[Q] Unable to Connect to my Google Account

After Hard Resetting my Motorola Atrix 2, when i tried to connect to google account, I am getting an error message saying - Can't establish a reliable data connection.....
Below is the whole description of the problem....
4 days ago I updated my Motorola Atrix 2 with the Update. The Update downloads successfully but after rebooting I got a message saying "Update Failed".
I tried updating again but received the same error.
And 2 days after this updation process I noticed that I am unable to sign into my Google Account. None of the Google Application was opened. All I see the Window with Loading Symbol and nothing else. Neither Android Market, Nor Gmail or Youtube works. All stopped working at once.
I than searched the Internet and find some solutions saying that you need to hard reset your phone.
I did that also, I used both the method for hard resettig, i.e. 3 button method as well as Factory Reset option, but it didn't solve my problem at all.
In fact now at starting of the phone when i tried to connect to my google account, an error comes saying - " Can't Establish a Reliable Data Connection "
I had searched your forums also and find a similar thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=780545
But trying all the method given in this thread I am still unable to connect to my google account.
Kindly Help me......... Thanx in Advance

Go to Settings -> About Phone and see, are you on 2.3.5 or 2.3.6?
If you're on 2.3.5 then you can manually update through Recovery. If you're on 2.3.6 then you might want to try flashing the fxz and then manually updating through Recovery.

You might double check your apns, Might try pulling your sim and battery for about 10 or 15 min to clear your location, you should register and connect to the nearest tower after boot up. I had that issue once and it was actually the market causing the problem. Make sure it's up to date and all good.

Still no solution
I tried many options but none of them seems working for connecting to my google account.
Than I removed My Memory Card and SIM from the mobile and connect through WiFi and I am able to connect to my google account.
The Market, Gmail, Youtube... everything starts working..
But as soon as Placed my SIM back and tried to connect through Edge/3G network i am still getting the same error and market and all other google apps just showing Loading....... even though with the same settings Internet on my device works perfectly fine.... Browser is opening all the sites pretty cool. But I am stick on the Default Google Apps that come preinstalled in the Android.
Plzzzzzz Help me guyzzzzzzz...................

Alright... I'm not quite sure what is causing your problem but I can bet that flashing the fxz will solve your problems.
There is a stickied thread in this section that has all you need to know about flashing an fxz, and more.

Ok i'll try that too and let u know whether it helps or not.
Having my finger crossed.. hope it works

Which service provider are you using? If you're not using AT&T I imagine you have the phone unlocked.. Could something wrong have happened with the unlock?
Does unlocking stay with the phone even after a fastboot flash?

Yuppp....... u r right.... I have an unlocked Atrix 2...
I am an Indian and I uses Vodafone Sim here.
And yes even after Fastboot Flash, it is still unlocked.
I was also worried when i was going to do a fastboot flash about unlocking issue.
But than i took the risk by my own and atleast after fastbooting it didn't get locked back to at&t.....
But no help regarding my issue of unable to connect to google account.
Though it works very much fine in WiFi but through SIM I am unable to do anything on google apps.
I had changed and tried the several APN's but none of them helping me...
Neither all other methods, such as Factory resetting, Youtube trick, etc , dont help me at all...
Still m searching for the solutions

Try another SIM card from your provider. This phone does have issues with SIM cards and weird things like that.

Flashing the fxz will not fix your issue, I promise. And I am not sure running SC v5 is the best option since you are having some issues. SC v5 is great, but it has some GPS issues, and a couple of other things. Since you are having this issue ONLY while using the cell singal, that should tell you that the issue lies on that part of the signal, and should be a very good lead in fixing it. I would talk with your phone provider.
Do a search on this forum for issues with atrix2 and SIM cards, this seems to fit the same bill we have been seeing over and over with phones that are not on a "true" HSPA+ "4G" style SIM card, there are even some people that had 2 of the same exact cards where one worked and the other did not. I would post a few links in here, but there are just too many to even give you a good few, to look at.
Jim

I have the same problem here.
Because sc v5.2 had a gps issue,then i go to bootstrap,wipe cache partition and wipe factory then restore 2.3.6 deodex and rebooted.
And now i can't connect to my google account.
Tomorrow i will try to restore sc v5 again and wish it will solve the problem.
Update: Restore sc v5 and now i'm able to connect to google account,but now i got fc.

