[Q] GTalk and Make it So issue - TouchPad General

Hey
Just seeing if anyone having problems with Gtalk and Make It So.
For some reason I cant get Gtalk to sign in. It tries to sign in but just cant. Also Make it So just doesn't work for some reason, does it work for anyone? Its not needed, but thought it would be cool.
Apart from these issues, love the pad but wish it had HDMI out and Java though.
Done all the patches and mods and seems to work really well
Thanks in advance

I've been using Gtalk and Make it so since day two, not issues here, that i'm aware of.

Did you use your gmail account as your webpage account? I'm thinking factory reset and start again.

If your Google password has special characters ([email protected]#$%&*?/ etc) it will give an error.

My gmail account syncs but I cannot IM, reflashed it, changed areas and made another profile but no dice.....annoying as

[Q] Gtalk on webOS
I'm having a little trouble getting WebOS to connect to my Gtalk account, it's not a matter of it not getting on with my Google account at all (it syncs contacts and everything else) but it just can't seem to connect to gtalk. I've enabled it in settings and still nothing.
The plan was to forward my texts through Gtalk so that I could reply on the Touchpad, but this is causing a little trouble.
Thanks in advance.

Working fine here

I did a lot more reading on it and it appears to be a problem with certain routers. This is most likely a bug on behalf of HP/Palm. Turns out Draytek/Netgear routers don't agree with Gtalk on the device. Colour me confused.

that is definitely odd.
i use a netgear wireless router as an access point...and vyatta as my core router.

I can confirm this as 100% annoying especially as the IM works quiet well at my mums but wont work at my house.

[Q] Touchpad Gtalk issues?
Anyone else having issues signing into Google Talk on the Touchpad's messaging application?
Skype worked fine, Gtalk keeps asking me to check my account - enter the password again and it does nothing - change to available/busy and it asks for account details again.

will try signing in using a wifi hotspot from my desire later...
hopefully the 3.0.3 or whatever OTA comes out fixes this

tried connected to wifi hotspot from htc desire and failed to sign in to gtalk

Have the exact same problem over the last few days
hi folks.. I'm having the exact same problem.. Skype and Gtalk IM both worked for a long time, than about 3-4 days ago, Gtalk IM will not sign in.
I too have a Draytek router but still, it use to work. I also have Make it So but had that installed for over a week.... Weird stuff going on here...

What is "Make it so"
Don't see it in the market.

[solved] enable google account 2 step auth
go to gmail ...account settings... Enable 2 step auth or if you already did, add new device. Once I did that and input new password on TP I was able to sign into gtalk.

Can't access Android Market over wifi or login to Google Mail App and Sync not workin

Hi Experts,
Sorry if I sound a little crude and maybe a novice(I am), but I have been a Symbian user so far and finally decided to take the plunge to Android. I received my HTC Hero a couple of days back and tried to connect to Android Market with my google account, but in vain. Tried to use the Google Mail app, but again failed. Am I missing something here? Tried to use HTC Sync with my lappy, but no success.
Provider: Orange UK.
Connectivity: Wifi (No data plan on Sim)
Laptop OS: Win 7 64-bit (connecting usin USB cable)
I have read a lot of threads on xda and on the internet and tried quite a few things, but no success.
Thanks in advance,
Jag
Closing thread as there is another one though not for UK. Will wait for that to resolve.

I had the same problem, and some packet sniffing showed that Android tries to contact google on port 5228/tcp. Our work wifi firewalls non-standard ports, presumably this is why I cannot download from the market (Hangs forever at "starting download") or sign into gtalk over wifi. Switching to 3G data, everything works fine (though the Market stalls a lot).
I had an issue where it wouldn't accept my details unless I entered them in on the initial setup screen.
i.e. if I skipped past the "set up google mail" bit, and went back later, it didn't work.
workaround was reverting to factory install and making sure to enter my account details at the start (and I used wifi since I was in my home, so it should definately work)
It worked for me after i manually set the APN for my carrier.
Please same problem, HTC Magic 32B Ion 1.6, how can I do?
Yes you should always try to log into google at the very start otherwise some problems can be caused.

