[Q] (Q) Bluetooth connection error - HTC Inspire 4G

Good day,
Hoping someone can assist. I just re-installed Gingerbeast and now I cannot get my BT devices to connect.
I wiped cache, including dalvik. I did backup my BT settings via Titanium, which may be the issue.
It recognizes the devices and says it is paired but not connected.
Also, the car now prompts me to enter a password, which it never did before. I enter the code and it still will not connect, just keeps asking me for a new code.
Any assistance, welcome as always!

You are most likely correct. I think Titanium caused your issues. It may have backed some other system data up for bluetooth that is incompatible with your new ROM. Have you tried to remove all connections and start fresh?

Word to the wise, never back up or restore system data as it can cause huge issues. I would reflash with a full wipe and restore only apps and app data and see what happens

Please Help, Data Disappeared

Please help, I was trying out a program called Toggle Data Widget, and I noticed that it wasn't working, so I uninstalled it. Now when I turned my phone on the data connection is gone. I tried reinstalling the app, and nothing happens. I don't know what to do, and I don't want to restore, because I haven't had a chance to back it up yet. Please help. Thanks a lot.
What do you mean the data connection is gone? Which icon would that be?
I mean the little 3G symbol is gone, nothing is there anymore, and when I try connecting, I get an error saying, "a network error has occurred."
Try reinstalling it, set the widget to where it is turned on, then just reboot the phone. I had it mess up a few times when I was trying that one out. I downloaded one called GT-Widget Data that works quite a bit better.
Thanks a lot, it seems to be working now. I wonder if I should try uninstalling it again.
You should be able to uninstall it safely now.
Most of the utilities to turn off 3G data mangle the access point settings that is stored in a database. When you uninstall the utilties with data disabled, they remain mangled.
Another way to fix it quickly btw is to just use Reset Default in the Captivate's Settings.

apps wont install from the market?

Just set up my Transformer and have gone into the market, when i click on install for any app, and ok the permissions, it does nothing, just sits on the info screen for the app i was looking at. My data connection is fine.
any ideas?
I have tried clearing the cache and data from the market app in manage apps.
Not sure what was going on, It has now started downloading ok.
delete the tread if you like.
sorry.
Actually, got my new Transformer today...it proceeds to download but then errors out...rebooted...same thing...can't download or update any apps.
same here
Had mine just over a day, can't install anything from market. Google says to log onto Google talk, but THAT does not work either ... just times out.
But can surf the web just fine, and navigate around Market just fine.
So now what?
thanks, Ian
Have you tried clearing data and cache for the market?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes, cleared the data, there was nothing in the cache. Seems to be a common problem, and various different solutions work for some people but not others (on assorted devices). I have mailed Google but so far no response .... have no problems downloading stuff to my Galaxy S2 over same WiFi network ...
bump
Got the same issue since I got a failed firmware update. A fix would be great
this happened to me too, downloading from android market is a hit-and-miss thing... sometimes it downloads on the first try, sometimes i have to retry it a couple of times before it finally download, and somerimes it wont ever download at all (sometimes it leaves the downloading notification stuck)
I have also seen this behaviour - apps would download, then nothing. Clicking on 'INSTALL' again on the Market store entry would usually then do a successful download and install.
Solution?
Can you guys try this, which seems to work for me (as in: after installing Custom ROMs, is what worked ...)
1. set you phone into WiFi Tethering Mode.
2. connect Transformer to use WiFi via the phone
3. log onto market and initiate download.
4. should work fine. Then disconnect from phone, use normal WiFi connection, and it should work.
I've had long discussions with Google about this. They told me to open a bunch of ports on my router, which seemed to help, but is not THE permanent solution. I think Google, for some reason, needs a fix on your position before they validate you initially, which is what they get when you connect via a cellphone.
The ports in question are:
outgoing TCP and UDP connections to 443 + 5222-5443 port range.
Note: there is often a delay when ordering something from Market via website, and getting it sent to device. This is normal. Downloading via Market App should be faster.
Good luck.
Cheers, Ian
I have the same problem...I've tried every possible "fix" and nothing really works...I'm running stock not even rooted, I've had this problem ever since I got the 3.1 ota. Hoping for a fix in 3.2
I've noticed this too. I select an app to download, then I can see the progress bar of the download and then it changes to "Waiting to install" and just stays there. What I usually do is click the "back" button (or touch it or whatever), then click the app again and push the "install" button again. Then it installs fine.
It's not a deal breaker, but it is kind of annoying.
You can try downloading the newer market. I couldn't download apps with the old market, so I downloaded the new market .apk and can download apps from there.
Did you find the apk in these forums?

