[Q] GPRS Issues - Nokia Lumia 800

My Lumia is driving me nuts.
My GPRS connection is not working as it should. I get all the email push updates and all but cannot access web using IE most of the times. Sometimes I can but most of the time i cant. Can anybody help me to solve this problem??

Please help me out guys

This could have a number of reasons. I notice sometimes, that webpages won't load on weak signal strength but push noticifations do work. Another possibility is, that you have some sort of signal loss during the loading of the page. Have you ever tried to reproduce this from a diffrent loaction?
ANother possibility would be a carrier problem. An exchange/test with another sim-card would help in this case.
Do websites work over WIFI?

Where the **** are you that you only get GPRS?
And same as this dude^ web pages might not load if the connection is too slow.

And yes websites work with wifi perfectly

[Q] wifi connected but can not connect

Hey I'm new to android, just got a vibrant last week. Decided to unlock it as I travel a lot. The unlock worked, but now I'm having issues with my wifi. I can connect to a wireless network but I cant load pages. The wireless signal is strong and I tried with different routers, but still no luck. Looked through the forum and googled it but couldn't find a solution. If some one could please help with this, it would be much appreciated
try clearing your current wifi settings including remembered connections, passwords, and everything else...then re-scan for networks all over again, that's all I can think of for now
By that you mean just gong into settings->wireless and networks->wifi settings and then just forget the net work, rescan, and rejoin the network? If so, I did that but am still getting the same result. If you can think of anything else or if I didnt do what you suggested correctly please let me know. Thanks

yeah, thats what I meant :/....hmmm...sounds like your connection is working, can you download stuff from the market or is it just the browser? cause I unlocked mine too and wifi works fine
No I cant download anything from the market. I cant do anything that requires an internet connection, but it does show that I am connected to a network.

I sure hope so, thanks for your help
Have you been able to try another network? My first thought was it was in Ad-Hoc mode but I could be wrong. If nothing else restore to stock firmware and then try a different unlock.
Happened to me too. It would show the wifi icon on the notification bar but wouldn't load pages. I'd go to the settings and it'd say can't turn off wifi or can't turn on wifi. And when it was "on" I'd say connecting to modem then it'd just stop. When I was using the browser on wifi it would load a page even when I had full bars. I had to turn it off then back on to load another page. Is this similar to the problem your having?

I hope this doesn't sound stupid but yesterday I uninstalled Advanced Task Manager and poof my wifi started working again. The phone also seems to suffer from less occasional lag without it installed, but that's another story for another thread. Prior to this I had to manually turn my wifi connection off and on, but even that didn't always work. Since the uninstall I have not my wifi connection once. I am currently using the stock rom, rooted with minor adjustments here and there.
hi guys, i also have this problem.
i will be taking the phone in to the tmobile store on thursday.
it shows that i am connected via wifi; however, anything that requires an internet connection does not load.
very frustrating, since just yesterday i used the samsung kies software to tether a network for my laptop. i was testing the capability of the vibrant to act as a modem, and it worked just fine.
any help would be appreciated!
thank you
Charlie
connected but not connected
I also have this problem.
In my Vibrant shows that i connected, but i can not load pages. Someone
found any solution to this problem?
Hi all,
This is happening to me too. Rebooting seems to get Wifi working correctly again. But the problem comes back eventually.
Maybe a bug in the latest JI6 update?
Wi-fi problem.

Thanks.

Keep loosing 3G connectivity

Hi,
This might be specific to my provider(Airtel) or city (Bangalore, India) so please excuse me for sending to such a wide audience. But I hope its specific to phone and there is a solution.
I keep loosing my 3g connectivity on this phone. It comes and goes and has now basically become a reliability issue. Most of the times I need to deactivate the data network mode and activate it back.
Has anyone else also noticed this?
It's because where you live 3G service is unstable, same with me also, it goes back to H+.
Regards.
or maybe you should try and change your modem.
try flashing KH1 or KH3, see if it matters..
Thanks for the responses. If its related to network, I guess I don't have a choice. About flashing the ROM, I have not yet rooted the phone and lies is still on KF3, so guess I will wait for the next update and hope things will improve.
I had some similar problems here in The Netherlands... I use a provider that is 'roaming' on another provider's network (for those who are familiar: I use Telfort, which roams on the KPN network).
The current CSC I have in my phone, is a specific CSC for The Netherlands (XENKE1). However, it keeps losing 3G connectivity over time, and I also need to reset the connection to get it back working.
For now I can solve this issue by manually selecting the operator instead of automatic operator selection. You might want to try this, it worked for me at least.
Thanks gscjot. Your solution seems to have worked. In last 20 odd hours I had to manually restart the 3g service only once. So I guess this is actually not a issue with the phone itself but the operator. Thanks a lot.
It might have something to do with the modem or CSC that is in the phone. I am currently on stock 2.3.3 but I tried Darky's rom as well (on 2.3.4). As this ROM has a different CSC, I could leave the network detection on automatic. Only setback then, is that the phone shows 'r' (roaming) on my home network and I have to manually disable 3G when I go abroad.
Best regards,
Gerco
I am using tata docomo connection india when I download anything from market or anywhere else the downloads stop as soon as I stop parallel browsing, so I tried downloading songs while pinging yahoo using pinging app some users are experiencing same problem please help me out

Hmm, NL-KPN here with Polish CSC (OXA, don't ask me why, bought it in NL) but I stream internet radio on my way to work in the car for 70 km without losing connection once, and that includes 2 long tunnels.
All stock KG5 with only cf-root.
Still no relief

Hi,
Can anyone on 2.3.4 comment if they see the same issue as mentioned here. I am again back to my struggling ways and starting to believe that is this a software only issue and courtesy SAMSUNG.

