I've searched, and all I found was the trick to *#*#4636#*#* then cypher off, radio off, radio on, cypher on
... which doesn't work.
Here's my issue: The market works.
I mean, it only works on Wifi. If I turn off wifi, or head to a location without wifi, and I try to access the market it gives a data connection error - same with other apps. I have no idea why, but only certain ones are affected.
For example, on 3G/4G, I can get onto the Internet using the standard web browser, or browse, google+, facebook, twitter, etc, all just fine, quick as ever. but try to open the Market and it times out waiting for a response? try again on Wifi, and it takes no time at all to pop up.
Here's where it gets really weird. I've noticed that HTTPS causes a lot of slowdowns on my APN, I noticed it with my previous cellphones, going to HTTPS sites, and it's an order of magnitude slower, which, if the Market (and others) are using SSL, could cause the issue, especially if their timeout is shorter than the browser - but the weird thing is, Twitter is setup to use HTTPS always, and it does not seem to take very long to get updates from the server when refreshing my feed.
I'm confused. I just want the Market to work whenever I need it to.
Any ideas?

I have a very irritating problem I can't figure out. With many password protected sites (like yahoo!mail, bloglines, gmail, etc.) i cannot get past the username/password. I keep getting back to it no matter what I input.
The most crazy thing is that this behaviour happens only if I am on mobile data connection (3G or GPRS) but not if I have a wired or wi-fi connection! Also it does not depend on the browser (it happens both wiht ie and opera).
I have absolutely no more ideas of what the reason can be. Does anybody have a clue?
P.S. Before getting the raphael I was using another smartphone and didn't have this problem either :-(
Thanks
The application Facebook was ever too slow and I do not using it. I was login from browsers and everything was okay. Few days ago in all browsers I have, was impossible to see any image content on site of Facebook. So I download thems application but there was same problem. It loading pretty fast but it skip to load the photos. Even after selecting a thumbnail and open the photo I get only the black background of the image viewer of Facebook. But today I discover a very strange case. This problem with Facebook images is existing only on wifi networks. All other sites loading images without any bugs. When I am connected with my mobile data Facebook works perfect. I tryed too many times with switching to wifi and mobile data this morning. It load the photos only over mobile data. The net on my home router is much faster for sure but Facebook works better on the slower mobile data. 90 % of my surfing is browsing photos with huge resolution in hundred sites. The problem is only on Facebook site. At least is working over the mobile data and I can still use it. On my laptop everything is okay all the story of the post is about my android phone. Any ideas what stoppes Facebook working normal over wifi?

Well ayydin, your not alone. This is a huge problem for them at the moment and there is seemingly little known as to what is suddenly causing this, and when a fix might appear. Just be reassured that there are a million + other prople out there with the same problems. FYI, I tried many fixes, nothing solved the problem in the long run.
Whenever I launch Facebook while on Wifi, it tries to go to the mobile connection. But since Mobile Data is off, it doesn't work.
I go into LogCat and see something about "ipv6dns current tech is 14" message.
I've tried using SetDNS to bind IPv6 to IPv4, but no go... Facebook is the primary problem, but it seems like other apps (browser, twitter) tries the mobile network first instead of the Wifi... and every time it's due to IPv6 in Logcat... Still don't have an answer though.
I sometimes experience the same problem. It's so irritating that I practically stopped using FB on my phone...
I didn't start most of these apps and yet they are still running when I check. Some of them I can understand, like the market related ones may be checking for updates, but the Sportacular, Shazam, and Google+ were not even touched. Any ideas?
Most web dependant apps that have network access permission will start up if they detect a wifi connection.
Coming from the ground up
I wish there was a way to turn that off, it's annoying.
Hi,
Wondering if anyone has run into the following issue with their Pixel. My phone is an international model (G-2PW4200) and I bought it exactly a month ago.
The issue is this: I seem to never be able to download any decent size file (e.g. a video on social media sites or apps like Facebook, YouTube, Whatsapp, etc., or to download any app on the Google Play store) via WiFi without the download getting "stuck" half way, sometimes not even at 10%. The download would get stuck indefinitely, and only resume once I disable WiFi and start downloading via LTE. Sometimes it also comes back if I just disable WiFi and enable it again. Another problem I have is that my phone seems to go offline when it's not being used for extended periods of time (that being in the 5-10 minute range given I look at it almost every 10 minutes) despite having WiFi during sleep set to be always on. I can tell this because when I try to log in to something like Whatsapp Web it complains that my phone is offline, and this is a problem that never happened with me with my previous phone in the same setting.
A few points to keep in mind:
1- I have "Keep WiFi on during Sleep" set to "Always"
2- This happens everywhere (at home, work, friends', public WiFi, etc.) so it's not related to just my router's setup, and it happens every single day and almost every single time.
4- System is "up to date" and I have the latest update installed (Android 7.1.1, build NOF26V)
3- I'm still able to browse web pages (via Chrome), and browse apps like Facebook, Whatsapp, etc. without getting interruptions or showing any signs of disconnect. It's only the above two issues that I see when downloading big chunks of data, and for some reason my phone appearing to be offline during sleep when it shouldn't be.
Any idea what may be wrong here and how I can fix this? I really would like to keep this phone, but this is really becoming frustrating.
Thanks.
Have you factory reset?

Yes. And ironically enough I ran into the same problem immediately while restoring my backup as the phone was trying to redownload the previously installed apps. It would get stuck not downloading anything but not complain about a lost connection until I disable WiFi and switch to cellular data.
This reminded me that the first time I ran into the problem was also the very first time I used the phone when also downloading my apps.
contact google and get warranty service
can you test your wifi performance with another device?
and also try some download manager like ADM and check download with it.

Given that this happens everywhere, not just with my home WiFi, I know the issue is specific to my Pixel. Unfortunately no one at work has a Pixel to try it, but all other devices connected to the same WiFi spots are fine.
I was told by someone that disabling LTE and sticking to 3G cellular data will fix my WiFi issues. Will be trying that at work today.
I have the latest firmware on my asus router with all udates and fixes.I use the router plain and simple with no features like icloud or other things. I am alone so it is just I that use wifi on my mobile. Often when i use fakebook or browser it will not load and is just spinning...and wifi is connected(i also check this when it is happening). So to solve it i have to turn off wifi and turn on 4g.and use that a few seconds and then back to wifi..then it is ok until next time it happen. And it happen more often on browser than fakebook. I also tried to check out other browsers but same result. Tried to search internett and xda but no sucsess....Does anybody know anything about this problem?
And maybe it is just the way things are. I also quite often have to restart my computer when youtube videos(often) or Netflix(only sometimes) wont play..just black screen in youtube websitescreen.
I have had this problem for a while now but nobody answer mer or acknologedge this problem. I have posted this in general in Note 3 thread and in a Merl router forum.
