[Q] Can't download/update apps using data connection on play store.

whenever I try to download or update an app from the play store when my wifi is off and only data is on I'm getting a "xxx could not be downloaded due to an error.(404)"
I tried deleting data of everything market/play store related and nothing helped.
When the wifi is on everything works great.
Edit: if im going to the market site and choose to install the selected app on my devices it will also fail if the wifi is off
Also if it matters I'm using the market fix from LCD modder pro

u answered ur own question. Market has a known flaw when interacting with LCD modder and any dpi changer.

As far as I know the flaw is not being able to see/update certain apps, but after using the fix everything works.
And as I said over wifi I have no issues at all only while using data so I doubt that's the case.

Bumping this because I tried restoring to the original market and I still cant download/update using mobile data.
Would be great if anyone can help me with this.

while in market> settings> deselect wifi only.

It's not selected. I think I tried most of the obvious things but thanks for trying.

have the same problem
Did u fined a solution?

Solution
The solution is: go to System Settings > press "More..." in Wireless and Networks > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names (APNs) >press the menu button, inside the menu press "Reset to default“ > now another option will appear called "Internet 3G" (modem) , besides the "Portal 3G". Choose the new option "Internet 3G" and you are done! =] here's a screenshot:

Solution - works
It worked for me although I didn't change to Internet 3G - just reset to default.
Thx. I already tryed a few fixes that didn't work.

Change proxy settings
I removed proxy settings from my APN attributes and then it worked fine.

Thanks a million! This worked for me and has been bugging me the last couple of weeks. Google support had me clear cache, do a data reset of all the Play store related apps/service, along with flip air plane mode on and off. They eventually sent me to Samsung support and they pretty much went over similar steps outside of trying it in Safe Mode. They even had me do a reset with the phone which didn't fix it either. I knew something funky was going on as my wife's Pixel was also doing it. Now I have both phones fixed!

[FIX] ICS data drops for T-Mobile Users

Updated: instructions Aug-10
Updated: New file optimized for US T-Mobile New instructions - Aug-15
If you have data drops after this please communicate with me. I hate it when someone tells me this fix sucks and then never answers my troubleshooting questions.So as far as I know they have a separate issue!
This is a more public post of what has been going on in the Paranoidandroid developmet thread, but this fix works for all T-Mobile ICS ROM users.
The APN list I have provided here is a US T-Mobile APN list built from the original I pulled apart on the original T-Mobile ROM. Now...this means IT WILL NOT WORK for users on other carriers or in other countries. I might work for the Canada Wind Mobile users as well.
What this did for me and the other T-Mobile testers: It removed the data drops completely for myself and the original testers. This whole data drop thing (and why many others never see it) may be a issue with the "Simple" mobile APN in the default list. Simple uses the same towers as T-Mobile but with different authentication.
What that means is T-Mobile users get small drops as the phone tries to connect to the Simple (which looks like T-Mobile to the phone) towers and then fails because the SIM is not authorized on Simple. Then the next APN in the list "T-Mobile US" is used and connected.
This is an example for others with data drops: Seeing as I have no idea if non-T-Mobile users have ever experienced this problem, I have no idea if trimming down the APN list to include only your carrier APNs willl make any difference. But a smaller APN file could not hurt. The ROM builders must keep the larger file in thier builds to ensure all users everywhere can connect to their carrier. Bad thing is that most of this list is filled with carrier discontinued APNs (Mergers, acquisition, etc) but some may be needed to support older SIM cards.
I would love to have feedback though. Trimming the APN list and importing the settings from the original APN file was a little weird because it was from an older format, but you just use the same format as the new APN list. Even the new included default APN list does not follow the version 7 rules completely. Most important part is the type= identifier in each APN. This defines what functions the APN have. (Default, MMS, SUPL, DUN)
Instructions
CWM Flashable Download: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/14980920/tmobile_apnfix.zip
Step 1: download the zip to your SDcard and reboot into Recovery.
Step 2: install the zip and reboot
Step 3: Wipe Dalvik cache is not doing this while flashing a new ROM
Step 4: verify that "Simple" is not in your APN l list - System Settings > Wireless and Networks > More > Mobile Networks >Access Point Names (If it is then delete it)
Troubleshooting
Sudden horrible data connection issues: Verify the permissions on file "/etc/apns-conf.xml" are 644. Some have had the permissions randomly change on this file, not sure how or why.
The APN list this modifies is only a reference file to the APN function deeper in the phone. That is why Simple can reappear after the flash is applied if you did not apply this during a fresh install of a ROM.

