For some reason today my Whatapp messenger has stopped working on 3G, it wont send or receive messages. (It was working fine before)
It is still working fine over Wi-Fi though.
I haven't changed anything today, or received any update.
Has anyone else experienced this problem today? I'm in the UK on the 3 network.
Any ideas what could be causing it?
Everything else still works fine.

Yes same here on 3. Not working over 3G. Only on wifi.

That's called block by your provider.
You can easily test it by using a vpn and checking if it works then.

Yes it was working before yesterday. Yesterday it stopped working sometime in the afternoon, starting working again and then stopped working again in the evening.

Hi, sorry if this sounds stupid, but what does test it by using a vpn mean, and how do I do that?
John
I have just reinstalled it again this morning and it is working again, strange.
Thanks for your help though, I would still like to know what the vpn thing is for future reference.

If your having problems with the youtube app or having trouble streaming music from a 3rd party app, go to post 14 below. Motcher41 found a post that migh help.
So what does this change? From what I saw online it's to check for OTA updates?
I tried watching some youtube videos on 3G from my house and it actually played after typing it in... I'll have to see if it works in the other places where it usually chokes.

Sprint did not know why the app was not working so I called HTC. The person I talked to at HTC said to do this.

It's driving me nuts ..must be a YouTube problem bc its not a network problem for me
Talked to HTC again about youtube and flash.
Ok after a total of 9 phonecalls to HTC and Sprint trying to get a straight answer about why the youtube app and orb app stopped working, someone at HTC said that abobe has pulled support for flash lite from mobile devices. If you took the last ota update, any app that uses flash will not work now over sprints network.
Still works in the browser over sprints network but not near as good as using the app and for what ever reason, the apps work fine over wi-fi.
Question. Isn't the app still using Flash Lite even over wi-fi? Why does it work over wi-fi and not sprint?

I entered it into the dialer and this time it did not work. It did work while I was on the phone with HTC the first time I used it. I could not use youtube before I entered it and then tried youtube after I entered it and was able to use the youtube app.
I just tried the youtube app over wi-fi and it worked, turned off wi-fi got back on sprint and connection to server failed shows up in the screen when I try youtube.
Guess I should have waited to post what I thought was a fix but it did work when I first tried it so I shared it.
I'm getting a "Connection to sever lost Touch to retry" error.

Finally, after a month of this nonsense my youtube will work over 3g. What a ****ing joke that Sprint goofed this up and isnt even aware of what they've done.
Hi Guys,
I am using Motorola Photon 4g (Sprint) in india with Airtel GSM. Im getting network... calls messages all working good.
However data/internet is not working. I have made the manual setting on APN. But still not working. Please help me with this.

Make sure your network data is turned on and data usage settings are correct. As long as your apn's are correct it will work.

I have had this on 2 Note3s. SPRINT. Anytime when turning on 4G LTE or switching from wife to LTE. I get this it also has a constant notification. I have replaced phone. Updated prl.profile.firmware. factory reset. Nothing. Sprint says they are unaware as usual. Is anyone else having this issue. Pic related..

My best guess, is what @w7excursion said. Your sim card has not been programmed for your account. Your best bet, would be to take it to Sprint store, that is also a repair facility. You may have to go to more than one, until you find someone competent enough to handle it.

And yea I got it from best buy and had them replace my first one and then I called sprint like a month ago and they stated they had no idea. But if you literally Google those words sprint and note 3 you will see other people are having issues with it. I think sprint is having problems having to depend on a similar card for lte.

You're not the only one with useless data speeds. I'm happy on days when LTE speeds reach 1Mbps, here in the Houston area.
Cannot get my S4 to connect to 4G. I have MDK rooted/unlocked running Carbon Rom, tried Sonic Rom and GPE 4.4.3, used Odin back to stock unrooted and still no 4G LTE.
Whats happening: on stock I had 4G at first boot-up but then it cannot connect anymore. When on Carbon if I change APN back to LTE Verizon standard it connects to LTE for a moment but kicks back to diff APN and 3G only. Same on any AOSP or GPE rom.
Any ideas? hardware issue?

Well could be your Sim card possibly since you had that issue on stock MDK
I know some aosp Roms have been getting updates to their APNs and I've ran into this same issue myself.
Currently I'm on this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2760650
And my data is perfect. The APNs are not accessible however. But still no issues for me.

I've tried a couple roms. It seems the issue is apn won't stock. I change it and sometimes get 4g for a moment then it resets and no 4g and if I delete all apn but one it still won't stick to that one.

And you used a full wipe MDK Odin file? You should be able to at least get it back on stock I'd think. And if not that point to your Sim most likely or who knows... Hardware issue maybe.
Sims are free at any corporate Verizon store and something like $15 at retail ones. May want to at least try that.

Have you tried the app Automatic system settings? You can select LTE only mode and force it into LTE. Ever since Kit Kat, I've had 4g far less than before. It constantly switches out to 3g when not in use for a while. Happens mostly inside buildings.

No they don't care. Just if you make you feel better throw MDK back on there and freeze SDM but I've been in there for Sims running Liquid Smooth. Nothing they can do. Especially just for a Sim. That's a separate issue.

Sent from my Nexus 9 using Tapatalk
I find restarting the phone then trying again usually gets it to work. I am not sure the reason but after checking "Activate WiFi Hotspot" in FoxFi the prompt to enable hotspot in settings states you have 30 seconds to do which leads me to believe any subsequent attempt to enable hotspot will fail until the phone is restarted. Hope it work for you also!
