The proxy works fine for using with the browser, facebook twitter etc but i dont seem to get any notifications whilst it is in use ie: connected to wifi all day at work but i get no email, fb, whatsapp msgs, as soon as i turn off wifi and am back on data connection everything comes through at once. I can use al these apps fine though through the wifi. E-mails occasionally come through on there own accord, but more often than not they dont.
Anyone else have this/got a fix?

Ive checked like crazy in my settings...
Someting must be wrong because when i check email in my rose (its a hotmail account) it refuses to use the wifi connection. Even if im in an area where i have NO signal on the cell, it tries to connect with gprs/3g and then failes since theres no signal, but i have signal on wifi of course..
But if i turn phone off in comm manager, then it works over wifi!
its strange because i only notice this behavior with the email, not when using internet explorer or updating weather..
No one else has this problem??
Would be very happy if someone had a fix for this..
In Comm Manager, Data Connection is always on?
I might have an answer to this.
When using Activesync to connect to an Exchange server where push email is switched on (rather than checking for email every X minutes), the only connection used will be the phones data connection (so GPRS/3G etc) and WiFi will NOT be used. This is normal operation for Windows Mobile and Activesync.
If you set the phone to check for mail every X minutes and wifi is available, it will use that instead.
In both of the above cases, other connections (such as browsing etc) will happily use wifi if it is available.
Now I am not sure how hotmail is set up these days but I do know it delivers emails as they arrive so would put $10 on it being the same thing as when using Exchange.
What does "data connection" do?
Hi,
Weird problem. I had to change the security on my wifi router today. Not a problem really I thought and everything connects to it fine with the new access code apart from the browser on my Hero. I'm running Modaco 2.5.1. Everything else on the phone seems to be connecting fine, Facebook, Market etc at the speeds I expect over wifi but not the browser.
So far I've rebooted the phone. Cleared the cache, then cleared all data using Manage Applications and still nothing. Browser will connect fine over GPRS if wifi is turned off.
Does anyone have any ideas??
We have a vibrant and a captivate.. When connected via wifi at home, the market and gmail will not connect, but both phones access the internet just fine otherwise.. They connect fine to the market and gmail using 2G or 3G, or other wifi networks..
Can anyone let me know what settings I might adjust on the router to allow connections to gmail or the market on these phones?
Anyone? I just came back to visit my parents and my market and google apps have been working great until I got back here.. Same problem again...
Seems like for some reason you're not able to connect to Google sever on your network.

Exactly.. How can I change my router settings to allow this? I have 3 Android phones on the network, and I can't get any of the three to connect to any google apps through this network...
very frustrating!

Hi
I'm not sure if it's Android or Transformer prime thing.
My google data (gmail, gcal) syncs properly and immediate when i'm @home with my wifi network, but refuses to automatically sync at the office wi-fi network.
The office network is freely available to the device, i can browse the net without any problems.
Can figure it out why the sync doesn't work.
I have noticed the same issue on mine except my home network sometimes has the issue too. I have resolve it by disabling the sync and then enabling it again. This method works for a little while then it seems to go into the no new notification mode. I have to manually refresh in gmail to get my new mail to show up. It is annoying. I even send test emails to both my phone and tablet, but it will not ccome through until it feels like it or unless I manually update. My xoom does not do that.
I have a sort of similar thing. All I know is that I'll be delivering pizzas while tethered. As soon as I get home, and turn off the tethering, my tablet connects to the home WiFi and gets one or more notification noises as it if wasn't syncing the same way when tethered. The oddity is that it doesn't know I'm on a mobile connection so it isn't trying to save bandwidth. I suspect there is something in the security or ports that makes it's connections to the home network different than when tethering, or when you are at work.
I can't speak to the issue regarding tethering, but for those of you having issues at the office, this is most likely due to firewall rules. I work for a cybersecurity software company, and have been fighting for them to address this as both my phone and prime suffer from the same thing.
If you have a good relationship with your IT/Corporate security people, try bringing it up with them.

do you know if google sync services uses other than 80/443 port numbers?
Not only did I notice this same thing happening I also noticed emails I had are disappearing when not on home network and Wi-Fi tethering with my phone this is weird...... they disappear from my gmail application......
Hi there everyone
I am having a problem with the wifi. I am connecting to my modem with the wifi, it seems to be connected, the wifi icon is green but I can not surf in the internet and i can not use the other applications that use internet (like ; whatsapp, viber, twitter etc...) For ex, While connected to the internet on wifi i try to text a message on whatsapp, but my message can't be sent. Then i turn off the wifi and turn on the 3g, then my message can be sent. It is obviously about wifi, because 3g works fine. I had philzkernel and JB 4.1.2 xwlsd on my phone. I thought that the problem occurs because of the kernel or the firmware. So I made a superwipe ( formatting system,data,cache,emmc etc..) then flashed a different firmware(4.1.2 XWLSS) and there is no other kernel or root flashed. Now, the phone is like I bought the first day, but still got the same problem of wifi. What can i do?
