Hello guys! I’ve got XT910 since December 2011, everything was OK, but few days ago something happened and my 3g Internet doesn’t work anymore. At first I thought that it problem with my cellular communication operator, but I checked my SIM-card on another phone and found that 3g Internet works properly. Another 2 reasons that makes me think that problem is in my phone, it’s:
First, I still have a symbol of 3G connection on top of display, and when I make request a page from browser the arrows on this symbol start highlight in both direction, but browser says “Web page not available”. And second, sometimes I use Orbot for anonymous browsing, and yesterday I found that Orbot can connect to server, I checked Orweb browser and I found that Internet works on it as before. I install Proxymator, and redirect all my internet traffic through Orbot, and all browsers and applications that require Internet connection start work properly. But I didn’t find the root cause why I couldn’t connect to 3g internet direct. Maybe somebody can help me? Sorry for my English.
Sounds like something is blocking it. Have you installed anything recently?

Hi all,
I got problem with internet connection on my HD2 (ROM 1.48). There are 2 ways I connect to the internet - WIFI and GPRS. GPRS connection works fine - I can download and read e-mails, make backups with MyPhone, update weather information, etc. But when I connect to the internet with WIFI, there are only 2 things I can do. I can browse web pages with Opera and update Twitter messages. But I can´t download e-mails, make backups, update weather information, etc. When I try to update or backup something, there is connection error (through that connection between phone and router is fine and web pages are running).
It seems to me like most of applications want to connect to internet via GPRS only. Is there any way to set up (or check) the phone to connect to the internet via WIFI when it is turned on?
Thanks for any advice
Sorry cant help but agree - it would be fantastic if there was some way of knowing / controlling when it used GPRS data and when it uses wifi. When wifi availabe obviously would rather use that than be charge a small firtune for data.
Any one out there about to help with this??
Internet browsing
Ditto. I can - after HUGE effort - connect WiFi but I cannot browse the internet using either Opera or IE. 2 year old Nokia connected and browsed literally within 2 secs! Also, the phone keeps connecting via GPRS all the time even with data connections off. Can anyone help? Thanks PS I know it's unproductive & forgive me, but I have to get this off my chest: this is the worst cellphone I've ever owned. Bluetooth doesn't work, internet doesn't work, handsfree car kit doesn't work. Does anything work?

correction, YOUR Bluetooth doesn't work, YOUR internet doesn't work, YOUR handsfree car kit doesn't work.
Get it exchanged. (if they genuinely dont work)
@others, go to settings menu all settings connection connections advanced select networks.
there are two dropdowns, in teh top one should be the name of your mobile data, , this is what automatic progs will use to connect to the web, in teh bottom one it should be 'the internet' (or sometimes 'my work network'), meaning they use wifi if available, and data if not.
(At least thats how they should work....)
If you set the top one the same as teh bottom one, nothing should try to use mobile unless wifi is not connected.
Could be a proxy problem? some operators set up a proxy, which can screw with connections.
samsamuel: Thank you for your advice. I´ve tried it - in both dropdowns I got "my work network", but no success.
I´ve found something interessting. When I turn on YouTube client (using WIFI), I can´t play videos. That should be ok when I got problem with internet connection. But YouTube client shows on the welcome screen preview of today´s added videos. So the question is why should application download preview of video, but it can´t play the video? I´m a little bit confused
Thanks for the suggestion, but I had tried that already and it did not work. I don't think it is just my cellphone. There are many comments re the HD2 that make it clear that it does not work with a Parrot handsfree carkit, Motorola S9 headset etc, and the 2 earlier posts reveal problems using WiFi too. It seems to be problematic on many fronts. I cannot even connect it using Windows Mobile via an USB port! And while I appreciate all suggestions it seems to me that this model is a (very expensive) lemon and frustrates huge numbers of owners. I find it odd that a 2 year old Nokia N95 can connect and browse instantly and a 'smart phone' doesn't work at all. I find it to be very gimmicky. I don't need twitter, facebook etc. I need voice dial, good PC software (like Ovi and PC suite) and bluetooth that works etc. The HD2 has none of this, but great graphics of a windscreen wiper, exactly the sort of pointless gimmick that reveals that the designers were interested in making a toy and not a useful phone.
I suggest you try and install "HTC_Wi-Fi_onDemand_by_Krocher". This program will always use wifi when available and stop the GPRS from connecting and will also keep your wifi on a stand-by. Please do read through the thread as you have to make sure that no programs using wifi are activated when you want it to be off. For me it solved several problems with wifi.
Second thought is to upgrade to one of the much more stable and already tweaked OS's. There are quite a lot out and you'll find everything about that on this forum as well.
Last thought, if it does not work it must be something to do with either the settings or the OS version as for others it works absolutely fine. These are complicated phones that, much like computers, must be set and tweaked to the correct settings in order to get the best out of them. If you just want a "buy and run" phone this is not the one.
Success,

