Hello everyone, i got my xperia C not too long ago and i updated it to the latest available software right after i got it (16.0.B.2.16 is my current build number)
The phone is working just fine except for one issue that is google chrome, 1st lemme put this clear while using WIFI this issue does not exist and it works just fine, anyway Chrome on mobile network connection however is a different story, it doesnt work properly, for example whenever i try to go to any website it loads for a long time and i end up getting a server not available message or unable to load or whatever, and i know for a fact that it has nothing to do with my mobile connection as other apps work just fine including Opera browser which opens whichever website i want right away, however some of the apps that are influenced by google chrome ( or at least i think so coz they r mostly affected by the same issue on mobile network ) like youtube or playstore and sometimes even facebook app ( not the messenger app that one works just fine ) and its been nagging me badly
I understand that simply by using opera my browsing issue is solved but again like i said i believe that some apps are influenced by chrome in one way or another or they r just simply affected by the same issue ( including skype which is extremely unstable like chrome on cell connection but works just fine on WIFI) so i cant just let that issue be as i need chrome to be working properly
Also note that whenever i open a hotspot for someone their chrome browser and all other apps work just fine so iam sure that my issue has nothing to do with mobile coverage or internet configuration settings, another thing, my brother has same xperia C unit and his browsing is just fine however he hasnt updated to the latest firmware ( i dont know whether that issue existed before the update or not as i updated the phone right after i got it before i could put anything to test)
so here are some things that i tried to fix this:
restarting phone, didn't work
factory reset, didn't work
updating chrome, didn't work, removing the update didn't work
uninstalling opera, didnt work
basically nothing works and i really need to get chrome working properly, thanks for reading and i hope anyone can help me fix it as its really bothering me.
Try disabling auto sync and/or removing your Google account from Chrome [don't log in during initial setup].

I have been using the YouTube app since I got the phone and have been impressed. However when I used it today I notice that it is no longer producing preview pictures for the videos. To the left of the screen it used to generate a picture of the video, today however all I get is a dark grey box with a white TV symbol.
I have been playing around with the phone a lot, so thought it might have been something I'd done or installed, however I have done a hard reset and it is still happening.
Is this something to do with my phone or the YouTube service?
Anyone got any ideas?
I got the same problem. The first week it displayed the photo`s, but now ( the second week ) it wont display the pictures anymore...
my youtube just doesn't wok full stop. every time i start it, it just says '' there is no network connection right now, please try again later
any suggestions?
no connection? turn of proxyserver
I have the same problem with the preview pictures, so i guess the problem is on the youtube server side..
For the connection problem:
go to settings > connections > connections > "adjust my proxy server " or something like that. (mijn proxy server instellen in dutch)
Try turning off /removing the proxyserver there. (i had this problem with the preinstalled vodafone proxyserver. I removed it and everything works now)
i hope this works for you
Same for me, only worked for the first few days now I do not get the preview and I am not using a proxy server my connection is through wifi
I've tried reloading t-mobs settings and everytime i load youtube it still tells me that it has no network connection
i've tried having the phone using the automatic proxy setting and tried with it off (having it off is the only way that Msn will work as well, when i had it on, msn said there was no connection. so i guess it was something to do with that, however it wasn't)
should i try to reinstall youtube app? if so, where do i get the CAD?
ahhh soo annoying, really want to start hitting youtube when i have free time in class but no luck
This and the battery are the only faults i'm having with the TD2 (battery is still just as bad as the TD.
I carried out a hard reset and still found youtube previews not working.
me too ! no previews with Duttys HD 3.0 youtube player . I went back to youtube player v 1.6, without success, still no preview . Does anybody have the last version 2.5 wvga as a cab file to return back to the latest version, please ? Thank you.

sorry, double post
Very strange!! it's started working again
Same here, it stopped working after a few days but just now I tried again & its working. Weird
Not so weird if it was something at Google's end that was the problem and they now fixed it. It's been reported on the HD forum to so not linked to the TD2.
Can confirm mine working too now.... thought it was something to do with T-mobile but was obviously 'booble'.

I have had no problems with the youtube app running at all. The thing with the pictue of the video not showing is due to it not fully loading. Bad reception I guess. Happened when I had like 2 bars.
I'm on T-mobile US so only have edge and it's worked pretty well. App works better than on my Elfin.
I also confirm it's back again today
Hey guys,
I've encountered the strangest problem that it actually took me a while to figure whats wrong.
I was simply opening the youtube app to watch a video but it didn't connect, so I tried to open youtube through opera and dolphin but it didn't connect.
I instantly thought the internet is down, however it opened facebook and other non google pages in an instance.
I thought I need to update to youtube app, since i've been putting it off for the numerious negative comments, and I was shocked to find i can't even connect to the market. (Or the market website for that matter) (applanet is working fine tho)
I seems that the phone is blocking google services and websites (which is hard to believe but i don't have a better explanation.)
Is there any thing i can do to fix this?!
I'm running rooted stock froyo (JPKC2) (the one that came with the phone, never flashed it before, rooted with super one click)
PS: this just happened overnight, i don't recall installing anything new for days and youtube and the market were working fine.

well, they are working fine from my computer and my dad's HTC Incredible S....
Are you on 3G/2G or wifi? You can try a factory reset to see if that solves your problem. Keep a backup if you need your data.

