I have the Google Finance app on my Defy+. In the last few days I noticed that the ticker had stopped updating. Tapping on the widget gets me an incomplete share price page and the title line says "Loading" continuously - it never finishes loading
I tried uninstalling Google Finance and re-installing it from Play. The result of that was that I couldn't add a share to the ticker list at all
Fortunately I had a Ti backup of the app so I restored that, with its data, and I now have the share back in the ticker - but it's still not updating. I've tried adding a different share to the ticker and it just sits there with the sync icon in the notification area, achieving nothing.
It's as if Google Finance can't talk to Google any more. All my other network apps, including eg Google Maps, work fine.
Anyone got any ideas?
I have the same problem, but my prob only started midday today
I also have the same problem. No idea what to do.

Its like Finance has been dying a slow death. I haven't been able to get my widget to auto update at all for months on multiple phones. Now this. I really wish there was another compact widget that would simply give me the current dow. Time to move on. Anyone have any suggestions?
The app called "stocks" uses your google finance portfolios and seems to work still (indicating a server-side problem for google). I don't like it as much as Finance, but at least it works. Doesn't come with a widget, though
Thanks but I really need a home screen widget

I think it says something that we are the only three people across the world making noise after Finance goes non-functional for about 3 days now.
I thought it was surprising that no one complained when the widget quit auto updating months ago. Here it goes completely dead and hardly a word.
If anyone is interested, I tried most of the widgets and this one is the only one that seemed to work and auto updated in as little as 1 min increments per the settings.

I have the same problem
For the past few days It didn't update any stock quotes. I deleted data and uninstalled then reinstalled and now it doesn't even update my portfolio from Google Finance server and can't add new stocks or do nothing. It is completely non-functional now.
I'm also having the exact same problem on HTC Evo 3D.
- App wasn't syncing
- Deleted data and lost my portfolio
- Reinstalled and still not working
- Sync icon stays in the left hand corner but it does not update
The portfolio is still available on the full/mobile websites.
Same problem here with my motor RAZR Maxx. Widget stopped updating so I uninstalled and reinstalled. Now I can't get it to sync with my saved stocks.
Hmmm... yesterday I needed to rebuild my Galaxy S2 phone (had tried a different OS and had problems restoring the original). I had deleted google finance 2 days ago.
Today I reinstalled Finance, just to see.... and it's working fine! Got my portfolio reloaded and replicates prices nice & fast!
Soooo either Google Finance just started working again for everyone, or the solution to the problems reported here is some sort of delete..wipe..reinstall cycle
Good luck ladies & gents.

Apparently no reinstall needed. Wonder if by some miracle auto update started working also. We'll see when the market opens.
I sent an email to the support email address in the app and now it's working. Maybe they do read those emails.
Yup, working for me again now. Must have been a Google problem. (I did e-mail them about it twice but didn't hear anything back.)
Now all I have to do is find the RBS stock mnemonic which gives me the real current price of RBS ordinary shares. I know they're not great but 7.45p sure ain't right...
Google's Problem
I second ejstubb's assessment. I initially uninstalled / reinstalled with no resolution. As of last night, it seems to be working fine, so i can only assume it was a problem on Google's end.
Does anyone except me care about the fact that the stock monitor widget has quit auto updating months ago? I guess no one uses it?

I just checked the settings and mine was set to 4 hours. Maybe that is why I thought it wasn't auto updating. I just set it to 30 minutes.

Yes it did. I wish it would update in shorter increments, but this is better than before.

What is your phone and rom?
Hello.
I have bought a JXD P1000 by eBay.
It works perfectly, but I can't associate my gmail account and no I have not access to the official google play.
I have read that I can solve it changing some parameters in ES Explorer (r-r-r), but I can do it ONLY if my device is root.
Is there any way to root it? does anyone have this device?
Thanks for any help.
I just purchased the jxd p1000 too. If i have this problem too i would like to know as well.

Hey how is the device? How is the wifi speeds? I had a lesser known brand that over all worked pretty good but the wifi speeds were horrible. Download speeds capped at around .25 mbps! Not even close to 1mbps. Uploads were about double that. I hope its not the same with this one. Do you use a sim card on it?

