[Q] Can't connect to one website - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello
So I'm on this small forum, which I couldn't access when I'm not on home WiFi. It's very strange. At home I could connect no problem and the page loads instantly, but when on mobile network, it just doesn't load.
However recently the forum moved to a new domain. But now, I can't access the forum on my phone from WiFi. Other sites load instantly, but this one just sits doing nothing. I also tried connecting through Tapatalk, however it doesn't work. It just sits loading. I can access the forum fine from all computers and all other phones on the same WiFi network, and I haven't had the issue with ANY other site.
I am reluctant to post the forum's URL here due to how it's a small community which doesn't need to be flooded by traffic. If anyone really needs it for helping me, PM me.
So does anyone know what might be wrong?
Thanks.

How do i get messenger working?

Hi there,
Just picked up my S740 and i'm trying to get it working with my Three sim card. The phone and the internet work oK, but i can't seem to get MSN working. I just get a cannot connect message.
In fact, i've even connected to my wifi network and messenger still does not want to work. There must be something simple i am missing!
As an alternative, is there another messaging programme i can use instead of messenger which can access hotmail accounts?
I hope someone can help.
OK, there is something more significant that i'm missing or fundamentally wrong with this device. I've downloaded palringo and i can't connect to either msn or yahoo messenger.
Any clues?
you've not been silly enough to program a proxy into the connection settings have you?
At this stage, I'm willing to accept any suggestion, no matter how ludicrous.
But there is no proxy. Besides, i browsed to the parlingo site on the phone, downloaded it on the phone, but when i run it can't connect. Surely the proxy would have prevented internet connectivity on the whole?
Unless there is a specific proxy setting in messenger that i can't see.
I love the phone, but at this rate it's going to go straight back.
OK, i've worked out the problem.
There's nothing wrong with the phone. The problem is with the f*@#ed up 3 Mobile SIM which totally locks up the device and does not allow you to do anything. I suspected something was up when i couldnt install the newer Live file due to insufficient rights.
So for anyone searching for a similar issue, you cannot use this device with a Three mobile SIM. Unless someone knows how to unlock it?
it's cos three block a **** load of stuff. I suspect that if you have the internet addon, it may allow it.
have a check with some of the guys in the Diamond and Raphael forums, cos there's a few there that have three SIMS and had similar problems with messenger.
It's all down to three blocking everything apart from texts and calls and charging you for everything else. They have a special version of MSN messenger that either uses alternate ports, or is allowed through their packet sniffer. I'm not entirely sure how they block stuff, but i know they do.

[Q] Help. Problem with 3G Internet on Droid RAZR

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?

[Q] Qustion for Networking experts

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.

Nexus7 android 4.0 web login problems with open network

Hi. I have both a nexus 7 as well as an HTC evo. Neither device works with my work open wifi network. The common thread is that they are both android ICS devices. The network is open but requires the user to accept an agreement before use. Both devices connect to the network, but never bring up the web agreement/authorization page and eventually simply time out.
I really need to have wifi at work and will likely sell the devices if I cannot get them working. I really don't want to do have to do so. Please help!

I had the same issue on my Guingerbread, download an app called wifi fixer that worked for me every time it runs as a service in the background and keeps the wifi active.
Does anyone have a solution? I literally will sell this tablet if I can't solve this issue because I'll be working at this place for at least 3 years and need wifi access.
Is it a certificate issue? An IP issue? Please help
The issue isn't a dropped connection. It connects fine but never brings up the authentication page. Instead the phone does nothing because its dependent on wifi data once it has a full connection. *BTW i tried wifi fixer. it didn't help

Weird WiFi Problem Not opening Pages

Hey guys. So my Mate 20 Pro has the WEIRDEST issues. When connected to wifi a few web pages etc are not opening. Instagram can't refresh feed etc. But if I use my Mobile Connection or use a Proxy when connected to the wifi everything works. The same wifi connection on the pc works flawlessly. Opens every single page immediately including the ones not opening on the phone, and even plays games effortlessly.
What do you think is holding back this connection on my phone?
Sounds like you were using public WiFi and some tend to use a firewalls which block lots of different things, I was on the train the other day and they didn't allow forums
The wi-fi on my phone has been screwed since day one. It still 'works' for most things, like games and such, but web pages or links in a reddit app will mostly load (the progress bar will speed along and then grind to a halt) and then... Nothing. When I googled around, it seems like Huawei devices in general are known for this - a smattering of people have devices that are simply broken on wi-fi. Now, I haven't done extensive testing, so it may be the wi-fi devices in combination with the phone that are the problem. It isn't like I have tested this with all kinds of types of routers/bands. It certainly is strange, normally when a wi-fi signal is pooched you simply 404 or stop dead. The way my phone 'almost' loads sites makes it feel like an error checksum protocol spiraling out of control, choking the connection.
If I didn't have a lot of data with my plan, I would have attempted to return my phone.
