Play Store Problems? - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

I keep getting errors from play store saying "Connection Timed Out". It's been happening all day and it happens on 3G or Wifi. Anybody else having this problem. I noticed Youtube was acting up too. It lost my account info and I was getting connection errors. Everything else seems to be working fine like the browser and other apps that use data.

I haven't used play store much today but it's fine the times I have used it

Play Store is not letting me DL apps. It starts the download, but never finishes, it just stays at the DL part. Cleared Data and signed back in, same problem. This is new today, as I used it yesterday and it was fine.
Edit: just tried to play a video from Youtube and it wont DL either. Must be a Google problem??

Play Store seems to be working fine on my phone, but when I go to download an app via my laptop it gets stuck on 'Loading device compatibility'

Looks like it's most likely a Google issue and not the phones. I'll monitor it. Hopefully they get it all sorted out soon.

I noticed this the day I bought the phone.
It's really annoying when I've got app updates. If I click on the batch update button to update multiple apps, it won't complete unless I stay on the update page and keep the phone from going to sleep. Otherwise, the first app will update and the rest will stall on "downloading". This happen pre and post root.
Very annoying.

Not sure whats going on with my tablet

So for the last few days I've been getting the process google.process.gapps force close. I read the other thread about this problem and it seemed related to the bookmark syncing, so I took off all of the syncs and then synced them back up (other than the browser) and the problem continued.
Today I turned the tablet on, and now when I open the browser it pops open then immediately disappears every time. I am also getting force closes for anything that syncs just as gmail and music without even opening the apps...just force closes keep popping up so I could barely even do anything (even after I took off every sync again).
I'm sure there is a pretty simple solution to this, but does anybody have a suggestion?
Have you tried clearing data and cache from the GAPPS?
After shutting it down last night out of frustration, it seems to be working fine today even though I tried that same thing last night.
Strange...but if it happens again I will give that a try. Thanks.

[Q] Streaming Video and G-Mail very broken on my Evo 3D

Two big problems with my EVO 3D that are driving me crazy:
1. I have been having this streaming video issue for a few months now. No matter what streaming video service I use (although mostly YouTube or the G4TV app) the video will start to massively lag eventually. The timing is always different, sometimes its a minute in, sometimes its 10 minutes in, but it WILL eventually start to lag. The sound is still playing, but the video stutters or flat-out stops. And it turns out its not just the video, my ENTIRE PHONE lags when this happens, so much that the hardware buttons and touchscreen don't respond until about 30 seconds to a minute later. This only appears to happen when streaming video, already-downloaded video plays just fine off of the SD card. Half of the time Sense appears to crash when this happens too, since I see it restarting after I exit the streaming app. My cousin has an EVO 3D as well and this isn't happening to him, nor have I see anyone mention about this on Google ) the instances of lag I found were buffering issues. I don't have any idea where to begin finding out what is causing this, does anyone have any hints?
2. My G-Mail app stopped working. And I don't mean it stopped syncing like it has for others before, I mean it dosen't work anymore period. I can still launch the app, my accounts are still there, but NO new mail since Janurary 12 has shown up, manually choosing refresh does nothing. I tried rebooting my phone, and even clearing the Gmail app's data.... all it does now is say "Your email will appear shortly" ... its been saying this for about three days now. I can't even use G-Mail on my phone anymore! Help?

Are you rooted? If so, are you on a custom ROM? If yes, which one? On average a simple wipe fixes the problems you talking about. I can't say much about the streaming issue since I've never experienced it, but for the Gmail issue, go into Settings>Applications>Manage applications and find Gmail, then "Clear data". Once you set it up again the problem should go away (at least that's my experience).

As I said, I already tried that, didn't work.