I'm looking for buying this tablet.
Could you tell me how long the battery last? Is it a 3000 mAh battery ?
Thanks
stay away until further notice
I have the same issues apparently it is an issue with google's not being allowed in china. I have to say that although this device choice was done with great evaluation after seeing all the specification i quite fell in love with the item. so i called the sellers including pandawill, umitablets and another web seller which escape me at the time of this writings. And being from the US i Specifically asked would google would be implemented and i was told google play was already pre-configured and that is where i was sold and also where i was suckered. so let me tell you having bought the bloody thing i sought help first with the nearby stores and as soon as i mentionned the device and where it was purchased .... I got sorry but you know it's the chinese so i decided let me go to the nearest chinese community and i specifically said chinese simplified Han to be exact and you wouldn't believe what came out of their mouth .... CHINESE Sooorrryy ... I ssmmmhhh and said about finding my own solutions after all how hard it would be ... wowowowo little did I know when they say google play store they are misleading you their version of google play is the old android market ... so not being a quitter i decided research would help me get to the bottom of this so i webly disected the phone the IC manufacturer Mediatek .... No SuPPort the devices on google listed devices that being read the closest match to my device are phone lenovo P700 and A2105, A2107 and A2109 and off all these am not sure cause LEnovo won't support it as well so one look at google also states that they do not support it so the only way i see me get it around it is by changing the internal files so that the phone or google thinks that i'm one of the approved listed device funnily enough i can get apps off amazon and it recognizes it as Android JXD P1000 and Yantex as well but you need to stop speaking chinese and go into russian. Btw another issue you will have is getting the drivers that would allow you to work with your PC. I did find it but now I am scared to root cause i don't know how to do it and afraid to have a 200 dollar brick. So lesson learned i give myself less than 3 months to get it straight otherwise i will leave with its shortcomings but i will definitely champion never EVER EVER buy chinese devices cause #1 misleading #2 support non-existing #3 not worth its weight especially when their own countrymen is telling me sorry its chinese ... that is when i totally felt like an idiot ... so unless you hear me fix that issue please stay away from that device cause until they fix my issues i will warn everyone to stay far from it. I will eventually place all our correspondance on a website sometime real soon .... ttyl if you need to interact it i can get you the drivers for your pc what the hell we are in the same boat ... but anything else still looking ... it's not right goddamn misleading ....

Do not worry, we have a solution!!
Finally I entered the JXD website and I downloaded the latest firmware for the device.
Inside the file are the instructions to update the tablet and drivers to connect to the pc, but I did not work for me these drivers, so I had to look for other drivers on the Internet (I have no permissions to paste links, I have very few messages in this forum)
I hope this can help you. At least my JXD P1000 is already running at 100% with all Google applications.
Good luck!!

I just followed the steps in the downloaded file (word document). It's very simple. Sure is better explained that if I try to explain, because my English is not good and it is possible that I confuse someone.
Only one possible problem ... If your pc does not detect the tablet with the drivers provided by JXD, then as I said, you have to look on the internet: Simply search on google "mt65xx android phone drivers"

how to install the play store on my tablet or switch to root mode, Please
I also have bought a JXD P1000 in Vietnam. It looks working almost perferctly except GPS.
Problem I had in using GPS is, the satellites are caught but the present location won't be fixed forever.
So google map doesn't show exactly where I am, and it's useless at this moment.
I found similar problems in tablets using MTK6877(?) posted in other bbs. MTK6877 is said to be a brother cpu to this MTK8377.
The solution introduced in that BBS was to put a file named GPS.prop(?) into under /system folder. But it needs root.
So, what I want to say is, are there anybody facing a similar GPS problem?
Or other help or suggestions are appreciated.

I don't have software to test the GPS
i have only firmware( w w w .jxd.hk/download.asp?id=1168&selectclassid=020001) but I don't know what to do
I just recieved mine and so far i like it. My gps wasnt working but i got it to work. My only problem right now is the wifi. Anybody having problems with the wifi with the tablet is in sleep mode. I changed the setting to always stay on but it keep breaking. The symbol is on but no internet connection is going through until i turn off wifi and turn it back on. So far i notice it when i leave it alone for a while, not instantly. I havent done the update yet and hopefully that fixes this problem but if it doesn't, anybody has any ideas. Im also trying a wifi lock app but doesnt seem to be working.

