[Need Help] Problem With Connection to Accounts - HTC Desire S

Hi Guys!
I am having strange problem with my DS.
I cannot connect to my Google account,Facebook App is not working and...
Well to cut the story short pretty much any app that requires connection to the internet+credentials will not connect.Amazon appstore,Tweetcaster,Tweetdroid,Friendcaster...you name it...the only one that works is official Twitter App(weird).
When I'm tring set up my Google account all I'm getting is "Cannot establish reliable connection..." I know I am connected to the internet cos I'm writing this post on my phone.browsing internet is the only thing I can do.
Now I was searching net for this problem and the only suggestion was HARD Reset.I can rule that out cos I went even further.I flashed 5 different ROMs and problem still persist.
Next thing on my mind was there is something wrong with my carrier.Nope.rang them up and they claim all is ok on their side.I'm on 3UK and I have iPhone4 as well on 3 UK.on iPhone4 everything works flawlessly so I swapped SIM cards.guess what...the same thing on DESIRE S.
I am no noob and I went through literally all the platforms being able to solve 99% of my problems on my own but this one seems to be bigger than me.
If anyone came across this problem before or knows the answer please help.
Thank you in advance.

Okay, lets try to solve this one quickly.
First, some history...
When did this start happening?
Was everthing working well initially, and then suddenly this problem popped up, or has it been like this from the beginning?
Have you recently done any kind of modding or flashing to your phone prior to this?
Then, some diagnostic tests.
Do you have wifi?
If you do, Can you connect?
If you can, do your apps work well with the wifi connection?

Hi
Sorry i forgot to state this in first post.
Yes I have wifi and I when I'm connected to it everything works great.can connect to anything.
I did flash few ROMs while trying to fix this problem.no luck there.
And yes.it all started all of a sudden.before I was one happy DS owner.

Could you please go to Setting> Wireless & Networks> Mobile Networks and check if toggling Network mode helps?
Also make sure that you've selected the correct Access Point Name (The APN should say www)
Let me know what happens.

Nope.tried switching mobile networks on/off.nothing.airplane mode on/off also no luck.APN is right and I can confirm that cos I can browse Internet.it seems that downloading is fine but as soon I try "send something out" like email or tokens to connect to certain services it fails.

Must say i'm at a loss here. Usually whenever i have issues like this, going through the steps mentioned above rectifies it.
Sorry brother, i'm out of ideas here. Will try asking around for more. I hope someone with a better understanding of this will be able to help you out.
Best of luck!!

Thank you anyway.in this case any advise is good.i bet it's something stupid.

Have you tried different kernels? (Clutching at straws (but worth a punt)).
When you wipe before a clean install what do you do? Try the link in my sigi.

Any progress with your problem? If not I suggest you pm ben_pyett or olyloh or lowveld.
They're very good with this stuff and very helpful...

Hi guys.sorry I have been off the forum for a while.
This is totally strange.i found out that this is happening only at certain place.when I am at work problem is there but as soon as I get home everything works fine.it must be something related to cell I am connected to while in my work area.my colleague told me he is suffering from the same thing.he has HTC Desire HD and custom ROM on board and he is also 3UK customer.but what I don't understand at all is that my iPhone works like a charm using the same network.obviously I called customer service again and they claim there is nothing wrong with the network.
Thank you for all your suggestions guys.

The benefit of 1.65.17.10

OK, we all know the problem with radio 1.65.17.10... DO NOT FLASH IT, IF YOU WANT TO CHANGE RADIOS!!!
I actually found a major benefit (for me) to use it.
I had been experiencing problems with ATT here in California, where my data connection would just stop working, despite showing it being connected. The fix would be easy, just disconnect the data session and reconnect and it would be fine again for awhile (anywhere from an hour to a day). The problem for me is that I use direct-push email for work, when the data connection would fail, there was no warning of a problem. Emails would go missing until I checked Activesync, noticed the failure, and reinitiated the data connection. Very annoying, and easy to miss important messages...
So after troubleshooting with ATT, to no avail, and numberous trys with various radios and ROMs here on XDA, I decided to try it.
My issue has been gone for 4 days now. It is possible that Dutty's new Hybrid v2 helped, but all of his previous ROMs had the problem. So, it was either the new radio, or the new ROM.
DO NOT INSTALL THIS RADIO, YOU CAN'T REMOVE IT CURRENTLY!!!! (but it worked well for me)

Just be sure that you're kaiser is "security unlockt" before installing 1.65.17.10, then there is no problem to change to another radio.

