Stock Tab suddenly not working...(In China) - HD2 General

Hi All,
I did a quick search and didn't find anyother posts about this one...so here goes...
Up until about 2 weeks ago everything was working fine. But suddenly (1 one day working fine the next day not) the Stock Tab will not update (I always get the Connection Error msg).
Weather tab and general web surfing is working fine...
I am using a China Telecom sim and data plan, everything is working over the border in HK AND if I connect the HD2 to my laptop (in China), it will update...
weird or what...I am using stock 1.66...
Anyone got any thoughts? I am not sure if the issue is specific to the phone (as I said it is updating when connected to my laptop).
Does anyone know what IP address (or specific url) the Stock Tab is using to get the data from Yahoo? This would help me rule out the great firewall of china as a source...
Cheers
Whatever

Hi,
China ISP blocked to access many Yahoo web site. It blocked to access Yahoo Stock.
I have just come back from China. Yahoo Stock update is working normal when come back to Hong Kong. You may need other stock solution to get stock information such as Tiny Stock Manager, etc.

No Google on TMO USA GPRS?

For some reason, I cant get to ANY google website when I am using GPRS/EDGE on the Tmobile USA network.
No Google Search, Gmail, Maps etc.. Nothing. Any other website works. When I try to access a google site, it locates, and then stalls on "opening". It happens in PIE, Opera, MiniMo.
When I use Wifi, I have no problems. It only doesnt work when using GPRS.
This is on the Tmobile USA network, with a vario and stock tmo rom (1.8.10.2)
WTF?
Try this link, does it work?
http://www.google.nl/pda
I have the exact same problem. It's very weird and VERY annoying.
Sorry, for some reason this double posted. Good way to start my posting here on this forum
I've had my Tmo MDA for a month now & never have gotten anymore than "page cannot be loaded" with google. WiFi works same as yours.
Dont know if it helps but..
* I can get to google using the phone as a modem for my laptop.
* If I use the MSN proxy (go to vista live beta, search for google, choose the mobile version) this works
* I wonder what other sites dont work but should
* rom is what the unit shipped with. Registry unchanged exept for bumping the cache in a few places for speed.
lastly, check this http://forum.xda-developers.com/vie...ghlight=&sid=494a2df12b48a1e8fdca8ae0e7bfb752
I have the same problem. The thing is it worked for the first week or so. I bought my MDA the day it was available on Feb 21. Would T-Mobile have somehow blocked it a few weeks later? I will say I am running the Custom 2.17 ROM, but I have had this problem before and after the ROM upgrade.
Tried google.nl
I actually got to the google page, but searches dont work. Either does gmail, image search etc.. etc.. etc..
This is really annoying. I use gmail for all of my mail, and google for ALOT of stuff, without it. I am lost
I have had my KJam since November, used google.com/pda in the past many of times especially the GPRS, but I mainly work from home on my wifi. Today I noticed I could not get any thing to come-up on google while using the GPRS, with a timed-out error message. It sounds like we may all need to inundate tmo's wireless group with calls to get them to fix something on their network end of things.
Before we storm the castle
What locations are you in? Could it be a timing issue with whatever your access point/tower is and Google itself?
I just tried from the Eastgate neighborhood in Bellevue, WA using my T-Mobile MDA and was able to do a couple of quick test searches on Google (using the www.google.com/xhtml and /pda URLs) and completed each search successfully.

I'm in NYC.
Try Mobile Leap at http://mobileleap.net/mobile. It's a simple interface to a bunch of search engines and I was able to get a return from google using it via the phone.
Great idea markgamber! That works great!
Mine works ok. Im in Florida, usa. Thanks for the search site though...
Click the thread in BryanP's post in this thread and look on page 2. there are a few fixes you can try there.
In DC metro area and can only hit the .pda site. Called TMO and they said that it is a known issue and are trying to figure it out. It affects most google services. Call TMO and *****.. lets get this resolved.
Wow this is really an Issue, this is crazy I have to go thru all this trouble to get to goole and my gmail. Im in NYC and I have the same problem I cant get to the gmail or google, well it hits google.com/pda but it doesnt search for anything. I have to use netfront with proxy set to getmorespeed.voicestream.com:8080 to get to the sites anyone has any other solutions for this ?
Google time out issue
This time out behavior happens to me in Philadelphia and in New Orleans but works in Florida.
I actually called T-Mobile yesterday about this. I got upto a level 3 tech who exclusivly deals w/ MDA and other devices. He said this is an issue they know about and they're working on it. There was no ETA though, but he said they're seeing what the deal is.
I got 100 free minutes for complaining. Oh well.
maybe I should call too and get few hundreth minutes as I just got the service.
Something I noticed is that when I was visiting Detroit, Michigan I could not access google at all, but all other sites worked. As soon as I touched down back in Los Angeles, CA google was working just fine again.. weird but maybe something to look into?

