[Q] "Ending Session" Toast Message/Wifi Issues! - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

OK so I have a SUPER weird issue, I haven't found it anywhere on the web. A google search for my issue brought up maybe 2 people who have had this issue. So here goes. Running a Nexus 4 on stock AOSP, stock recovery, but rooted. I haven't had any issues until last night and I haven't installed anything since then, just updated Facebook I think. Whenever I'm on wifi my phone won't connect to any site except for Google services. I can google search and they will come up fine but when I click a search result it will not load the page if it isn't a google page. The only way to get back online is to turn off Wifi. WHen I disable wifi I get this weird toast message that says "Ending Session". Then everything works fine! Any ideas? I hate factory resetting especially since I have no SD card, so I wanted to ask here first. Thanks!

Sounds like you have an app that is building a VPN or acting as a proxy connection... This is an app issue and should not be coming from the operating system, this would also explain why you can't access everything. What app is doing this is the difficult one to figure out... :/

FIXED!
Figured it out. I don't know what it was but it was one of the xposed modules that I had installed. I removed xposed framework and it started working fine.

[Q]Network connectivity & Dexter's mod 1.41

Hello,
I would have posted this under the development posts but the forum won't allow me to...grrrr.
Anyway, I am using Dexter's mod 1.41 with the display settings fix also installed. Everything works great.
Except...I keep getting network errors whenever I try to download an app from the official marketplace, I also get them when sync'ing my dropbox, trying to download from the appoke apps store, signing into twitter, and a number of other apps. My browser works fine. Sometimes I can reboot and it starts working fine and then a few hours later I start getting the "network connection error has occurred" message from various apps again.
I did try reinstalling 1.41 & doing a complete wipe/restore after & still had the same problem eventually. It worked fine for awhile as I was able to go to the marketplace and download all of my apps again.
Anyway any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
i might ask if your network problems occur after the tablet was recently asleep. it seems, at least latest stock, that the power profile is set to sleep wifi/network connections when the display is off.
you might want to wait 5-10 seconds after waking up, or i suggest putting the power control widget on your homescreen and tapping the wifi button twice to re establish your network connection if you're getting network errors.
worked for me when i had download/network errors.

Yeah Forgot to mention that, but no its random when it starts happening. But definitely not just when it has been just woken up.
Nevertheless I am going to try what you suggested. I couldn't at the time when I wrote the post as it wasn't working. I turned it off and removed the SD Card, mounted it over on my PC, then copied your recent ROM update as well as Elocity's most recent firmware update, put the SD card back in, tried to reboot into recovery mode but for some reason it went into a normal boot. When I unlocked it, for some reason was asking me to sign into Google just as if I has flashed it but I definitely didnt. I've done that a bunch of time, this was definitely a normal reboot with dexter's 1.41 mod still installed. I canceled out of the google login after waiting 10 min for it to connect to Google's servers. (it was connected to my wifi network or at least I had the icon with the bars indicating I was connected to wifi) When I got to the main screen it started working normally. I went onto the market and downloaded Angry Birds Rio. Plus there were a bunch of updates for my other apps. So it is almost acting like I was not previously signed in with my google account, except that I did not relogin since I canceled it before finishing. Also I dont imagine that Dropbox would have been affected as it has its own login. But that is working fine too once I re-logged in.
It does seem to be intermittent. If it were the "not connecting after coming out of sleep mode" issue wouldnt rebooting fix that when it happens? I try that everytime I get the network errors and it works maybe 25% of the time.
Thanks for the response!
Did the 1.41 install and three patches also. Display still FC all the time. other then that works OK!.

If your G1 is constantly rebooting, Google Maps might be the reason. (Fix)

2 days ago, my G1 started acting up. Randomly rebooting too often, middle of a call etc. I was digging around, even checked log cat without much luck. Then I seem to have isolated the problem. In the past Google Maps updates usually borked things on my old Enom rom. So I went in and checked. After I loaded it, it gave me a message saying it updated itself. Then I went into settings for it and cleared the cache and map tiles. Since then no more reboots or odd issues.
I had tried to "Clear Cache" in recovery too which didnt do anything. So it does seem to be just google maps related stuff. So I wanted to post this in case anyone else had the same issue. Been using my G1 for 4 years now. Would hate to stop using it heh.
It's a conspiracy--they're trying to force you to upgrade your phone already.