Hold in the camera button then hit reset. On the top of the bootloader screen should say "security unlocked"
Com'on guys. This is a PUBLIC forum. As long as he follow the rules, and I think he is fine. lately I have see so many "police" wants ppl to follow he or her rules.
I understand how difficult to read the same post again and again.
His topic might not interest you, but here I am. I like to know what are the benefits from previous user.
Please do not judge people by your standard.
BTW, what I do not like to see is: "good job", "you the best", "Dutty, you did it again"...etc all the good words. That is what I call a waste of my time. But you see hundreds of posts like that. This is just an example. What I like to see is the "pro" and "con", so I can narrow down the actual benfit of flash to a new ROM. I have never see anyone here saying anthing about this. Everytime when a new ROM update, I probably have to read more than 50% on good words. Tell me about that!!

Being a chef, putting out a special rom for the public takes a great deal of time. They need the certain feedback from users on the rom. The first few posts are cluttered with the good jobs and great rom, but this is the thing to thank the chefs for their time and efforts.
As for this thread, I know its dug up in there, but people have stated the benefits in the 1.65.17.10 radio thread. The Kaiser ROM development forum is really cluttered with a lot of threads so having these redundent threads just makes the development forum more cluttered.

Motorcross,
Tq for yourfeedback. I face the same problem with what u had but mine is more serious!!! My EDGE connection (I am in Malaysia using DiGi) lasts only minutes. 50% of the time a reconnections do not get my connection back and the wait for the disconnection of "E" takes 2-3minutes too. So far as you had mention, all the ROMs and RADIOs i have tried did not solve this issue and no one here had any clue to this. I am really TEMPTED to test this radio from HELL but am worried I may get more hell should it not solve my problem.. Appreciate your input here

Feedback is far better thanks than just "thanks." If people are saying thanks, then they are probably using the ROM, and if they're using the ROM they should have something to say about it. Even if it's just a few things they like.

I have asked this in the Dutty's ROM section but no answer - so let me try here. I was wondering if this radio would solve a big problem I have had ever since I switched to Dutty's ROM. In HSDPA mode I have lost the feature of simultaneous data and voice. Before I flashed over from the AT&T stock ROM I was able to stream from my Slingbox or Sirius Radio applications and, when I got a phone call, the phone would ring and I could make the call. Post call, the data session would still be active.
With all the Dutty ROMs I have tried once the call comes in - or is placed - the data session ends. BTW - If I switch my SIM over to my Blackjack the simultaneous data/voice feature returns - the BJ has a cooked WM 6.1 ROM also.
Have you found that this radio resolves those issues??

Hmm, I never had that problem and still don't. I have tested simultaneous data with my phone and it works fine pre/post installing this radio.

Well, I wish I could provide you some good advice on that one, but your problem is quite different than mine. Have you tried changing the GPRS authendication menthod? PAP vs CHAP?
Odd - I have tried a bunch of the Kaiser, Sena and Niki radios with the same issues. Once I go back to the stock AT&T ROM all is well. Definitely not worth running the AT&T ROM for the feature; I may try one of the Non-Dutty ROMs just for a test.

Cant connect to wi-fi

Im using the new CMDA mightyrom, and trying to setup my wi-fi. But everytime i try it says 'connecting....available...un-available' i turn wifi back on and it repeats. it does other stuff to but it changes depending on what kind of wep key i say it is. its just a standard wep key. Anyone please help before i use all my data usage . O and fyi I'm on a Telus TP2
I find sometimes that rebooting the router helps.
found the issue. MAKE SURE U REMEMBER TO RUN ANY CARRIER SPECIFIC MATERIAL. I got caught up in the wonderfulness of rom flashin i forgot to run my telus.cab all good now, hope everyone is loving their new roms

DFT Gold V1 For Sprint Wifi stops working??