As for me, I didn't realize that wifi problem with JXD. It might be because of using power saving apps.
And how did you get the gps to work?

Well i havent downloaded any power saving apps. Well now the gps is spotty. It was working fine for a while but suddenly stopped. I used the gps status and tools app (i think thats how it is called). Also messed with the native gps settings. The wifi problem im having also happens when im using it as well. So basically at any moment it can happen. Very annoying.

GPS never worked i still can't access the up grades
I have had for 2 months no GPS can't get to upgrade now cause i get this message
BROM Errors : S_COM_PORT_OPEN_FAIL (1013)
[COM] Failed to open COM 3
[HINT]:
Possible reason:1. If you use UART1 to download DA, please make sure that you have selected the correct UART1 COM port first!2. USB driver is abnormal, please restore them, and then try again.
wifi is non-issue only problem in general the tech support are the following
UMITABLETS: once sold they don't care
MEDIATEK: they are not the reseller THEY DON"T CARE LOLOLOOLOO
JXD: sent an email while i was just trying to get the right driver for mediatek welll they never answered me so it adds up as THEY DON"T CARE
i don't know if anyone is getting the jist they sold ir i feel like a sucker and THEY DON"T CARE
so my advice and i will blog it especially sine my patience is running thin i will blog about it and advise people not to buy from or their product

I got the upgrade done yesterday. What i did is first connect the tablet to the computer, for the first time, and have it automatically install the drivers, once successful, i chose to install the ones provided in the upgrade file in the jxd website. I got an error saying it wasnt installed proerly on one of them but when i reconnected the tab it connected fine. So i decided to go on with the upgrade process from the word doc in the zip file. Pretty simple like the other person said on this thread, though i did try like 2-3 times before it began. Once it started was smooth sailing. The upgrade made the tab better. Gapps work fine, except i cant install google shopper for some reason. Everything else is pretty stock android with all the google services working. I have yet to see if the upgrade restores gps, so when i do test it out pretty well they ill give my results.
Update on my wifi problem: it seems it is only happening on my portable hotspot only. While on my home wifi it is solid good. When im out and about, it keeps disconnecting from my personal hotspot. Any ideas why that would be?

JXD P1000 - Purchased from Pandawill.com
Hello!
I am having same issues with Google Play, can't sync with or install Gmail. I was able to load the .apk file for Google Play but it fails to launch. Google maps and navigation will not work, and device is unable to determine my location. I was able to find .apk files on the net for Mozilla and Facebook and have those working, but I really need access to Google Play Store.
I was able to download the PC drivers from the JXD website, and now my Windows 7 PC will detect the device.
I tried to update the firmware from the JXD site but says that one of the files is not compatible.
Customer service at Pandawill is unable to resolve the situation and will not authorize a refund.
Is there a way to root this device or install any Google apps?
Mant thanks!

I cant say why it is not happening right but for you but i can briefly say what i did. I started by downloading the upgrade from the website. I then connected the tablet to the computer and let the system automatically install the drivers. After the sucessful notice i extracted the zip file i downloaded off the website. I installed the drivers from the file. Both driver folders. Both of them had an error after installing them but windows asked if i wanted to reinstall them (or fix the install) using there recommended method. I chose yes for both. Let it finish and whatever the result i closed it and continued ( dont remember if it came out ok or an error again). With all the errors in the beginning of installing the drivers in the folders i check to see if the computer would still recognize the device and surely it still did. Now i went in follow the instruction from the word document in upgrade section. One thing you will have to do i extract another file from within the folders. Its the same on that the instructions says to chose in the program, one of the first steps. Look for it and extract it or else you wont be able to choose it in the program itself. I had problems in the step where you had to turn off the device and connect the device to the computer via usb so the program can detect it. It didnt ork the first time, nor the second time when i disconnectednitnand reconnected it. i closed the program and restarted it. This time it detected it and i just continued as the instructions said. All came out fine with all of Google's services working including play store. Its full fledged tablet now and better then when i first recieved it.
I was having trouble with wifi connection ( internet connection) not sticking with my hotspot only but i think i got a way for it to work. I read that some tablets have similar problems. They were able to fix it by using a static ip instead of the dynamic one. I tried different ones until i found one that stuck. Now it stays connected all day. Its still under testing to see if it is a complete solution or temp fix. Though im liking the results. You with have to check the router settings to see the range of ip's it uses and just chose different one from in there. Thats the only thing i changed. Hope any of this helps as of right now there is no known root method's.