Problem Solved
After so many hard reset, at last I am able to connect to my Google Account.
The most interesting fact is that problem is with the SIM's APN only.
Here in India, Vodafone provides two APN, one is "WWW" and other is "portalnmms".
I had tried both one by one but that didn't seem to work, than i found a thread on internet saying that add both the APN in a single APN, i.e., "WWW" in the APN field and "portalnmms" in the server field and change "Authentication Type" to "PAP" and leaving all other fields to default.
I did this and as soon as i saved these settings, everything starts working.
I am more than happy....

*SOLVED* "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server"

I've had issues with my phone where google services would eat up all my battery like 50%+.. To temp rid of this issue I would freeze google services, then when I wanted to check out the market I would have defrost services and update gmail info to use market. Now I get the issue stated above. Ive read of a youtube trick, but when I click "my channel" it says sign in and add account which sends me back to Add a Google Account.. Are my only options a hard reset?

Factory reset would be the way to go!

I backed up sd card and did a factory reset, when phone rebooted into recover it said E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/stl11. I restarted phone and same issue, not able to connect with market, yet file explorer was able to update by itself? Id like to try the youtube fix, but all i could find was the 2.4.4 version online and when I try to log on it sends me to sync.. Any other options? maybe hard reset??

Hmm.....I'd say GR then go from there.

I performed a one-click, had to download SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_1.5.4.0 after many failed attempts installing stock.. Then flashed vb-fb-build 3 twice consecutively and everything is much smoother Ive been flashing rom after rom etc etc.. So a clean install was good to do finally. Thanks for the help! If anyone has any questions feel free.

[Q] Problem with GooglePlay after installing UltraBeast v.2

So after almost a month of search and infinite closed threads, I finally found the ROM for my Miro that is truelly amazing and stock based (since I can't unlock my bootloader). I used the instructions posted on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250350
Now the problem: I can't log in into my google account nor can I make a new one. It just says: "Can't establish reliable connection to server. This could be a temporary problem or your Android device may not be provisioned for data services. If it continues, call Customer Care." Any ideas
Edit: I finally managed to sign in into my account but it's force closing now...this is really starting to get on my last nerve!

Rooted phone won't install apks, how can I fix this?

I recently rooted my phone, and it worked perfectly fine after that, but a few hours later, I noticed that the play store would not connect, even with a stable connection. Noticing this I thought to resync my account, however I was prompted with a notice saying "could not connect to Google servers, try again later." After getting this, I checked online for solutions, most of them being for me to download ES file explorer and delete a host file, however while trying to get the file explorer apk, I was told it wouldn't install. I finally resorted to a factory reset and I still have the same problem, and I can't get my backup data since I can't log into google accounts. Can someone help me?

So I tried doing this, flashing the stock ROM, and I ended up in a bootloop, I've been trying since yesterday but I just keep getting errors. My model is the SM-G930V

you might be better off asking in the Verizon forum as you have a Verizon S7.

Device managed by admin unable to set up google account [pixel 2]

Got this second hand google pixel 2 from a seller yesterday while setting up and connected to internet .until I started receiving a notification saying "Device managed by admin - Automatically resetting soon." When I tap on it, it gives me an error saying "Device setup keeps stopping". I checked the phone's IMEI but it doesn't classify as lost/stolen. If I try to factory reset the phone, it asks me for a "@google.com" adress. My question is, should I be worried? Is there any way to fix this?

You basically got a phone from a student who sold it to make some money and this is the property of a school. You could try to flash the whole OS again, but the choice is up to you

i can reflash the OS but i guess , the imei is saved in the portal of the school/company , so when i connect to internet it will again show the same message.

Just try it, maybe it's just a software solution

Ok thanks
Will clear the current image and install factory image

Hi I unlocked the boot loader and download the latest factory image how to clear the current system image from the phone in fastboot?

Device managed by admin — Automatically resetting soon — Google Pixel
Different stories from the internet for the same issue.
medium.com
solved it and published the article

I guess the shorter version is to just set it up offline and turn on usb debugging from the settings.
I don't think you even have how to proceed entering the work email by providing a simple gmail.
Anyhow,
This is what I've tried and done and it works great on Android 11 as long as there is no factory restet.
But this does not work on Android 12.
Do you have any solution for that?
Thank you!

the above solution worked for 11 and 12
normal Gmail account you can add quickly before the phone gives this error. Like within 1 minute after resetting the phone

I also got a pixel 3 XL phone with this issue as it accepted only google.com email and said it was managed by IT Admin, and I got this post and few others on this topic, followed the instructions given with my phone, I got a success on the last window. and my current android version is 12.
sannanthetraveller,​I wanted to ask what should be followed now to setup the phone so to avoid this issue coming up again.
and any other suggestions while using the phone, whether to disable anything like auto update check or?
Please let know.
