Awaiting Connections means it is having trouble talking to the outside world

The most common cause of this is the date and time being set wrong. Really. This may seem like it shouldn't do anything, but if the date and time are wrong, it cannot talk to our payments servers. Here is how to fix.

Step 1: Tap the for corners of the screen in clockwise order. Tap the upper left, then the upper right, then the lower right, then the lower left.

Step 2: Swipe up from the bottom

Step 3: Open the Settings app

Step 4: Open the System section. You will need to scroll to the bottom to see System

Step 5: Open the Date & Time section.

Step 6: Check the time zone first. Before you fix the time, check the time zone. If the time zone is wrong, be sure to turn off Use network-provided time. Then tap the time zone and set to the correct value.

Step 7: Set the date next. After checking the time zone, be sure the date is correct. If not, be sure to turn off Use network-provided time. Then set the date.

Step 8: Finally, set the time. After checking the time zone and date, be sure the time is correct, including AM/PM. If not, be sure to turn off Use network-provided time. Then set the time.

Step 9: Reboot the device. Press and hold the button on the right for 5 seconds, and tap Restart.

I fixed the time and now it's working!

I am still stuck on Awaiting Connection despite having the correct time set
