Hey all.
I've looked for similar posts to my query but nothing specifically exists. My girlfriend got herself the Transformer a few days ago and she's loving it so far. It's the 32GB wifi only version with the dock. It's running Android 3.1, and I JUST checked the firmware (it is HMJ37.WW_epad-8.4.4.5.2-20110603).
However we've noticed it occasionally loads web pages extremely slow (or not at all - it'll just stall). Often half the page will be blank / white and scrolling up and down makes the page look messy, if that makes sense. And additionally we're having no success downloading email attachments UNLESS we use the stock email app.
We've tried downloading attachments from her Hotmail account which fail straight away, though the file is saved, only it's 0KB. We've also had no luck with this in her Microsoft OWA (Outlook Web Access) for her work email (the same thing happens with the attachments).
Using the stock email app is fine and downloading of attachments work fine. So we thought maybe the stock Browser is just playing up. We tried Firefox and it's the same (not to mention text looks horrid in OWA). We also tried Skyfire and while it's a nice browsing experience the same problem exists with downloading attachments.
Of course then I wondered that perhaps the wifi connection is messed up. We're going to run some tests with tethering from out phones tonight, but we're able to go to the Market and surf the net without any problems. Even in stock Browser the Hotmail emails themselves are fine, just attachments don't download.
I installed Galaxy on Fire, and got to the download extra content screen, but it has yet to successfully download the files. First attempt got to about 12%, then stalled. I tried relaunching the game, download won't budge. Uninstalled it, re-installed, started to download again, got to 26% and stalled again. Very frustrating!
So that's the deal. Anyone else experienced anything similar to this?
All problems are fixed. It must have been just a dodgy wifi connection. Thread can be closed.
EDIT: Scrap that, the problem is back and it's got me perplexed! GAAAAH!
Ok, I've just gone into my Netgear router's setting and on the Wireless Station Access List I have five devices connected to the network. My PC, my girlfriend's Wii, two devices named "Android_XXX (XXX is a bunch of numbers - two sets) and then a device named "UNKNOWN." I think the Transformer is one of the "Android_XXX" devices. On closer inspection, it appears the Mac address of one of the "Android_XXX" and the Mac address in the Tf's settings match.
Any suggestions folks? Please?

All of a sudden I got "An error had occurred while fetching data [null]" every time I want to see my live feed and my own profile from my Nexus One phone (stock Facebook app). I have no problem accessing it from the browser or PC.
Strange thing though, when i log out, then re-login using OTHER facebook account, I can see the live feed and the profile page no problem. Everything works fine again.
However, once i login using MY account, problem starts again.
I have hard reset my N1, problem still there.
Any idea? Please help.
I like the stock Facebook app on N1, don't really want to install another app or use browser to access it.
Oh and my N1 is stock, no root yet.
Thank you
Calm down and take a deep breath I have the same problem. It is not your phone it is facebook server. I had the problem yesterday shortly and today in the morning. Now it seems ok for me...wait until they repair the problem and use the browser application in the meantime...
i had the same issue also, mine seems to be working now though.
so server related not my phone?
phew...
mine still isn't working though
still not working? dang, just give it some time, mine was out a good 6-7 hours
I've had this issue on the Desire ROM where the live feed on the Friend Stream just refuses to update... I was "locked out" for a few days.
strange, it wasn't working for a while until u put the facebook widget on my home. click on the facebook icon, then ta-da! all working again.
Not sure if it was a coincidence...
It's a problem with some 3rd party apps that push data to your facebook feed and the client's interpretation of the XML. Zynga apps being one of them.
You can experiment by hiding various 3rd party apps form your facebook feed (or logging in when you get the error on a computer and seeing what apps were there and not on your phone).
Once they're hidden (or, over time as they pass further down the history list) your feed will work fine.
i don't play games on facebook, nor have i allow any games to be on my profile.
strange, but it works ok now.
Not just games this can be form ANY third party app that has an illegal character in it....this includes quizes, "who visited your profile", horoscopes, any of those things, anything that is not a pure-facebook update.
Same problem here on htc desire S. On wifi all is ok. On 3g ''An error had occurred while fetching data (null.)'' This is very strange.
Since yesterday, I'm having a problem over 3G.
The default browser when I try to access any https page:
Data connectivity problem
A secure connection could not be established.
.. Weird thing, happens with everything, web banking, google account login, google buz, etc
Isn't the provider, because opera can access any of them, and I could live with opera, but also a couple of applications like 'soundhound' I think they use https also, because won't work , but If I go by wi-fi, everything comes back to normal.
Someone told me about cleaning APNs, did, but the same result.
Using rooted 026 version, everything fine from months ago, but yesterday started with this weird problem
I have a similar problem. In the default browser, when I try to log in to my online banking account (Westpac), instead of displaying the page like normal it downloads it and I have to open it from the downloads. It's weird and I cant actually click anything on the downloaded page. But in Opera it works fine, so does anyone know if there's a fix and how?

