotify and i think other apps too even with every power manager setting turned off keep being killed by the power manager itself. A reboot fix the problem but it comes again few hours later. No solution for now. I tried every possible thing to fix it. The last thing i did was disable these apps packages from the doze list via ADB. Still not sure if it works.

I too am having the same issue. It comes and goes, but is overall unreliable. I have turned off all power saving features for Whatsapp but sometimes it still happens.
Thread on the ZTE site.

Did any of you restore whatsapp from titanium backup? If so, that's your issue

I am also having this issue. Disabled all the power saving settings. I have to un-install and re-install Whatsapp every few days to resolve this issue.

same problem..
no fix yet.. restart sometimes work sometimes it does not.

Perhaps convert the app to a system app when rooted f.e. with link2sd. Set power savings if possible again to a minimum,reboot and test. Might help.

Anyone ever resolve this issue?, I need to stay on marshmallow

This is not a stock rom issue. It happened on literally every rom that I used. To fix it you have to reinstall the whole system.
It happened on certain installs of ROMs on my old Moto G2. AICP, CM13, CM14.1, AOKP, you name it. As you may guess none of them had some failed power management system.

Having this problem on B25 (B32 just came out so I'll try that soon), but I did restore from Titanium. Never a problem on the LOS based ROMs. I'll try backing up chats, then uninstall, reinstall through google play, restore.. see if that works.

Guarantee it will

Random reboots. Up to 15 a day

My Mi A1 keeps rebooting every half hour or so. There is no specific app or process that I can point a finger to. It just freezes momentarily and reboots. It's extremely frustrating. Has anyone experienced this with the phone? I have not rooted or anything. I think the issue is more so after the September security patch.

I haven't experienced this. You should backup your data and factory reset. If the issue persists you should contact the seller for a replacement.

Use Google backup for app data and settings and transfer files and photos onto your computer. Backing up your apps won't be possible without root unfortunately...

For apps apk can backup using Es file Explorer but not the data only the apk

Hi, I managed to isolate the problem to a specific SIM card in a specific location. As per my understanding, this is something to do with corrupt packets of data being transmitted via your network provider through a specific site (or several sites), which causes a reboot of your device. To isolate the problem do the following:
1. Switch off any one SIM card from Settings > Sim Cards
2. Monitor your phone for issues.
3. If the issue is replicated, switch on the SIM card switched off in '1' above and switch off the other SIM.
4. Monitor your phone for issues.
This should be able to identify the corrupt SIM. At this point, I permanently switched off the trouble SIM while at work (which was where the reboots kept occurring) and the phone started working normally without any reboots. I would switch on the trouble SIM in other areas and it did not cause any issues. A week later, I decided to do a SIM replacement on the trouble SIM, and this has managed to reduce the number of reboots to once a week, which I can live with.
Hope this helps!

Same here mate. Phone reboots 20+ times per day. I tried to do factory reset over 10 times, fastboot ROM flash. Nothing helps. Apps crashes, Chrome "Woops", Phone rebooting. This was last time, when I bought Xiaomi phone.

to fix this -
enable developer settings and turn on "multiprocess webview"
disable Chrome and then go to playstore and search for "android webview" update the app and the reboot problem will be gone

Thanks for this. But still "not working" . I disabled Chrome and updated Android webview. But I want to use Chrome for the internet, since my account is linked to everything. So as soon as I enabled Chrome again, problems came back. And WHY THE F**K THEY WON'T ALLOW US TO SWITCH BETWEEN CHROME AND ANDROID WEBVIEW?
Anytips?
Thanks in advance

if u have parallel space uninstall it

Thanks for the tip, but still no luck =(
So I cleaned and reflashed everything with MiFlash. 2 days now, still no problems, I'll keep here updated if any thing shows up.
Another problem is that I still didn't get Feb security patch. Tried everything! Did a factory reset, became beta tester of play services and cleared framework data and cache but still nothing! But

Guess I'll have to go with that, unfortunately.
I wanted to keep my bootloader locked so I don't see that annoying message of unlocked bootloader.
I finally got Feb update patch but I'm still having reboot problems.
Starting to think I have a defective phone since this problem was solved in almost every case I saw =(
