hey guys i hope you can help. Heres my problem:
the preinstalled browsers like opera and IE cant use my internet connection (gprs). it seems like they dont habe the permission to use it because if i hit the "enter" key there nothing happening in the IE. In opera there coming that its a network problem.
In th R1 firmware it was like this: i entered an adress, i hit enter, on the top of my screen a bubble popped up telling me the gprs connection is established. in R2 firm it just does nothing. theres coming no bubble.
Anybody know how to fix this? it's pretty mad to have an high-end business phone which cant connect to the internet!
Check the internet settings!
Or set them manually - call your operator.

It is definately a Problem with Windows Mobile! The Beta Version of Mozilla's Fennec can connect to the internet. But its so damn slow that i dont wanna use it! So, any solutions ?
There is an other browser called Skyfire. I use that one all the time and I love it. I think it is stable, fast and good looking. You even can go to YouTube with it. Give it a try!
Greets!
back again. now i know why the programs cant access the internet, but i dont know how to solve it they try to connect to a VPN connection which is not existing. Also i cant set up a UMTS connection.
here's a screenshot
I have a stock Samsung Vibrant. It connects to my home wifi network just fine and is very fast.
At my school we have to register the mac address' of devices we have on their Clean Access servers. I have registered many devices that work fine.
I registered the mac address of my Vibrant, and it can connect to the wifi, but it will not load a web page. Does anyone have any idea of what is wrong.
I also registered my roommates Vibrant. His does not work either.
I work at the Schools Tech Support so I have access to register and edit my phone on their Clean Access servers.
Does anyone have any solutions?
are you using WPA/WPAv2 or WEP + RADIUS authentication? Does your vibrant obtain an IP address successfully? Can you ping the default router?
The wifi that works at my apartment is WPA2.
The wifi at school is an open network. I can fully connect to their wifi.
Status Connected
Speed 48Mbps
Signal Strength Good

IP address (a real IP address)
Im going out on a limb here. I am going to say its the Clean access and your "open network". I assume on your schools computer you use your student ID and some password. Your phone would need the same thing if that is the case. I know at my school, iphones are the only phones that can access our clean access. If its not the case then i am sorry.
my school runs clean access and it works fine. but they have two networks a guest and a login. i use the guest cause i don't want to waste the time to login. but i can try it on monday. typically with linux (i.e. android) you have a web portal and have to agree to some antivirus bs by clicking a button and that's it (and login for the non guest network). one thing i have noticed, though, is that typically i have to turn wifi on, connect to the network, try to load a page, it doesn't work, then i turn wifi off then immediately back on and try to load a page and it takes me to the login/terms portal page.

You should remove the IP from post. Anyways, it seems like the handshake is good. Note down the address of redirected terms and conditions page you get when trying to go online from a laptop. Then enter the same address in vibrant's browser once you are connected through Wifi ( or set it as homepage) and see if that lets it through.
Probably an issue with Android's lack of native NTLM support. AFAIK this is still unresolved. Have you tried using Fennec rather than the stock browser? I've heard you can authenticate properly using it.

interesting. i use dolphin hd and it works for the clean access web authentication page.
Could be, if your school does not have a guest account login for devices, that you are getting on the segregated network because CA cannot verify the "cleanliness" of your device. When I setup CA it verified patch levels and such on the non-guest network, so unless CA comes out with a Android client/access list, it may not work.

except then it wouldn't allow osx or linux. clean access requires an app for windows to verify service pack and av and whatever, but for linux and osx it doesn't. it wouldn't be able to (at least for linux).

That is correct but it can ID the operating system and has exceptions for those flavors ...
Hey it's me again.
I don't think it's an android thing because I had my G1 on the servers.
Normally what happens if you aren't registered on Clean Access is, if you open a web browser, you will be automatically redirected to an authentication page where you put in your school ID and password. This would work fine and allow me to get on the wifi, but it never came up on the web browser, it just tries to load the page for awhile and goes to a 'Page cannot be displayed' page.
Also I have tried using different browsers, including Dolphin HD.
If I can just get to the authentication page even it will be fine, I could work with that.
Also the school does have a guest login, but you have to get to the authentication page, and I wouldnt want guest access since it limits time, bandwidth, and features.
That is exactly what I said my last reply...Try putting https infront of your authentication URL, and make sure the java-script etc. is on in your browser...Try clearing cache and hit refresh as well. Also, see what happens if you set that URL as homepage...

did you try turning on wifi, wait for it to connect, try to load a page (any page because it will redirect you), wait for it to time out, pull down the notification bar, turn wifi off, turn it back on and then reload the page? i know it sounds dumb, but this is the only way i've got it to work at my school and it works every time...

to what flavors? i'm guessing android will show as linux since it's based off a linux kernel. more than likely it checks for windows, and if false goes to the default linux/osx page because to clean access those aren't threat os's.