Is there any way you could just post what specific changes you made so we don't have to use the flashable file?

I find my data stays well using PA build5. I am watching new builds to see for changes that come!

Doesn't appear to "fix" the data drop for me on paranoid build 7, the data appears to kick back in faster but it still is dropping and leaving my GPS struggling to get a lock and messenger booting off due to the other known things to make the data drop

Where are you getting data drops at, I mean what activities are you doing or what programs are you using when this happens? And does the bars change from blue/grey; or are you loosing the H/3/2 above the bars?

Sending MMS and anything that uses the GPS, both, goes gray and lose data icon

So I flashed this and can see no discernible difference in my APN list. Simple is still there, and the T-Mobile APN appears unchanged. Also still experiencing the data drops at the same rate

Likewise, still having data drop issues, not much of a difference from what I can tell

Ok, if the Simple APN still appears in your list it is a carry over from the previous settings. Just delete that APN from your list and it should not show up again. I think I remember that happening as well and forgot to mention some had to manually delete it. I will update the OP.

You can just open the apns-conf.xml file in the zip and see the changes. I'm not going to paste it here and clutter the post up

Just to make one thing clear, as I heard it before.
When the color of the icons change from blue to grey this does NOT mean that your data drops. Blue color indicates that it's connected to Googles servers. A data drop only occurred when there's no G/E/3G/H icon anymore.

First, delete the Simple APN and retest, Simple does not show up to begin with when using this process: Flash ROM, Gapps, BBfixes if needed, APN fix if needed. Flashing the APN fix on an existing build may not clear the Simple APN from the phones memory at first reboot.
I was hoping to avoid explaining this but here is the thing with the grey/blue bars because the APN function was complicated as it is. Tonyp and a few others had discussed this offline. The blue/grey bar thing gives greater granularity to Google Services connectivity at the expense of making us think we may have lost cellular data.
My bars turn grey when in Google Maps and when sending/receiving MMS
In most ICS builds:
Blue Bars = Connected to Google services / cellular data is connected
Grey Bars = Not connected to Google services / data is still connected
This color changing thing never happened in my original ROM
My T-Mobile ROM never changed colors so I never would have know if or when Google servers lost connection. Don't know what to tell ya as I don't have anything else to go off of.
You are not really losing data because you will notice the data activity still happening in the signal bar overlay (the up/down arrows). The MMS still goes through and the Google maps application still updates the map data as you scroll around. If this is not the case for you, then something else is going on. Tonyp discovered a larger problem in the framework.apk that he ended up patching and I believe includes in the newest build, that resolved a GPS-data problem. The fix allowed the radio to recognize a data connectivity drop and reconnect. But if it reconnects to Simple first, then you still get a pause in connecting back to the TMobile APN until Simple fails.
I will have to add this to the already long OP.....now that I am out of breath.

Alright, so I flashed this, deleted Simple, and I will say it seems to have fixed a problem I had with receiving MMS. thanks for this!

