Can't download APPS - Captivate General

Hi guys, my Captivate won't download apps from Android Market. Even if I turn wifi on or off. Any idea why this would be happening. It did this last week, I fixed it by restoring phone. I don't wasn't to do that every week though. Also when I force phone to check for updates its say "DM initialisation is not ready. Check network or sim card"

Maybe you should take it to the AT&T store - they may know whazzup.

I took it to store, call customer service, and spoke to Samsung customer service last week. Nothing they said or tried help. I figured out to restore it on my own would fix it..... none of them even suggested that option.

I know that this is an old thread but I thought it might be helpful if I post the solution to the “DM initialisation is not ready. Check network or sim card" when trying to check for an OTA update. It seems to be linked to task managers. If the process “Device Management” is not running in the background when you check for an update then you will receive the DM error message. What I do is add an exclusion to the Device Management process in my task manager.

it sounds like you'll need to do another reset. I had that problem when I tried a rom from the i9000 phone. It had left over remnants from the original rom. I'm back to the at&t rom again because it runs the smoothest and I like it the best though it's kind of ordinary.

[Q] Phone randomly tries to "Connect to DM server..."

Every so often I noticed the red/blue arrows on the top of the notifications bar stating Device management "Connecting to DM server...." . After a few minutes it pops up a screen with Communication Error.
Also, when I try to do a software update through settings it says "No firmware" without even connecting or checking.
My phone is rooted and was reverted back to 2.1 using Odin after I upgraded to the unofficial 2.2. I haven't been able to do any software updates since. The Firmware version is 2.1-update1. I'm not sure if this is the official latest one or not.
You're up to date. Relax, if a push comes, you'll know about it here first.
I'm just wondering why this randomly happens. Its annoying when my phone starts to lag (even w/ the lag fix) and it drops everything I'm doing to show a screen saying "connection failed."
Additionally, i'm on a 200mb data plan and it uses a significant amount of data on 3G.
My phone kept habitually checking the DM server all the time after the last official update. I finally went into Manage Applications and cleared the cache on Device Management.

I didn't find the DM server in Manage Applications but I did find it in the Running Services and disabled it from there. Since then it hasn't popped up so I think this fixed it. Thanks!

You have to set the filter to "All" instead of the default "Third Party" for it to show up. Forgot about that.

From Samsung urgent update to samsung backup and restore Manager

Hi has anyone else recieved this pop up?
Stock note 5 no root. It shows up in my pull down status bar. If I don't hit accept the update or decline it goes away.
See picture.
Yes and i have also declined, it seems very fishy. I dont want to infect my note, i love this thing. Would love to know what it is
Installed it. No issues so far.
I got the same thing and installed it today. I also looked in the application manager and you can uninstall the update if you wish
It's just a software update for Samsung backup and restore. My guess is maybe getting ready for 6 to finally come.
I called my service provider and they said they see it on their devices in their office. But they told me I can contact Samsung for more information. I then called Samsung, the support guy had no idea what it was and said that they only know about the Lollipop update. Never had much luck with Samsung support, always seems pretty useless.
I'm getting the same pop up daily on my Edge Plus. It's not a software update through Android. It says it's from Galaxy. ???
I've also received this update. Haven't installed it yet.
Anyone received android 6 update yet? Still waiting on Sprint.
I installed it yesterday. I have seen no ill effects.
I have received this same notification. I have yet to install. When I navigate to Settings to locate Software Update, it says my device is up to date, yet I keep receiving the notification. Seems super fishy to me.
I've been getting this notification almost daily for about 2 weeks and have declined everytime also because it seems very "fishy". I can' t find any app called "Backup and Restore" on my phone and settings show all is up to date. I called Sprint. They didn't know. Suggested I call Samsung or do a system reboot (they had no clue). I called local Speint store with techs there and he wasn't familiar with it either. He asked if I could bring it in to show him. Haven't yet. I have the notification "pending" in background now. Maybe I'll take it today. At least I have Lookout Security installed so maybe that will help in case its malicious? Very wierd. Someone please post if you have specifics! Thanks!

Major problems with Google Play

Hey guys. So, I got my BPXL about a week ago, and I instantly loved it. The first thing I did was reinstall all apps from my previous phone. All 180 apps. No issues (except for the -504 problems). Two days ago, I was prompted by the Play Store about some updates. I told my phone to update all apps automatically, but there was a list of about ten items that needed to be updated. "okay, whatever." So I initiated the downloads. About two hours later, I realized that in the notification drawer, the download for the very first app in that list was appearing as paused. Return to the Google Play Store, see what's up, and the download bar is just running running running, but never actually showing any download progress. Paused them all, tried to run them one at a time, same problem. Tried to install a new app, same problem. Tried all of Google's troubleshooting steps, same problem. Here's where it gets real fun: Performed factory reset of phone, same problem. Acquired replacement phone from Amazon, SAME PROBLEM.
Apps can be downloaded and installed from the Amazon Appstore, but Amazon's app market couldn't hold a candle to the Google Play Store. I'm totally at the end of my rope. Google doesn't know what to do, Blu doesn't know what to do, and I have no idea what to do. I have no idea what is causing these issues. Anybody had anything similar happen and know what to do?
New here but I've had my Pure XL since December. I've been having the same issue for about a week or so. The only thing I've found that works is to cancel the updates, turn off Wi-Fi and start downloading them again. Of course that uses a lot of data, so it's not really an ideal solution..
and the download bar is just running running running said:
Dear friend i got the same problem. But i was very confused when I when to other WIFI location and suddenly the downloads start working....I change my originally router and seens to fix that..don't know why... but it never happen again...

