I get error code 805a0193 when I try to download apps over WiFi. When I switch WiFi off, I can download them over 3G. I tried a HTC Tropy and a Samsung Omnia 7 on more than one WiFi network.
I also tried Nodo and Mango 7712 with the only difference that Nodo is not giving the error code but also fails over wifi.
Since I can download the apps over 3G, it must be some WiFi or maybe ISP / service provider issue?
I am using the South African marketplace with the Vodacom service provider.
Any luck Willie? I have the same problem...
No luck, it appears to be a marketplace issue. Hopefully when mango launches (and the official marketplace) we will have more info to troubleshoot.
Router or ISP?
I have exactly the same problem, but it seems to be isolated to my home network.
downloading via wifi at the office or at a friend's place works like a charm.
The only difference I can think of here is either the router (netgear) or my ISP (webafrica)
Anyone have any other ideas?
Same issue
Hi,
I have the same issue, also a Netgear modem and Afrihost as an ISP. I've logged several calls with Microsoft and they don't even know what is going on. I then installed Connectify and the Microsoft Network Monitor app (basically created my own HotSpot via 3G) an logged all the packets - it seems like the Marketplace server gives an "access denied" error... So am not sure how to get around that.
hmmm... so since you have a netgear marbur79, that MAY be the problem.
When I get a chance, I'm going to switch to 2 difference ISP's.
Namely, telkomsa and mweb. Will post my findings.
Perhaps you can try the same?
Are you guys on mybb at all? Anyway, same issue here, ISP is MWeb.
I do not think its the router. I tried d-link and netgear. I believe there is some issues with the marketplace setup if you access it from South Africa so Microsoft will have to fix it. I also asked the question to Microsoft. Follow the thread on
answers.microsoft.com/en-us/winphone/forum/wp7-wpapps/marketplace-download-error-805a0193-over-wifi/31dd8c5b-3d83-4037-aeb9-1af03133073b

Yeah, I'm on mybb...what router are you using? I've tried this at my dad's place and it works perfectly, so don't think it can be a problem in SA.
He's got an elcheapo router connecting to telkom.

Netgear, but Mweb itself is getting 403 forbidden when accessing it. Telkom is working, but Mweb, WA, Afrihost do not.

So you've can safely say that its the ISP causing this issue?
I'll have a word with WB.
My ISP, surewest, is definately causing the issue. Free Wifi outside of my house works. Pre Mango works (dunno about Nodo, I just got the phone yesterday, and it came with 7008). ATT Mobile Data works. I disabled the firewall for a moment, and it still failed to work.
I am also having the same issue and it would seems as if there is no real answer yet?
I have WP7 HD7 with upgrade to full Mango 7720. I also received and updated an update from HTC (all updates over Zune). I am on Vodacom but with UK Live ID.
The small apps I can download over 3G, but the bigger ones request for WiFi.
I have switched to airplane mode and switched only the Wi-Fi on, linked directly to LinkSys WAG54AGS. ISP is Afrihost. I even installed a virtual WiFi network on laptop. No luck.
DNS Issue
Hi guys,
I found out that this is caused by a rogue DNS entry in the SA ISP's DNS servers. If you change your router's DNS address to 8.8.8.8 to use Google's DNS server instead the issue is resolved.

Works like a charm thanks mate!
Strange but works
Change locale. Switch off wifi. Off it goes. Switch back wifi. I'm investigating the reasons. Its windows. Same on Nokia.
If I run an app that accesses the internet after the phone has been idle for a while it frequently just sits there spinning for 15-30 sec or so before it starts downloading. The download speed itself is quite fast. This initial pause happens with many apps. Once it's working ok things are snappy until it sits idle again for a while. I have it set for never disconnect from wifi, and I'm using a fixed IP address (had it set for DHCP previously and no difference). I have no problems with the 3 computers running on the same router, and my ISP connection speed is very good. I have 4 bars on the wifi strength icon, and little if any death grip issue. Running pure stock, not even rooted.
Anyone else seen this or have any ideas what would cause it?
Edit: Fixed by setting phone and router DNS to Google servers (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4)
Yeah I got too. I just turn data off and on again, that always do the trick.
Tried that trick and it did help, so good to know. But still an annoying bug and hassle to exit app, toggle wifi, and restart app. I guess it gives me something to do instead of just staring at the paused screen.
Hehe, but it will wear off. Mine is kinds stopped right now
So, is this happening to everyone or just a small percentage? Asking because the answer could determine if it's something on my phone or router I need to change, versus a HTC/Android bug. I've submitted a HTC bug report, but from past experience their tech support is less than worthless.
I used set dns from the market and opted for the google servier settings.
I used this app because I was getting pauses when loading up the market. Using the above app pretty much solves the delay issue for me.

