My HTC One X has several issues but the most annoying of them all is that Youtube and Play store open in browser by default. I've tried clearing defaults of all apps but no luck. Whats more is they always open in the stock HTC browser, so if i'm using ICS+ or chrome and i hit a link to an android app, it loads the Play store in the HTC stock browser.
Another major issue: Wifi will stay connected to networks even after i leave the area. I have to manually turn off wifi to use my LTE mobile data.
Is anyone else having these issues and do you know of any fixes?
Have you done a full battery pull/power off restart? After clearing prefs?

Open the Google Play Store. On the top right corner you have a menu, go into settings and deselect the update over wifi only option.
P_
did you fix it? im having the same problem here and i dont know how to fix it... already deleted all of the play store data, still nothing...
does it say it is downloading and the progress bar keeps going but no percentage? I've had this too. just reboot once and open up play store, it should resume automatically.
yeah, also uncheck wi-fi only.
Unable to update/download from Google Play/Market
Hi Guys,
I too have been having this problem from the past month.
It works fine on a WiFi connection, but not on data.
I have tried every remedy I cud find, but no joy
1: Clear data/cache method
2: Uninstall/Reboot method
3: Sign in/out method
4: Tried a different Sim card
5: Tried a different g mail account
6: Rollback to Android Market
7: Factory reset
8: Conferred with the service provider (Vodafone)
9: Got the tab updated at an authorized Samsung center.
10: Google Play support (They suck)
I don't think there is anything I haven't tried.
Downloads on the browser work fine, Its just Google play that's acting up.
The status just gets stuck on 'Downloading' and then stops with error 495.
If anyone has had a breakthrough with a fix apart from the ones listed above...please share.
Thank you.
Use search. Plenty of topics on error 495, no need for another.
anyone had any luck..
I too am facing the same problem.. not able to download anything via 3G but working fine on Wifi.
Let me know if anyone was successful.
I never had a problem with 3G on Play Store, in fact I prefer it rather than Wi-Fi.
Try updating your Play Store to the latest one.
Check your mobile settings. Your APNs and all.
Can't really tell a solution because I haven't experience it at all. I'm just here to say that it works great on mine. Even from a fresh clear data on the application(No settings or whatsoever in Play Store options applied).
I'm having the same problem with my N800 Note tablet. Sees the apps in Play Store but the download progress bar jut says downloading with no progress. Download over WiFi only has been disabled.

Check the eee Pad Transformer Q&A threads for error (495). Mcdeep from Pretoria had a fix. (I'd post the link but I'm too itty-bitty on this forum atm. )
Mcdeep said:
I finally managed to solve the problem. Just follow these steps, but bear in mind that i'm using a custom ROM so it might be a little different with you. Go to Settings > Wireless and network > Mobile networks > Access Point Names (or APN). Now select the APN that u are using. (I chose MTN Data since i'm MTN. Now go to "Proxy". There should be a number in there, delete everything that's in there and leave that field blank. Go to "Port" and clear everything as well. It worked for me.hope it works for u too. Let me know.

I have a Note (N-7000) and was having this issue. Found a solution on another forum and it worked for me.
I had actually tinkered with the background data settings to restrict it for some apps. It included Google Play Store as well. Whien I uncheked background data for Play store, the downloads still DID NOT work.
After some search, I found that the 'Media' process should also have background Data enabled for Google Play to work on 3G/Data connection. I had restricted background data for this process as well. After removing the restriction on Background data for both 'Media' & 'Play' Store, I am now able to download over 2G/3G connection as well.
The 'Update over Wifi' setting had nothing to do with the issue apparently.

plus all the google related app must not be data restricted they create problem in one way or other (
Finally solved the problem
Google Play Store is working fine in my Micromax Nitro A310 with 2G mobile data and wi fi but not when on 3G. I tried every trick & tip found in this forum and elsewhere over the internet like enabling background data, clearing cache, clearing data, logging in & logging out, clearing APN proxy and even factory reset. Nothing worked for me. Here's how I resolved this problem.
I use Airtel 3G. In the Access Point Name (APN) settings under "data bearer" default action selected is "not specified". Select "LTE" here. It worked for me
Hey guys!
So I've tried Google and I think I've exhausted my resources, but has anyone experienced a problem with the Play Store not working on Wifi. The wifi connection is fine as I can browse the web, get email updates, and run apps that require a network connection, but the Plat Store just cannot connect at all. I've tried the phone without the sim card in just to make sure the other apps weren't using the 4g connection through some backdoor. However, on 4g, the play store connects just fine as does everything else. I'm running the "official" jb leak for the chinese atrix 2, ME865, rooted. Any tips on the issue?
Thanks in advance!