All OK!
I did a wipe and all ok
How am I supposed to do this after a factory reset if I connect thru wifi, since I must first enable wifi radio and then put a password, so that means I would have to skip the "wizard" so that defeats the purpose of factory resetting everything... please help.
Solved
Logically, what you say is right, but practically it actually worked
1) after the factory reset, i get the google signin screen,
at that moment, my wifi wont be enabled.....but still i went ahead and entered the username and
password and clicked the signin button
as expected it throwed a message saying "it cant connect"
along with it it also said may be you are not on wifi with a
"connect to wifi button", which will take to the wifi screen where you can connect to wifi and it comes back to the google signin screen, where you login again....
.............there you go it signs in successfully now.
Hope this helps

Hi
I am facing the same problem with my device (Galaxy S2). I am able to surf web with the stock phone browser using wifi, but apps won't connect. Apps connect only through GPRS.
I was wondering if you were able to resolve the issue. Could you please help me ?
Anyone else has a solution to this problem.
My phone has the stock firmware, purchased the phone today.
Apps have never worked over wifi, but the browser works.
Cannot download anything on wifi, for that only my GPRS/3G works.
Please help
I have been using my desire for over a year and it has been great, but now I also have this problem of no market or google mail over my WiFi. I was going to do a factory reset and start again, but after reading the posts on this thread this may not resolve the problem.
Has anyone found a fix for this problem
I have this problem too. I doubt it's the manufacture deliberately use its stock sbf to stop people using wifi to save data bandage. So they can make more money with the mobile operators!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1281034
me too I guess
well i was having a similar problem(would connect to wifi, the browser worked but not the apps).in my case, i have my router setup with the dhcp server off(you have to assign an static ip address manually to every device you that you are going to connect to the router) i solved my problem by enabling the "use static ip" check box and filling all the information(ip address, gateway, netmask, dns 1 and dns 2)on the advance settings tab in wifi settings.

[Q] Aria Wifi

I have the HTC Aria with CM 6.1.1 installed on it.
Since the time I installed CM 6, I haven't been able to connect to the school network. I could do so in Liberated Aria (FRxx) and the stock 2.1 ATT Rom but not in CM6.
The thing is, my school has a login page that allows a student to login using his id and password and whenever someone tries to navigate to a page (google for example), the server would redirect to this login page first. Only after a user logs in, he can proceed to surf the web.
It works perfectly fien on my laptop and used to work in the Sense ROMs but for some reason, it doesn't work in CM6. 3G data works perfectly though.
I tried searching the forum but couldn't find a similar question. Someone asked this question in the Cyanogen Mod forum too but it was left unanswered.

If I'm remembering correctly it could be our wifi driver may not be compatible with their router or something along g those lines. Somebody can correct me on that though. Also, at the public library where I live every once in a while I wont be able to use the wifi. It will say connected but no internet. But if I go back the next day it works fine (reset their routers maybe?)

Thank you for that!
Is there a workaround for this? I hate to use the 3G data connection (which is paid, thank you ATT ) instead of the free WiFi that I could use instead. Also, at the place where I work on campus, I get no 3G. All I get there is EDGE.
I had this problem happen to me and couldn't find a solution for it. The only solution I found was to go to Liberated (I use the HK kernel) instead of CM6.
i would try using CM7 instead of CM6.
the CM7 nightlies were slow. even CM6 is pretty slow unless the aria is overclocked and doing this ruins the battery life. But i still prefer to use cm6 (for now atleast). Is there a way this issue can be rectified in cm6?
Anyone?? Hello!! People say that the android development community is very active but I've always found it otherwise. People like Cyanogen and attn release great mods but not always help people out with their problems. Isn't that unfair?

I find this to be the complete opposite of what I have experienced. I just got my phone Feb. 23rd and have rooted it flashed 3 different rom's and a couple nightlys. Like stated before, just get on the irc chat and start asking, but I do guarantee if you go with this kind of attitude you won't get far Good luck and I hope your problems get resolved.
did you consider asking IT at your college or checking their website for information on wifi?

