google play store and internet speed fix(2 in one)

google play store and internet speed fix(2 in one) - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

hi there:
i know sometimes googleplay store won't download or slow download or connection timeout(retry connect).
or sometimes you see your download speed too slow.
try my method i wish it will fix your problems:
first you should be rooted:
for google play fix ...you will need es file explorer(search in google if you don't have it).
open es file explorer >>press on menu key(option key in your phone)>>click on tools>>root explorer>>
mount r/w>>make (/) and /system >>>r/w.
then go to system directory>etc folder>there is file called hosts>>delete this file.(using es file explorer).
then on es file explorer >press on menu key(option key in your phone)>>click on tools>>root explorer>>
mount r/w>>make (/) and /system >>>r/o.(to protect system and prevent malware to enter system).
by this you will fix google play problem.
for internet speed fixyou don't need root):
from play store download and install :wifi settings (dns,ip,gateway).
then open it click on current dns and select open dns home .
after that click applay.
you are done.
i make this and worked for me(on galaxy s4 verizon on 4.4.2).

Nice solution
I don't know how it fixed play store download issue but it did and previously I tried every thing to get rid of it but in vein. I was stuck for weeks thanks a lot man.

(SOLVED )GPS permission fix with Root Explorer

I have a tablet that does not have GPS and it causing me not to be able to download certain apps ( facebook, evernote etc.. ) i know its due to the developer GPS manifest or at least I think I do, I have seen a thread on here about using script to add permission of gps to the tablet so the market will let me have these apps due to their lovely filters, can someone help me with a step by step edit using script manager, I think I have found the right area system/etc/permissions/tablet xml etc... but im just still kinda new at this, I have sideloaded some apps to get around this but there are many apps i use that i cant find and would like to get this script changed, please help
Here is how to fix this issue
A. Backup /system/etc/permissions (just take a copy with ES file explorer or root explorer.recommended just in case)
B. copy the xmlfiles files into /system/etc/permissions (android.hardware.location.gps.xml, android.hardware.location.xml, com.android.location.provider.xml, tablet_core_hardware.xml) agree to over write all of them
C. Make sure the file permission are rw-r-r (with ES file explorer, long tap then change properties on each file..to help you out all files in that directory need to be rw-r-r)
D. Go to settings->apps->all and tap Google Play Store
E. Click on Clear data
F. REBOOT tablet
market still not working
Go to settings->apps->all Go to “Google Play Store” again
‘Clear Cache’ if it lets you then ‘Force Stop’ — DO NOT Clear data
back and Go to “Google Services Framework”
‘Clear data’ then ‘Force Stop’
REBOOT your machine.
Then after reboot market is still not working.. then go into..
settings->apps->all google play store again open it but this time clear data if it lets you..
thats it exit open market up, login and you should now have full market access
Get the xml files from this link http://www.mediafire...ft28i70alfchc0m

Files ..Dave..you can get the files here: android. googlesource. com/platform/frameworks/native/+/master/data/etc - i put a space in the link as I dont have enough permissions to post external links yet

[Fixed] Play store No connection

with root explorer or another file manager that manage root go to etc/ (there is a file called Hosts (monte r/o ) delet it and Voila

[L9 II] SOLVED No apps can access the sdcard, not even the stock LG ones or mtp

Today i tried clearing the spotify cache and somehow it managed to break my sdcard. I tried deleting the cache folder myself but i couldnt do so. After rebooting i cant modify ANY sdcard file or folder. Not even via MTP. The camera app doesnt save the pictures, the file manager says failed. Please don't link me the SDFix. I don't want it. It worked just fine even without it so i don't understand where is the problem? The catlog is below. Honestly this happened before when i tried to use an app like foldermount.
Edit: Something made the external_SD read-only instead of r/w . The fix is relatively easy if you have root (well i don't think you can get into this situation without root):
Just download ES File Explorer then drag the menu from left and tap on root explorer (not the on/off button) and then Mount r/w and tap on the RW dot next to /mnt/media_rw/external_SD and tap OK

Yes I got all intalled ok. I did everything as you said.
I can't figure out what's wrong.

Does UCBrowser open and work?