Is Set DNS different than manually setting it under the wifi advanced settings? I have set mine manually to Google DNS and so far it's working better, but will take some time to see if it lasts. I'll update either way.
Thanks for the tip.
Update:
Setting DNS to Google DNS didn't solve the problem. Still getting very long pause on initial internet access after sitting idle for 15 minutes or so. Toggling wifi off/on does fix it, but that should not be necessary.
Is this common or rare? Really would like to know if it's a known phone bug, or my specific phone/router/ISP.
Based on so few responses I concluded it must be something in my setup. Ended up changing both the phone and my router's DNS to Google (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4), which appears to have solved the problem. Oddly setting just the phone's DNS didn't fix it, it took changing the router as well. Also, it's not clear to me why toggling the wifi on the phone resolved the pause issue temporarily each time if the DNS server being used was the issue. But, if it's fixed I'll take it.
Thanks for the advice that did end up leading to a solution.
Just received my Nexus 5 today and I'm noticing some strange connectivity issues while on WiFi. Some apps would complain network is unavailable, Facebook would load with no pictures, etc. This happens randomly, sometimes after few minutes others - an hour(s). Rebooting the phone or even cycling WiFi off/on usually recovers it, until it happens again. Cellular data works fine all the time. It can't be the WiFi network I'm connecting to as I have a myriad of devices that have worked and continue working without any problems.
I tried 3 other WiFi networks (different routers) with different configurations of encryption as well no encryption, switching between 5GHz, 2.4GHz, no matter what, problem occurs sooner or later.
Noticed on Google support forums few users describing exactly the same issue, surprised I didn't find reports here on XDA. Maybe not many people got their phones yet.
Anyone else getting the same "treatment" from their new Nexus 5?

I am seeing exactly the same thing. Wifi will work great, then all of a sudden, nothing. Stays that way for a couple of minutes, then all of a sudden it works again.
How many bars does the sifi icon show ?
Number of bars doesn't matter. I can have full bars sitting a meter from the router and issue would happen anyways.
I tried playing with WiFi optimizations in advanced settings to no avail unfortunately. Hopefully this is a bug that Google can quickly fix with a software update

Same here. Got my N5 yesterday and experienced the same at home. Same for my brother.
Hope that gets clarified soon. Not the nicest feeling having a new phone with that (or any) kind of issue...
Yes, my N5 started doing the same on my home wifi connections (using Apple's Airport Extreme 2.4/5GHz router).
The Playstore or Youtube apps would not display images or take forever. When I switched wifi off those apps worked fine.
I got it working again when I "forgot" my wifi setting for the 2.4 and 5Ghz channels then reconnected to the 2.4. I'll let that run for a day or so then try activating the 5Ghz.
Hmmm... This may have been what was going on here...

--EDIT
OOPs my mistake...
I looked in Setting/Wifi/Advanced ...
I turned OFF "Avoid Poor Connections"
and everything seems to work the way i want ( when i tell it to go to Wifi, it does that )
--EDIT end
i added star to this issue because of same problem . If enough stars get added Google may get on it.
(Didn't know if I should create a new thread for this as it is a wifi issue but seems to be soemthing different than what the OP decribed, my issues are related only to playstore app downloading)
I too am having terrible wifi issues on my new Nexus 5. But mine are different from those described here I think. Whenever I cycle through the wifi, turn it off and on again it doesn't fix the problem (not temporarily and ofc not permanently)
When browsing the web, the play store and mostly everything it works great and is very fast, BUT when downloading or updating an app the wifi speed is practically non-existant.
Sometimes showing that it will take 25 hours to download a 25mb app :S
This while my Galaxy Nexus on the same wifi network is as speedy as ever.
I have tried factory resetting my Nexus 5, I have cleared the cache and data of the play services app and of the play store app, I have tried changing the wifi bands (from auto, to 5 to 2.4 and back to auto), I have turned off the wifi optimization, but none of those things helped. I even tried some DNS HSPC wifi settings thingy I read here
That didn;t help either.
I have unplugged my router and replugged it in but that didn't help either.
I literally had to leave my brand new Nexus 5 downloading all night just so that it could install the apps I wanted on it. So far for playing around with the phone on day 1
What makes it even weirder is that occasionaly the wifi issues resolve itself and I can get good download speeds for several seconds or sometimes up to a few minutes, but then right after it is straight back to crap speeds. Some other reported that only while making a portion of the map available offline in Google Maps their app download speeds were great, but that didn't work for me either.
I don't know what to do and if it is a hardware issue or a software issue. Please help me.
Below some info that might be useful to helping me solve this.
White Nexus 5 32GB
Bought from US play store
Shipped to and using it in the Netherlands
Currently does not have a SIM card inside (that is still in my Galaxy Nexus till the wifi issues are resolved)
Unrooted, only installed the mandatory update during the setup
All apps downloaded are apps that are also on my Galaxy Nexus which works without a hitch
Any and all suggestions/ideas/help are welcome
I think the problem somehow related to DNS. I found that if I configure static IP settings and point DNS to Google's instead router's, things work normally. I reconfigured my router to advertise 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 as DNS servers for the DHCP and now for over 24 hours I haven't experienced the disconnection issue.
If your router cannot be reconfigured, try assigning static IP settings and Google's DNS to see if it helps.
I still believe that's a software bug on the phone, we can't blame a device (the router) that has worked for years and works fine with everything else but the Nexus 5, being at fault.

