[Q] Cant establish reliable connection. TRIED EVERYTHING - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay guys, i wasnt too sure where to post this so yea feel free to move it to its right destination haha
so, I have a rooted Moto G xt1032
everything was fine till a couple of days ago.
then all of a sudden i couldn't connect to the playstore. I thought it was a problem with my internet connection but after a while i realised it wasnt. so i unlinked and removed my gmail account. When i tried to relink it to my phone, it said "cant establish a reliable connection to the server."
then everything went haywire with my phone and a few apps kept crashing all the time.
I saw a solution which said to delete the "hosts" file but i couldnt change or delete it because my root explorer app kept crashing all the time.
So i tried factory resetting my phone, hoping that doing so would fix my problem.
But nope -.-
I cant get to my "hosts" file because i dont have a file manager and i cant install a file manager because no downloads get completed for some strange reason.
I've tried clearing the cache and a few stuff from the recovery (not TWRP or CWM) but i could try again if you suggest it.
Is there a way to get CWM or TWRP and then flash another rom? im not too sure but that could fix my problem so yeah
PLEASE HELP D:

[Q] Cannot Update/Install Apps: How to fix appname unsuccessful?

Has anyone found a quick way to fix the "appname unsuccessful" installer failure on the Xoom? I cannot install or update any apps as of this morning.
A Google of the problem does not come up with anything Xoom/Honeycomb specific but says that on other devices the procedure is to delete smdl2tmp1.asec from the .android_secure folder. However I cannot find this folder or file? I have Astro and ES explorer but neither can see the folder (I have show system files on) and nor can windows when it is connected by USB.
My Xoom is un-rooted and I cannot install any apps like root explorer (which may help) due to the fault.
Apparently a hard reset fixes it to but frankly it took so long to set the thing up how I want, I would like to avoid this if at all possible!
Thanks in advance,
Jim
Have you gone to settings/apps/manage apps/all tab/market/force stop/wipe data
Thanks for the reply.
Sorry, I should have mentioned but I have tried that - not working.
I am currently in process of backing up all 30 ish Gb to laptop to do factory reset if I cannot find an answer by this evening :-(

[Q] lg p925 missing LGHome apk

The other day I did one really dumb taboo thing everyone knows not to do. I was messing with my phone at 1:30 am doing stupid unproductive things. and then bam, I deleted LG Home. without this I can't go to the homescreen. I backed the apk up but I don't know where to access this. using root unistaller.
Somehow by going to the factory reset screen I managed to make it possible for me to boot the phone back up, only still there is no home screen. I can use google voice to make calls and send texts and emails. But I have no app folder or settings and I am quite a noob.
could Someone either tell me how to reinstall LG Home or get a rom that works back onto my phone. Any solution would be great.

You can try to flash this through cwm.
h t t p://w w w.android-files.de/P920/launcherLG.zip
It´s LGHome.apk and LGHome.odex from 21D
well I have the P925g, my brother has the same model. I was thinking I could simply copy the files from his phone into the appropriate folder. Would anyone be able to tell me where I could copy these files from/to? If i could do this I'm sure it would work.

System/app
If you're rooted
Sent from my CM7 Thrill
Well I'm not to sure If it is rooted anymore. I erased all my user data, but I did not factory reset. I'll be checking later if i can access those files. But I'll have to access them via USB connection to my computer. My brothers phone where I'll copy the files from is not rooted so I'm not sure if I can copy them from him or not. I'm going to see what more I can do for my phone tommorow. I hate when this happens. The last time I bricked my phone I couldn't even get to the factory reset screen.
Now that I can get to the factory reset screen I don't even see much use in it because the factory reset option doesn't work like I would have expected. If you can even factory reset through that screen is a mystery to me because I could not get it to work. Every time I tried to initiate factory reset it just went back in the menu and no other button seamed to initiate factory reset. I feel like I'm over looking a lot of options here that I just wouldn't think of trying because of my lack of knowledge here.
I'm very dissapointed in myself and in LG right now.
So I,ve found that I already have the lghome.apk backed up on my phone. but as I cannot go to the homescreen or view files and folders on my phone I'm wondering how I will even launch the apk.
I can still use google voice commands to to other tasks like read emails. is there a way I can access my file system or the market through this?
NVM I checked I don't think it's possible. I cannot use the apk to reinstall the apk because I do not have a home screen or any apps that could open this. even my settings aren't working. and clockwork mod only bricked my phone. so i cannot install rom manager and did not.