Simple isn't in my APN list, I flashed the zip from OP, my Data is dropping the same it just starts up a lot faster but it is still dropping. Maps will stop updating for a few seconds, no data or buffer, bars, arrows, and data icon go away. Instant Messenger always kicks accounts off.

put genesis stable 1 on my phone to try this and it flashed fine, left simple listed as an APN so i deleted it
was able to download from the browser but when i went into the Play Store i couldnt download anything, even after clearing the app data. so i reflashed, installed this fix, same thing. did not check mms messages though, too put off about the play store not working

I'm back on Domination build 80. I wiped cache/dalvik, flashed the APN fix, fixed permissions, rebooted, deleted Simple, rebooted, wiped cache/dalvik again, and then rebooted. I went to the Play Store on my desktop browser, chose to install YouTube, it pushed to my phone just fine and it appears to be downloading with no issue (aside from the fact that phone signal at my job is so bad tha it's literally worse than dial up...). I haven't had a chance to try MMS because it's usually a headache trying to receive pictures while at work so I don't even want to try.

Man I am struggling trying to think what would be happening for you. I have blue bars off/on during maps...showing intense data usage...but always get map data. The Play Store, I have browsed all around it, watch videos, downloaded apps, updated apps...I don't get any drops. I'm going to have to ask for some logcats from the two of you here to try to help. What chat program are you using, maybe I'll try it and see what it does for me.
Please help me by providing the following also, as I really do want to figure this issue out for all users if possible...
Which baseband are you on?
What RIL are you on? ( Use getril in the store, I want to know if this could be a BB thing and if you have matching BB/RIL)
Thanks for the help!

Heads up, I have noticed that fixing permissions after applying this package can screw up the permissions on the /etc/anps-conf.xml file. This causes major data connection issues. Either apply the apn fix again, after fixing permissions, or change the permissions manually to 644.

Easy way to recover/restore APN settings?

I'm on eagles blood 4.0.4. One of the issues with ICS running on this device is that my APN settings are getting deleted about twice a week. So i have to go into my settings and manually add my settings into a new APN and save it in order to get my data back and working. I've tried to use the option of "restore default APN" but it doesn't work, I just get a pop message saying "restoring default APN settings" and it never goes away and nothing gets restored. Besides manually putting in the information into my APN settings, is there an easier way to get them back when the restore option is not working?

There is an app for that .
Also those that rename apn to save on data traffic can rewrite/restore properly.

Lol yeah I saw that Mansa, there are a few apps that can save and supposedly restore APN settings. I'll give those a shot for sure.
Freak, I actually saw that thread a few days ago and wasn't sure if that would be the solution to my problem. I figured that "data drops" were just a loss in signal/connection strength over the data network, not a complete deletion of the T-Mobile US APN settings. However, after reading through the thread again it makes sense how the simple mobile APN's might be interfering with my T-Mobile US settings. I'll flash that asap and see if it helps the issue, along with saving my current settings with an APN-saving/restoring application.
As always, appreciate the responses!

[Q] Persistent "Sign into network" notification - CM 10.2 - APN won't "stick"

[Q] Persistent "Sign into network" notification - CM 10.2 - APN won't "stick"
Hello all,
I hope someone can shed some light on this problem.
The core details:
ROM: CyanogenMod 10.2.1 (stable)
Android version: 4.3.1
Baseband version: I535VRUCML1
The problem:
I've learned, since flashing to CM 10.2.0 back in early January, when I'm not on WiFi, I don't have mobile data...
After a reboot of the phone, a notification always comes up that says "Sign into network" and "Verizon Wireless" underneath it.
I learned, on my own, that the APN isn't "sticking". CM 10.2.x installed a bunch of "stock" APNs, if you will, but none of the APNs are selected!
That is, if I go to Settings -> More... -> Mobile networks -> Access Point Names. None of the many APNs listed there have a filled in radio button.
When I select my APN (Verizon Internet / VZWINTERNET) and go back to a browser, I'm good to go.
So, I have a workaround - when I lose data, I run to APNs and select my APN and go on my merry way.
But what gives? How come it won't stick through a reboot?
I've even tried deleting all the other APN entries hoping it would default to the ONLY APN available but it still doesn't do the trick.
I need to manually click on my APN if I want mobile data after a phone restart!
Permissions on a file somewhere?
I rooted my Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 (d2vzw) a few months back. I'm new to the mobile device scene but I'm an IT Professional by trade so this has been a lot of fun; learning more and more about how these devices work. This is a great hobby and this site has been invaluable.
Thank you for all you guys do and thank you for all your help,
-D