they don't have the authentication URL on their homepage so I don't know what it is, it should automatically redirect me to it.
Also when I connect to wifi, try to load a page, let it time out, turn off wifi, turn it back on and connect again, and then refresh the page.. nothing happens it times out again.
Ok so I did find out the authentication page URL. Typed it into my phone. I had high hopes when a page saying "You are being redirected to the network authentication page. If you are not redirected automatically, then please click HERE".
Anyway it did redirect me, to a "Web page not available"... etc.
In the default browser it gave me the error... "Data connectivity problem. A secure connection could not be established". umm wtf?
Can you communicate with other protocols/ports? I used to be able to exploit a bug with our school's CCA servers where I could just connect unauthenticated and use SSH. (Maybe it was a feature?)
I can't use any other web protocols.
Bump. Okay. I've figured out how to do this . '
it's a t mobile vibrant either kernel or rom problem. My phone connected the very first time I tried to use it at an argosy site, then never ever ever again.
so. I used wifi manager to find out what the ip, gateway, subnet mask, and dns 1 and 2 were. I went to settings, wifi, options key to go to advanced options, from there selected static ip and entered all the info I gathered
bam! ! Connected every time.
Oh and btw, the reason I say its a tmobile vibrant rom or kernel problem is that on fusion, Eugene's and bionix final, I was able to connect right away, every time . And on my f friends att fascinate and verizon captivate, they never had to enter the static ip like I did. They connected right away every time . Yet everyone I know that had s vibrant kept having the same proble. m i did .
Tmobile. What a piece of ****. Anyway I figured nobody had this figured out so I'd jump in.
Hope this helps out some people. GL
This is really strange. My apps can't connect to the internet when they're open, but when they're closed they have no problem. For example, my News, Email, and Finance apps show updated, current information, but when I open them they say that they can't connect. How do I fix this?

if your internet status says limited, windows only reads that and then tells the app what do to.
if your connection is limited, thats why they arent connecting
Are you using a proxy server or VPN? There are known issues with Metro apps and VPNs

I actually just tried connecting to a VPN and the connection worked! I've found that Windows 8 is somehow blocking Metro connections on private networks, but allowing them on public ones. I fixed the problem by setting my connection to Public.
I just got build number MHC19Q today but this problem has actually been going on for about a week. I am using chrome and I can load any webpage except for google.com. It will just start to show the loading bar and stop 1/4 of the way. So i can't type a word or phrase and search for it since chrome is not loading google.com. I am using the most updated version of chrome (49.0.2623.105) and I even tried using Chrome Beta...same result. I cannot access Google.com. I can access gmail.com but nothing that has google in the web address. Any ideas?
Things I have tried all ready...clear cache and data. I tried to uninstall and reinstall. I tried Chrome Beta. I also tried restarting the phone. None worked. I even tried using a different browser (Firefox) and I get the same result, I cannot load google.com.

Ok, so after doing all sorts of things, I finally found out that it is a wifi issue. If i turn off my wifi, I can access google now just fine. I can do searches and everything. However, the minute I turn on wifi again, it stops working again. I am 100% it is not a router or wifi issue itself as any other website search it comes up fast and I have tried it in different locations with different routers...all the same, google now wont work with wifi on. Any one else having this issue?
Might be a possible DNS issue with your Wi-Fi. To check:
1.) Go to Settings>Wi-Fi Network then long press your Wi-Fi network name on the list.
2.) Select "Modify Network" then check whether you have "DHCP" or "Static". Likely the " Static" option is chosen as the issue occurs across different wi-Fi networks.
3.) If indeed "Static" is chosen scroll down until you see "DNS 1" and "DNS 2". Make sure you are using the correct DNS servers. Or you may try using public DNS servers like OpenDNS or Google. Save changes then try again to connect via Wi-Fi.
Anyone know why it is that Chrome for android bypasses OpenDNS settings. I've applied the DNS on the router, other browsers get filtered however chrome just dosnt seem to work. Can anyone shed any light on this?
i use open dns on router too and chrome works just fine on my fathers tablet.check if your wifi settings for your network are set to DHCP. if it's static then maybe you have set different dns on your device so your phone bypass the router settings. this is the only thing i can thing right now. oh also try to clear chrome data and cache from app manager.

Well simply put I was inputting dns address into the wrong place on the router.
And also bought a static IP from my provider

Ah yeah that must be a pain. Static costing me like ￡5 a month so not a big price. Although I've heard its a lot easier to get "hacked" when on things like Xbox online.

for me my carrier sells static ip for 6 € per month.I don't think that static ip will made you open to attacks.The truth is if someone know your ip can try to attack you but your router has firewall so what the possibilities? Also close UPnP thats more unsecure to that stuff
