I'm not getting any notifications from Twitter, Facebook, Whatsapp, e-mail etc when I'm on a data connection (Works on wi-fi). E-mail says "Couldn't open connection to server", Whatsapp doesn't send or receive messages and Facebook and twitter work normally in app, but without notifications.
I'm running CM9 as my ROM. Help.

hey guys.
i have a million questions but i'll restrict this post to two for now.
a little back up...i have my evo unlocked and rooted on AVA Froyo V6 on MetroPCS' network. i have their $50 smart phone plan which has push email. this feature worked great on my samsung code from metro.
now on to the issues
first and most annoying - using the stock internet browser, while WIFI is OFF i can browse using MetroPCS data network. it works well and at their speeds. if i turn on wifi, no matter where, both the stock internet browser and skyfire suddenly start giving connection errors. if i turn off wifi they go back to working but on the data network. while these two arent working, market works, pandora, facebook, weather, etc. all apps work on wifi except those two internet browsers. i should also mention opera mobile WORKS. not SKYFIRE and not the default browser - which I happen to like more than the other two!
any ideas why? what can i do to fix this?
second and also annoying - the email app SUCKS. i use Hotmail for everything. i have my gmail account forwarding there, my university account forwarding there, my website accounts forwarding there. everything ends in my hotmail account. with my previous phone (samsung code running windows mobile 6.1) i had push email working wondefully and i got used to that. i know the network has the capacity to do it. i also know it's not a problem with the network and this phone, as the email app will download the emails when it feels like it. but then if i read the email or delete the email on the phone, it doesnt do so in the server even though I have it set to do it. also when I go in and click refresh it will tell me there arent any new emails when I know there are...and then when it feels like it later it downloads the email.
is there a program, whether free or paid, that will let me have proper push email with my hotmail account? i dont need any computer sync, just download my email on the fly, preferably as they arrive.
thanks much in advance!
if i can get those two issues worked out my EVO experience will be completely blissful
for your first question i dont have an answer.
for your second question have you tried k9 mail? It works for me doing something similar. I use yahoo and not hotmail but similar set up with all mails coming to that 1 email and it pushes them as i get them and dont normally have any issues with this. It also removes them jsut fine from yahoo.
i installed K9 and it's doing things well with one major issue...which i've now come to realize is the same issue affecting the stock mail app.
the phone can't connect to HOTMAIL's outgoing server. so it downloads the emails as they arrive and i can open them and what not. but if i read them, or delete them, it doesn't update them in the server. it also wont let me send an email out, saying the SMTP settings are wrong, even though it's setting them automatically. so all of these issues are because the phone is not connecting to the outgoing server!
what now?

anyone have any idea on the internet with wifi issue?
Guys is push mail working for everyone on gmail when on 3G? when on WiFi pushmail is working perfectly and emails are received instantly, but when i'm on 3G only manual refresh works.
Another thing i cannot find on ICS, where do i set the frequency of updating for Facebook, twitter etc? Under accounts & sync i can only set this for weather...all the rest, the feature is missing.
Edit: Sorry, forgot to add....I'm on 1.28 since yesterday, stock, not rooted
Any help appreciated

I'm using Exchange push on 3G without any issues. I usually have my G-Tab next to me and they both receive e-mail at almost the exact same time.
For sync setting go to: Settings>Accounts & sync. All the apps that are syncing are listed and if you tap one each one it'll allow you to change what, how, and when they sync. You can add or remove accounts their also.
Barry thanks for confirming about pushmail. As for the Accounts & Sync i know about this. But try to go on eg. facebook. All i see is:
Sync Calendar
Sync Contacts
Sync live feed
No option to change the "when"
Same for all accounts except weather. I'm not sure if 1.26 was the same because as soon as i bought one x i got the 1.28 OTA and installed it
Afaik, you can change the sync interval of facebook and twitter in the option panel of the application itselve.

I have the same issue. It is driving me insane as I need to have access to my GMail on the go
No issues with PUSH on Gmail here at all. 3G and even 2G. Everything just works.
Guys, i'm trying to figure out if it's a phone problem, a software problem or a provider problem, but my situation is as follows.
When i'm on WiFi i have Gmail push notifications instantly (sometimes faster than my PC). The same with Facebook, when on WiFi it sends the notifications normally.
When i'm on 3G i never get Gmail notifications unless i open the gmail app and "Update". Same with Facebook (and twitter). If i have it to update every 1 hour, it doesn't auto-update on 3G unless i sync.
I tried everything...factory reset, uninstall gmail and reinstall...clear app data and cache...Auto-sync is on
I'm currently on 1.29.401.7, but problem was the same on 1.28.401.9
Any ideas?

I have exactly the same issue. It is driving me insane
Why does my phone randomly say network connection error msn at the bottom of the screen? It also says connection error aol.

Are you running any instant messaging apps in the background? Do the messages show up when you don't have wifi or a data connection?