I'm guessing that you used your browser after enabling WiFi and disabling data and entered your username and password mentioned above? Does this page even show up for you after this update?
immediately after you connect to the wifi, go to browser and try to open up a new page, that login should show up. (this is based on other networks where i have done the same thing)

thanks. Tried it but did not work.
I realized that since I started using the CM6.1.1 ROM, my phone's IP address doesn't show up at my home wireless router's logs. All I can see is my MAC id.
Could that be the problem?
You might want to give this new CM7 based ROM a try. It's based on CM7 nightly 21 and it fixes the known issues with hidden SSID's and reconnecting to "remembered" networks. I'm running it now and it's excellent.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=996331
Edit: I expect that the changes in this ROM will be merged into the regular CM7 nightly builds in the very near future.

I dunno why it's been deleted, but in any case, the problems that ROM was designed to fix have been addressed a long time ago and current versions of CM7 shouldn't have those issues.
I'm working with CM7 no problem with hidden wireless networks, but it do seems that the phone get less reception on the wireless network. even if I'm close to routers I get only 2-3 bars on the wireless icon. Don't know why is that.

Gmail Google sync issues?

I posted this on another website...but you guys at CDS are usually the best with solutions..do here goes...
Not sure if this is a prime thing, tablet thing or honeycomb thing...but here goes...
I have a huge pet peeve that I slowly discovered...I have my old milestone phone next to me and my prime in my hands...when I receive an email on my gmail account, I get it near instantaneously in my phone...but in my tablet, it takes anywhere from 2 to 15 minutes.
All my sync settings are fine and on...I tried clearing my gmail data..changing from echo to balanced to normal modes..and no significant difference...
Anyone know what may be causing this?
Thanks...
I've noticed the same thing. I'm not sure what causes it. But it would be interesting to see why
Sent from my DROIDX using xda premium
Are you using the Mail or GMail App? I have noticed the Mail App does not have "Push" Sync Capabilities to GMail accounts. You can only set polling intervals. Try setting up the GMail App and see if your results improve.
What kind of connection were you using on your Droid? Wifi or mobile data?
Because push via wifi is very slow...if your are on mobile data switch to wifi and test again
I am having the same issue, using the Gmail app on both devices, both are on the same wifi network as well. I hear my phone notification go off but I have to go into Gmail and refresh to get the new emails to appear.
I am using the gmail app...not the email one...I know about the push for gmail, that is why I use it with my phone
I guess it may be wifi since it is a wifi only tablet and my phone is on both wifi and hspa...
Glad to hear it's not only me having/noticing this issue...but kind of disappointed that there might be no fix for this?
If anyone knows, please let me/us know!
But it's interesting that even on wifi we seem to still have the problem...
Yep I'm having this issue as well.
TF201 / XDA premium
My phone is instant. Then Outlook will go off, then my tablet.
Well..hopefully the ics update will help or even fix the issue. Can't wait...supposed to come in February at the latest...we'll see
Other than these little possible adjustments...love my prime so far!

Motorola Email App not pushing emails all the time

I am using Motorola Email App on my RAZR instead of Gmail App because of the looks and functionality.
The problem with Motorola Email App is that not pushing Gmail accounts all the time and sometimes I have to do a manual sync to receive my new emails. But some times it works just fine.
What could be the posible reason of this behaviour?
Hi,
I have the exactly same issue as you have - my imap accounts are not getting pushed emails but the gmail application itself is ok so it seems that only the motorola's email application is affected...
I rised a ticket to motorola's support because this behavior is not acceptable but they told me that they in fact don't know whats wrong and I should wait for the update which MIGHT fix the issue but they are not sure:
Our technician advises that a software update might address the described fault, however we cannot guarantee this.

Wi-Fi Problem Please help!

I've had the same problem with a different device, and never found an answer.
In fact, I trade that phone (Evo 3D) for this S2 (i777).
Heres the thing, for some reason my phone refuses to work on the school's wifi. Its annoying. On my last phone, I thought that it was just that phone, but apparently its not. Now I'm having the same problem on my S2. I can get notifications every now and then but cant use the wifi at all. Sometimes, randomly throughout the day, I can get about 1 - 5 minutes out of it, but then it just stops working again.
I kinda think it has something to do with my Gmail being synced or something, I really have no clue. It has the word "freaking" in it. I just dont think its a coincidence that BOTH phones in a row have the exact same problem. I didnt have the problem with any iPhone I've ever had.
I really need wifi, and I dont wanna get a new phone, so I would appreciate it a lot if some knew what this is about.
It connects and everything. Says it has great signal. Just doesnt work.
Im running the stable CM9.1, straight from the Cyanogenmod website. So its their kernel and all that good stuff. Android 4.0.4.
I know the ROM isnt the problem cause every ROM I flashed on my Evo didnt help at all.
Anyway, any help or tips anyone can give would be great. Thanks!
By the way, the wifi works perfectly fine every where else. Home, College, friend's house. etc.
You need to verify your school does not require special network settings or a proxy.
If you can see the network and connect then its just a settings issue. Have you tried reverting to stock?

