[Q] Wifi not connecting - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Please can someone help, up until I had an update on my htc m8 I was able to log into my work wifi, I would be taken to a page and had to click "accept" and I was on! this has suddenly Stopped working and it seems like the phone won't take me to the page where I need to click "accept" it just gives me a blank page and asks me to enter my usename and password which I don't have as we all log in as "guest" plus there is nowhere to enter this info even if I had it! I tried the wifi fix and it says I'm connected yet I can't surf the net, chekc emails or anything so it's clearly not working. Others in my office have no problem so I am baffled. I've restored the phone, changed browsers and even a factory re set but to no avail. Any suggestions please? Thanks

Touch Pro 2 - e-mails do not work

Hello all!
I recieved a brand new HTC Touch Pro 2 today, and was very excited to have finally got it! However, since getting it - 12 hours ago - I have been trying and failing to set up the e-mail side of things. I use both a normal googlemail account, a POP account through outlook, and three accounts that use google aps (mail) as a host. I have followed this to the 't':
https://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=78886
But still no joy on any of the accounts except the bog standard '@[email protected] account. The phone keeps asking for my password, which I know is correct.
Anyone else have the same problems/have any ideas how to resolve this? Before I throw it against the wall! :-(
Hi
I'm having the exact same problem getting my hotmail account to work. I have a vodafone uk branded phone which I bought on eay but I'm using an O2 sim. I've managed to get everything else working but not the email. It's very depressing. It was dead easy on my trusty Xperia.
Thanks for any help...
e-mails not forwarding
Can anyone shed any light on this?
I don't know if this will help, but for your username try putting "username"@gmail.com instead of just your username. That is what I've had to do in the past and it works fine.
My issue at the moment is i have entered all the details correctly but when i try to do a send receive it says "error synchronising" and then popups up a box which says "Cannot connect with current connection settings. To change your connection settings, tab settings". Which i have no clue about because its taking me into all the TMobile data connection stuff.
I get this no matter what connection i setup. But the strange thing is when i very first did it, it worked. Every time since then has failed though.
Tried calling T-Mobile or HTC? I don't know if they could help you.
Mine is working with IMAP gmail

Two things I found.
1. Go to Settings, All Settings, Connections Tab, Connections Icon, Advanced, Select Networks. Top box should be set to T-Mobile Internet.
2. Press Edit (Just under the top drop-down), Proxy Settings. I found the default ROM (UK) was set to 149.254.201.132 - not sure if this is a hard coded ROM error, or a Network wizard setup error - either way, untick the "This network uses a proxy server...."
If this was ticked, all should be OK now.
If not, then do call T-Mobile Tech Support.
Good luck !
I had the same problem on my TP2, unbranded byon T-Mobile. Unticking the "This network uses a proxy server" box solved the problem. I had the same problem with my old TyTn2 as well.
Remenber, if you hard reset you will probably have to do this again!! Hopefully this will solve your problem.
I had the same problem with the exact same error message on my 1and1 email account. I found that when usines imap 1and1 block port 25 (to prevent spam) so when setting up the outgoing server address I had to specify another port (got that from 1and1's FAQ's where its buried and simply says that sometimes port 25 is blocked and if it is try using port xxx (can't remember which one). Anyway that worked straight away for me. Unfortunatley Winmob's error messages are pretty useless so good luck in isolating why the problem has occurred - took me two days to work it out.

HTC Desire not connecting to certain HTTPS site?

Hi all, i just got my HTC Desire but have been spending hours trying to get it to connect to my uni website,
https://portal.shef.ac.uk
It pops up with a message saying the certificate is untrusted, i press continue and then it says, " Data connectivity problem, The server failed to communicate. Try again later."
However it never works, I have tried using dolphin which brings up the same message.
However Opera and fennec browser seem to load the page fine.
Please can someone tell me what is going on.
Many Thanks
James
i Think u need to install the certificate from the web page, so the phone see it as trusted site..?

too many server directs

Hi,
I am having a problem when I try and access my Sky.com email account from my Desire. I get to the Sky.com page, click on my email, sign in and then get "Data connectivity problem" and "the page contains too many server redirects" and then a "web page not available" screen.
I have plenty of memory available on both the phone and the SD card. I have cleared cache, history and cookies etc.
I have removed all reference to sky on the phone, googled it, and tried again. Same result.
I have no problem accessing my account on my pc and I used to be able to get onto the account using the phone. It makes no difference whether I am connecting via wifi or the mobile network.
Any ideas what this means and any ideas how to solve.
Thank you.
The browser is having a problem with the way the website redirects it to the correct page. Possibly try a different browser - Dolphin, perhaps?
Thanks for that.
Have just down loaded Dolphin (nice browser) but no joy, I get exactly the same messages.
It isn't a problem accessing the account however because I can, via my pc, organise the Sky emails to be sent to my hotmail account which I can access via the phone.
However, as I used to be able to access my Sky emails from the phone but now cannot, I want/need to sort it out!!
Any further ideas?
I don't have a Sky account so can't check to see exactly what's going on here. You say "I used to be able to access my Sky emails from the phone" - do you mean on your HTC Desire? And it's just stopped working properly? That being the case, I suspect you're going to have to wait for Sky to come up with a fix. NTL/Virgin users have experienced a similar problem: http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?p=40027958
Thanks again.
I used to be able to access my e-mails directly from the Sky account on the Desire. I went abroad on holiday recently and couldn't access them (ie get into my Sky account after signing in) on the Desire, I presumed because I was out of the UK and something needed to be changed in my Sky email account settings.
However, since returning, the position remains the same. Google provide the email service for Sky.
PS And on that subject, I am also getting a security warning telling me there are problems with the security certificate in that the name of the site does not match the name on the certificate ie Sky is the site; Google is on the certificate!!
Did anyone get through this? I am getting the same damn problem.
Someone pls help.
Try operamini, that's what I allways use when websites play up.

[Q] Possibly Unique WiFi issue

So at work, to connect to WiFi, I have to log in to the network to accept terms and conditions. For whatever reason I can't login properly on my note3. When I login its supposed to take me to a logout page to keep tabbed for when I leave. The issue is, on my note3, it brings me to a similar page but very different at the same time (kinda hard to explain). The page my note goes to after signing in with my userid and password, says that I've signed in successfully and to continue surfing. However, when I attempt to go to another webpage, it redirects me to the login page. I've deselected auto switching, tried to forget the network and sign back in to no avail. I do not have this issue with my kindle and others around me with different android or idevices do not have this issue. Any ideas?