Hello guys,
As you can see from the thread's title my phone can conect to any WiFi router(in WiFi menu it says it's conected) but Market doesn't work and my browser(Dolphin and stock browser too) says that "Tha page is unavailable". I also tried other internet using applications, none of them works.
But they all work when I enable 3G. So the problem is only with WiFi.
I'm on mik's CM7 v6.5.7 with franco,Kernel 19.4.
I did a data wipe, then reflashed all the stuff and the problem didn't solve. I also tried fserve's gbs v15 kernel.
Any ideas? I am sorry if this is a NOOb question, I've benn searching the answer for three days and didn't find anything...
EDIT: The problem is not the router. I tried to conect to the internet at severeal places: resataurants, caffes and public hotspot and none of the internet using apps does work.
Dumb questions first.
Can anything else connect to the internet through the router? ie is the router connected to the internet?
Can you access files on a server attached to the router, using an app like ES File Explorer?
Pfff....
The problem is not the router. I tried to conect to the internet at severeal places: resataurants, caffes and public hotspot and none of the internet using apps does work.
Password needed to connect probably or something like that. Or, the device connect to the router, but it got have permission from the router owner to use bandwidth.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
All the WiFI networks were OPEN, so none of them needed password. And my phone says that it's conected(the wifi icon on the statusbar shows this too) . Do you think that in a restaurant you aren't allowed by the router owner to use the WiFi network's bandwidth? That would be really funny.
Slightly less dumb question next
Have you tried using something like Wifi Connect to log onto the wifi, so that you can access the wider internet? My phone shows lots of "open" wifi downtown, but I still need to connect (log in) to use them.
I must admit, I'm a NOOB...
I didn't try that, I don't even know what it is.I think there is a misunderstanding. I don't have a router at home, I only tried at public hotspots and some restaurants, so I wasn't able to se or customize the routers.
EDIT: Oh, I know what you are talking about.
There wasn't any site on which was written I should log in to ise that network. It should have worked without that.
Wifi Connect is an app - download from the market and see if it helps you out
OK, I will try it tomorrow, since now I'm not able to do it. Thank you in advance.
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!
As usual, I am experiencing a very strange problem. My GT7510 is currenty running the Task "beginning" ICS ROM. It works great when I am at home. When I go on the road, I sometimes experience a problem where nearby open WIFI networks that I know are working do not display on my Tab. I can connect to these networks on my laptop, iPhone or my wife's iPad but they are invisible on my Tab.
The latest occurance was at a hotel that offered free WIFI. In order to access the network, I first have to open a browser and provide an access code. This is easily done on the other devices but since I cannot even see the network on my Tab, I cannot connect so the browser can give me the login page.
I have Googled the problem until my fingers are ready to bleed but have not found anyone with the same problem. Does anyone have any thoughts on what could be going on?.
Now, having posted this problem, I can tell you that I stumbled on a work-around but I have no idea why it works. Just for fun, I activated the "personal hotspot" on my Jailbroken iPhone. This signal immediately showed up on my Tab. At the same time, the hotel signal suddenly appeared as well and I was able to connect to that signal.
I am hopeful that someone can shed some light on this strange problem for me. Thanks in advance.
Bump! I could really use some help with this problem.
Bob
So guys,
I don't know if everyone knows "fon", but it is a global wifi conection.
It has a public wifi network and we have to login to it by browser.
The problem is that on the Oneplus X the login screen doesn't even appear. If i try automatic login by the app i lose the wifi connection.
Anyone has the same problem?
Any thoughts?
Cheers
I've tried wifi connections via Starbucks and Transit (MTA Wifi) as well as my school wifi and they all require opening a browser to login, They worked fine for me. But I can't seem to detect my Gym's wifi, idk if it's my phone thats not detecting it or that the wifi isn't even there since I didn't have a buddy to confirm whether or not it was available. But the other scenarios worked fine.

nope, dont have xposed installed.
I have a similar issue.
My previous device was a Nexus 4, and I used to get a notification that prompted for a login when ever it connected to public wi-fi (was the wi-fi icon with an exclamation mark next to it). Didn't need to open a browser.
No it may be that was a stock Android feature, but it worked really well.
On my OPx I have to open a browser and type a url before it will redirect to me to any wi-fi login page. It doesn't work if I refresh an existing browser page - I just get a message saying it can't connect. During all of this however, the wi-fi icon shows the 'connected' state. It's the one thing that really annoys me about this device, but very few people seem to mention it.
Yes. I think it's strange. Maybe we are the only one that use public Wi-Fi?
I've got same problem. Very annoying. Considering that free hotspot in our town has such login (actually just form with single button to connect), SSID same all over town and it automatically connect as soon it see such network and losing sync/connection to all background applications like messengers.
I'm currently battling with OnePlus Support about this issue, they somehow not fully understand issue :crying:
Well, maybe they don't have hot-spots in China or something... But we don't see so many people saying that they have this problem.
That's why oneplus don't care about it also
Hi, i have the same problem with autentication web page. The phone connect to network but the autentication page don't work.
Yes that is the problem i was talking about!
But i don't care now, thanks to MasterAwesome.
Goodbye oxygen for ever!