Problems with Windows Live Messenger on 3UK

Just installed Windows Live Messenger on my Hermes with WM6 and when I try to sign in I get this message:
"There is a problem with the server. Please try again later"
I can log in using eBuddy. Is this a problem with WLM or is it 3UK?

www.3mb.co.uk/forums
I've got the same problem with my Trinity on swedish 3.
I just called their tech support, and according to them it should be working just fine...
I've had a call logged with Three for weeks now, and to be frank, their Indian call centre makes a chocolate teapot in the middle of a Sahara desert look like a positively sensible idea.
They keep coming back saying that they can’t help, because the TYTN II isn’t a “3G” phone (meaning a THREE BRANDED PHONE) (they don’t seem to understand the difference between “Three” and “3G”)
So, as a first off, (as this is the only reproducible easy error I’ve found so far), can I ask you to try going to www.zdnet.co.uk and see if you get a web page or and error. If you get the same error as me, which is “Request Error (Invalid Request)” then it will give me a bit more evidence to go and beat them up over again as H3G are ADAMANT that they do not block ports and don‘t monitor traffic, however, I believe they have a bluecoat proxy server monitoring everything, and they are notoriously easy to stuff up if you don’t know what you are doing with them.
Anyway, on to the Messenger problem…..
From my testing so far…….
Test 1
If you have even so much as a whiff of a Three SIM in the phone, it won’t connect to messenger over the Three Data connection OR over Active Sync.
If you connect it up over active sync or wireless with either the radio (i.e. phone) disabled, or without a Three SIM card, Messenger WILL connect using your alternative data connection (e.g. ADSL connection)
Conclusion - A Three SIM card some how stuff’s messenger (Seen a similar thread with a Vodafone SIM, but I don’t have one of those to test with).
Test 2
If you pop a T-Mobile or Orange SIM in the phone and perform the same tests, messenger is fine over either active sync, wireless or the Mobile operators data connection. Conclusion - This backups the previous conclusion that having a Three (H3G) SIM in there kills messenger.
(At this point, if anyone from marketing at T-Mobile or Orange is reading, if either of you will offer the same data mobile broadband data tariff (obviously in a working format) as Three on PAYG, we will ALL drop H3G quicker than that chocolate teapot will melt).
Test 3
Three are various custom versions of WindowsLive.cab knocking around and some of the earlier ones will actually connect (even with a Three SIM card installed) and actually work, however the Live Mail part then gets stuffed, as its not got all the features of the current Live, with the Push Mail, and the download options, but it does give a Conclusion that earlier Live messenger clients will connect.
The later ones (including Dutty’s ones) still fail to connect, so Dutty, if you are reading, and have any ideas, please feel free to chip in.
Test 4
MSN Mobile (NOT live version)
I found an earlier version of MSN Mobile, and this seems ok ish (i.e. messenger will connect, but again, you lose the nice push mail functionality)
Other Tests,
I’ve tried various combinations of various Radio and OS Rom’s and live.cab installs, without success.
Tests I’d like to try, but don’t have the hardware for
The one test I haven’t been able to try yet (and would like to) is seeing if messenger can be made to connect from a non Three device (i.e. my TYTN II, or your Hermes) whilst using a proper Three Connection.
i.e. Messenger on my TYTN II, going through Active Sync to a laptop, which in turn is connected to the Internet via a Three branded phone or USB Dongle. If That fails to connect, then it’s a fair conclusion that Three do in fact block ports, as the Dongle would be doing the connection. If it worked, then it would be fair to say that the actual SIM is causing the problem. Either Way, it would be really good solid evidence to go and get support to actually take notice.
Which would lead onto another Test, which is if there are any Three Users out there who it works, for, trying you SIM in either of our devices to prove if its some Three SIMS that are actually causing the problem.
(In techie speak, does anyone know if its possible from a SIM card to have a hosts file, or do port redirection ON THE SIM?)
I work up in London, so if by any chance, you are in that Area, please PM me, and maybe we can meet up to try and come up with ideas.
Hi gjbird999,
well i have done a few tests as suggested by you:
www.zdnet.co.uk returns "Request Erroe (invalid_request)"
WiFi ON/phone function OFF/3UK sim in - MSN messenger fails to connect.
WiFi ON/3UK sim removed - MSN messenger connects successfully!
WiFi ON/phone function OFF/3UK sim back in - MSN messenger connects successfully!
WiFi off/phone function ON/3UK sim in - MSN messenger fails to connect.
i guess this kinda proves that 3UK is blocking the ports either by mistake or deliberately the thing is MSN Live can connect to my hotmail mailbox ok to check email etc, just won't connect to MSN messenger.
I have tried calling the 3UK customer service for some other problems before and lets just say that it was amuzing enough to try get them to understand the problem let alone sorting it....
i hope you can get somewhere with them! keep us posted please!
In a sweidish TyTn II forum we are alot of people that gets the error msg There is a problem with the server. Please try again later..
Its been like this for 3-4 weeks..
I have Tre and its still not working
I have a Swedish Tele2 business telephone subscription and i can connect to MSN Live without any problems. However I got a nag about 30 days trial when starting MSN Live the first time, isn't MSN Live for free?
Edit: Tele2 is the part of Comviq used mainly by business users...
I get the same message on 3UK, strange that a sim cardstops you from using MSN when your connected via wifi!