This is a known issue some of us saw after the ICS upgrade as well.
Try and clear all the data and cache for the play store app. This is in settings, apps, running or all apps (depends if it is running or not), click on the play store the clear all the data and cache from there.
Then reboot. When the phone comes back up, try to use the play store on WiFi. You will have to log back into your Google account in the play store and say yes to the agreement again, if it works.
Somewhat similar problem is faced by me after i fxz back to ics from cm10.1
i can get into playstore but no apps are getting downloaded only the preloader appears for every app (the loading kind of thing appears before actual download)..works on data but not wifi
have tried wiping cache of the play store and even wiped cache of the rom..
is there anything else i can do?
edit: found solution.. remove google account reboot open play store and add account again..!!
Anyone having this issue. Not exactly sure what changed in my wifi setup but in the facebook and instagram apps photos in my feed wont load. When i switch over to mobile data or use the web page in the browser over wifi they load fine. For some reason my wifi does not play nice with instagram and facebook apps. This is on my galaxy s4 but have tried several different devices and they all have the same issue.
Has anyone run into this problem? Tried searched and found some people who had the opposite issue with it not loading over mobile data but havent found a thread on this. Thanks for any tips.
I am having the exact same issues. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am having the exact same issue, its seem to be a router problem, my newsfeed load fine one 4g and other wifi (i have a galaxy s2), but on my home wifi the newsfeed for facebook or instagram won't load, my sister is also experiencing the same problem with here galaxy S......any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
FYI: i've tried restarting the router, upgrading the firmware which didn't work. also before i realized it was just the router i've tried force closing, clearing the cache and restarting the phone, i've also uninstall and reinstall the app several times.
I had a similar problem but I sorted it out today on my Nexus 4. My problem was, the default gateway on my phone was different from what it has to be for that specific wifi network.
In windows one can check the default gateway by running command prompt (cmd) and typing ipconfig.
On your phone you also have to check the advanced settings for that wifi network that you have problems with.
I set the Ip settings to static from DHCP and entered the default gateway values from my pc to my phone. You can also get another ip for your phone in that advanced settings tab if you think there may be an ip conflict but as I told, my problem was the differing default gateway values. I haven't changed the DNS which was google dns by default.
Key thing was the default gateway values for me and I'm hoping this will help many of you.

if ur Instagram installed on ur sdCard then just move it to ur mobile memory it's 101% working
i am having an issue that i cannot figure out and i am hoping someone can help. i have a galaxy s6 through Bell and it is completely stock and i have not modified it in any way. i am having an issue where some apps, but not others, will not download data unless i am on wifi. i do have some apps that have background data restricted but i am having issues when the apps are in the foreground and are actively being used. i have checked to make sure that there are no data limits or restrictions blocking data, i have full lte signal and i have tried toggling between lte and 3g with the same results.
i have used the phone for 5 weeks at least and for the first 3 weeks all was good until this issue crept up and i had to do a hard reset. i started from scratch and reset the phone and all was good for another 2 weeks and now it is an issue again. as an example, i open the play store app and it loads up the icons and i can use lte and load all info and pics,etc, but when i try to download a new app or update an existing one it will indicate that it is trying to download but nothing happens. i can switch to the browser and it will open pages but when i switch back to the play store it says that background data is disabled when it is actually not.
today i have also had issues with google music where it will allow me to play radio stations over lte just fine sometimes and other times the icons will be greyed out and it will not allow the radio stream to open unless i switch to wifi. the settings are set up to allow me to stream over data, etc so it should be working.
i have had many android devices in the past and am usually able to figure this stuff out but i am stumped on this one. i tried searching and did not find anything. any help would be appreciated.

Did you check to see if power saver is set to on? Turn it off
If it's not that, check under settings > data usage and make sure "set mobile data limit" is OFF
Thanks but neither of those is the issue. Some apps will work while others will not. Gmail will get push email but I cannot download apps or stream music in play music. Frustrating
Disabling background data will simply stop the app using mobile data to do things in the background. I'd imagine the app recognises streaming as "background data".
I would turn off disable background data on the effected apps as the setting does not improve battery and has very little effect on data used.
I will try that and see. What confuses me is that the phone has been great for a few weeks and suddenly this issue comes back and I have not changed any settings from one day to the next
Alright so i am currently having a few problems with my Nexus 5 and to be frank, they are quite odd. First off, I can no longer get any wifi from my school, i cant connect but everyone else can. I have no idea why. Then, when i try to login into my google accounts in my phone, i get an error, wether if its youtube, google play, or any app that lets me log in using my google account i get a message saying "no wifi or cellular network connection" now, the worst part is, all of these services work fine when im on lte, so whenever i want to download an app or watch youtube videos, i have to be using lte which is not the best thing to do. Any suggestions? ive tried clearing the cache of my google play services and stuff but nothing seems to work. Ive also tried to flash new gapps but that still didnt cut it.
Thanks to anyone responding to me in advance.
