I know...it's pretty stupid. I use it all the time to check on my daughter's data use.

The app works fine over phone data. I do not have WiFi at home since I use my phone as my home internet.

Hmm that is interesting. Never knew so many people had problems. Now I might have a theory. Are you using a stock or custom ROM?

It only works with sense roms but I haven't been on sense for months.
They may have an issue with third server.

I'm using Thundershed 1.6 w Zoom Kernel. My Verizon works for me. I downloaded it through GooglePlay. Only thing is it doesn't auto log me in and it comes up with a missing info page when click but you simply click ok and it brings you to the login for the app and works from there. The data widget no long auto updates either. You have to click on it, log in to update it each time. Can use it on 3g/wifi/4g.
Maybe check out google play to see you have the latest version?

HELP, phone stolen, changed gmail password, now cant track

Is there any way to find the location of my phone? It was stolen and I just a dumb ass changed my gmail password right away so the person who stole it couldnt access my email.
Is there any way to track it now since google cant be synced with it??
I didnt install any tracking apps on my phone.......I am running 5.0 Inject Th3ry
Thanks guys I appreciate your help!
did you register for a sense account?
sense online does not work with the thunderbolt yet...
I thought lookout had a way to push the app to your phone to track it?
If you signed up for Verizon's TEC insurance via Asurion, I believe you get a phone finder service with that. Don't know how accurate it is though. www.phoneclaim.com Best of luck!

If all else fails. Call verizon, tell them it's lost. Call back every day to see if they placed any phone calls. If they did, call the numbers they called. Verizon can provide you with that info. Disadvantage of that, is they can use your phone to buy things or make expensive calls. But if you keep an eye on verizon's history, you should be able to control that if it gets out of hand.
One time my phone was stolen and I was able to find the guy that stole it because his dad was one of his recent calls. Turns out papa was very disappointed haha! I got my phone back and he got a beating.
Go to the android market on you pc and install Lookout Plan B on you lost phone. It will track it.

Umm, yes it does. If your running a ROM with it and your signed into HTC Sense. There is an option under the Location settings called Phone finder.
If it is checked you can go to www.htcsense.com, sign in and it will track your phone. I just tried before posting this to make sure.
That sucks but you hopefully had phone finder on

You can't change a Gmail password with a phone. You have to know the old password to change and it has to be done online. They probably factory reset the phone so u won't be able to track it anyway

Why don't you change your Google Account password back to what it was previously, then install Plan B from the market website. It will push to your phone so long as it's still trying to sync.

Because stock, it isn't. But, for example, BAMF 3.0 rc4.9 uses it. And it works with the site.

There's a hacked .apk here that will work on stock ROMs (might have to be rooted). You sign up with your device set as a Desire HD. I'm running it on my stock OTA MR2 rooted ROM.

Working fine for me. I'm also using the latest update (ViperROM Redline v2.5 RC2). Just checked it, no problems logging in and streaming video.
Maybe you should try turn Wi-Fi on and see if it works. If so, you probably have no signal over there.

As I stated in the original post, I have tried on WiFi, 3g, and 4G all with good signals. I get 1.5 mps WiFi and 4-6 mps on 4G
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
I think some phones are just sol with the app. At one point in the netflix app release line, I could use it. But somewhere along the updates it became unusable. That's why I just now periodically try it from time to time; hoping whatever that's causing my issue will be resolved.

Can't download or update apps from market on 4G

I am having a strange problem on the Google play market store, whenever I try to Download or update an app on 4G it gives me a message saying "waiting for network" and it just hangs there and does not start the Download process but when I switch back to 3G it starts the download right away which would be fine if my 3g wasn't so dam slow...Can anyone help? I'd really rather not download over 3g, I have tried clearing the cache for the play store app but the problem remains. I am able to do everything(browse the net, stream video, etc) on 4g except download apps from the store...wtf?

I am. I thought it was from flashing ZR3DX. It stopped working right after flashing it.
Hmm interesting, mine stopped working out of the blue as well...I have been using mean Rom 3.92 for over 4 months and it was working fine until recently. Have you found any work around? Could it be something wrong with the Google play store and not our phones?
Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
Not our Rom or our phone. Some one over at the HTC EVO shift forums have the same issue. I say its the update. So what we need to do is downgrade the play store and break the damn auto update..... Any thoughts on how? :c

I saw a Sprint Users.com forum where all sorts of Wimax phones are having the issue currently (OG Evo, EG4T, etc). Mine's been having problems since last night. I just disabled 4G and it immediately started downloading. Unfortunately 3G is horribly horribly slow in Raleigh, NC these days. Might as well be using the Edge network. Ugh.
researching varisous forums...multiple handset manufacturers, and multiple carriers. Google has been blaming Sprint, but I also see similar posts on Virgin Mobile and (at least one mention of...) Verizon.
Sprint
HTC Evo 4G
Non-Rooted
For me it works fine on 3g and wifi, but 4g is broken. "WAITING FOR NETWORK" is all it says. Been on the same Rom for the last 4 months. So Yea this is definitely not the phones.
update: I uninstalled all updates for the google play app and it downloaded perfectly. Now I honestly can't see how this isn't anything other than a bad update from google.
update: however this only works once per app since the market updates and then when the next app starts Bam! Waiting for network.

I started having the same issue today.
This issue is still happening to me and has been for over a week now with no solution in sight
Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
Guys try uninstalling the updates as one of you mentioned but also go into system/app and delete MarketUpdater.apk. Copy it to your sdcard somewhere first. And after deleting reboot.
I don't have 4g and never used it but if your looking to use a version of Play Store that won't update that's the way to do it.

You can post on the Sprint forum, either start your own thread or post in an existing one:
Start a new thread:

They say no one from Sprint actually reads or cares about their user forums.
But at very least it gets the message out that there is a real problem.

Yeap play store, search wifi tether by Muller Lemons and Buxton https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.googlecode.android.wifi.tether&hl=en
If you tried this and didn't work, it's because of the settings. Also, make sure with titanium backup you delete TetheringGuard.apk and mobile hotspot, they're both system apps. If you're not using titanium backup the system file for mobile hotspot is wifirouter.apk or something like that.
Download the app and before you ever even try it, get your settings configured. You press the menu button when you're at the apps home screen to get to settings. Set device profile to HTC Rezound CDMA/LTE
Change setup method to Netd NDC Master
Check to Enable Routing fix
Be sure to grant root access. Don't enable wifi encryption until after you've set it up and run some tests without encryption. That way you'll know where the problem lies if you have one, but it should be just fine. I may post another link to something I'm testing now.

So, wifi tether it shall be.

I mean it will just start dropping 4g signal every ~15 seconds for no reason. Some users have the issue, some don't. But once it starts, it never stops.

If you dont pay for tethering I think verizon will catch you because according to a few sources there are safeguards they have like packet sniffing and id checks. Correct me if im wrong.

Weird text message.

Anyone know what this is? I started getting these on the sense 5 rom and now I'm stock and got it again. Happened when a friend tried to send a pic. They had to send it twice for it to work.
Tried Google and got nothing.

It only started happening after I ran AOSP and Sense 5 based roms recently. Got it on sense 5 and restored and started getting it on stock as well. I tried googling the issue and got nothing. Not sure verizons goons are gonna be able to do anything.
Verizon support is not the best. Most don't even know what they are talking about. When I called once to get my data working again on my continuum the guy who I got had the same phone and he said he had the same problem but his data was just turned off and he didn't even know...