well i am not entirely sure about this because I did managed to connect after reinstalling the sim with the phone boot up without the phone function on, but if i just switch the phone function off then try connect with WiFi without rebooting the phone, it won't connect
using WiFi is not so much use for me because if i can access wifi, it would probably means i am at home already! I guess i can always use the webmsn but that kinda sucks...
Three tech support is on hold, and I'm back to M$ basing at the moment. But I'll try to get into the local 3 store and see what zdnet does on their "open access" 3g Cards that are totally unresticted
hiya, just wanted to post up as im in the exact same boat, 3uk contract using my own htc hermes. having the exact same problems with live as has been described here. so good luck ! if you want any help with anything i'll be happy to help
same problem in italy!!
Ive got live installed on schaps rom -
It seems MICROSOFT now want to charge me for using it - I keep getting a message saying I can use for 30 days trial period and then will have to BUY a pass to keep going.

Anyone else getting this.

After first emailing me back saying there were no problems, and was all my fault for not setting up the phone properly M$$$$$$$ admit there MIGHT be a problem their end (or at least with their crappy software)

I'm also on 3UK. I was using windows live messenger fine on my E65 (not the crappy version they give you) up until about a month ago. and since switching to my hermes, I also haven't been able to use msn messenger.
i suspect its all down to 3UK.
i only say this because on my E65, no updates were installed, it just one day stopped working
just want to make an update, my SPV M3100 on 3UK network is now able to connect to MSN again, I haven't changed any settings on the phone at all, so i guess it is either 3UK sorted out their porting issues or MS did... just glad it is working again!!
As is mine

TMobile - Cant get emails over data connection

Hi all,
I flashed my bosses Blackstone/HTC HD with duttys 2.1 rom when it was first released...then upgraded it last week with 2.8.
He then pointed out that his emails were no longer working... there were not pulled down like when on 2.1. However, they all work over wifi just not when its over the data connection...only his ms exchange (emails from his job) actually works. Hotmail and Gmail dont.
I then thought ok, I will download the official rom from HTC...done that and left it on friday. He came in today saying its still the same.
Has anybody else heard of this problem? Any help or advice would appreciated.
Cheers
F2
Did you make sure the T-Mobile proxy is disabled after you upgraded? I know that stops the HD data connection working straight out of the box with T-Mobile in the UK.
TM
second that, disable the proxy and you'll happily be able to run Skype etc too.
Thanks very much - I can now get email!

Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server

i've just been changing a few icons on my home scree. everything has been running great, had no problems whatsoever until i tried to access the market this afternoon.
the error im getting is that i need to set up or sign into my gmail account, so i go ahead and chose sign in, then it says:
"Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server.
This could be a temporary problem or your SIM card may not be provisioned
for data services. If it continues, call Customer Care."
ive searched all day on the net for a fix, tried unmounting the sd card, removing the sim, signing in via youtube, but nothing works.
what i have noticed is that, in the accounts settings, my gmail address is missing (samsung & regular email accounts are still there).
now, i must say that while i have been messing around with stock icons, i havent touched anything google related, or indeed deleted any apk's.
the last option open to me is a hard reset, which i want to avoid like the plague after weeks of customising my phone, even titanium restore didnt fix it
does anyone have anymore ideas what i could do?
thanks
i've had an idea, but will it work?
if i create the same account on my girlfriends galaxy ace, would i be able to transfer those account settings to my phone? if so, where are they located
i've just noticed as well, that i'm not getting any emails from my other accounts either
please....really need some help here guys
You could always re-flash your firmware to get the gmail icon and all the other settings back.I know you said you don't want to but if its disappeared then its a good way to get it back at least and with a nandroid and /or titaniun back-up its not that much work to put all your settings back.
ok, reflashing the firmware didnt work. the problem is definitely with servers as i cant add any more email accounts, all are getting server errors.
so....i ask this, what file holds this information? and if i can copy this from my girlfriends phone, will it work?
in fact, does anyone know ALL of the google apk's that should be installed, i have a feeling one is missing/corrupted
surely someone on here must know the answer to my last post??
I was having data issues with many different modems on my carrier but found today that KE7 modem solved my problem with solid download/upload speeds. worth a shot.
Have you frozen something or deleted something with titanium that you shouldn't have?
Try calling your operater to check if you have connection problems or not.After all the warning did say to call.The fact that it just happened suddenly is quite surprising and re-flashing should have put back everything that was missing.
Hi Taco1916,
Did you find a solution? I have exactly the same problem and I've tried all suggestions without success.

PlanetP,
I actually have a similar problem, and I see that you are also using China Unicom. I arrived in Kunming from Hong Kong last Sunday, and ever since Wednesday, Gmail suddenly stopped syncing, and Market does work. Market gives me the "no connection" thing. The weird thing is everything worked for two-three days after arriving in Kunming.
I've restored to previous nandroid backups, I've reflashed a fresh LeoMar Revolution rom (with everything wiped), and still cannot sign into my Google account..
My internet (via prepaid China Unicom data sim) and hotmail still works, XDA app, engadget all works..
I am going back to HK tomorrow, I will then find out if this is a China thing, or else...

Connection Error
I have been accessing gmail/market/maps on China mobile for past 3 months ... but for last couple of days I am getting Error connecting to server message... does it something to do with China mobile connection or something to with the setting... I have wiped the mobile couple of times and installed new rom also. Even then it is not solved? any soultion
Seems like this is a problem on both networks just recently, for me, it was just four days ago.
I have been in and out of china the past three months with my s2 without problems. I wonder why we are all met with this problem.
Now that you brought it up, google maps doesn't work either. it seems to detect my location, the arrow swivels around, but the map its not displayed, just the grid.
I really hope this is a temporary thing...

