I am currently using Mdeejay_FroYo_Revolution_v._1.6_S3.1 on T-Mobile in the UK.
I am having trouble logging in to some websites, I have tried the obvious such as making sure cookies are enabled and deleting all cookies to try again.
When I try to log in the browser accepts that I have logged in (on that have them I see a confirmation page saying 'thankyou for logging in') then returns to the same login page I was on before.
I saw another thread with a guy who had this problem and he solved it by adjusting his APN settings, but I have tried the automatic setup that is there on rom install and also the standard t-mobile setting you can find by googling or searching this site.
Anyone have any idea what could be causing this? I'm about to try some various other browsers to see if they have the same problem.

I'm an avid facebook.com user and often liked to hook up to m.facebook.com using my old Magician. Now I have a Trinity, have set up the wireless correctly etc, but it won't accept my login details. It just returns to the login screen with my details still sat there. I've tried other sites, that don't require logging in and the connection is set up fine. While I accept there could just be a problem with facebook mobile, I don't use any other sites where I have to login with specific details, so can't test this possibility....
Has anyone else experienced any difficulties with ie on this phone?
Opera
Have since installed Opera Mini and it logs in fine... So can only assume internet explorer has an issue with sending data..?
Now to get msn on this thing... Still kinda missing the Magician, but for the wireless LAN...

By any chance have you disabled cookies? That's a very common cause of login problems. I use several sites that require login and they work fine.
Cookies
No, cookies enabled. Tried clearing them too, but still just loads up the same page each time...
Must have been a site issue, as it's all now working fine...
I need to clear my cookies because I can't log into a particular website due to a cookie problem.
Can anyone tell me how to do this on my Vario II?

Hi.
In PIE go to Menu>Tools>options>security
Mike
Cheers. I tried that and it cleared my cookies (well, I presume that it did since I had to re-enter my log-in details at the problem website) but it didn't solve my problem.
FWIW my problem site is Facebook - or the mobile Facebook site m.facebook.com. When I try to log-in it just loops the log-in screen. Don't suppose anyone else has had this problem?

Yes - I went through the process and found the same issue. I think their mobile site is perhaps for WAP browsers though I could be wrong.
I successfully managed however ,to log on using PIE and the full site i.e. http//facebook.com and it works fine.
If you really want the mobile version - that I guess is laid out without so many graphics etc I suppose you need to contact them. If it's because it's a wap site then you can download a wap browser. (say Winwap: http://www.winwap.com/products_2_2.php)
According to Facebook:
Boost, Cingular, Nextel, Sprint, and Virgin currently support Facebook Mobile Web. If you have another carrier and a phone with an internet browser, it should still work, we just can't make any guarantees. If you are having trouble, please tell us your carrier, the make and model of your phone, and describe the problem that you are experiencing here.

Mike - When I started my phone this morning (I switch it off every night), I could access m.facebook.com today. Worked perfectly. So clearing your cookies might work for you too.
The mobile Facebook site is really excellent on a Vario.
Hi,
Just bought my TD2, and overall happy with it... I started testing it out and noticed that the browser cannot access any secure sites (including but not limited to: ANY webmail like Yahoo or Gmail, school login, or internet banking site).
I am a T-Mobile UK contract user (Flext). When I first turned on the phone I let it automatically configure for internet use. For general browsing that worked fine, but wouldn't let me access the sites mentioned above.
I called T-Mobile and, though they tried to be helpful, never figured out the problem. I know this is not a general T-Mobile issue because I was able to access these sites on my older phone, and I know it's not a browser issue because when connected through Wi-Fi (to my home network) it's perfectly fine.
So - if anybody has had or heard of this issue before, please help! There must be SOME setting or option that I'm missing, that prevents me from accessing secure sites!
I have the standard ROM, which includes Opera 9.5 build 16277, and Internet Explorer (of indeterminate version). Both browsers have this issue, in different ways: Internet Explorer claims the website doesn't exist:
"Cannot find 'http://mail.google.com/mail/x/?source=mobileproducts&dc=gorganic'. Make sure the path or Internet address is correct."
Opera 9.5 does one better and crashes: "We're Sorry... A problem has occurred with Opera9.exe"... followed by the option to send an error report to Microsoft.
As I said before it's NOT a browser problem because when connected to my home Wi-Fi network, both browsers work fine in secure sites.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Wassim
The T-Mobile auto configuration puts an entry under Proxy Servers which you need to remove (go to "Settings, All Settings, Connections, Connections, T-Mobile Internet, Manage Existing Connections, Proxy Settings" and check "connect direct to the internet"). Your problems should now go away and Opera shouldn't crash any more (you may need to soft reset before this takes effect).
Thank you Pete... I can't believe it was that simple, but it worked! Funny thing is, I could have sworn that option was checked off previously. But I did it again, and soft reboot, and now I can access any site I damn well please!
I'll let the guys at T-Mobile know in case some other poor guy has the same issue.
Cheers,
Wassim
Before I begin some information on the phone that might help...
The phone was bought through TELUS and of course is unlocked, it is running Stock Android 2.3.4. It is rooted (though the issue was the same when it wasn't) and it seems to be the same problem on Opera 10 as well as the default browser.
The Problem is whenever I attempt to login to a webiste on either the default browser or Opera 10, it does some sort of various issue ultimately failing to login. Over Wi-Fi this does not happen at all, but on the 3G connection with TELUS, It refuses to logon to any website.
Things Tried-
-Clearing all history cache browsing data etc.
-Restarting
-Opera browser
Have you tried fixing permissions through recovery.
I use the dolphin browser, but sometimes i get certificate not verified when trying to go to Sprint and a few other sites. But it doesn't not allow me to log in.
Have you checked browser settings to allow cookies and the others to see what they are set at.

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.