"Google play services has stopped to work" after this process. I can´t get uc browser or play store working (installing as user apps as shown at step 3) If I move it to priv-app, UC browser works, but playstore´s still crashing. I don´t understand the dummy apks and its purpose...
If I install the dummy and before the user app UC browser, it doesn´t work. It needs to be pushed on priv-app to get networking

Yes I guess it needs to be done first! If you use /system/app mover to move playStore to system then after it reboots install the newer PlayStore apk as an user with ES file explorer then delete the play store apk on the system/priv-app folder and add the older dummy apk again and it should work! I think it needs to be installed to system for real first then update it then move the older dummy apk to /system folder after you've updated it, the point of the dummy apk is to save space! if you want you could just leave the real apk in the System/folder

I don´t understand the steps. If I install something outside from priv-app, it won´t work on network, that´s a fact. I think google play services must be in priv-app also with play store and other google apps, but I don´t have space enought on /system partition (the play store crashes saying google play services has stopped, and I cannot install play services as user app because it says that already exists). Why it already exists? Must I delete the default Android wear Play services and replace with this new package? And what´s the installation order?
1- Install the dummy as user app and move it to /system with permissions, etc.
2- Reboot and install the real google play apk as user app
3- Reinstall the dummy on /system again (mantaining the real Gplay as user app and getting free space on /system)
Is this?
I only got UC browser working while being on priv-app, but nothing with play store... Really I´m trying to get it working

Yes any apps in the system folders get networking! And if you update that app it moves it to /data and still works as long as an dummy apk is in system folder. And yes I might have use the adb -r command to install play services or threw ES file explorer as an update? I'm not to sure

Then, how I update an app for save space on /system? And how I install new play services without corrupting anything?
And what´s adb -r command for?
Sorry for all of that questions, but I´m interested in learning And thanks for all!

Have you tried to install play services apk with ES file explorer or threw adb? Android wear has play services installed already so it's just an update! It's called prebuiltGmsCoreForClockworkWearable.apk on my watch and is in the priv-app folder!
you have to install the app or apps to the /system/priv-app or /system/app folder first - you can use the app /system/app mover or adb or terminal or file manager. then you need to use ES File explorer and install an newer version of the same app and it will be updated and re-installed to the /Data partition where there is more space, it does not remove the apk from the /system folders but it's not used only checked for and wastes space so that's why the dummy apk is used. If you don't want to install other apps to system then just install PlayStore or UCBrowser and leave it in system but there isn't much space 30+mb.
adb install -r package.name.apk reinstalls the app without replacing the data like an update.

Ahh I found what was going on I forgot an apk GoogleAccountManager.apk it don't need to be in the system folder but if you reset the watch it will get deleted too unless it's in the system folder!

Can you upload it please? I'll try it

@iAppleDev : Hello, is there a way to store google contacts directly on the watch please ?

Hi, may I ask, what is the purpose of doing this? Is it for times when Android Wear becomes unstable?

I have put the apps to /system/priv-app. I chmod-ed them to 644. But i am not able to change user/group.
when in sdcard/Downloads the files are shown as root:sdcard_r. chown system:system filename result in no error, but ls -al still delivers root:sdcard_r
after putting the files in system/priv-app i am shown to have no rights to change user/group (no rights to write on system?). I dont know how to get these rights. Standard linux code doesnt work, necessary commands not integrated in wear?
In the file manager of twrp i dont find any option to change user/group. ES File Explorer is installed, but activation of root explorer returns an error. And yes, the device IS rooted
Edit:
When in /system/priv-app by adb shell su the files are shown root/root as user/group.
So the whole procedure results in:
I can start ES File Explorer (only through native GUI, not wear mini launcher, dont know why) - but i am not able to install an apk by it. Every try results in no app/no gesture. Now i am stuck...
Edit:
Ok, i made it by TWRP/Terminal. baaaaad work with that smaaaall keyboard and big fingers...
but it doesnt look as if that was the big point. File Explorer still cant get root explorer and i still cant install apps...

Do you have root for this? If so how have you granted access if superuser doesnt work yet? Also how do you change the groups? And do the apks need to be in a folder in system/priv-app like they are in our phones? I moved all the apks but none of them installed I have TWRP but im still trying ti work out my root on Sony Smartwatch 3

play store no connection, yes ik

So recently I rooted my phone and after about a day the play store and basically all google related apps started to give the connection error. Does this on wifi and 3G connection.
I have used numerous file explorers, root explorer, ES and FX explorers. Everytime I try to edit the hosts file it either says failed or that it is mounted as r/o instead of r/w. When I try to mount it as r/w it says permission denied. Same goes for deleting the hosts file, it just fails.
I dont know what to do beyond this point, its just really frustrating to not be able to use youtube/playstore etc.
Any and all help is appreciated.