I've recently (2 days ago actually) upgraded my firmware to 2.3.5 (from 2.3.3) and I'm getting the same connection error when trying to add a google account. I'm pretty sure this is related to the china firewall as all the google services work correctly ever since the day I bought the phone.
In fact, I have tried all the alternatives that you can think of: using wifi to add google account does not work, using youtube to add account does not work, using market enabler to fake my sim card provider does not work, factory reset does not work, downgraded back to my original 2.3.3 firmware does not work. The only plausible option left now is to try and add a L2TP VPN account to my phone. If this happens to work (which I'm pretty sure should) then it means china has resumed blocking all the google mobile services.
I'll keep you guys updated in a few days once I find a good vpn service provider.
UPDATE: I have got a reliable vpn service going on and am now able to connect to google services and sign in to my account. Note that you'll need to take out your unicom sim card and connect to wifi+vpn to have this work. If you have a sim card inserted, you'll have to try the youtube trick with vpn connected.
So I have proved that this is, in fact, related tol china blocking access to all the google mobile ports.
So the china firewall has blocked google mobile services before?
I never knew this since I recently switched from a hk blackberry with a roaming plan in china the past three years when I traveled in and out of china.
Do you think it has to do with this weeks anniversary?

Got the same problem after have bought a GS2 from Hong Kong.
Try Wifi/China Mobile internet but nothing works was wondering if it didnt come from my rom...
Same problem, wish I'd seen this thread early, as I 've just wiped my phone, lost **** loads of data re-installing firmware, stock rom etc, re-setting, sim card in/out, cannot try the YouTube Trick as China won't allow You Tube and still can't add the google accoutn as it says it can't establish a reliable connection.
Jesus, what the feck is going on ?, anybody got any information on whether this is actually just China ?
This was working fine up until a few days ago, I have been in Guangzhou for past 2 years, and had Galaxy S2 working fine here for last 6 months, and now this ?
Wow, that sucks for you, I feel for ya, I have since rooted my phone so I can make bootable back ups.
I am heading back to hong kong tonight, so I will update you guys tonight when I get out of the firewall.
When did this problem start happening for you guys?

Hi Chief,
For me 3 days ago, it really is a complete pain in the A$%e...
At first I thought my Data Plan had been cancelled with China Telecom, but even after re-booting, hard reset without sim and just connecting to the WiFi in the company which is obviously Chinese, it still will not add the Google Account so no GMAIL or Market Place anymore...
Still trying to see what else is shafted, but also my phone looks naff now as I cannot re-download Go Launcher EX from Market Place as cannot get on it...
That is around the same time as mine, I think I lost connection last wednesday. I hope this isn't forever, especially for you guys that are in china long term.
Had this happened before? I wonder if this is across all phones with android platform.

Market stuck "Downloading"

Hi, I just got a brand new Xperia Play and am loving it so far, aside from one infuriating issue.
When I'm on WIFI I simply cannot download anything from the market, I've been messing with this for the past 2 hours, things I've tried:
Clearing app cache of several apps related to downloading
Toggling WIFI / 3G
Restarting phone
Updating to latest firmware
Reset to factory settings
Play with router wireless settings
Reinstall router firmware
The only thing that did something is clearing the cache of the download manager, after I did that I was able to install one thing from the market. But it only worked once, it's not working anymore.
I'm also unable to play youtube video's when using wifi.
Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening? My phone is brand new, so it can't be something I did with it.
Also, up till today I had an HTC Magic, which did not have the problem on the same wireless network. It did have occasional "download starting" hiccups, but nothing like this.
Any advice?
Thanks!

Edit2: False alarm, still not working.. seems to come and go
You have the weirdest problem.. Did you check your router to see if it's generating enough ip addresses for all your wireless devices?
What is the distance between you and your router and what kind of router is it? I believe the play has a weaker wifi radio, so it might be dcing too often to stream and download.. Try standing closer to the router to see if there is a difference first.
Sent from my XPlay using XDA App.
I'm right next to the router and the web interface shows a full signal, so it can't be that. I can also see in the web interface that an ip address was assigned.
I've tried setting the phone as the DMZ and disabling the router firewall. No luck with that either.
I also tried upgrading my router firmware from Tomato to DD-WRT and doing a factory reset, but again .. no luck.
I'm running out of ideas, it seems the problem originates from Android and not my router, but I can't think of anything else I could try. Could it be an issue with the Android network in my location?
Omfg.. 3/4 hours later I finally got it, and this one wasn't suggested anywhere else so hopefully this will help some others in the future.
I had to go into wireless settings on my phone, click menu, go to advanced and then manually configure the network connection. Make sure your router has reserved an ip for you and use that one, otherwise you might end up trying to use one that is already in use.
After that it all seems to be working for me (so far). Fingers crossed that it won't stop working again.
Yea you couldn't find the answer anywhere else because it seemed like it was an isolated incident. Gratz for figuring it out though.
Sent from my XPlay using XDA App.
Next day, working fine in the morning. Couple hours later and it's back to getting stuck on "Downloading". Tried toggling static ip with no luck.
God this is incredibly annoying. I'm guessing it'll magically start working again at some point, and then stop working again later.
From what I've found through google this bug has been around since the very first version and not a single solution has been offered by google. Seriously this is ridiculous
Hi,
I'm having exactly the same issues.... Normal browsing, etc works fine on WIFI but market just wont work on WIFI.
I dont even see the device hitting my router when I try to download thru the market. Other network connections are seen by my router.
I wonder if it might be linked to the the fact that I'm running a UK rom on my device. When I'm using my data connection off Rogers, it actually does a RMNET to the British government... So we are seen as downloading from the UK.. Just an idea...
It's annoying as hell....
I was going to say download speedtest.net app when you can and see what it yields... but I see you've got it figured out. Nice!

