Google apps not working on mobile data, although non-Google apps are working

Question

I have a strange problem on my Samsung J2 Android phone. Although apps like WhatsApp and some games which require Internet work, none of the Google Apps like Google, Chrome, YouTube and Play Store are working. Whenever I open the Google apps, it shows "Check your internet connection" although my mobile data is on. But, on connecting my phone to a Wi-Fi network, these apps work. How can I fix this?


P.S. One more important thing: When I open Chrome, I get a message saying ERR_PROXY_CONNECTION_FAILED.

Answer

ERR_PROXY_CONNECTION_FAILED.


This obviously has to do something with proxies. Either you set a proxy through your cellular data setting or some application has put phone in tunneling (VPN etc).


And obviously google services are highly sensitive to proxy IPs. Check if your IP is what your ISP has provided. Google services are often buggy with cache so try clearing some cache as well.


Changing APNs might also work, sometimes Google might get sensitive of your real IP. Do a hotspot sharing and check google services with that IP on other devices.
