Solution to google sign in problems in android devices

Have you facing errors like,

Could't sign in
Can't establish a reliable connection to the server.

This could be a temporary problem or your android device may not be provisioned for data services. if it continues, call customer care.

I have tried 

  • hard reset
  • rebooting
  • connecting via wifi
  • reflashed rom
  • youtube trick
  • gmail trick
  • VPN changing
  • Trying 3G
  • taking out SIM, etc.
none of these worked. But here is only simple solution ...


###Please do it at your own risk.###

1.- Root your device (of course)

2.- Editing the host file

You will need a proper editor, use ES file manager
 
3.- Browse with ES file manager to root/etc OR etc folder

Open etc/hosts and edit as a text file. Just put # before 74.155.43.123 android.clients.google.com. (numbers can be different)

4.- Save

Edited file should look like this:

127.0.0.1 localhost
#74.155.43.123 android.clients.google.com 

Remember: it should be look like this:

127.0.0.1(just one space)localhost
#74.155.43.123(just one space)android.clients.google.com 

5.- Turn OFF your device.

6.- Reboot your device.

7. -Once the phone reboots, input your google account information when the phone asks for it.

Now you can connect to Google Play!

That's all folks...
