Hello,
i have a long time problem with my Google account. It simply dont sync (stores/restores) my Wi-Fi passwords.
when i am loged on an android device with my account, sync is turned on. Then I connect to a new wi-fi networks with password protection, then after a week or two (and other periods like three months and so) i make full wipe, flash another rom, sign in to my google account and BAM no stored wi-fi networks (like my parents, my work etc....) I have to type the passwords again. And this is long term issue (from Nexus S in 2011, trough various devices, various tablets until now).
I tried to copy the wpa_supplicant.conf file to other devices or OS versons, but even when i correct the permissions, the wifi dont turn on.
I have a particular solution. I grab always the wpa_cupplicant.conf from my latest device and make a backu pof this file. Then when I am on new ROM and i need to enter the password i copy it from the wpa_supplicant.conf file.
Is there any option how to manage stored wifi passwords trough my google account on my PC or to reset the ability to store the wifi passwords.

I just flash new rom and it happen at the first start. Can't sign in Google Account, so I can't sync my contact and use market, etc. I search for many solutions, such as, hard reset, clear cahce in Application setting, reflash rom, roll back to old rom, and so on. It still can't connect!!!!

I'm now in Beijing, China. (China Mobile) but, I can sync with this before. I'm here 1 year already. It just happen to unable to sync 2 days ago. I'm sure I have wifi connection, because I can use browser to log in to gmail. However, can't establish connection between phone and google account. Current APN setting is set to China Mobile!! Someone here said it was a problem of google sevice, so everyone now can't resync if reset phone. Is it true?
I'm having the same problems in Beijing as well. I wasn't able to log into my account. Every other time I flash a rom its been problem free, but it's been 2 days now. Same message, 'can't establish a reliable days connection to the google servers'
I can also surf and login through my carrier and WiFi, but no login.
I'm also in China (not Beijing; I'm in Dalian) and using China Mobile. I reinstalled the firmware this morning and I also cannot connect to Google's servers. Everything works fine using Wifi, and I've tried clearing the cache etc.
Looks like a Google issue?
i`m in iran and i have same problem my wifi and apn work because i can use browser and my google account is working because i use it in my pc.but my ppc with android can not connect i used it befor but now i can`t
I have recently purchased an LG Vortex (from what I read is Verizon Wireless's Optimus One) that comes with the Android 2.2 operating system installed. I have looked into rooting my phone with z4root and have successfully temporarily rooted my phone. I would rather keep my phone unrooted, but if it is absolutely necessary I will root it permanently with z4root.
My question is this: How can I connect to my company wifi and use apps that require wifi?
I can successfully connect to my corporate wifi through the 802.1x EAP protocol. The problem comes when trying to access any of the apps that require internet (I am forcing Verizon's data plan not to be used--using wifi only due to 150MB limit on my data to save $$ per month). None of my apps seem to work--internet browser, Market, Gmail, Google Calendar, etc...
On my company pc I know that within internet explorer the box is checked that says "Use automatic configuration script" and gives an "Address" that is in the format of "..../proxy.pac" It looks like my work uses a proxy for things to connect to the internet. I have no such place to put this information in my LG Vortex. I downloaded an app that seemed promising called "Proxy Settings" which will allow me to enter in the following Hostname and Port. When I tried to enter the "..../proxy.pac" as the hostname it gave me an error stating "The hostname you typed is not valid."
Is there an app or something that will allow me to use my apps when connecting to my corporate wifi? Is it a proxy setting thing or a VPN thing? I am not sure. I am open to any and every idea so that I can use my phone's online features while connected to my company's wifi.
FYI - I have friends that have iPod touches and they are able to connect to the internet with some apps internet browsing and downloading apps, but they have a similar issue of not being able to use all of their apps as well. I believe they were able to put the "..../proxy.pac" address in their devices somewhere.
Thanks!
I am a new member on this forum but I decided to reply because I have a question and a possible solution for you:
-solution:try to download the *.pac file.You will see that it is probably a script that defines your actual proxy's ip.So you could try and figure out which is your actual proxy's ip.Then use this ip for the proxy-app. (However I am afraid that only browser will connect properly,not every app)
-and now the question:how did you manage to connect to the network?I have trouble connecting because the wifi settings menu doesn't seem to help.
I try to connect to a 802.1x EAP network and I have installed the required certificates but I don't know what to fill to username,password fiels.

I'm trying to set up a new Google account on my Hero to replace the one I've been using, but every time I try to add one it says "Error: Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server." I've been trying it for the past 2 days and it never works. I've tried it over 3G (which works fine when I try to navigate to other websites in the browser), as well as WiFi (which is also working), but it keeps saying it can't connect and that my phone is not "provisioned for data services." Does anyone know what's going on?
Hi,
i setup my Google account to sync my personal data which includes Wifi passwords. So I went to a friends router and entered the password into my smartphone and connected to the Wifi successfully. While in the network I synced my smartphones Google account. Then I enabled Wifi hotspot on my smartphone in order to sync my N7 Google account to receive the newly synced password. But sadly after syncing I couldn't connect to the Wifi because the password was not synced.
What did I do wrong?
Can anyone help?
After a hard-long internet search I've discovered that there's an alternative way in which you can eventually recover the information from google's own servers since that's where your device (or past devices) backups/backed up your data. The following link is a guide to this option.

As a reminder, you're the only one responsible for any possible damages involved when "tinkering" with your phone. Adb and root are necessary, so please refrain yourself from continuing if you don't even know these words!
Cheers
On the most of the android phones by default, informing the user all the saved WiFi password it will be sync with your google account. In case of change the phone or reset the phone, user are able retrieve them by input the g-mail user and password and bring back the saved WiFi network on the android device.
Most of the time this feature, it is work fine but not always.
It happen for me recently! I just saw all my saved network has been disappear, I try all possible option (safe-mode/ set account on a new phone/ restore my phone/ contact google support 2 times)
Even the google support can't figure it out how it been erased
Google final answer it was "it might was some technical issue while synchronizing with the cloud"
I try to put some of the WiFi pass again, but even after it there is no options on the android or google dashboard to see the new WiFi pass has been sync or not.
Basically the information about WiFi password it has been collected from user but there is not any report to the end user about it!
The password is should reachable again same as the saved password in the google chrome or the history of location/search in all other services...
but
1- The SSID/pass is not retrievable from google account.
2- In Google dashboard is not show at least like names of the saved network.
3- Google is not even tell the user number of the saved WiFi network.
It should be a way to monitor this sync process and make sure it's working in proper way!
is there any way to monitor this sync process?