exactly, opera mini works fine, but the problem isn't only about using Opera, it's that another 3 applications seems to use https
gtalk
gmail
buzz
and I can't post buzz with the widget, not use gmail app, not even gtalk.
soundhound also works only on wi-fi.
I can play some games without wi-fi, just 3G, access most pages.
The only problem seems to be https on 3G.
Already read a lot of workrounds on other devices, but seems isn't related to my problem.
I have had my A7 for about two weeks. Although I'm not very computer savvy, it all seems like it should be pretty simple. To activate the kindle app tap it, enter your amazon e-mail & password, and that's it, but I keep getting a message that says I have no internet connection when I absolutely do. With the email app it tells me my username or password is incorrect even though I know they are correct. In addition I don't seem to be able to download photos or music from a flashdrive or MP3, except one photo at a time which I am allowed to use as my background. I have sent two emails to customer support and called them once, where I talked to a support tech whose sole support was as a cheerleader. She knew absolutely nothing technical but said she would ask her supervisor to "escalate" my ticket. That was a week ago and still no response.
Wow, that really stinks. I haven't had any of these problems with my A7. Are you experiencing sign in trouble with any other application?
How are your music and image files saved on your micro sd card? Just wondering if there's a simple explanation... these two issues, while really irritating, don't seem to be related. Tech support for the A7 should be a lot better... seems non-existent.
Re:Help
Can you see the mp3's and photo's in a file manager?
Have you verified that you are indeed Internet connected by going to the browser and seeing if you can access Internet sites?
What application are you running for mp3's and photo's. Most will automatically discover your files.
Have you tried to copy them to an internal micro SDHC card to see if they are accessible? or to the internal disk of the A7?
I don't have the problem with kindle app, have you verified that uppercase/lowercase can be used vs. just lowercase in the entry of your id or password?
Are you using the standard A7 image or Dexters? Have you upgraded the OS image to the newest version?

I've only been interested in trying a few of the other apps. The Aldiko ereader and Getjar apps work. None of the three Amazon apps or the FBReader work. I was using a flashdrive for the pictures, and I could view them in the gallery while the flashdrive was engaged, but could find no way to save them onto the tablet except by picking one and saving it as a wallpaper. When I picked another one, it deleted the previous one. The music I was trying to save was from a Sansa clip using a USB, but reading reviews on Amazon has pretty much taught me that the USB won't handle that, so when I am less discouraged I will transfer to a a micro SD and try again there. I have toggled back and forth from my Amazon account going the roundabout way typing in the address in the browser and trying to get the Kindle app to work (ditto for the email account) but always get the same responses -- the Kindle app says I have no internet connection and the email app says my username or password are incorrect. I have the standard A7 image, but I did do the most current firmware update, which of course wiped everything I had managed to do so I had to start over, but my problems weren't corrected.
Oh, and btw now three emails and one phone call to customer support have gone ignored for about two weeks now. I have decided I will send them a complaint e-mail every day for a little while and if still no answer will "escalate" my own e-mails to two per day.
I would try a hard reset and wiping the cache clear it will clear everything but along with that any possible problem. Remember you have 30 days to return it and or replace it so maybe do that instead of the email campaign or at least in conjunction with the email campaign.

