Grey wifi icon - gets blue after apps installation.

[AC Question]

Hello,

Recently, I have encountered a strange problem. My tablet Prestigio PMP5770D (rooted Jelly Bean 4.1.1) somehow got grey wifi icon bug. I'm not sure how, but it could have started after copying files to the tablet via USB. Before was working fine. I've noticed that it gets back to blue color only after installing some apps from Google Play Store. When wifi icon is grey I don't get notifications (like with no connection to Google servers). However, Play Store and other Google apps work fine. I've tried switching on and off router, forgetting my wifi,clearing Google Play Services and Google Play Store cache, deleting google account, wiping cache in this boot menu, modyfying hosts file (in etc folder), clearing cache from Google Services Framework, I even did a factory reset and it didn't help. During setting everything up from scratch on my tablet after factory reset, I had problems with downloading apps (stopping during download process, installing after killing Play Store app and launching it again) and granting root access (Root Checker (for the first time it got root rights), Clean Master and problems with loading of Google apps).
Does somebody know what to do ? Can this problem be somehow connected with the change of a router which I did 2 week ago ?
Thanks in advance for help.

What is your script friend?

Based on uite's solution I found out mine..
I had Google Talk (chat) app disabled in my phone [Gigabyte GSmart Maya m1 v2, Android 4.2.1]
I've re-enabled Google Talk app, logged in and my Wi-Fi icon became blue again!
I keep the app enabled but I use it in logged out state. It doesn't seem to run in the background, so I've not tried to disable it again.

Hello, same problem here: after a factory reset, my Mediacom 875 tablet would run fine except for the grey WiFi icon which only turned normal after any app update. Didn't reinstall/update some Gapps since I had no need for them (G search, sound search) and feared it was due to that. I had tried everything i found online with no success, but then I had an idea: since many sources said GTalk was the cause, and Hangouts succeeded GTalk, I tried installing it. Voilà, WiFi icon solid again, even after freezing Hangouts, so no need to keep it active and logged.
Hope this will help someone else.