If you can get into settings, enable USB Debugging Mode.
Then upload LGHome.apk to the forums.
If you could access your emails then you have data connectivity. Why not open market.android.com on your pc log into your google account and install some launcher through it...
Where is the problem to flash this file through cmd ?
h t t p://w w w.android-files.de/P920/launcherLG.zip
or build another update.zip with adwlauncher.apk in it.

Deleting the HOSTs file was not a solution, I know you read it here but it was fake.
I suggest to follow this guide to restore your phone

[SOLVED] I Softbricked my phone, need some help!

-----SOLVED NOTE----
I did a reflash of the stock rom one more time with ODIN and it seems to have solved the problem. However I still have absolutely no idea about what was wrong with the phone, or why the first successful flash did not take care of the problem.
And a piece of advice, do not edit platform.xml. I swear I edited it correctly and then reverted to the correct settings, did using 3 spaces instead of a tab caused an error??? This will remain a mystery for me...
---------------------------
Hello All,
So I have the Verizon S3 i535, I edited the platform.xml file to give write permissions to external sd card and all hell broke loose after I reverted those changes. All of a sudden every app is getting that "unfortunately stopped" message. I cannot send any file to neither the internal nor the external sd card from my pc, file browsers cannot read any file on any of these cards, I tried pushing with adb but that does not work either. I tried factory reseting, and hard reseting to no avail.
I tried reflashing the stock rom with ODIN but after the flashing process nothing changes? (Does that have to do with me being on NE1).
I do not understand what is going on with the phone right now, flashing should have restored everything, I still get com.google.process.gapps stopped working then all sorts of apps stopping in the same manner, I still can't copy any file to any sort of storage on the phone.
Any idea what has happened and how I could fix it?
Thanks in advance.
That type of editing is not something I have done on Android.
Is there any chance it is a permissions issue and could be fixed with root permissions to a file manager or with adb?

I would be willing to try that however I cannot connect to play store, neither the internet app connects to the internet so I cannot install apk's. I cannot "push" apks to the storage too I tried it via pc and via adb. So I cannot even install a root file manager.
Kingo root however accesses the system (through the pc) and manages to install itself. I have no idea how it can do it.

Glad to see you solved the problem.
I was speaking of using an adb shell to change the permissions of platform.xml to 0644 (-rw-r--r--) if they were set to something else. (I just checked my /system/etc/permissions/platform.xml to verify that was the settings on my device. I wasn't any more specific before because I hadn't checked the file locations nor its permissions.)

[Completed] Google Play Services don't open. Huawei VNS-L31

I messed up.
So after I've caught a virus I restored my phone and weirdly enough it just did a factory reset. Whatever. I tried to open Google Play but it said it had no connection to the server.
I have searched for it (after I've checked the internet connection and deleted all data)and saw that the problem is the hosts file. I thought I need to delete it, because I had a similar problem. The only thing is that this wasn't the same problem, it said no cellular connection, and this one no server connection, and the tutorial said you have to change something, not delete this file, but I deleted it. I tried to restore backups but the hosts file was still deleted. I also tried to reinstall Google Play Services. What can I do?
I've rooted my Huawei VNS-L31 with the Android Version 6.0

Greetings and welcome to assist. The easiest thing to do is factory reset the phone and then reinstall stock firmware again from here