Interesting, so you're saying that google somehow classifies us as UK users, which causes problems when switching to WIFI, which is not classified as a UK connection?
It would make sense, seeing as it seems to start working again after a while.. which could mean that whatever info google is caching on us is expired and it finally adopts the WIFI connection info.
Still, I have doubts about that.. I mean wouldn't a LOT more Rogers users be complaining about this?
The only persons that would be complaining are people like us running UK roms but our WIFI is coming from a canadian provider. In my case Videotron.
So when i<m using 3g data, i'm seen as coming from the UK because of the RMNET connection and when using WIFI i'm seen as Canadian... with a uk rom.
I've read that the market DOES have regions... might not be 100% correct on that but it might be part of my issue.
Mine BTW, never works anymore even after clearing cache, FC the market, etc...
lol i got the opposite problem i have trouble downloading stuff from the market using 3g but works perfect using wifi
not really an issue since im not an app whore
Its not a issue on play all phones has that. Simply log in to your Talk app then try again. (launch Gtalk app and login)
Thanks, but i had already tried that.
Reinstalled the UK rom yesterday, and even after a clean install market still doesnt work on WIFI even tho my WIFI works for browsing, accessing my computer thru RDP, etc.

This only works for some people.
My market has been working for a day now (I didn't do anything to fix it), I'm expecting it to stop working any moment. Fingers crossed.
Edit: Aaand there we go.. stopped working again. Sigh.
Got the same issue both on my Nexus S (Videotron) and (which is strange), on My Motorola Xoom Tablet which only has wifi, no 3g !!
Edit: If I connect my tablet thru my cell phone (wifi tethering) I have no problem with market
ok so me and mobidoy are both on Videotron...
Naatan I see you are in quebec... Videotron also?
Starting to believe it migh be an issue with them
hey
im in videotron too and since 4 days i cant watch youtube on youtube app and my download on market stay stuck in green bar!! i have a toshiba thrive android 3.1!!!!!
when i connect with a 3g router or on the wi fi in my city everything work again
so it clear that videotron is the problem!!!!
Had the same problems
First time hard reset fixed it.
Second time by magic, sorry. I was about to send the phone to repairs
I used the XDA App to post this, what did you use?
I've been having the exact same problem as you and can't seem to find a way to solve this. I just purchased a Galaxy Tab 10.1, WIFI only, and at home nothing will download from the Android market. It just gets stuck. Youtube videos also dont work via the app.I tried it out at a friends and everything worked flawlessly.
At home, I also have Videotron internet. I just called them, and tried to explain to their customer service but obviously they were quick to blame it on anything else they could. They said they did not block any ports either.
I read a thread about some vodafone users in the UK having a similar problem than us:
Edit: It wont let me post an external link because I'm a new user, but the post is on androidforums.com and is titled "ANDROID MARKET download/update problem via WiFi"
It seems their problem was fixed after calling Vodafone.
I'm also inclined to point fingers at Videotron since its odd we are all customers of theirs.
Just called Videotron technical support, they have an open ticket about it since yesterday morning and are actualy working on the issue !! There is hope !!