This isn't specific to the G1, I had to uninstall maps on my sensation because it was causing reboots.
Yea now its all doing it again.. I may just uninstall maps. Then reinstall it and leave the "auto update" off. Its very annoying, cause Maps is one of the 1st things that loads on bootup.
Edit: Ok things of interest.. took sim out (that later using airplane mode with sim in) no more rebooting. How odd. T-mobile issue somehow I wonder? Or one of their apps.
Well I wondered if it had been Visual Voicemail.. but thats been inconclusive since right after I rebooted, Google Maps decided to download itself again after I had just uninstalled it... >.>

XOOM won't connect to google...

My wifi Xoom, using EOS 155, hasnt been able to connect to google's servers in several days. everything else works fine.... browsing, the amazon app store app, irc, etc. But the wifi icon won't turn blue, and when I try to goto the Andriod market it says it can't connect. gmail seems fine... just sent an email to another account and got the reply....
If i go into settings and look under accounts, everything that I have setup to sync says its doing it.... I just can't access the market and the wifi icon is grey.
This happens no matter where I'm at... my house, my friends and family, work, etc. So I know it can't be the network I'm connect to. I haven't made any changes to any settings in a while.... so unless something changed without me doing it....
I've power cycled it numerous times... both rebooting and turning it off completely and then back on again.
Anyone have any ideas what might be the problem???
Thanks

Strange problem... been using EOS for months now and have not had a similar connection issue. Only problem I had connecting to Google site and Application store occurred when I move to Google 2-way authentication and had to setup the security properly.
Did you have this same problem using an earlier version of EOS? When upgrading to EOS 155 did you do a wipe or clean your dalvik and cache? I would try a full system wipe and reflash the ROM. Sometimes it is easier to redo it from scratch then track down a particular issue.
I've never had any issues with any version of EOS, and I've been using them since night 1. And I had 155 installed since it was released... and this issue just happened a week or two ago. So nothing should have changed on my xoom.... unless it was done by some application or something. (And I'm the only user of the device)
I've tried stopping and clearing the cache on the google play app.... which I found the suggestion on another site... but that didn't do anything.
I had this happen before, but it normally just required a rebooting of the tablet, and it would then connect again.
I wish there was something like on windows with the event viewer.... cause I have no idea what the problem is. The error message when I try to connect to the storeis RH-01.
I'm going to install EOS4... but I wanted to wait a day or three until they have a chance to find/correct any early bugs.
I've also been getting error messages about google+... which I never had before. I'll just be doing anything.... browsing, using tweetcaster, playing music, etc and a error msg about google+ pops up.
Could not figure out what the issue was.... I just installed EOS nightly 160.. and everything is back to normal. I don't know if it was a Xoom issue or EOS issue... esp. considering everything was working fine on the nightly I was on for weeks... then all the sudden it stopped.
Reinstalling all my apps...
Simple solution: reflash gapps package.
Lol it's really that simple, I had the same issues as well, but on CM roms.

I've had a similar issue.. but resolved it with simply removing/deleting the remembered networks and re connecting them. This could be an artifact of my network setup with both the router and a wireless extender being visible from my location.. and once in a while it seems to confuse the connected systems.
Of course if I learned to leave my working systems alone.. they might not 'break' so often. but it is just too much fun to play:silly:

Oh well... I should have just tried reflashing everything... but I figured I would move on to 4.2 soon anyway... which I like (4.2) but it's a bit laggy on my xoom compared to 155.
You have to make sure you flash the correct gapps version with the ROMs. 4.2 nightlies require the packages named as follows: gapps-jb-201301##-EOS-XOOM-ONLY.zip be flashed together at the same time. EOS ROM 155 gets flashed with gapps-jb-20120802-eos-signed.zip.

