I have a peculiar problem and i guess, from google search results, that many others have similar problem.
I am using Samsung Galaxy S 2 mobile phone.
Of late, the default Browser application on my samsung galaxy s2 just keeps coming up with the standard "Web page not available" page when I try to connect to any website.
I generally use default browser to access the web and this used to work perfectly. Of late it has developed this problem. I then tried Dolphine, Miren, Skyfire and this also did the same!
All other applications are fine and can connect to the internet perfectly well. Only In browser, which was downloaded prior to this problem, works fine.
So it seems like something is amiss with my settings / files that the default Browser, Dolphin and Skyfire use.
Any ideas?
You can also reach me on [email protected].
Hoping that someone here would be able to resolve this issue.
Samsung GT-I9100, Android version 2.3.4, Orange network
I had this problem. Browser worked fine on 3G and would not work on wi-fi even though all apps worked. I fixed this by deleting the Proxy setting - Wi-Fi settings > menu Advanced > Proxy and clear the field. Works OK now.
thanks for response, but it does not solve my problem.
i hope any senior member would come forward on this problem.
Hi, i got the same problem, is Access Point Names problem. Please go Settings->Wireless and network->Mobile Networks->Access Point Names->and choose the DIGI/CELCOM/MAXIS internet. * choose according what telco you using.
solved: use packet data
Hi- Samsung Galaxy S2 with same problem. Also could not attach pictures to text messages, and phone stuck on "downloading" a message of type "multimedia message notification"; both of which may be related issues?
This helped me: make sure "use packet data" is checked at:
settings\wireless and network\mobile networks
(It may have been cancelled by letting my battery die?)

Yesterday, I successfully updated to android 2.1. I have confirmed that the APN information is correct and that there is sufficient network coverage. I have activated data in the settings - yet I cannot seem to get a data connection. Unless I activate WIFI, neither facebook nor mail will update, and I also cannot open websites in several browsers (opera, fennec, standard browser, dolphin).
I also don't get an icon for 3g or hsdpa connection.
Anyone having the same problem? Or even better... a solution?
Best,
-Mike

I would say it's your carriers networks are down. I had a similar problem but the 3G symbol was there and it just would download anything. I then disabled juice defender and it works perfectly.
If you are running the nordic kit this seems to be a fairly common problem. One of the guys over at phandroid fixed this by going to the SIM Toolkit and downloading settings, but I did not have this option. I was able to get it working temporarily by fiddling with the APN settings, but then like you it just failed to work any more.
I have flashed back to 1.6 and am now going to update with generic uk firmware.
So - I tried the Sony Ericsson option in the settings (topmost menu entry) to automatically download settings, I tried setting them manually, I tried auto-configuring via the apn-options... nothing worked...
then, suddenly, without having changed anything - I get a 3G signal. Seems to have sorted itself out for whatever reason. Will update in case anything changes.