I purchased an AT&T sim card from Straight Talk to use with the JXD P1000. I am able to make phone calls and send/receive text messages, however, the data is extremely slow. Looks like I am only getting 2G speeds as the indicator light shows "E" for Edge.
Does anyone know of any settings to speed up the data? The device works great when connected to Wi-Fi, but I was hoping to use the sim card for data when Wi-Fi is not available.
Many Thanks!
I would like to complain about my current struggle with Google (since I have no one here to complain to. So I wrote Google a message and said I have a number of purchased programs that give me a download 403 error when i try to download them (geocaching, root explorer, titanium pro, gps status and toolbox pro etc.) and can they help me fix the issue. So they send me a canned response that says that I cannot install the programs because they are from a different userid of mine. So I respond and say that i have both user id's added as accounts on my phone so thats not it. So I get a canned response back that tells me there process of how apps are bought and how they are good forever and how you can install them on any devices. So I respond again telling them this is a download issue that I need help with. So I get another canned response that says during these issues you should try to wipe data on the play store and download manager. So I think, ok, this makes sense. I try that and nothing happens. So I respond again and tell them It didn't do anything but I have tried this on at least 6 different devices and it happens on all of them. So I get another canned response that says during issues like this you should delete your account and re-add it and if that doesnt work then wipe your phone to factory reset and try again. Now I am getting pissed. So I respond again and tell them that I just told them that it happens on many devices not just this device and I included a screenshot of the error this time and suggest maybe its having an issue looking up if i bought it and could they reset it so i could buy it again and see if that works. I get another canned response that says, it sounds like you are having issues with these apps, You should contact the developer so they can explain any issues that you dont understand on how their software works. NOW, each one of their responses comes with atleast a page of "We are sorry, we know this is frustrating, blah blah blah" with more detail on how to find the developers address etc." So I have this mile long email trail that's all canned bull sh!t I realize. So I responded again and told them to quit sending me canned responses and to read my damn issue so you can address it. I told them they should be working with the developer, not me, because this is their issue. Well - Stay tuned for there next canned response. I am going to blow a gasket if its another one that addressess nothing.
Has anyone else had a 403 download error in the playstore that they know how to fix?

You must have skipped the original message like google did. It happens on 6 different devices which means its not device specific.
someone in another post fixed the issue for me. little did I know that just having both accounts added to your device isnt enough, you actually have to pick which account inside google play that you want it to install from. Who knew. 1 year problem solved.
Note to self. Never ask google for help, always ask xda friends.

I got the final end all be all response from google
"It appears from the apps that you are having a problem with that your device is rooted. Because of the complexity of rooted devices, we are not able to support you".
So I told them xda told me how to fix in in 5 mins. c*ck suckers.

I think this is a good thing to remember for all of Google's apps. Most of their apps, it seems, can be used with multiple accounts that is set within the app, independent of what the main account on the phone is. Recently had a related issue with my Hangouts activity going to the "wrong" phone, just had a set the accounts correctly within the Hangouts app on both phones and all is well again.

