Hello all,
I have a problem with my Desire.
I can't use my browser to surf on the web, the page doesn't load.
But I got no problems with logging on MSN or using facebook.
Someone knows the problem? Any sollutions?
Thanks
Yves
Sorry mate a bit offtopic...
but I have a problem with browser as well (very few times)
whenever I open browser it will quit itself in next 3-4sec... it will do that a
couple of time & then will be ok afterwards.
Anybody else having same problem or anybody knows of a reason 4 it and any
solutions? Thanks.

K 7 - you might get better results if you start a new thread. Yves - have you tried rebooting your phone?
I have this exact problem. HSDPA working fine, Google maps running smoothly, everything syncing. Yet my browser just doesn't work. Tried rebooting. Using an Orange phone flashed to a generic ROM
Hello, I'm new here and I have the same issue.
On Wi-Fi, everything works fine but on the network provider's data, internet browser is not working (facebook widget, updating weather or agenda work OK).
Any news since this thread started?
Thank you
Ive been experiencing the same issue. Not sure if it has anything to do with the htc homepage but i set it to google and i havent had the issue since.

Getting rid of all my custom APN settings seems to have cured this issue.

What is your own?
I'm proximus too and this problem is annoying me!
I hope I'm in the correct forum...
I have rooted and flashed VirusROM on my HTC EVO 4G. I used to be able to use Sprint's Hotspot app to tether Wifi to my carputer. I was using it Thursday on the way to my in-law's place for Thanksgiving. I left and then could not get it to work again. The computer connects and the signal is at full strength but all browsers say "Page cannot be displayed" and my weather updates down load anymore. I tried using other computers/devices and all connect but none show an internet connection. I can use Google Maps, send/receive pics and videos, and use the internet on my EVO but I cannot share it. Did Sprint cut me off? Is there a setting I mistakenly changed?? I was under the impression that I can tether for free when its rooted. I even download to different tether apps and got the same results. Anybody have any suggestions? Any and all help would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks in advance...

Although I am not using wifi tether, I am using the built in wireless tether through Miui. It is working flawlessly on my Mac. I suggest you change your SSID and maybe your password. If no success delete your network settings and try again.

I've never heard of Miui. I'll try that next. I already tried changing the SSID, the passwords, and even the encryption type and nothing worked...I'm gonna go back and try it all again. Thanks for the input, dude!!
Didn't know Miui was a ROM...I like the way I have everything set on Virus so I was hoping to not have to change ROM's. Thanks again though! Please keep suggestions coming, guys!

Try this link, not sure which one will work for you but the pre-14 works for me. Just try each one untill you find one that works on your ROM, sorry I can't point you to ont that I know will work on that rom. I know the link says Nexus one but they will work on the Evo just fine. Most of these act just linke a router, not an ad-hoc.

That was one of the other tether apps I tried...that and barnacle...I downloaded and tried it again and it still didn't work...thanks for the info!

I tried the top 3 but none worked...I don't think thats the problem though because tethering worked up until Thursday and then it stopped for all apps. I had that app working before...thanks again

One last ditch effort, try changing the channel to channel one in one of the wireless tether app, just saw a post where this fixed the problem for some people. Good luck

Sprint's HotSpot and Wifi Tether don't give the option and Barnacle was already set on Channel 1 :/ Thanks though
Wireless tether is what I was talking about I use pre 14, just open the app and menu/settings, its the 4th option down.
I don't know how I missed that option. I went in and changed it to Channel 1 but no change...my roommate came home and sparked up his Incredible's hotspot and it worked perfectly of the bat...something has got to be wrong with my EVO
does your evo say that a device connected and does it show that anything downloaded under the wireless tether app mine used to get stuck at just over 1kb of data then i modded my framework_res.apk and somehow i can tether again
It does seem to stay on a very low KB like 1.1...although it does show the devices that are connected...
Mine did the exact same thing although im not entirely sure what I did that fixed this I edited the xml code for the notification bar and edited the notification bar which somehow caused my tethering to work

Sorry to hear that...its so damn frustrating!
Yea it is, i'm about to work on some homework, any chance if you get it working, you think you can pm me how you fixed it ? thanks in advance
Any other thoughts?? Is there a way to test to see if the actual hardware failed?
Would it be possible for some of you guys to install a couple of apps to test as I'm having problems with them.
The apps are World Newspapers (Abhishek Kumar) & BBC News (Jim Blacker). They install fine & launch. The problem I'm having is that I can't read any of the articles over wifi. When I turn off wifi & use 3g connection everything works fine.
I've done a hard reset & installed just those two apps but same thing happens. Also what I found is after a hard reset I can't access Android market over wifi. I have to switch off wifi & sign in using 3g connection first but after that its fine
Thanks

It happened to me as well and same as you first I had to access the market with 3G connection first to pass the terms and services stage/page.
Just a wild guess here... maybe both apps need to know where you are (location/country) so they can push the right news to you and that is not possible over a wifi connection.
I have both apps installed on a Dell Streak, HTC Desire, Galaxy S & Orange San Francisco with everything working perfectly fine over wifi.

Ouch! I did say it was a wild guess. Do you own all those devices? : )
Have you tried to set your network type to 2G only to see if that helps? Please kill/stop both apps first and if you are about to change your network type then please don't forget to reset it back.
Sorry mate wasn't trying to be cocky....
I've just installed Engadget app & having problems with that as well. When using over wifi it downloads the articles text only, pictures don't load. Again over 3g the whole article including pictures downloads just fine.
FYI Pulse app displaying same behaviour...
I think I may have a faulty phone.