No one has any idea why my APN won't save on CM 10.2.1?
The APN is there, I simply must select the correct APN radio button to get data while on the road (no wifi) every single time I get out on the road. Why does it keep resetting to no APN selected?!
Has no one experienced this?
I've looked for apps to try to set it at boot or something but the only apps I find are for changing APNs on the fly for going around the country or something.
70 views already. No response. Ouch.
I hope it is not too inappopriate to bump my own thread. I don't mean to be rude.

Sprint lte cyanogenmod fix found

New info, Here is how to get LTE to work for sprint users. (Now includes Virgin Mobile as well!)
THE FIX FOR VIRGIN MOBILE LTE IS AS FOLLOWS: INSTEAD OF CHANGING THE APN TO n.sprpre.ispsn, change it to n.ij.ispsn, and set bearer to LTE.
THIS WILL ONLY WORK IF YOUR ABLE TO EDIT THE APNS VIA CHANGE APNS BY ANNANDO (GOOGLE PLAY), OTHERWISE NOT, SORRY.
NOW WORKING ON VIRGIN MOBILE. (THANKS SANDS207 FOR TESTING), CONFIRMED WORKING ON SPRINT XT1526.
ALSO CONFIRMED WORKING ON MOKEE OS, WITH JUST AN APN EDIT, (NOTHING REPLACED).
New information: if you want to undo the edit, just reset apns to default. Or you want to go to 3g.
1. Install desired rom, and gapps
2. If cm 12.1, just change the 1st sprint apn to "n.sprpre.ispsn, and set bearer to "LTE".
3. If other non working LTE cyanogenmod based rom, and it is lollipop based, (I haven't tested cm13), replace apns-conf in sytem, etc, from stock lollipop, set permissions to "0644", reboot to twrp, wipe data, cache, dalvik.
4. download "change apns" by annando from google play after rebooting and setting up.
5. Do step 2.
As far as i tested, this works on paranoid android as well, (if you replace the apns conf and set proper permissions), then change apn with the above mentioned app, after doing a data, cache, and dalvik cache in twrp.
Sorry for the edit, i just had to rewrite my steps, after discovering you only have to change 1 apn for this to work.

Oh yeah!!! That's awesome I will give this a try if you recommend it! So you have text, data and your calls all working? We have been so close on this, congrats man

I am using cm 12.1. The December 30th build. And how I edited the apns was APN changer. As far as the values, all I did was change the 4th APN name to n.sprpre, and changed the bearer to LTE. and changed the 1st, 2nd, and 3 apns to LTE only as well. Have you tried it yet?

I'm on stock 5.1 right now, I have really decided yet but 12.1 will be my first stop and from there I'll use Apn backup and restore if I switch ROM's and see if it will work being on VM this should work correctly via piggyback on the spark network. I have alot of options for data on my stock ROM so I will see if it matches first. I'm going to back up and try tonight, I'll definitely report back and let you know.

While I haven't gone through your whole process, I tried looking for "APN Changer" in the play store. The closest thing I found was "Change APN" by Appando. With that, I still get the error message about APNs unavailable to the user when I try to save new APNs (I can't view current ones). Is there some other App that I'm missing, or is it that I haven't done the apns-conf swap yet? Could you please provide a link to the app you used?
Awesome work getting this thing up and running on LTE!

I do apologize, it is called "Change APN", by appando. Sorry about that. I will update my original post so as not to confuse anybody else. And you only need to do the apns-conf switch if your not on cyanognemod 12.1. The only other rom ive tested this on is paranoid android, and i had to replace the apn in that one, set its permissions to 0644, and wipe data, cache, and dalvik in twrp. Then, after it booted, i did the apn name change.