Galaxy S2 Data connectivity problem

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 .
jje
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!

[Q] Wi-Fi Dropping #UK

I'm getting often wi-fi drop outs throughout the day and the only way to fix it is by restarting the router?!
Restarting the phone doesn't work
Turning off/on the wi-fi doesn't work
Switching bands doesn't work
yet it still allows connection to BTFON/BT OPENZONE? But won't connect to my broadband.
It's kind of annoying, because on the status bar it shows that it's still on wifi but going into settings and turning it off/on then shows it's not working. As it won't connect to the internet obviously.
Anybody else getting this? Any fixes?!
Thanks.
I have an issue where it just briefly drops the connection and reconneca, sometimes it is connected but can't access internet unless I cycle wifi.
I am on the Optus, Australia S3.
I have tried it on both my access points, it can't sustain a Skype call-keeps choking up-I am hoping a new kernel or custom ROM may help-tried Omega, but had barely any phone signal.
I have sleep set to never, have tried 2.4GHz only....a bit annoying, but Ireckon it should be sorted soon. It is the only issue I have.

Try changing the security type of your router. It's often better to pub less encrypted seucurity. For instance try removing security completely for a few min and see if the problem carrys one. Then it means the problem is from the security of your router and then change the type of security to something different than it was before and should fix it. good luck

Hmmm i just changed it from WPA2 only too WPA & WPA2.. seems to be working at the moment.
I'll report back later.
Is it a bug that it doesn't support WPA2 or something?

My S3 has no problems with my O2 wireless access point (provided by BeThere), but I'm using WPA/WPA2 rather than WPA2
You are in UK as well, are you on Orange and using the "Your Wifi" app to manage the access to free BT hotspots?
No wifi issue get it exchanged.

Oh No it's not a bug! Some times different routers are not well at making a steady connections with certain devices through high encryptions. As you remarked the problem is not an issue incase of connecting to BTOpenzone and yes pretty much. This problem can often be solved without the need of even purchasing a new router. Simply head over to your router's setting page (should be something like 192.168.xxxxxx) then see if it's possible to upgrade your router's firmware.
See this link, maybe it will give you an idea of what I'm taking about

I'm assuming you're using a bt homehub of some sort?
I'm using a bt homehub 3 and I've been getting constant drop outs when downloading files over wifi.
I tried a lot of different fixes and was clsoe to throwing the phone out of the window lol
What seems to have solved the drop outs for me is using wpa instead of wpa2.
Try a factory reset?
I'm also on a BT Homehub and i haven't had a single problem, i did a factory reset as soon as i got the phone to prevent any issues.

Galaxy S3 Network Bug on reconnect [SOLVED]

Hey there fellas,
I tried to find something on the forums regarding this matter, but I found a very annoying bug/habit. I'm currently on InsertCoin 2.3.1 and tried a wide variety of modem firmwares, but when I'm in areas where I have a very bad signal (in the gym's basement, for example), I completely lose connection to my network provider from time to time. Sometimes, when my device is reconnecting, it cannot reestablish a mobile data connection. When this happens, I can't make or receive calls either, even though the signal bar shows a valid connection!
In a nutshell: After losing signal, the device seems to reconnect to the provider network, but not properly. Can't make phone calls, can't send or receive SMS, only indicator for this is the missing mobile data connection icon. Only a restart resolves this problem, but I'm not happy with restarting my phone multiple times a day!
Here are some topics that seem similar to my problem:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1782204&highlight=losing+signal
http://www.samsunggalaxys3forum.com.../1214-losing-connection-cellular-network.html
As I said, I already tried different modem firmwares, always with the same result. Can anybody help me with that matter?

Solution: Check your current CSC and make sure it's set to your specific country!
I have the same issue from when I had stock ICS and now still the same with Jellybean.

Checklist Network,
One enter settings for network APN etc .
Two correct modem for network phone and location .
Three correct CSC for network/area
Four problem on original phone providers rom and modem ???
Five might be worth investigation of RIL .

I have the same issue.. at first I thought it was due to the crappy network provider .. however I tried putting my sim in my old Nokia e5 and got decent signal strength even in areas where the s3 was unable to connect to the network. I faced the same problem even in stock ROM updated to latest version available for my region.
Any help would be much appreciay .

I used to have this problem with my stock ICS rom, exactly the same situation you described. Can't make any call after coming out from a tube.
I9300XXDLJ4 (4.1.1) is all good in reconnecting the signal.

Okay, after a few days of testing and trying to get a bad signal on purpose, it seems that setting up the CSC did the trick for me. After flashing InsertCoin, I had a French CSC. So I switched it to Germany and now the reconnect issues seem to be gone! There is a very handy CSC switching tool for free in the Playstore, but be careful, your ROM must support MultiCSC and switching the CSC wipes your internal memory!