I can connect just fine, as normal. It just doesn't allow me internet access.
By stock, do you mean the stock ICS Touchwiz? No. But I guess its worth a try. The only reason I didnt see that as a solution is because on my last phone, I had the same problem whether I was running stock or not.
It sounds like you need a proxy address to access the Internet at your school. Talk to the administrators of the network.

They have proxies restricted from what I know. I dont know too much about proxies, but I tried using a few different proxy apps and none of them worked.
And it doesnt do this to other peoples' phones. Why is it just mine? My other phone was an HTC on Sprint. It just seems like a weird coincidence that both phones have the same problem, and they're two completely different devices. That's why I thought it had to do with Gmail, I know that sounds stupid, but its the only thing the two phones have in common.

I get what you're saying, believe me, but I just dont see how its a wrong setting. Its default settings ( until I tinkered around trying to fix it). I assume all of my less-knowledgeable friend's phones are default settings too. So it just doesn't seem to make sense that the default settings on two of my phones are the wrong settings, while every other phone seems to have it right to begin with.
I get what your saying, but I cant just talk to our Tech Guy at our school. It just doesnt work like that at my school. Lol. Thats why I'm asking for help on here.
And I dont think the multiple ROMs I've tried have the wrong defaults also.
Then sit down with a friend and make sure EVERY setting Is the same. Make sure you are both running android and using the same browser. If they are on CM too that would be best.
It sounds like something is blocking you from accessing the Internet while on the schools network. I don't think we will be of much help.

I can try the thing with my friend. Im just really the only one in my group of friends that's into, and actually knows a lot about Android devices. So they dont seem like much help. Haha.
And I was hoping people could tell me some ideas I havent tried yet. I know Android, but I dont know much about wireless networks and all that.
I'd love to help more, but since only one wifi network doesn't work for you it has to be something with that network.

Do you need to log in to your school's network? If so, when you enter your login id, if there's a line for anonymous id too, add your login id there as well. In other words, you have to enter your login id twice. Once where it says "login id" and again for "anonymous id."
If that doesn't work, what would help here is more info about how you connect (WPS, WPA, etc.).

Proxies (Dont work)
I've tried static IP.
Factory resetting to stock Android (Every time I restart my phone it works for like a minute.)
BUT, I think I came across something. I compared my settings to a friend's, and his phone showed a different IP address. I'm still not sure if it was the IP to his phone, or to the school. How do I find out which IP is which?
Can anyone explain why it works for a minute or two and then stops?
Have you tried going to: Settings->wifi->advanced (you get to advanced by clicking the menu button) to make sure that:
Keep wifi on during sleep: ALWAYS
Avoid poor connections: UNCHECKED
Frequency band: AUTO
Wifi Region: United States
You may want to uncheck wifi optimization.
Oh, one other thing: you aren't using any battery optimization apps are you? JuiceDefender etc? If so, follow their instructions for uninstalling and uninstall!
Beyond that, I haven't got a clue. And no, your IP address has nothing to do with it. It should be different from your friend's.

I know for a fact that there is nothing making my Wifi turn off. I dont use any battery optimizer. And I dont have a clue either. I've never been so stumped. I've done research and found other people with a similar problem, but didnt see solutions on those threads either.
I cant connect using wifi.
Sorry guys, iam needidng your help.

When i push button to put on. The Wifi show me this messege "Stating on..."
But never finish to starting.

I had made a factory reset and nothing.
i changed the rom but nothing.
Now iam using Stockshock 3 with syha kernel.
is there any solution for this problem? or my wifi is already dead?
i'll appreciate your response.