Hey guys I couldn't find the forum for the ROM so i had to make a new thread i apologize for that. I got the ROM download link in one of the other threads someone had just posted a link to download it. its the DFT freedom V1 For sprint HTC Arrive. Anyways, the issue that i am having is that when i put my phone on WiFi it works for about 5 minutes and than it just stops working. As soon as i take it off of WiFi the data or app loads right up. I was curious if anyone else that is on Sprint and is running this ROM has had any problems? or if someone could please post a link to the thread with that ROM so that i can see if maybe there is an update? I love love love the ROM but this WiFi is really bugging me, i use WiFi religiously.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I've always had this problem, at least in Mango. It's quite annoying and I have to toggle my wifi off and back on again. If there is a fix I'd sure like to know.
Are you connecting anything to your shared WiFi? Because if you don't the connection automatically shuts down. I believe it does this this to save on battery and to save on data.
Sent from my PC93100 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
Yea I've had the same issue not really sure how to fix it. Hopefully it's fixed in the next release
Ran into something somewhat similar, will have to look around a bit but I found a fix is to disable Data Connection within the Cellular settings when you want WiFi to work. :/
I'll see what I can dig up otherwise.
The problem I have is that the Wifi MAC ID changes everytime the phone is rebooted or started after a shutdown. Since I filter by MAC in my router, it is a major pain to keep changing my router settings everytime the phone runs out of juice.
So this is a problem with Mango in general and not just the DFT rom? That's good to know. Thanks so much for the tip on shutting down the data connection when using WiFi. I will actually give that a goski.
On another note, does anyone on sprint have trouble sending picture messages? Me and my wife both have this HTC arrive on sprint and our pic mails fail almost everytime and same with receiving the pic messages. We need to turn off WiFi, restart the phone and than about 80% of the time it works. I seen on thi9s ROM that it has a spot for son setting and maybe if I fill that out it will work?
Also, does anyone have a link to the rom I mentioned in the first post? I'm on the HTC arrive sprint dft v1 for gold and was curious if there is any updates on the rom.
One last thing lol, is there anyway to do a complete backup of the phone and apps so that when we flash to a new rom it backs everything up? Thanks in advance!

I had problems with MMS failing all the time too. I fixed it by changing the network profile and prl. After that it's never had a problem. Hope that helps.
So i wentto settings than celluar and i did the update profile and theupdate prl and my picture messages still fail every single time. So i dont know what is going on. My wife has the same phone and the same rom and she also has the same problem. I dont beliebve it to be rom related because we both had the issue on sprints stock mango wp7 rom.
Recently i have been having trouble with my phone going and staying in 1x mode. i dont know what is causing it and i looked around for the APN setting thati would use for this phone and wasnt able to find ones that matched what it asked for in there. Does anyone have the APN settings? I just hard reset my device to see if that fixes it.
Is there a dedicated thread about the DFT rom? i keep getting 1x on my phone making it pretty useless and i checked my wifes phone and same story, i keep posting my questions here because i dont want tot pollute and i cant find the DFT rom for Sprint thread if there is one. any help?
or anyone know the proper APN settings?
Just wanted to bump on this. This WiFi issue is brutal. Is there no official support channel for this DFT ROM? I'm going to have to move to a different ROM soon, as it doesn't seem to fail over gracefully from WiFi to data.

Mobile data issue

Hi guys!
It's horrible... I really don't want any more. My sensation seems to be a little bit angry and so it doesn't let me access the mobile network.
I live in austria and my carrier is "3".
The issue only happens in sense roms (i tried all ICS sense roms here). Actually i'm using CM9 and it works without any problems BUT i love sense and i want it back.
The issue (and things i've tried so far):
only the uploadarrow blinks at the "H" symbol in the taskbar and i can't access the internet while this happens...
while i'm surfing with my browser (maxthon) it mostly works
in apps like "funny jokes" or "draw something" it doesn't work
the APN settings are correct
i also tried to edit the build.prop, but without success
So that's the actual situation and i really need your professional help. Please tell me everything you would try! I'm really grateful for every tip!
I'm sorry for my probably bad english, but i think you guys are the only group of people who could help me and so i try it in this language