I currently can't reconnect to my Wi-Fi at home as it's stuck showing the last scan I did some 40 miles away at a shopping centre earlier today.
Of course none of these networks are now present, yet all mine are shown as not found!
Guessing a reboot will fix it as toggling Wi-Fi didn't. Mobile data is working fine.

Not as tech as I want to be, so could you explain to me what the difference is in setting the DNS to Google's instead of routers? I have no idea what DNS is/does so what happens when you point it soemwhere else?

DNS stands for Domain Name Service. What it basically does is to translate those easy to remember names such as www.Google.com to the actual numeric address (also called IP address) of the server that serves that site on the Internet. Home routers almost always sport built-in DNS service to speed up name translation requests from internal devices. What I figured is going on on the nexus 5 is it "doesn't seem to like" some DNS servers. Works fine with some, doesn't with others. What happens is at one point, for whatever reason, it stops being able to translate names to addresses and as result "decides" there is no working connection as it fails to connect to the corresponding servers. Google hosts publicly available DNS servers with the easy to remember IP addresses of 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 which apparently Nexus 5 doesn't have problem working with. Once it gets "instructed" to use them instead router's, everything works fine.
At least that's what I figured is going on so far.

Thanks, but that wouldn't fix my issue right, because it doesn't explain why only play store downloads are terribly slow while the rest works fine.
Gave it a shot and at first it seemed to work, but after a short while the problem re-arose
DNS has nothing to do with weak or lost WIFI connections...
You can be perfectly connected, at full n speed to a WIFI AP without getting proper acces to Internet : THIS can DNS isue.
But in no way a DNS isue can leads to lost or very weak WIFI signal.
2 solutions are possible with Nexus 5 :
- WIFI module has the same badly coded shape as camera one...
- its hardware related wich, no need to say, could be the worst case...
I am having the same issue since day one. In fact it just occurred as I was replying to this thread. Mostly occurs when the phone comes out of sleep mode. However it will occur often and at random.

Hi,
Why am I getting this notification for the 1st time in approx 2 months that have got a OPO, despite that am connected to WiFi?
Hoping to hear from you experts.
Thanks.
This sort of thing normally pops up when the WiFi network wants you to go to some sort of page, this is usually for a login to free WiFi hotspots, I assume this Dlink is your WiFi? Perhaps it wants you to open this page to change a configuration or login. This doesn't seem to be Android related at all but more to do with your router, could you try tapping on the notification and screenshot the page it opens, if any.
He's right. This looks like a router setting that you might have turned on like guest mode.

This is a router setting then, that page is some sort of login. Perhaps guest mode has been enabled on your router? Try this:
Settings>Wi-Fi>Modify Network>Show advanced options> Change DHCP to Static. Here, find the box that says Gateway and note the IP here. Now change Static back to DHCP and close this menu.
Go into the browser on your OPO and put in this Gateway IP, this will take you to the router config. The login for this is usually on the bottom of the router, otherwise the default can be found by searching the router model number, try finding a guest mode setting and turning it off - I really don't know... You can also change your WiFi name and password here if you like
I can't really help you any more than that.

1. Changed router's password.
2. Guests mode is Off.
3. All apps working with WiFi except GMail and GPS.
4. Still see the notification.
5. Should WPS be Enabled, it is disabled at the moment?
6. You don't recommend a factory reset what about a re flash of 30 OR?
Thanks.
Your phone is working fine, it seems you have triggered some sort of bug in Android's WIFI login detection.
The system works by accessing DNS and check if the resulting IP is owned by google.com or some network-internal redirection/replacement by a login page.
Now, the IP 173.194.35.96 is owned by Google, so the DNS lookup obviously worked perfectly but for some reason the phone gets an unexpected answer from that server. Which makes me guess to one of the 2 following options:
a) one of the computers in your network is infected and Google keeps showing the "Prove you're human" captcha window on requests.
b) your provider is replacing failed DNS lookups with it's own "helper" page which for some reason is making Android trip. If possible, change the DNS servers in your router to either OpenDNS or Google DNS.

That's entirely your choice. However I would only recommend enabling it if it's the "Push to WPS" method and not constantly on - WPS is broken and depending on your router it takes between 1 to 10'000 attempts (1 second to ~ 2 hours) to break into your WIFI. Not good!

Cloudflare DNs, returns "couldn't connect" and I loss wifi no less.
I've tried: 1dot1dot1dot1.cloudflare-dns.com and one.one.one.one neither seem to work, same message.
Automatic does work, however I want to use Cloudflare over Google (though that is better than the carrier). I've verified I can connect to both these addresses when using Automatic, I just can not set either as the DNS server. It seems like a chicken and the egg issue I need DNS to resolve DNS, come fro ma Onplus 6 with custom ROMs I've never seen this before.

Actually it is set on the router as the default followed by Google and finally the ISP's. However that only works when at home.

Mine seems to work fine? Try another DNS like "securedns.eu" or "dns.quad9.net" and see if they work