[Q] Data Speed fine but drops constantly

I use my phone at work to listen to Pandora and TuneIn a lot, but one day it started stuttering so bad I could no longer use them.
For example, with Pandora, when I start the app it'll say "Loading" or "Buffering 1%" then skip to the next song.. and skip to the next song, and so on. When listening to TuneIn is plays for a bit, then buffers, stops, plays, stops plays, enough to pretty much be un-listenable.
Now I've tried everything, re-provisioned, factory wiped, even installed a whole new ROM (MeanICS) and it still does this. I've wiped and re-installed the applications, still a no go.
Ran SpeedTest multiple times and everything seems fine. Anyone have a clue as to what in the world is going on?
I blame the network. I don't know what the hell is going on, but I have had more issues with the data on this phone than I have on my old phone. I've talked to Sprint about it and they offer zero help on the issue. I also can't get "Roam only" to work on my phone, so I've been trying to rotate songs through my SD card.
Network issues try a profile.and prl update
Hit the thanks button if i helped
I've experienced this a few times while downloading apps or surfing the web. At times it flies and other times it just crawls. My reception is always 4 or 5 bars and asking Sprint why something isn't working is like pulling teeth.

yea man i do that to and i love google music and when im on 3g it keeps on loading so i keep songs on my sd card also but sometimes google play works on a 3g network. hopefully LTE works alot better.
The nice thing about Google Music is the offline cache, it decreases the pauses when I'm switching between no signal/1x/EVDO. Unfortunately it isn't as helpful when you're mostly without a signal.

Mobile data network slows and disconects.

Hello, I've been having some issues while browsing the internet with chrome or using Imgur's app. I started noticing that after a period of time Gifs on the imgur app start becoming choppy even after waiting for them to completely download. Only after turning off my data and then turning it back on will the gifs play normally.
Another strange thing when the phones data connection seems to slow down, I had tried to use chrome (and firefox) and it gave me unable to connect to the internet errors. I forgot the exact error message. All I know is that if I turn off data then turn it back on quickly it will be fine.
Even stranger, while my lg g5 was giving me "unable to connect to the internet" errors, I turned on the hotspot on the g5 and used the Wi-Fi on my older lg optimus g chrome browser and it would connect and browse online just fine.
Anyone have similar experiences or ideas why this happens?
The next time this happens I'll probably head to the att store and see what they can figure out.
I've had some similar issues like that which started last week while doing Google searches and also on chrome. Very strange. I've had my G5 since mid April

Problem installing apps & sending/receiving texts

Hi all,
I've read a bunch of useful stuff on this forum and hope you guys could provide an answer for the 2 issues I have on my Honor 7.
Since a few days sending texts takes extremely long time. Incoming texts also have a serious delay (hours later). I've checked with the provider and they don't have any issues on their network.
Second issue I noticed is that installing/updating apps from the Play Store is also very slow. Downloading is normal but then it just waits and waits a very longtime before it actually starts installing ... I cleaned the cache and restarted my phone already several times but no luck.
Before I continue with a backup and factory reset, I would like to ask for any ideas or thing I could try to resolve these issues.
Thanks in advance !
Update: I did a factory reset and had my phone import apps/settings etc from my Google account.
texting and installing/updating apps were working fine again So me was very happy !
However ... a few hours later of checking apps and re-configuring them ... I noticed a had the exact same issue again ! :crying:
Clearly there is some software/app issue causing this, but I have no idea which one, how or wat is causing this.
Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.
I've factory reset again my phone and am now configuring manually without the Google backup ... #wasteoftime
memory left
both problem(slow text sending/receiving & app downloading) have one thing common issue with the Network. can u run a internet speed test or try using home broadband/wifi
also can you check and share how much phone memory you got
how many apps u got running in the background
when i used honor 7 i did notice that phone get slow/unresponsive if your internet is poor
also uninstall/disable facebook messenger or at least roll back to basic version if u must want to keep it
updates mostly make phones slow
I have the Honor 7 premium and it has 32GB storage and 3GB RAM. Before I did the first factory reset today, there was about 5GB of free storage space. The downloading of apps is actually just fine but between 100% downloading and beginning the actual install, there was a veery long waiting time.
I don't use Facebook on my phone and the working speed of my device was also still working fine. it's just sending texts that just takes ages and I'm receiving texts with hours of delay.
I'm sure it's not the network or provider as after both factory resets it worked fine again. It still does after the 2nd reset but now I'm installing/configuring apps one by one and testing sending/receiving texts every 2-3 apps.
I'm pretty sure it is related to some app conflict that appears al of a sudden but have no idea what ....
Think I've found it ... devexpert.net Weather & Clock Widget
I uninstalled it (which took a long time) and Play Store installing/updating + sending & receiving texts is working fine all over again
I've used this weather widget for about 2 years and just a few days back it started causing issues. How strange is that?
