I searched for this, and maybe I'm the only one having trouble?
I can access the xda forums through both the xda app and browser on my s4 one x over WiFi:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
But when I connect to Bell mobile data, I cannot access the xda forums through either the app or the browser.
What's up with that? Other websites work fine:

Wait. You use browser for reading XDA on your phone?
Try XDA app.

Nope, but as you can see I already said I can't from the app OR the browser. It's just very hard to take a screenshot of the xda app after it closes because of the lack of connection.
I showed/referred to the browser to show that it's not an issue with the app, because the browser doesn't work either.

Try using a VPN.That should get things working fine again.
From that error it sounds like perhaps the IP won't resolve. You can try adding the XDA IP to your hosts file, perhaps that will fix this.
That would be caused by a DNS error at your ISP, nothing we can do about that without more information on the problem.

Maybe Bell wants to prevent people from rooting their phones and it's the only lame attempt they came up with hahaha

Not trying to blunt, but wouldn't this app eat anyones data plan like a "Ice cream sandwich"? No data plan is actually unlimited (they all have limits).

do you really know how much data is saved from this app and ease of use? If you open forum in browser you will waste more than double of your data than app consumes..
PS: I do use unlimited 2g data plan

I don't understand the problem then. The majority of the people here have their phone rooted and most likely have a third party wifi tether app. If the third party app masks the wifi tether ability, then noone is really affected.

OP, this is just the normal boot process. As your phone boots up, it scans your media and the data activity you see is your phone either checking your email, App updates, etc.

For Google Music. You really gotta stop worrying about this stuff. If people wanted to check on what you're doing, they can do it from any phone, even if you get a basic flip phone. Same thing with your computer so I wouldn't be so paranoid...
Take solice in the fact that 99.999999% of us have very little control over what or who may or may not be exploiting us or our information at any given time. Trust that you (along with the rest of us) are like drops in an ocean of potential exploits. Law of large numbers... welcome to the machine.

Have you tried removing it? If it doesn't let you have you tried to go into Titanium Backup and deleting it from there?

That's the website that both the market icon and search take me to. There is no application that's related to these 2 programs that I could find.

You must have installed a crappy app that put those there. Backtrack a little, what were the last apps that you installed?
Thats a tough one. I just did an odin of stock then back to 2.7 calk with ICS theme. I installed about 30 apps not through titanium. I keep a running list and no apps have changed in at least 60 days. Hmm
Your phone has a bug... Factory reset and don't install the "Sexy Time You Have Won a Million Dollars From a Nigerian Price Angry Bards Random APK On The Internet" app this time.

Handango.com is one of the VERY first app markets out there, long before android came about. We're talking palm pc, even before pocketpc which was before even Windows mobile.
It's just YET another marketplace to spend on apps. Think amazon market, Samsung market, etc.
On the other hand, no idea what you installed that got you their market. I HAVE heard of a few apps installing this that came from pirate sites.

I have a Vibrant and after letting the real Market run updates on a bunch of apps, I ended up with these same two icons.
Download Addons Detector and it will list all the advertising and other junk associated with every app on your phone.
I had that happen on my niece's tablet. It's caused by an app. Just drag and delete the market since its not an actual app but a shortcut to the websites page and then set a new homepage in your browser since the fake market overwrote yours.

Yep this is what I did. I deleted them and cleared my internet cache and so forth. I do find it strange however, because I don't visit any pirate sites at least that I'm aware of. Since delete nothing has come back. Thanks for the tips.

Anyone noticed at times when using the internet 9 on windows that if you try to back out of a page you can't . On XDA.... Not talking about other sites..
When you right click the back button 4 ads seem be already clicked even tho you didn't click any . Seems like some topics or forum's ads are preloaded into the links.

Why should I change my browser of choice for one offending website?
Get rid of the liftdna BS!
I like internet 9 no issues with it just don't like how pages will hang to you can't back out . Because you are kinda forced on clicking ads that you don't wanna click on due to it being embedded into links.
I know sites make money off ads nothin wrong with that . Just wish it wasn't snuck in like that lol. Anyways hope you guys have a good weekend
See alot of that liftdna... Wonder what that is for?

I used to tether my sg3 on regular basis with no problem until recently I wanted to tether, went on chrome and instead of loading my website it loads a T-Mobile message about if I want to add a tether plan bla bla bla. However I can still use everything else like update windows, a game, and play online games. Anyone knows how to solve this annoying problem? I use pdanet and did try using other tethering apps and still having the issue.
Btw it happens each time I tether ever since that night

Bro there are at least three threads on this. I think at least two are on the first page of the forum here. Not trying to be a ****, but people are going to tear you a new one for not searching. There are a lot of things you can do to fix tethering. Apn changes, user client changes. Etc. Good luck on your quest for a working solution.