Hi,
Go to the market and find an app called "Getril".
See if you have the optimum combination of radio/RIL.
Sent telepathically from my pyramid
oh... such a speedy answer ^^
thx for the clue, but i checked that already - it matches.
You've got the opposite problem that most people have with mobile data. For most people it works perfectly on Sense and the H blinks on and off when on CM9/10.
But that's for T Mobile USA users. For 3 users maybe it's backwards.
In the USA (and this may be a USA only answer) the problem may have had something to do with how the ROM differentiated between APN values for MMS and full Internet.
Check your APN's and make sure they match what they are supposed to. Unfortunately I can't tell you what they are supposed to be because I don't use the 3 network, but a google search should easily provide you with that information. If your APN looks like its supposed to....then that's tougher to solve.
hey skipjacks!
hmm... ok - i didn't know that the t-mobile issue is like mine but opposite. Interesting.....
Would it probably help, to install this patch for t-mobile users?
The APN settings are correct, i checked them really often. Or did you mean something different i didn't understand? :silly:

No that's exactly what I meant.
If you are talking about the ARHD path Malybru was refferencing, yeah sure. Flash it. Can't hurt. Worst it can do it bork up the ROM's compatibility with the 3 network. But since you would be getting to Sense by retoring a backup or a fresh install anyway, who cares? Worst you'd have to do is restore the backup again.
If it doesn't work though we're back to square one. Have you searched the thread of the Sense rom you want to use? Or all Sense roms for that matter to see if this is a common issue with Sense and the 3 network? Maybe a google search too. If there's a common element between your phone and someone elses it's a lot easier to diagnose (mainly because someone may have already diagnosed it and solved the problem! Ha!)
Ok guys...
The problem is, that there are only a few people from austria here and the chance that someone has the same problem with a sensation combined with the 3 network is really small...
But anyway - i searched now several minutes and didn't find any helpful answer. This circumstance makes me a little bit sad...
The second thing is, that i don't know where to find this patch for the tmous issue... It would be very nice, if someone could share a link to this patch.
So if there is any advice - tell me!
greetz and thx

Hi,
T mob link is HERE
Just above the normal downloads.
Well, thank you! That's unfair, because it's so small... *g*
I'm going to try it immediately!
Sorry for doubleposting, but i tried the tmous patch already and there is no improvement.
I felt confident that this could work, but it doesn't. Same thing. Upload Arrow shows me, that there is traffic, but no download --> nothing works.
2 extra infos:
The problem is NOT, that i never have a connection. The mobile data works often, but sometimes i have to wait minutes to get online again. As long as i'm using my phone actively, the connection works but especially after being in standby mode several minutes it stops working... That's very annoying.
Second thing:
What's the difference between normal roms and sense roms? I checked the build.prop in both versions and there are many differences between them. Especially the part with the mobile data settings is much different in cm roms... Could there be a solution? Sorry - i'm very interested in these things, but i'm a noob at android developing. Please give me an explanation
okay.... after i had done all things you recommended, i flashed an GB RUU. When i use GB it works.
Afterwards i also flashed the original OTA ICS update - same as usual. Mobile data doesn't work.
Please tell me why!! Even with an original ICS an no root or something like that, it doesn't work.
Meanwhile i also contacted my provider. They said that there is everything fine...
Any suggestions? There must be a little thing on my cell, that prevents mobile data to work... Strange, isn't it?

Edit: sorry 4 triple posting But it's so important for me...

Issues with mobile data - Wont stay on LTE - Switches constantly.

Hello! Thanks for taking time to help me out!
Here is what is happening; I just recently updated my phone to Marshmallow and am running XtraSmooth with EXKernel. I live in China and had to follow the tutorial to change one of my bands to get LTE here. Of course everything was working fine before I updated to M6.
I can go into the 'Testing' Menu (*#*#4636#*#*) and switch to LTE only and LTE works great, however I then can not receive or send calls or text messages. When I do switch to LTE Only the LTE connection is usually much stronger than when not on LTE. For now I leave it on LTE/GSM (auto).
When I wake up my phone it is usually connected to 3g or edge, after a while it connects to H but then jumps back to 3g, and never seems to connect to LTE.
Is there a new feature I am not aware of that is causing this issue that I could turn off?
Thanks Again,
Chris

sounds like you need to downgrade. the mod probably doesn't work with your carrier on the newest update. I don't know for sure but your can ask in the thread where your got the LTE Band mods from.

