Cant connect after some time to gps via wifi. Data works... Any1 know solution?
So, is it the Play store, or GPS, or WIFI problems anyway?
From the title, I assume it's Play store problem (can't connect via WIFI).
But from your description, I assume you can't lock GPS signal if your WIFI's turned ON.
Tell us more, what's your device model (3G/4G), your current ROM, etc.
WiFi issue. All other apks are working great, except GPS - Google Play Store, sorry, i didn't notice that short is gps :/ real gps working great, just play store is having issues... I use official developer ROM for 4g 1sim
It worked great via WiFi, but after some time is just stops... Only way to download something from play store is data connection... You can see from the pic above that WiFi is on, but faded, don't know why... And only play store is not working via WiFi.
Backup then flash a stable rom.
Anything weird could happen with a dev rom.
It happened to me even with stable ROM. Actually with every rom

I have a fascinate which i bought outright for use as a GPS / media player / itouch replacment and im having issues with the app marketplace...
Every time i try to set up the account using wifi it says could not establish a reliable data connection.
how can i get past this? is there some way i can trick the phone into thinking its running on a data network when its really going through wifi?
Also, every time i turn on the phone its asking me to unlock / set up the phone. i get out of this by using *#83786633 but its a bit annoying, is there anything else i can do? Its a verizon phone and im in canada, so no luck going to V. and asking them to fix it...
would putting a custom firmware on the device be of any use? i have rooted the phone, just cant download any apps through the marketplace. Is there a way to manually install apps through rooting?
My bet would be that you're not fully connected to wifi, to be getting that message. I've been using mine on wifi since I got it, and have set everything up fine. The only time I ran into that problem is when my router went out, it said I was connected but there really was no connection.
As far as the activation screen issue, no there really isn't any way around that. Its there because the phone really should be connected to a network. (And I'm not 100% sure if its going to connect to GPS without being connected to a data network? I've never tried.)
Well if I use airplane mode it turns my gps receiver off however if I use the code above it lets me use gps and wifi no problem. Hell I'm on wifi now on the phone but it won't connect the phone to my google account tho if I go to google.com it works fine.
Any ideas?
oops double post, mods plz delete this
The same happened on my Eris. Best bet is to use data to activate. Turn of syncs and then use wifi to sync. It cant be all that much data. Once your active you wont have a problem using the market and stuff over wifi. Thats what I had to do on the eris to use it as a wifi toy when i got my fas.

Basically two things going on here. I know the phone can use WiFi just fine (works for data without having a SIM card in the phone), but when trying to use the marketplace, apparently it requires there to be a cellular data connection. Is this a bug or a feature?
Also on a similar note, I've purchased a couple games that are too large to download over the cellular network, and the phone tells me to either connect the phone to WiFi, or connect it to my computer to download the app. When I connect to WiFi, go into the market to start the download, it still tells me I need to connect to WiFi. Plugging it into my computer doesn't really do much other than open Zune, and I can't find a way to redownload purchased apps, it just says I've already bought the app.
Anybody else have similar issues or have any suggestions on how to get around this?
Remove from download and get it again

I had that issue. Once you have bought the app/game, you don't have to pay for it again. Taking this into consideration, you can safely cancel or remove the app from the download list, search for it and hit buy. It will notify you that you have already bought the app, and if you wish to install it again. Agree to do so and it should download fine (over wifi) without any hiccups.
I have installed a couple of apps over zune but it's just way too complicated, really leaving it to chance. Sometimes it'll install, but most times it won't.
Hope this helps.
Hey,
I just picked up a quantum myself and I'm having this exact same problem, I can't download apps through wifi. Mine is not unlocked yet so I haven't had the chance to test it with 3G.
Have you found a fix for it yet?
I've been downloading apps using cellular data...?
However not huge games, just normal apps. Although I tried to download one game last night and it said please connect to wifi, but that's been the only one.
So after using the marketplace app with my cellular data it seems as though I can download apps and games in the marketplace with wifi.
Weird it seems to work normally now.
Maybe there is some sort of authentication step or something that happens once you access the market with your cellular data.
as far as the wifi problems. Its windows... inherently, its still glitchy. Turn it off n right back on n it works for me doing that.
Also as far as apps that say you already have em? Uninstall it, then it will let you do it. delete it and uninstall it. Or worst case, if you REALLY want it, sync, format n resync.
I am having a problem connecting to google play services when my phone is using the mobile data connection (3G).
I am using the orange signal bars in the quick settings panel to indicate that it has no connect to the services. I have also downloaded this app that also confirms that there is no connection.
When I enable WIFI it connects straight away.
If I enable WIFI hot spot mode on my phone and get a friend to connect to my hot spot, they are able to connect to google play services fine.
Periodically it will connect to the services but 95% it wont.
I am currently running PA RC2 but have flashed stock 4.4, 4.4.2, 4.4.3 and 4.4.4 and the problem is the same.
Any Ideas?
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.

Hi,
Does anyone else run a non-Huawei usb modem? (i see that a majority of the ones which work seemingly fine are made by those).
Mine is a no-make 4g/wifi usb dongle and I have managed to get it to work but only by using "PPP Widget 3" and I needed to root my head unit to do it too.
Whilst not ideal, it does seem to work.. for the most part. Once it boots up it connects and all is good, got it to auto connect. great.
But
Google Maps seems to think it is offline. :-/
Every other app is fine, except that. Even all of other Google apps such as chrome, gmail, playstore etc, all work fine.
I've checked the settings and it is set to allow background data and unlimited data use etc.
Little confused.
Any ideas?
Also is there any easy way to see if the unit has an internet connection in the notification bar next to volume/time etc? as because i'm using PPP Widget the OS doesn't really see it as a proper internet connection it seems.
thanks in advance.
anyone?
