A few days ago after I have root my HTC Evo and flash custom rom I have proble with market and gmail I am always got - Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server
If I log in to my account via youtube app gmail work but market say An error has occured
And now the solution is
1. Try to log in to your google account throu Google Talk app named Talk in programs.
2. If 1 solution doesn't work dial ##786# than Menu - Reset - Enter your MSL (SPC) ask carrier. Attention this will erase all your information and you have to reactivate your phone again.
Just in case someone else is still searching for an answer to this, I just wanted to say that this method did actually worked for me, after trying many other solutions. That is, activating through Google Talk instead of Google or Youtube.
I have to say that before that I deleted EVERYTHING Google related out of desperation (cache and data), uninstalled the latest market upgrade, rebooted, and then it let me use my account again, without losing any of my info.
Hope that helps.
How to fix can't establish a reliable connection to the server

Hi everyone, I hope this question hasn't been asked before (I couldn't find anything, but I'd be surprised if I were the only person with this problem).
I just got a Nexus S (not rooted or anything yet) and a friend wanted to check his email on it, but the Gmail website doesn't seem to work unless I'm on wifi (It finishes loading very quickly and all I get is a blank white page - no error message or anything). I tried going to the site directly (wwwDOTgmailDOTcom, gmailDOTcom - same problem) and accessing it through a google search (gmail, gmail login, gmail mobile, etc.), but no dice. It works fine on wifi. Is there a way to get it to work, or has anyone else had this problem? I have Java, flash, and plugins all enabled in my settings, and everything else seems to be working great both on 3G and wifi.
If that doesnt work, does anyone know if it requires a lot of data to temporarily sync someone's account to my email app and then remove the email account when they're done? I had to do that to get my friend's account to work, but I wouldn't want to do it all the time if that's what I need to do for a friend to check their email on my phone.
Thanks in advance to anyone who helps out. I know it seems like a dumb question, but I'm new to Android and couldn't find anything in any of the settings menus. I assume it's because Google wants you to set up accounts for syncing, but in this case it's just for people who want to log in quickly and check their email.
(sort of a bump)
Since nobody seems to know what my problem is, could someone please check if they have any difficulties logging into gmail's website on 3G (NOT wifi) and let me know if it works? I haven't rooted or anything, so it would still help me know if it's a phone problem or something with my settings. Thanks.
i have same problem
No gmail and no downloads from google market app on 3G. All work fine through WIFI. (Droid 2 from Verizon, now using on other network).
whenever i download an app via android market web store, or send a link from chrome to phone, my phone will NEVER receive it.
it has worked flawlessly before, but seems to have stopped after i rooted.
any way to fix this?
phone: nexus s
Sending links to your phone requires an app called Google Chrome To Phone. You need to start up the app and agree to the terms before it will receive links, so give that a shot, even if you feel you have done that before.
Both sending links and having apps automatically installed rely on a Google Talk connection. You'll want to also check if Talk is connected as well.

i've used chrome to phone many times before, and have uninstalled/reinstalled on desktop and phone, logged in with another account, and nothing is working! i've also downloaded many apps from android market web store with no issues until recently when i rooted.
and it worked before without me being signed into google talk.
Try to reinstall the market can work in it
You may want to make sure you can log into Talk just to confirm the talk connection is working for things other than push. But if you know that already works...
I think it's time to go back to your Nandroid backup you took before rooting. If you're using a custom ROM, it may also be worth taking a backup and going back to stock to see if that improves the situation.
Then when you try rooting again, just test C2DM every now and then to isolate the step that causes things to stop working properly.