What you just described in above meets when Data Server is enabled. Menu>Settings>Data Manager>Data server
This feature is meant for 3G though so I don't get why that happens over your wifi.
Another thing came in my mind was that a standard router supports 4 ports (connections) and you listing dozens of devices I was wondering how many devices are connected to the router when you are using your Defy? Surely you have a couple of pc/laptop too : )

My phone speaker stopped working after a couple of weeks so I returned to Amazon for refund. My Defy definately had a problem with the apps I described including yours, but as there not much people replying to this thread then maybe it was limited to just my device.
My friend
Where are you and which ISP you are using?
I believe the problem doesn't caused by your Defy.

HI there its nothing to do with isp. I have a Dell Streak, HTC Desire, Samsung Galaxy S & JUST got a Nexus S & they all have no problems with the apps.
Oh. I'm sorry about that. Can you check /system/etc/host ? You can view that as a text file. In a normal situation you can see "localhost 127.0.0.1" . if there has any other text, could you tell me?

re-set up APN
i just did a factory reset but it doesnt work. i will try to re set the APN and i will let you know the result thanks.....
I'm using Virgin Mobile Network in France and I have the same error.
Even reset the phone don't work. (so don't waste your time with this)
With the same google account it works with Wifi or with another carrier, so my carrier would be the problem, I called them but It seems the skills of Virgin Mobile France tech team are very low.
I hope future will show me the opposite

Yes i had same problem with you but now is working again,just try delete the proxy number you should be ok

How do I go about resetting my APN? I'm having the same issue. Maybe you could post a link that tells me how to go about it? I'd be happy with just that really.
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=android+reset+apn
I have this issue on my Nexus 7 when trying to download the latest Asphalt 7: Heat update. Since it doesn't have 3G I can't reset the APN... any other ways?
Edit: Uninstalling and then reinstalling Asphalt 7 seems to be working, it's at least downloading now.
That's a tip to anyone else having this issue on a non-3G device. Also, I just realized this is in the One X subforum, sorry about that. I just saw the thread title on Google and figured it was the right place to post this.
Resetting my APN worked for me, thanks!
Another solution
This worked for me Using Omegas ROM on my SGS III :
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Fix Permisions
Hope it helps somebody
Clear play store data & wipe dalvik cache
Google problem..
From what I'm reading it's a google problem.. I have the same problem "AT THE SAME TIME" on my tablet and my mobile... maybe my isp, my router,
I can't post links.. but the problem it's fixed now.. How you say? A super ultra fast call to my ISP.. they switched the channels frecuency.. (Yes, I could have done that.. but I was intrigued why on the same devices at the same time.. but NO.. if on my cell phone I used the 3G (it's from other company) So I started thinking.. maybe the gateway, proxy.. etc. you name it..
So the problem was with the wifi channel.. don't ask me.. I'm just posting this for those trying everything.. and this one.. worked for me. (On both devices)
ps. of course, I can't be sure if they did something else... that's what they told me.. edit: A closer look to the router.. told me.. that they in fact DID something else.. because it's the same channel.... !!!
hello folks..
hope you all doing good..
since 2 hours my Internet connection is not working on my desire,,it was working in afternoon but not since evening..
when on the internet, its shows a Sync sign on my notification bar But nothing sync & only upload bar is ON and download bar is off, so not able to open any web page.. and the other thing is my internal memory shows 60mb free which earlier showed as 50mb.. so i'm little confused here. whats going on..
need help from you guys,so should i make my internet work.
thanks
First of all, what ROM are you running, or are you still running on HTC's factory Sense? Secondly are you using WIFI or cellular network? And how do you know that your internet connection is not working? Give us some more detail to work with
i have not root my phone,,im running official gingerbread on my desire & using htc factory sense..
i'm trying to use cellular network,,dont have wi-fi.
i'm not able to open any webpage or android market...there is sync icon on notification icon which appears once i connect to cellular network & nothing happens..
Just for asking, but have you tried rebooting your phone?
Also, do you know of anyone else who is using the same carrier, and check if they are having the same issues?
Did you maybe skip your contract limit?
I'm asking you these questions, to be able to isolate the problem, and not just point fingers at your phone
yes i reboot my phone,removed battery & again restarted,,but still internet doesnot work..
nope,,non of my friends are facing this issue & net is working my other nokia phone..and still 850mb data is available for me to use,,
yea i understand that..
This problem is dwindling down to be related to your mobile.
Are you using an APN? If so, can you open it, write down the settings, *delete it* reboot your phone and create a new one with the same settings?
If you are not, I'm beginning to run out of ideas of what could be causing you this issue.
guys i got the solution... the below software made me help copy messages & all my contacts to pc..

hey mate i did factory reset,,still same problem occurs,, & cannot connect to internet...
any suggestions ..what can i do next?
You may want to try one last thing. Swap your sim into another mobile from which you can access your carrier network and access your internet from it. If it works then I'm afraid you're going to have to take your mobile for repair since you're still on stock rom. If not then somethings up with your contract, and should contact your carrier for an explanation.

yea im currently doing that... :/
i insert my sim into different cellphone,,still internet does not work.. it gives following message---
Data connectivity problem. The server failed to communicate , Try again later.
now, what to do?
I suggest you talk to your contract carrier since it seems that your phone is not the problem.