Thanks for your reply! I really appreciate your help!
This is the thread I got the hack/mod from for the LTE bands. I did re-perform the hack to verify it is still functioning. A few users in that thread reported it working with Marshmallow.
I was just out and about and I did notice LTE being used occasionally, sometime working sometimes not -- Oddly enough H seemed to not work at all giving DNS errors in chrome.
I am about to just restore my phone back to Lollipop with the twrp image I have... But I really do like to stay update to date with the latest OS. I also wanted to try a Chinese ROM like MIUI but they are still stuck on kitkat for the N5 and I don't want to go that far back... If the phone is still performing poorly and no one knows what is going on in a day or two I may revert back just to save myself the headache! I may also try a different ROM like Chroma to see if it helps.
If anyone else has ideas please let me know! Thank you!

Last thought it make sure you wiped everything in TWRP before flashing the ROM and make sure the modem you're using is marshmallow compatible. if you performed the steps on modem that isn't compatible, that could have caused your issues. I hope this is helpful to you. and feel free to hit the like :silly::good:

I don't know a lot about phones... When you say modem when referring to phones do you mean radio? I flashed the stock M6 factory Google Image by running the flash-all.bat. After that I flashed the ROM. Should doing this have taken care of that
Should I attempt to flash some other things? If so can you point me in the right direction.
Also it seems to be working a little better, steadily connected to LTE, however I get many many DNS errors; again I live in China. I am going to try to set custom DNS that I know works well here, when I get home from school. Is there a good app for this?

first, when you see modem and radio, those are the same file. and yes you flashed it correctly using the "flash-all.bat." :good: so you have the latest modem for the nexus 5. The DNS errors could mean many things. DNS depends on carrier, proxys they may be using, phone settings, etc. also for next time before you flash any files, read the stickies and rules. If not people may get mad at you & call you names if you ask question that already have answers inside of the rules and stickies

focus on fixing the LTE problem first completely than deal with the DNS so you don't confuse the problems.

I think the LTE issue has mostly resolved itself. My house must be in a very poorly covered area and so I gets disconnected.
The big thing now is dns issues... Is there a good way to change it or do tests for issues?
Thanks

why is the DNS an issue, what exactly is the problem?

I'm sorry, this must seem crazy. So when I am connected to WiFi I can surf the internet just fine (as well as we can here) when on 3G or H data connection it works. But when I'm on LTE I cannot browse. Chrome gives a DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN error (for websites like bing.com and baidu.com [like chinese google]).

hmmm interesting. have you tried google searching the issue? someone else who has your phone and carrier may have had the issue, nexus 5 is pretty common.
also what carrier do you have?

I have a little, and I really cant find anything. It seems I may not be getting an IP at all. I d/l a DNS Switcher app and it has a button to show current network settings and ip displays as 0.0.0.0 dns as 0.0.0.0
I may have to modify my searches.

Honestly if those settings are coming up using the cell network, idk. Be certain your APN settings are correct since that could effect it. Lastly if that didn't happen with out the custom radio than you may be having some issues with the mod. go back to the thread and make sure you did everything like they said. also try using a different browser, I heard something about google and China not being good with each other

I really appreciate you sticking around and helping me out! I am at school or work all day so I only have short evenings to trouble shoot. So here is what I experienced today;
I can now steadily connect to LTE (even in areas I was having trouble with before). Sometimes, when I connect to wifi then disconnect and therefore reconnect to LTE it doesn't handle the switch-over very well and gives issues with the connection (the NXDOMAIN errors or, more rarely, no internet connection at all). I downloaded LTE Discovery which showed me I am connected on band 3 which means the 'hack' successfully applied. I also asked over on their post and they said It will stay across a factory update. To fix the connection errors I can usually restart my phone or play with the APNs (switch back and forth), merely turning data off then back on does not fix the issue.
My next idea is to switch ROMs then downgrade. but oddly enough, right now, no matter what I do it works... This is nuts, haha.

No problem, and try different modems first, that could clear up the issue. than try some different ROMs and going back to stock like you said.. Also you never mentioned what you doing when you get those DNS related errors. don't forget to hit thanks man, def appreciated.
also, be sure no one else in your area, with your service provider is having the same issue.