I would like to complain about my current struggle with Google (since I have no one here to complain to. So I wrote Google a message and said I have a number of purchased programs that give me a download 403 error when i try to download them (geocaching, root explorer, titanium pro, gps status and toolbox pro etc.) and can they help me fix the issue. So they send me a canned response that says that I cannot install the programs because they are from a different userid of mine. So I respond and say that i have both user id's added as accounts on my phone so thats not it. So I get a canned response back that tells me there process of how apps are bought and how they are good forever and how you can install them on any devices. So I respond again telling them this is a download issue that I need help with. So I get another canned response that says during these issues you should try to wipe data on the play store and download manager. So I think, ok, this makes sense. I try that and nothing happens. So I respond again and tell them It didn't do anything but I have tried this on at least 6 different devices and it happens on all of them. So I get another canned response that says during issues like this you should delete your account and re-add it and if that doesnt work then wipe your phone to factory reset and try again. Now I am getting pissed. So I respond again and tell them that I just told them that it happens on many devices not just this device and I included a screenshot of the error this time and suggest maybe its having an issue looking up if i bought it and could they reset it so i could buy it again and see if that works. I get another canned response that says, it sounds like you are having issues with these apps, You should contact the developer so they can explain any issues that you dont understand on how their software works. NOW, each one of their responses comes with atleast a page of "We are sorry, we know this is frustrating, blah blah blah" with more detail on how to find the developers address etc." So I have this mile long email trail that's all canned bull sh!t I realize. So I responded again and told them to quit sending me canned responses and to read my damn issue so you can address it. I told them they should be working with the developer, not me, because this is their issue. Well - Stay tuned for there next canned response. I am going to blow a gasket if its another one that addressess nothing.

So relevant to the Note 3 that I read it twice. Only I didn't. Because it's not relevant at all. Yup.
Never had any issue with multiple accounts and downloading apps from Google Play. Always uncheck all the sync options for the non-primary account.
I was on the note 3 hence the note 3 post. But thanks for piping in.

I think Google Support is non-existent, and that's the way they've always wanted it. Why do you think Apple does so well? You can walk into ANY Apple store with an Apple product and get fairly good support with $0 cost pretty much anywhere in the USA. I've owned apple products for 4 years and when I've had a (hardware) problem with my device, it took 5 mins at an Apple store to get it replaced. I see why people like Apple. (Left iPhone 5 for Note 3 and am in heaven).
I had a problem with my Google Drive storage - I had that paid user bonus (95gb) and it disappeared one day without warning. So I contacted Google Drive support for paid users. First support guy I talked to responded: "Looks like you don't need the space, bye." LOL, really? That's not the point, it's free space that was gifted to me, I'd like it back. So, I summoned up the courage, contacted support again - and this time got someone who cared and in 2 mins I got my 95GB paid user bonus back. All depends on who you get I guess.
I've always dealt with two user IDs when I had my iPhones (mine and my wife's) and my Google Account (work, personal). Google's double account setup seems a bit more buggy - but I mostly just use it for gmail and hangouts (not apps).
And yes, moral of the story... You can almost always find a quicker, cleaner, faster solution online than contacting support.
Been using multiple accounts across eight devices for the last several years without issue. All I had to do is set up a primary Google account and secondary account from phone settings and didn't have to do anything within Google Play Store app. Can't get any more idiot proof than that.

There is no such thing as idiot proof. Just when you think it is you'll find a bigger idiot.

I used to use a HTC One Max. About one month ago, I started getting no sound when a text was sent to me, at least 90% of the time. I tried multiple things to fix it.
1. Tried 4 different SMS apps, with only one being installed at any one time. This is including the built in system one.
2. Checked all sound and notification settings, both in the SMS apps, and in the Android settings.
3. Did a complete factory wipe of the phone.
On Sunday, I got a brand new LG V10. The problem continues. . WTH!!?? My V10 was setup manually, no restore from a backup, and has not been hacked, rooted, etc. Is it possible the problem is with Verizon? I know there are a lot of knowledgeable people on this forum, so I thought I would ask here! Any and all help would be appreciated!! :good:
PS: When this happens, the phone will also not vibrate
Wow! I must be the only person in the world that has this problem!
My phone updated to Marshmallow last week, and this problem continues. Does anybody have any ideas? I find it difficult to believe nobody else has had this same problem here . I did a Google search and I find others with the same problem, but most of them were caused by a setting on their phones. Verizon, at least one of their reps in the store where I bought my phone, also did not have an answer. Anybody??
I think people are not sure what your issue is.
Essentially you are not getting notification sounds when a new text arrives?

