[Q] No connection on some Google apps - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I can't connect to Google play store/Gmail or Google Now on my nexus 5 via Wifi. None of the older topics about the same problem helped. It seems to work on my mobile network. It started completely randomly, the only thing i installed was Lookout security (but i'm not sure if it started after that) Then i uninstalled it, but it did not work as well. I had stock unlocked Nexus 5, was planning on installing cyanogenmod so this was a perfect chance to do so, and get a fix to the problem. Surprisingly, even unlocking, rooting, installing CM did NOT solve the problem.
Google play says no connection
Google Now says sing in error
Gmail says no connection
Google+ is working though.
Since even installing custom ROM did not help, you can be sure i already tried clearing the caches/data and all of the simple steps.
Any ideas?

You said that you can't connect on wifi, so I assume that you can do so on your mobile data connection?

Yes everything works on mobile connection, only my google play installed apps list seems to be constantly loading without showing my apps.
Google now, gmail, everything works on mobile. Other family members on the same wifi don't have any problems accessing their apps.

I fixed the problem in case anyone else gonna have the same issue try this: open your wifi settings, hold on your current wifi connection, select modify, check show advanced options and select proxy to "none"

[Q] google play no connection

i had this problem before, but i dont remember how it got fixed, but after i had to re-flash tweaked 3.2, it is having this problem again. SO, here is the problem: i am connected to the internet, i can go on websites with my browser, use apps that require internet, etc. but google play, no matter what i do and all the solutions ive tried, does not connect. it always says no connetion, retry. im on tweaked 3.2, lazarous kernel. i dont have a sim card in, i use this on wifi only. (might have something to do with it idk) any help is appreciated.
just realized that facebook says the same thing, no connection, or network error, cant remember which.
Clear the data and cache of the Google play app and it should work.

[Q] Wifi half not working

I have a moto g 8gb. It is rooted and i am using infusion custom rom (and have been for the past month). Yesterday, my wifi started being faulty. It works perfectly (though a bit slowly) for internet browsing on google chrome, and i can send hangouts fine. However, when i try to download or update an app from google play store, it doesnot download. It tells me it is downloading but after about 5min it says could not download. I also cannot connect to the internet in any games eg. candy crush and my instagram feed does not refresh. This occurs at home and work so i know it is not the wifi provider. Also, when i switch to 3g the apps begin downloading straight away.
I have tried rebooting my phone many times. I have tried lots of wifi fixer apps none of them help. My phone thinks it is connected but only chrome and hangouts works. I tried a factory reset then a TWRP restore to no avail. PLEASE HELP

[Q] Internet Not Working

Hey everyone,
So, I was using my nexus 5 in my university over wifi and it was working all fine and then all of a sudden the internet stopped and I couldn't browse or use any app that requires an internet connection. I switched off my wifi and turned over to my 3g connection and the problem was still there that is it would connect and everything but it wouldn't allow me to browse or use any such application, I tried restarting the phone, clear the cache through recovery, gave it a soft reboot but the problem still persists even with the wifi that I have at my home. I have tried opera and chrome and both of them are not working, neither is whatsapp, facebook or anything that requires an internet connection. Chrome says "erro code: DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NO_INTERNET" while opera said "DNS lookup failed" and the same error comes over both wifi and data network.
Would really appreciate if someone could help me with it cause I need the internet to work on my phone as I can't carry a laptop everywhere. :/

try turning off your router for 3 minutes then turn it back on. about your 3G.. have you called your provider?
I take it you have turned off the phone and back on?

[Q] Google services don't work on wifi?

Hello,
I've been having problems connecting with google services for a week now.
When I'm connected to my wifi, the wifi icon appears with an exclamation point and says "connected, no internet". I thought at first maybe it's a problem with my wifi router so I restarted the wifi, forgot the wifi connection, and tried to connect again. That didn't fix the problem. So I tried to connect through mobile data and everything seems to work fine. I connected to my wifi again hoping that the problem is fixed, but it still says "connected, no internet".
However, I opened my phone browser and it appears I have access to any website. All other apps that requires internet also works on wifi. Only the google apps like the play store, gmail, youtube and others don't work. My laptop also does not have problems connecting to the wifi so I don't think it's a wifi connection problem.
This problem occured after I installed RootCloak xposed module on my rooted note 3 device running temasek's unofficial cm13 rom. I already tried factory reset and even installing other roms due to desperation and nothing worked.
I hope someone will be able to help me solve this issue.

Extreamly slow WIFI

I have a OnePlus 2, and when i connect to my wifi network (also tried in a few different places like coffee shops etc - same problem) the speed is around 0.5mbps (measured by speedtest app, browsing, downloading etc), with any other device in my home i get around 50mbps. The signal is great, it connects normally, everything ok except speed. BUT, sometimes (extreamly rare) when I connect to my wifi the speed is normal (50mbps) and it stays that way until I disconnect and connect again...then I drops to 0.5mbps.
Things I tried:
Tried using static ip, and any other setting available in wifi settings.
Tried wiping cache/dalvik, factory reset, format internal storage.
Tried downgrading to lollipop, also flashing custom roms cm13/cm14/exodus/hydrogenos and also custom kernels.
Nothing above solved my issue, the problem was always the same. It's not router releated, because I tried connecting to different ones, same thing. Any advice?
Thank you in advance!

There is very little on the device that would cause this because your data speed is more controlled by the network you're connected to than by the device.
More than likely, it's something running in the background tying up your data connection, probably google play services and the playstore checking for updates. If you're using Facebook app, Facebook messenger, WhatsApp, Kik, Snapchat or any of the other social media/texting apps, they also tie up your data connection scanning for notifications and updates.

I was thinking the same, but then I did a factory reset, 0 apps installed and same speed... I tried connecting to different wifi networks in different places...same speed :/
EDIT: and as I said above, in extreamly rare cases when I connect- it works...then if I disconnect and reconnect again I get the same speed issue (doesn't matter if I do this in an hour or 5 hours)

You Stoll have google play services and google playstore after the reset, if you'll read around a little while, you'll see that the updated google play services causes slow data, battery drain and heating issues because its constantly scanning network, sane for playstore.