No waste of time at all. Just means I have a choice to make between ROMs. You're sharing valuable info, no need to apologize!
Edit: Tried flashing official CM12.1 to see what I could see - I get one APN, MetroPCS internet, showing, in Change APN. Any attempt to add more or edit reverts me to the APNs not editable for this user screen. Not sure what the cause of this is - may be related to the fact that I've never activated on Sprint? I dunno. Seems strange that my device isn't acting like others. Tough to try to troubleshoot as well, as I am literally in a zero service area at home for Sprint.

Yeah, I don't own a virgin mobile variant unfortunately, so i had no way of knowing whether or not it would work for it. I only know this works on the sprint variant, sorry about that. Thanks for testing though!

For Virgin Mobile LTE replace the apns-conf.XML in Cyanogenmod with this https://drive.google.com/folder/d/0Bz99NuhE3XwmLW15TGtHbFNDWGc/edit And set permissions to 0644 and reboot. Then open APN changer from the play store, you might see metroPCS or another APN listed but just ignore it and select restore default APN's and reboot again for good measure. Finally open APN changer and select the first Sprint APN like @hydroman202 mentioned in the OP and enter n.ij.ispsn in the APN setting below where it says Sprint and then set the bearer to LTE and IMPORTANT make sure to save and reboot. On reboot LTE should be working for you!! I changed my APN name from Sprint to Virgin Mobile LTE after I finished and that worked OK. This is what the APN looks like if you get stuck or need to enter it manually
your carrier label in settings may still say Boost even after LTE is working, I haven't figured out how to change that in build.prop yet but you can use Xposed GravityBox to change the carrier displayed on your status bar & lockscreen to Virgin Mobile LTE. [emoji2] [emoji2] [emoji2]

Edit: Tried flashing official CM12.1 to see what I could see - I get one APN, MetroPCS internet, showing, in Change APN. Any attempt to add more or edit reverts me to the APNs not editable for this user screen. Not sure what the cause of this is - may be related to the fact that I've never activated on Sprint? I dunno. Seems strange that my device isn't acting like others. Tough to try to troubleshoot as well, as I am literally in a zero service area at home for Sprint.

Did you switch the network mode to global or lte first? If that doesn't work, try to toggle between 3g and LTE first, and see if they show. If even that won't make it show, try to click reset the apns after switching it to global. Because if you don't, it will default to 3g, and the proper apns will not show. Also, make sure that it is set to ruin,sim under network settings. Just thought you should know
Also, I found it will automatically erase the APN if you try to change the values "310" and "120". I'm not sure why, its just strange like that.

I saw something in https://android.googlesource.com/device/samsung/toroplus/+/jb-dev/test-apns-conf_sprint.xml
maybe you can try adding the apn="n.sprpre.ispsn" or apn="n.ij.ispsn" in the correct section of your modified apns-conf.xml file so this will help you not needing to use the APN changer application.
Like this https://github.com/Motorola-Cyanoge...prebuilt/system/etc/cdma/virgin/apns-conf.xml but with the correct values.

Thanks, I did a fresh install of CM 12.1 and used this template to make it work with the new values added, I just replaced the existing apns-conf with the new one and it worked straight away. The only this I haven't been able to figure out is outgoing MMS, I can receive pics but can't send them...normal sms and calls ingoing and outgoing work fine now @scritch007 @hydroman202

I'm still using the same fix I have had since cm12 for boost and have zero issues with MMS ... (Except on cm13) works perfectly with CAF .9 though. So Boost users use the methods that I've previously posted and you'll be fine. We need to find a way to package the fixes for all 3 MNVOs and that way they can be pinned in the ops of the respective roms.

This is the updated apns-conf for working VM LTE that I built from the template @scritch007 showed me https://drive.google.com/folder/d/0Bz99NuhE3XwmLW15TGtHbFNDWGc/edit everything works except sending pictures. I'll look into that I'm guessing it is also an APN hangup too. I have the info for the MMS APN but I'm not exactly sure all of it is right,I'll keep trying until I get it but that's what I can contribute for now