Worked for me.
I have two Photon phones and the same apps on both of them. On WiFi, the stock Browser will connect to the Web perfectly on both of them. However, on 3G or 4G, one works OK, while the other phone displays "Web Page not available". Same problem with Opera and Dolphin browsers.
1. Rebooting did not help.
2. Shutting down, removing the battery and restarting did not help.
3. Changing settings in Settings/Wireless & networks/Mobile networks/Network mode to Automatic, Sprint Only, or Any CDMA does not fix this problem.
4. Updating the PRL and Profile as well as Motorola Software doesn't help.
In the setting of the Browser Clearing all (history, cookies, cache etc) did not help. Of course, as this problem affects any browser, it may be some problem with a bad setting for a proxy or something related to a proxy. Please note that all app that use Internet like Market, Stocks, New York Times, FoxNews etc work perfectly on 3G/4G.
i had the same issue with mine the other day when I changed my homepage because of the error, I went to Google.com then settings and set homepage as current so there was no issue.
Hello everyone! I've encountered a substantial problem with my galaxy s2 and I would like your help, if possible.
This problem is related to the mobile network. Each time I try to connect to a website I get some kind of error, from 'Data connectivity problem' to 'Server failed to communicate' and even the traditional 'Web page not available'.
Note: There are a couple of websites that seem to work, such as: m.orange, m.facebook.com and m.yahoo.com.
At this point I would like to mention that Wi-Fi works as intended, with no problems whatsoever.
As for the mobile network, I believe I have the right settings resembled in the APN settings. Data connection is turned on, and I have tried both GSM and 3G. I have also tried different internet browsers, such as Opera, with the same result: only m.orange, m.facebook and m.yahoo seem to work.
It is quite frustrating at times not to have access to a mobile network. I would like to add that this problem remains to any apps that need a network connection in order to run. Therefore, I cannot run anything (Android Market, Google Maps, Youtube app, etc etc).
Thank you for your time. Please advise!
First of all, double check APN settings, see if your provider has an app in the market, or sometimes you can send an SMS and they'll sms you settings.
Secondly, try another modem, you may have a weak modem, before doing this download speedtest and check your connection speed and post that up. To see hows well it's connecting.
Thirdly, check your operators website to make sure they are not having network difficulties in your area.
Is their a setting that turns standard web pages off because that's what it looks like .

Visit the webpage of your service provider. Usually on their support page you can have their data/mms settings sent to you by sms which then will be "auto-installed" on your phone. Good luck!
Hi, I recently updated my phone to ICS and now I am having issues with BT Open one and Fon.
On this phone using GB I turned on my wifi, opened the browser (Dolphin HD) and it kicked me to the log in page whenever I was at work and it was fine. However now I don't get redirected. Instead I get 'webpage not available' in Dolphin, and a lengthy 'DNS lookup failed' message in Chrome. Stock browser is also displaying 'webpage not available'.
I am showing 3 or 4/4 bars on the wifi icon and in wireless settings it says BT Fon connected. But Openzone (which is the only other in range) does exactly the same thing.
I tried calling BT but they don't do tech support for specific devices. She did say, however, that the DNS needs to be set to automatic to redirect to the landing page. I'm not very good with networks and their features so I am stumped here.
I've tried to be as thorough as possible. Does anyone have any advice to point me in the right direction please?

Hi
I am trying to connect to my office wifi via proxy server.
Scenario 1: I am using Samsung Bada (wave 1), connected to the internet successfully and also any applications that require an internet connection including Samsung's app store.
While, connecting via open networks like home wifi and other friends' wifi also worked without any issue.
Scenario 2: Now I also have an android based Galaxy pocket: even after entering all the required proxy setting as mentioned above, I can access websites via browser but cannot access samsung's app store, google's play store, skype, sipdroid etc.,
I know it is nothing to do with the network administration as I am still accessing via my samsung wave but not via android. Please help me in identifying what I am missing. Is there anything like a network profile I need to assign for these applications?
thanks

Figured out the solution
Sometimes it is pathetic to notice that I didn't receive a single suggestion after I posted my question above. This is not how it used to be when we had smartphones that were just running windows long time ago.
There were lot of suggestions that comes up within a few minutes of posting, now after the invent of android and so many devices we have so many members but knowledge sharing has decreased considerably as each person is busy with solving their own issues.
Well, let me come back to the point - All that I needed to do was to run an app like 'proxydroid' or 'auto proxy lite' from one of our members from xda-developers to solve this issue. In order, to run these apps the device needed to be rooted. I rooted and installed this app and from that instance I am able to make all my apps including skype, google app market and what not all can access internet from my corporate wifi.
However, I noticed that only one application never succeeded this trick - that app is a Voip/SIP application called 'Pronto dialer' which throws a message 'unknown error occurred'. It works fine in an open wifi like at home etc., I am suspecting the proxy setting in the office network clashes with the proxy setting in the dialer...dont know what it is. Anyway I am glad and relieved that I was able to solve 90% of the issue.
Hope the above will be useful for someone with similar limitation from corporate wifi.
