WhatsApp Web doesn't scan QR-Code... - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey there,
after I disconnected all my clients (maybe 3-4 months ago) I can't scan the QR-Code with WhatsApp.
I tried it with the desktop version (over windows store) and the web version (web.whatsapp.com).
This issue appears with my old Nougat ROM and with my yesterday installed Oreo ROM (both Resurrection Remix) and with two diffrent computers and networks. (phyiscal seperated)
I tried everything... change DPI settings, download an app for rotation control, reinstalling the app, reboot phone, installed an older version of whatsapp...
When i try to scan the code with a normal QR-Scanner from the store, it recognizing it immediately!
So it's a WhatsApp problem I think.
Does anyone have any idea, how i can solve this?
Update: I flashed the stock rom and this issue appears here too!
Update2: When I scan another QR-Code, not from web.whatsapp.com, the app tells me, that the code isn't from web.whatsapp.com, what is correct!
Does whatsapp maybe have blocked my number for this feature?

[Q] 2.3.3 Market and Youtube Problem

Dear,
Few months, I upgraded my X10 from 2.1 to 2.3 with root and everything is fine.
However, I reinstalled my system from the update service yesterday.
It seems no problem except that when I opened the market with WiFi, I can view contents but can not download it. The screen displayed "downloading" and no any further response. Also, the similar problem was observed in the Youtube app with Wifi connection. I can click the video but it was not played.
If I use 3G connection, everything will be fine.
I do not change any setting with my APs.
I searched some solutions and all of them do not help me.
For example, 1)clean the catch of those google apps in the settings->manage softwares or 2)open the port5228 in my APs.
I also tried to reinstalled the system with different version of fireware but can not solve this problem.
The only thing I can do is to downgrade to 2.1, in this case, the problems will be solved. After I upgrade 2.1 to 2.3 from update service or by using flashtool, the problems occurrs. It is really unhappy.....
Can anyone give me some more suggestions what can I do?

[Q] New Android location service with CyanogenMod?

Hi, has anyone tried the new location service at https://www.google.com/android/devicemanager yet?
My phone does not seem to respond to anything there. It cannot get a location, and I can not force it to ring. I also cannot use the web link to make the phone go to the Google Settings.
There is no message that it failed to ring my phone, or failed to send the message to go to Google Settings... Just, nothing happens.
I am able to push apps to my phone via the App Store from a browser, so I assume my Google account is set up for my phone correctly.
Does anyone know if this service is available in CyanogenMod 10.1? Do I need to enable it somewhere? Or do I need to install something for it to work?
I am using a Samsung i9001 with the latest ADC Team rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2315448
Also installed the latest gapps from that thread.
And this custom kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2315721

Well, I tried it again today, and now it worked. I could make my phone ring, and the notification was also sent successfully. In fact, I got the same notification about 10 times, probably a backlog of all the times I tried it before, but they didn't arrive earlier for some reason.
After a few tries, it even got my location correctly.
I have not changed anything on my phone, didn't install or uninstall anything, didn't change settings.
I think it was a problem in the Google service itself (perhaps it was overloaded because so many people tried the new feature).
So anyway, at least on my CyanogenMod 10.1 ADC Team rom, it works!

Havent tried going back to stock. Anyways it was working with different Custom Rom's for about 1 year or so...Yeah installed from google playstore
You can wait for a update to come to skype or try going back to stock, i don't have any idea what else could it be, you can also write a complaint to skype but i guess they won't care since you are using custom firmware.

No internet connection with specific apps

Hello xda-Developers, got a weird bug incoming (once again):
I am on NeatROM 5.9 (4.1.2 JellyBean) with Apolo Regular Kernel and just wanted to download AdFree via Dolphin Browser, but no matter what website I want to visit; it always tells me that I have got a connection error. After I downloaded AdFree via my PC and wanted to check the Host files, it got stuck there as it wouldn't do anything in the loading screen. Other apps like AdAway got the same error (not wanting to download host files), but apps like Google Play, Facebook, WhatsApp or others work fine. This problems no matter if I am connected with Wi-Fi or with Mobile Data.
My question is: How can I get back my internet connection?
EDIT: Found the problem, DroidWall was blocking these apps from connecting. Just activated then deactivated the firewall and everything worked out

Playstore/Youtube sometimes no connection ??

Hey there,
so i just got my SM-P605 with a custom rom from here to Android 7.1.
When it was stock stock everything worked fine but I wanted 7!
I flashed a 5.1.1 Stock Rom(needed the bootloader for twrp) wich I downloaded elswhere and Problems started, at the new setup I wasn't able to login to my google Account and skipped it, my connection to Wifi was stable and the browsers all worked fine except YT and Playstore etc. basicly everything with google.
Then I installed mentioned 7.1 rom and the same problems, I tried deleting installing Play Services, Play store, delete various Caches aswell in TWRP and Time settings set right.
The thing is I get acces to all perks from time to time wich is.... magic ? it is like 15min not possible then 2min everything works just fine ???
When I go to a different Wifi everything works fine 100% of the time no Problems at all.
But the mentioned Problem wifi has 3 other Tablets connected and 2 Smartphones with no Problem at all.
The not working Wifi is via the Win10 Hotspot from my PC and the stable one from my Dorm wich I dont wanna use cause it is very very unstable and slow.... 300-700kb/s compared to 12mb/s from the PC.
I raed alot about People not having a connection on Play store but they all had it permanently and not like mine
Anyone has a guess ?
