play store problem - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tried to use a VPN to access the japanese play store and got a "retry connection". I have fixed this problem many times with the info in these forums but this time it wont work. Whenever I try to sign in it will give me a different window than what I usually sign in with. After I try to sign in I will get a message saying there is a connection error with the store.
I will have a pic up later. When I get to a computer

Google Play error

Has anyone else had this problem? When I try to download apps from play Store I keep getting an error message unable to download (927).
Usually can end up downloading but it takes 2 or 3 times getting this message before it will download.
I have tried a number of different roms and get this with all of them, even went back to stock rom and still got the error message.
Cheers
Packet loss due to ISP or your router doesn't like your phone, try another wifi source/ISP.
Its a server side issue. If you're on wifi, try turning it off then turning it on again, allowing the phone to reconnect. If not, try using mobile data.
I had thought a similar thing but it has happened a couple of times when not using wifi only mobile data.

[Q] Trouble with the market and google account

Yesterday, i used my nook (rooted, stock rom 1.4.3) normally. When updated an app on market, i couldn't open it because of force close error. After that, i tried to open play store but it said "no connection" although wifi was ok. Then i tried to reset to stock rom and rooted again, but the icon "market" didn't appear on desktop (i tried 2 times with the same result. I added google account but it appeared this notification "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server.This could be a temporary problem or your SIM card may not be provisioned for data services. If it continues, call Customer Care." And now my nook can't install non-market apps although it was rooted
So what should i do now to solve this issue

[Q] Google play store not connecting! tried everything...

I have a rooted galaxy s3 i747. Originally with AT&T but unlocked and switched to T-mobile.
Two months ago google play store/any google app stopped working. I couldn't sign into anything. Factory reset it, Still didn't sign in. I recently tried to fix it buy going into etc/hosts and adding the "#" in front of the I.P address. That worked, :good: I could sign into my google accounts.
But now Google play store wont connect. I know for sure my wi-fi is working. Browsing internet works perfectly without errors. It just keeps saying connection timed out, Retry.
I already checked my time/region. Its on automatic, everything correct.
I deleted the hosts file.. nothing. cleared cache, forced stopped, rebooted again and again. disable/enable.
I didn't save a copy of the hosts file though... Not sure if that's a problem or not. I don't know how to go about making another one.
I'm not the brightest when it comes to things like this.
please help.

[Q] Everything internet stopped working except WhatsApp

So, I have an unrooted i9100 with 4.1.2 Android version.
Before last night, everything was working fine on my mobile. The thing was I wanted to download youtube videos on phone directly and I installed an app for it. When I tried downloading via it, it stopped around 50%. I tried resuming the download and even restarting it but somehow (and I think each one of us, has seen it some time or the other), a download was stuck in notification bar with no progress. When it kept happening for a long time, I went to its App Info (download manager) and i think I forced stop and disabled it as well (don't remember what I did first. But I had to do the other since, the download thing didn't disappear from notification bar after the first move). After that, I noticed that my play store kept giving that "no connection - retry" thing and dolphin browser "web page unavailable, is your connection dry". But my wifi was working properly since I could easily connect to my laptop and work on it. The more ridiculous fact was that WhatsApp worked.
So, I kept looking for the solution online and there didn't appear to be anything similar to my problem. I did stumble upon a Cyanogenmod website and just found some words like never disable download manager because if you do, you might have to root again or something similar to that. When I saw that, I thought I would have to factory rest. So, I did backup of my data and reset it. The thing is the problem still exists. Frustrating thing is that for one, I can't surf internet on browser, nor download my apps I had previously (especially the paid license ones which don't exist in apk) and update them.
So, I don't really know what can be done in this situation. Do I have to root my phone? I don't really want to, because my past experience with them had not been good while installing new custom roms. But is it unavoidable at this stage?
Edit: I also remembered that I tried using mobile data to open play store. My connection was too slow to open the page, but the "no connection" was not being displayed in the home page so it might have been trying to load.

Won't connect to page for download

First off, I have a new, cheap phone, an Alcatel One Touch, Pixie Glitz I believe, from Tracfone. I have been trying for many days to try and just get the phone to connect to the website for the download. I have looked through this site, used the search and nothing comes up that seems to be the problem I am having.
Previously, I had been successful in connecting to the site through the phone and starting the download, but then it wouldn't open or said there was no download there. Now It keeps giving me this message of "Connection timed out, can't connect". I can connect to any other page just fine so I know my internet is working fine. There's something that seems to be blocking the phone from connecting to this site and then what can I do for when I finally get it to connect, how it seems to not be able to "read" the download.
I found this place from a video on YourTube, so I followed all the instructions for preparing the phone to root it. It is set on the developer's mode and set to accept all third party downloads. If anyone can help and give me some support, I would appreciate it.