I actually just got off the phone with Blu CS, and it seems that this issue is common enough that they're rushing out a patch to try and fix it. There's a lot of other broken stuff I hope they patch over too, but in the meantime, being able to download off of Google Play would be a big step forward.
So there it is. Anybody experiencing the issue, wait. That's what they told me, that's all we can do.
Received an OTA update today that appears to have resolved the play store issue.
Blu Pure XL pause download problem *Easy Bypass*
I recently bought a Blu Pure XL, shortly after I rooted it no problem, then I had the store error that everyone else is talking about and people say there was an update released to fix it. Unfortunately when I try to start the OTA says my system is damaged so I downloaded the app: DataEye to see what processes use the internet while downloading and long story short when the download says paused open Dataeye and Toggle data saving mode on then off! Fixes every download that pauses hope this helps!
I try to to update today through wireless update but i only get the message "network connection failed". So i unroot the phone using the the tutorial forum.xda-developers.com/pure-xl/general/twrp-recovery-root-blu-pure-xl-allview-t3269447 by bemolx
it keep saying "network connection failed" on WIFI or 4G, internet is ok and working.
But i notice something weird: I can't set the camera Storage Location to Internal Memory, only to SD card. (Also whatsapp can't receive any media) . I don't know if i did something wrong at the first time when i root the phone or if this is related to the update that i am not able to install. By the way if somebody manage to download this update as a zip and share with the community. ? maybe others are having the same problem?

Question about a email I got

Hey everyone,
I got thru doing a factory reset and installed all the Play Store app updates on my Samsung SM-J727T1 a little while ago. I use Metro PC for my cell carrier, and the few times in the past I've never received a email like the one I got a little while ago.
It looks like it's sent to someone with a LG Cell and I only have the Samsung. Could anyone when they have some free time take a look at this and see what u think it's something for my phone.
Hi,*
If you were experiencing an issue making a payment and didn't see a decimal on an LG device*in your key board, LG finally got a fix.* These are the directions they provided to manually update your device:
LGEIME v7.6.12.3 has been uploaded to the update*Center and the customer*can update it from Settings > Update center > App Updates.
They are currently working on the auto-update process.*
For the crash issue:
We recently posted a new version of the app out on Play. This is version 470025.**
As always if you are having issues paying your bill using the app, you can call the automated system and make a payment for free or you can go to**metropcs payment**
Finally if you need to report an issue with the app or with anything else, please call 611 and a representative can put in a ticket for you.

problem disabling system update notifications on oneplus 8 pro

Hi. Thought I could get a little help with something. I got my 1+8pro and I rooted it with Magisk only. It was a little tedious but my root check app says it is rooted. I had trouble with my bank apps. One was so stingy that I had to redo the root using a different app name instead of Magisk. Finally got that working. Then I started getting notifications for a system update. Well, in order to update I had to wait until that version was posted on 1+ website so I could download it and patch it in. I finally did that and eventually got everything back up and running with the update. It was tedious and the phone is finally working again, just like I want it to.
About another week later it began nagging me again to do yet another update and I did not want to go through all that all over again. I went into the settings for that system app to disable the notifications but the switch was greyed out, locked in the on position. I live by important notifications and having that up in my notification area constantly is distracting. So I contacted support and asked how to disable the system updates or the notification. They told me to do what I already tried and I had to send them a screenshot showing that it was greyed out. Then they were trying to talk me into resetting my phone which is scary considering it took me many weeks to set everything all up.
So I said "uncle" and ended up going through the update baloney all over again and getting it rooted like before. Tedious. I checked after doing so and the notification setting switch was still greyed out. So, now it started nagging me to update again only this time wants me to go to OS11 which I am certainly not even ready to try as it is still in its infancy and not interested in taking a chance that something stops working properly on the phone.
I have a root uninstaller app on the phone that disables apps, but it is so old that it is no longer supported and apparently doesn't work with this newer Android version like it did on my old phone. It just brought the app over when I transferred everything from the old phone to this new one. It has app disabling features that apparently do not work for this version of Android. So I cannot use it to disable the System Update app. Now, I can probably install the Pro version of Titanium Backup which has an app freeze feature but not sure if it will work after paying for it. So before I do such a thing I wanted to see if there are any other options to maybe get this switch un-greyed so I can block these notifications. I know also that I can clear the cache and data for the app and it stops for a few days, but then I have to keep doing that once or twice a week and that is just a pitb to keep doing. Besides, 1+ said that it shouldn't be greyed out.
Anybody got any ideas for me to try without jeopardizing having to lose it all and start over? If I knew what I was getting into with Magisk, I would have installed TWRP first so I could have backup images to roll back to. But that is an afterthought now. I don't think Titanium Backup can create an actual flash image of the phone like TWRP. Maybe I should start over and just do it right with TWRP, then Magisk in the first place. But I want to leave that as a last resort.
Ideas, thoughts?
Thanks if you can.