Have you checked the volume settings???
Thanks everybody! The problem is when I get a text message, most of time my phone makes no noise and will not vibrate. I have checked every setting possible. On my HTC, I was using Mood SMS and it worked great up until the last month I had it. On that phone, even after removing all SMS apps I installed from the Playstore and using the stock app. the problem continued. I will say that when I first went back to the stock messaging app, the problem initially went away, but returned the next day. On my V10, I have only had Mood and the stock app on it. I had Zedge installed, but removed it after downloading a few things from it. I read where other people had problems with apps like Zedge, but I have used it for a few years with no issues. Today I went back to the default SMS app on my V10, and so far it is working. If it stays working, great, but I will miss Mood. I really liked that app! I could factory reset my V10, but really do not feel like it!! Maybe other SMS apps do not do so well since you cannot remove or disable the stock one without rooting. I normally do not root my phones, but I guess since I pushed Marshmallow on it, I could not do it anyway.
Hi,
As you may have known, ok Google issue has been solved in recent miui 10 stable update. Now it offers to unlock the device using voice match even when the display is turned off.
Now even I say ok Google when the screen is turned off, it does wake the device but it's still locked and it shows me pattern unlock.
How to unlock the device so that I can pass an actual command to Google assistant?
Thanks
My phone just updated to MIUI Global 10.0 (10.0.4.0 OEJMIFH) and it was fixed.
Now I can say 'Ok Goolge' and it opens assistant.
Phone unlocking by voice command is disabled by miui and afaik even Google is removing this feature from assistant, security reasons probably

It was broken when the device came out. Now they fixed it on popular demand. [emoji16]

Did you try 'Voice Match Unlock' (or something because mine is in portuguese) in settings? Here (again) is working.

Yes, I did that. It does wake up the device but doesn't unlock it.
Edit: Sorry. I wasn't facing the same issue. I was facing the issue where the Google Assistant wasn't working properly, and it would show me the error "unable to open microphone".
I found the solution on the MIUI forums. Here's what I did...
You have to go to the Google app in "Installed Apps" and clear the cache and the data and reboot, and it'll start working fine.
It was a little tricky to find the Google app as it wouldn't show in the Installed Apps. You have to click on the 3 dots on the upper right side corner and select "Show all apps" and then it'll show up. After that, you just clear the cache and the data and reboot phone, and it'll start working properly
Nevertheless, I tried your solution and it didn't work either way.
Ok Google straight up doesn't work for me

you are saying you can wake and unlock the sleeping phone by saying ok Google, right?

Don't get your hopes high about this feature's implementation on OEMs. Google were already silently phasing-out this feature and the OEMs will soon to follow.

Go to settings -> installed apps -> search for google, tap on google app -> tap clear data, clear cache, uninstall updates, then update your google app.

It sort of works for me (Stable 10.0.6.0). However, following those instructions it only wakes the phone, but doesn't unlock. But - after getting to that point, I went into the Google assistant, settings, voice, voice match and it let me select the slider - gave me a warning about being less secure, and then it woke up AND unlocked via voice.
Unfortunately, it then failed to do it the next time I tried it and asked for my pattern/face. Not sure if it requires log in sometimes and not others, or if the first time was just luck!
At one point it would wake up and let me ask a question, but only read or show me the answer when I unlocked, but now it won't even do that, so basically it's completely inconsistent! hurrah!
Clearly some sort of security issue - whether it's Xiaomi or Google's fault is up for debate, but if Google are removing it from their flagship then I wouldn't be surprised if it never works properly on anything else.
If they would only get Trusted Places working properly (Google that is) or even allow trusted Wifi (I know the security implications but I'm prepared to accept them!) then it would probably not be necessary.
I could keep it unlocked with my watch, but then I find that (despite pocket mode) my phone regularly does random things while in my pocket!
I had similar issues with my Mate 10 Pro, that I've just changed from, so it's not solely Xiaomi's fault, but is it really too much to ask to expect Android features that are offered to actually work out of the box?!

You're right. But if it had worked then it would have been a great party trick. I never had a phone which could wake up with an audio command.

The irony is that I've just switched from a Huawei Mate 10 Pro (Various reasons, but flaky bluetooth top of the list) and that did do it after the last update. That's because they have their own voice recognition baked in to the Kirin chipset though I think, so it's not using just Google's voice match - and even that took a lot of fiddling to get working. No idea how secure it was, but it was handy for finding the phone by asking it where it was! I refuse to talk to my phone in public anyway, so it's something I can live without I think