i had same problem try to reinstall market
lol I have no idea I'd my talk connection is working or not. when i launch talk, there is a little 'x' button beside 'Offline' under my gmail account, and when i sign in, the 'x' button is still there, although i have seemed to sign in. i dont have any contacts in google talk so i cant test if its properly working.
will try redownloading market to see if that works as well, thanks!
ill save unrooting to a last resort i guess :/
update:
ive tried redownloading market, but nothing changed. when i downloaded an app from the android market on the desktop, i didnt receive it on my phone, although the button said 'installed' on my computer.
i've also tried removing my account from the phone, and then downloading an app. the market (on desktop) still said 'installed' when there wasn't any phone linked to the email...
honestly i have no idea how to fix this.
Every time a try to flash a new rom I get this error message. It starting happening a few days back. Doing a google search I can see that people have experienced this on many devices.
I have tried a Factory Data Reset to no avail. I have also tried the youtube trick but that didn't work either:
a. Add YouTube app and login with gmail account
b. Go into Gmail App and add account if needed.
c. Sign into Gmail account with username and password
d. Go through login process
I have a UK Xoom WiFi and the roms I flash are Wingray. Anyone in here experienced the same issue?
Found a solution to this issue. It really is the weirdest thing - in the initial setup, if I do not set the time zone to London/Dublin and do not specify a Google account it seems to work. Once the rom has been installed I then go into Gmail and set up the account that way.
But, as said, this only works when changing the time zone during the initial setup. Once installed I can go in and change it to the correct time in Settings.
Can someone help me fix/address this problem? I tried all methods I know yet nothing happened.
Whats the exact error message mate?
Error says "Cant establish a reliable connection to the server. This could be a temporary problem or your android device may not be provisioned for data services. If it continues, call Customer Care."
Oh, sorry. Its not only the google play store, but the entire google account that i cannot log in. My phone is rooted. Is there something that I can do with it's root? Thank you very much mate.

The message clearly tells that there is a problem with your internet connection and no problem in Play Store
Thank you for your reply. But I have a good internet connection all the while. I can access my browser and other apps that require connection. I even tried connecting via wifi but still, the same error appears. I even tried setting up a new google account thru browser but I couldnt set up one. Is there some kind of a bug that prohibits an android device to log in a google account in it? Thank you very much for your replies, very much appreciated.
Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6 G920P.02
Android 5.1.1
Rooted, No ROMS
I am very, VERY confused. This makes absolutely no sense to me. I believe my phone is just fried but I will find out when I take it into the sprint store tomorrow. I will most likely get a new/replacement phone but they will have no idea what caused the problem and I need to figure out how this happened so it won't happen again. I'm also very curious as I don't understand at all.
The problem: It started with me not being able to connect to the internet on ANY of my apps. No crashes or anything, just no connectivity to the internet. Calls and SMS still worked like normal. After calling sprint support they told me dial ##72786#, which then just simply broke calls and SMS. Now NOTHING works.
What caused the problem: This is where I am most confused. I was trying to setup a VPN (purevpn, to be exact) on my Xbox One. In the process of this, I was modifying my router settings on my Windows 8 PC, plugged in a 2nd router, and constantly turned the wifi off and on. I was using my phone to test if the wifi was still working. (e.g. going to google.com on firefox or launching clash of clans...literally that was it) The only thing that I can think may have messed it up was a step in settings up the VPN. On my computer, after I installed the purevpn software I located myself to "Network and Sharing Center", then clicked "Adapter Settings", then clicked on "Pure VPN", then "Sharing", then checked the box "Allow other network users to connect through this computer's internet connection", and lastly from the drop down menu, selected "Local Area Network." This allowed all devices on my network to use the VPN. Somehow this messed up my phone that hard?

Steps I have taken to fix this: I tried rebooting my times a million times. Then I cleared DNS cache in firefox and tried to connect. Then I tried hard rebooting my phone to flush DNS cache. Then I called sprint support, who told me dial ##72786#. After dialing this, calling and SMS DO NOT WORK. "Hands free activation" starting running after dialing that number and fails to work everytime. When I wasn't able to call the phone rep back, I used the sprint online chat support. I told the online rep what happened, and they assured me the only way to fix this was to factory reset my phone. As frustrated as I was, I did it. After the factory reboot, my phone STILL CAN'T CONNECT TO ****. Exactly how it was before the reboot, except I lost all of my stuff. I have done countless google searches and am clueless and need help.
Google will push all your stuff back to the phone after you log into your account. But you'll need the internet for that.
How did you get root?

I really don't remember, It was months ago. I paid $30 for it though and have never had issues with it.
Just brought it into a sprint tech store and they fixed by putting in a fresh sim card, reseting the phone, cache, dns, and everything they could reset. After that did not work they flashed an updated version of my phones software on the phone, which removed the root , and fixed the issue.
I explained what I did to all of the employees in the store (I was the only one there) and they were all as clueless as me.
Does anyone know what could have possibly caused this?