Help Nexus 7 google play not connecting

Hi all,
Ok I have a Nexus 7 I rooted it about 4mths ago, works great, up untill a few weeks ago.
I dont think I did anything unusal, Just normal updates of apps.
Anyway So I try to go onto google play and it keeps coming up with 'Couldn't establish connection'. I havent change any of my wifi setting or google account settings.
So I can go onto the net through Chrome no worries, but just not anything to do with google play, which is all my apps.
I then did Factory reset and still nothing. And Also my Nexus will charge but not recognize USB on my PC.
Also when it was rooted, I try to clear the cache in recovery mode but it came up with, "No command"
Now I have looked online for solutiosn but nothing solid. Can anyone give me a straight simple answer, is it now just a brick.
Thank you

I may be give you solution about the Play Store problem. I've faced the same. This may be the network provider. I used Hotspot Shield. Let me know if you can't manage to install the app I'll attach the apk.

I'm concerned about your recovery mode issues, because it indicates you may have installed something incorrectly which is causing trouble. The simplest question to ask though is what color your Wi-Fi indicator is. It needs to be blue for Google services (such as the Play Store or Gmail) to work.

I would look into this problem before trying to address the play store problem. An improperly installed recovery can lead to far more problems than your play store not connecting.
Which recovery are you using, and which version is it?

[Q] Wi-fi connectivity issues

After a recent snafu in trying to remove root from my Nexus 7 tablet and installing the 4.3 update I think there are issues with with it's ability to keep a constant wireless connection, Juice Defender be damned as way before root and even during root I was able to maintain a flawless connection although I think the issue may have arisen during my installation of a cracked google play store app.
This was a couple months ago though.
However I decided rooting wasn't worth it and wanted to update to the new 4.3, this is where the snafu occurs, unrooting wasn't a problem at all, nor was flashing stock recovery, but the process of installing 4.3 was since even performing the update in my settings wasn't working, it would download and my tablet would restart and try to apply the update but soon after it would error out and I had to perform a hard shut down.
After that it would boot like normal and there were no issues, other than the update failing to apply.
So I decided to try and apply the update manually and as it turns out, I was attempting to install the update for the mobile version of the tablet instead of the wi-fi only one that I have so it didn't install correctly and simply erased all data on my tablet except luckily for the devices fastboot mode.
Seeing that I installed the correct 4.3 factory image and this is where the wi-fi issues come into play (I wanted to explain in as much detail as I could that might shed light on my current wi-fi situation).
The tablet booted up seemingly normally, taking a bit longer than it should have to me and upon getting to the glowing X before the main screen it suddenly reset it's self and then booted up correctly; so I finished the set up process after linking my wi-fi up but while going through each app that uses wi-fi I started off with games like Happy Street and The Sims Freeplay which worked normally.
Then I got go my Bank of America app and it's the one app (besides the Play Store on occasion), that didn't work at all, instead it just timed out, there's a screenshot so you can verify for yourselves.
You can clearly see I do have an established connection but this is the only app that fails to work after the update, again besides the Play Store but I've removed root and the crack is no longer installed, not that it would work anyway without root access but it doesn't concern me as much since it'll connect after force closing the app and starting it again.
So that's my issue in detail, is there something that I messed up that's preventing the device from maintaining a connection? Or do I simply need to re-install the factory image to restore connections?
Hmm...I've been having some trouble with WiFi as well.
I was running CM10 and then installed the 4.3 factory image over that. That's where the problem started. Since then I've tried the 4.2 factory image, Ubuntu Touch, and I'm now back on CM10, but the issue remains that my WiFi seems to stop working even though the icon in the notification bar says that it's connected.

Well the weird thing is, is that every other app seems to work but that one where it just times out, I'm going to try just re-installing the update and see if that helps things.
Edit: After backing everything up I decided to re-install the 4.3 update and after downloading the Bank of America app it started up instantly, froze for a moment and allowed me to sign in.
I closed out of the app and tried again to check and after 3 attempts to sign in it worked each time, I think the re-installation did the trick.