Hello everyone, first post here at XDA. Finally got a new phone today, the Lenovo K900.
It's well known for it's cluttered and buggy UI, and I'd love to see those x86 cyanogenmod ROMs roll in soon.
Anyway, the main problem here is, downloads absolutely do not work on the phone. Nor do they work while downloading from a browser (tried multiple, including chrome and stock) and nor do they work from the Play Store. I looked around and found a few fixes, such as clearing the data and cache for the Play Store, Download Manager, Google Services Framework and then force closing them. None of these seem to work. I've not been able to download at all. I've tried factory resetting a couple times as well. The phone came with an older version of it's stock ROM, and downloads didn't work it either. I updated it OTA, issue persists. I did also try installing a newer version of Play Store, but then shifted attention to the download manager since browser downloads weren't working either.
I've only been trying these over 3G, and not wifi. I don't have access to wifi at the moment, but will try to use wifi in a couple hours and see if anything changes. In the meantime, any ideas?
EDIT: It worked fine on wifi, chrome gave me a proxy server error once. Seemed like proxy settings were automatically added for some reason. Removing them fixed the issue.
Hello guys,
this is goin' to be my first post on xda-developers sure that this should normally be placed in another thread but permissions to do that are still missing.
I don't want to create useless board blowing posts only to reach more than 10 to get the permission to disclose some bugs I found in the current CM11_saga_flinny_alpha5..
First of all I wanna thank all developers for spending there spare time for such great projects!!
Issues I recognized:
1) Apps moved and located on the sd-card will loose the desktop link after reboot of the system as often as I place it onto the primary screen.
2) The current Brower often crashes whenever I'm on for example facebook watching pictures it crashes, reproducable.
3) in options under developer options activating error report doesn't bring any report up for sending via email
4) could anyone please evaluate if downloading i.e. Redphone or Textsecure works within the GooglePlay Store? I can't although it is compatible to android 4.4.2 so I guess that there is a mismatch between the googleplay and the alpha5 permissions
thanks.

Hey
I had the second bug to. I reflashed and wiped cache and co and it was gone. No idea why.
I have Problems wieht the Headphones control. Does it work at your device? I get no symbol in the statusbar that the headphone is in still can hear music and sounds but the thee control bottums of the headset don´t work neither the microphon.
@Flinny and @devilkin
Known/recognized issues on both ROMs:
Please evaluate if downloading i.e. Redphone,Textsecure, WhatsApp works within the GooglePlay Store!?
I can't although it is compatible to android 4.4.2 so I guess that there is still a mismatch between the AndroidManifest.xml and both of your ROMs. Permissions or something like that..?
Calling somebody and than trying to "mute" the doesn't work so there's an incorrect function.
Moving apps located(moved to) on the sd-card will loose the desktop link after reboot of the system as often as I place it onto the primary screen.
Gererating Error Report doesn't work seems to be no function behind it..
Hope you guys will fix these bugs...anyway thanks for your great work on supporting such an old phone. Still love my Desire S
I'm currently using the recommended 20140517—version and am having some problems with mobile data, so i assume this is a bug.
Mobile data in 3G networks works flawlessly, but in 2G networks it won't connect to any site/page or service. Though sometimes I get some incoming Whatssapp messages or push-news-content. Never Bad this problems with stock Roms. Provider is Vodafone Germany.
Every time I flash a 4.4.4 ROM I get net::ERR_EMPTY RESPONSE or net:: ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR whenever I visit a Google website.
This problem not only effects any browser I use, but also the Google apps.
Gmail, for example, will sync to my phone but images do not show and anything done on my phone will not show anywhere else(read emails still unread).
Essentially, updating to any ROM that is 4.4.4(CM, Liquidsmooth, CarbonROM) makes my phone hate connecting to Google.
Is there any solution for this?
I have images of the problem on imgur if it helps. Can't post image so just put these in the url

I've had this happen with the AOSP browser, but I've never had this issue with Chrome or any other apps for that matter.
is CM11M8 a 4.4.4 rom? m7 is 4.4.2 and i have no issues with it. i haven't upgraded to m8 yet since everything seems to be fine in m7 and now that nard's not working on cm anymore, i hesitate to upgrade it.
I faced the same issue after using mobile TOR (Orbot). When connected via Tor all was allright, but after switching it off the connection broke. Opening any URL from any app haven't succeed.