Did a system wipe of my device (with backup of course), everything is working again as it was ( after recreating the account ), clearing the cache/data has not helped.
I have the exact same issue on my tf as ferparedes.

you can do as many clear cache,clear data,wipe dalvik cache,wipe cache,force stop etc you want...you wont do a thing.
the solution is one and follow my steps cause this thing almost drove me crazy for a week and yes,i could not install anything.
1.erase everything from the internal memory of your transformer connected to your computer. i mean,from the pc move them all to recycle bin.
2. go to recovery menu,and do a wipe data and wipe cache.then do a wipe dalvik cache and then fresh install from install from sd card the revolver rom.
3.HERE IS THE TRICKY PART.
after the first boot,you must do a factory reset of the tablet from the option inside the honeycomb,from the settings.
(NOT from the recovery menu)
i dont remember where this is,i think in development,you will find out.
after the factory reset you will see and android yellow box and the tab will do a reset and erase everything.
Voila! The market will work like a dream and you will never have again problem.
Trust me...i searched a lot for this problem...its the only solution.
they say its a bug in the android secure folder or something and only with a reformat of the file structure it can be solved.
I noticed that disconnecting and reconnecting Google talk solves that installation problem from the market.

[Q] Rooted Galaxy on CM7 Behaving Funny

Folks, I rooted my SGS2 and installed CM7. I have been facing intermittent problems and had to do a factory reset 3 time already (in ~8 weeks). Don't know if these issues are related but any insight on how to resolve these would help.
Issues faced:
1. Around 3 weeks back, started getting popup messages saying activity android.xyz is not responding and needs to be force closed. This popup comes for multiple apps one behind the other. At this stage, I can do nothing but a factory reset via the recovery boot.
2. While connected to a phone call (either making or receiving), there was a sound playing in the background. First it was of a child speaking (some media file connecting to a call?) and now (after a reset), there is a notification ringtone sound every 5-7 seconds.
3. I have Titanium Backup Pro and have scheduled backups that run every day. I do see backup files in the backup location but the 'Batch' menu shows '0' for all restore options.
4. When I try to do a Titanuim Backup restore after a factory reset, nothing gets restored.
5. When I connect my phone to my laptop, it is not identified. I have tried to re-install all drivers but hasn't helped.
Has anyone faced any of these issues? Are they linked to a single root cause or are separate issues? Any known solutions?
Thanks!

Network icons never turn blue anymore on JB

My network icons (WiFi, Cell Signal) used to turn blue (showing connectivity to Google). I tried XenonHD and decided it wasn't for me so I flashed back my Nandroid of the 4.1.1 OTA from kibmcz. For some reason, it seems that after flashing back, my icon never turns blue, even though I can connect to the Play Store, retrieve Gmail, receive Google Voice notifications, etc.
Any thoughts on how to restore this background connection to allow my network icons to turn blue?
I'm backing up (TB) and getting a Nandroid, then reflashing. I think it may be due to the device ID. This was the first time I chose to get the old device ID back when restoring from TB, instead of choosing ignore and keep the new device ID.
Update coming soon...
I've never had issues with changing or not changing the device ID (I've done both over the course of trying out way too many roms). Any chance you accidentally restored some system or Google date with TB? That could cause some problems. In general, don't restore through TB unless there is unrecoverable data that doesn't really interact with the system (such as game scores). If you can restore the data from somewhere else (email from a server, etc) do that. Restore any apps that don't need their data restored from the Play Store (translate, browsers, etc)
Instead of reflashing the OTA, I decided to go with a CM10 (listed in signature). This time I selected "Ignore (keep the new device ID)" and this seemed to work. Coincidental or not, the only time this has been an issue is when I told TB to restore the device ID. Perhaps a TB bug? I'm not sure. I've always restore almost everything stored in TB and never had any issues, especially since I typically don't flash multiple ROMs. I usually stick to stock OTA.
Thanks for the reply, dvorak. I may start doing that if I switch ROMs and not just re-flash the same ROM.

Android restores apps, but sometimes doesn't

My phone is rooted, on jellybean (CyanogenMod 10). I always do a fresh wipe on my phone before installing a new rom and kernel. The weird issue I come across is sometimes after you finish the first setup steps, all the apps start restoring by themselves in Google Play, but other times I have to download System Tuner and restore all the apps I backed up. A few times also after wiping my phone and setting it up again, the apps complete settings were backed up and the login information is already filled out and my preferred settings.
Bump.
There's a feature built-in (available in the settings) where the apps & settings are backed up to Google's servers. I'm not sure exactly how much data is backed up, but, obviously, sideloaded apps & their data are not backed up. Personally, I've never flashed a new ROM & had my stuff magically restored before my eyes, but I suspect that if you waited long enough, the restore would take place.
The closest I've had is when I did a dirty flash & didn't clear my dalvik cache. Strange things can happen, then.
Yes in Google play there is a setting to restore apps automatically. For some reason it is intermittent on when it chooses to work. If your looking for a way to backup and restore your apps I would use titanium backup. It works great.