I got my elocity in the mail this week. I installed the 1.3 and the ad hoc fix. I tried to connect to the internet through my motorola backflip with Barnacle and nothing doing. Will someone help?
Guys,
As of this evening I have hit upon a problem whilst attempting to refresh my Yahoo email account.
Up until this evening everything was fine.... The Email widget refreshed my Yahoo account every 15mins and showed me any new emails received.
However, this evening I noticed I had not received any new messages for quite some time so I went into the Email app and manually hit refresh and it was then I came across a warning message at the top of the email apps page saying "Connection problem".
This then activated a Notification saying "Couldn't sign in" followed by "The username or password for myemailaddress.com is incorrect. Update them now".
However, they are both correct. Nothing I do will sort out the issue.
Has anyone else come across this problem and if so how did you sort it out.
Thanks
I have come across the same exact issue with yahoo mail on an iPhone several times. I have concluded that it is a server problem. Give it a day or two and it will start working again as did mine.

Thanks but I'm not so sure about this. Maybe the issue you had was extremely similar.... Did you manage to access your email from an Online web server?
I can access mail from the Web Browser so I don't think it''s a server issue.
The GMail App works fine, so something has become corrupted along the lines.
Tried deleting the account and creating a new one.... that didn't work.
Yes, I was able access my yahoo mail using a web browser. The first time that issue occurred, I also tried everything you have tried to include restoring the firmware on my iphone to no avail. I gave up and a day or two later, it starting working again. Since then, I have had this issue at least twice. You may have a different problem but the symptoms are quite similar.

SOLVED..... You were correct. It was the server.
What I did in the end was from the Online Web Server I signed in using the current password then changed it to a different one.
I then went to my Nexus 7 and changed the password to reflect the updated password.
BINGO..... It synced.
So somewhere along the lines it was the server that was not allowing the old password to work correctly.
Thanks.
Would appear I spoke too soon.... The damn things playing up again. Same problem, keeps teling me it's the wrong password. Only this time I can't use the same method to fix it, as it does not matter how many times I change the password on the server the Nexus 7 Email app keeps saying it's wrong.
So, any ideas guys?
I couldn't find anything related to what I am seeing, either through Google or the forums. Not sure where the best place to post this is, so here I am!
I purchased one of the ZTE open's that were on eBay for the U.S since I like experimenting with multiple mobiles os's. Received it the other day.
Some issues/possible issues:
-Constant update loop. I keep getting the notifications that there is a system update, when I already did that system update. I'm not sure if the system is not actually updating or the update process is buggy. It looks like I am staying on 1.0.1.0. During the process of downloading the file, it would hang multiple times and I would have to restart it too.
-Facebook contact import. Love going to a new phone with the ability to update either through google, facebook or even both. For some reason it just wont work. I go through the process, sign in and get an error message through which looks like a web page. The message is invalid app id.
-Mail doesn't seem to work, or not work very well. An activesync email address doesn't seems to really be working as I keep receiving an issue of not being able to connect to the server when I do it manually. If i don't do it manually I'm not sure email is being received correctly. For gmail I have to manually fetch emails, but that doesnt work all the time.
-AT&T data connection. For some reason this seems a little sporadic, so not sure if its the area I am in or the phone. Data is turned on. The defaults were set as APN = wap.cingular.com, Username = [email protected] and Password = CINGULAR1. The http proxy boxes are blank.
So, curious to if anyone else here in the U.S is having these issues with the phones they just got? Overall its an interesting, but simple phone. If I could get some of these small things to work I feel it would be a solid phone for my use.

I am having some of the same issues. Namely the update loop and Facebook syncing not working.
I am using T-Mobile right now, but I haven't really used it much to know if the cell data is troublesome or not.
The update issue is a known bug, and was reported Friday. I am currently on T-Mobile with mine, and everything works as far as cell data, SMS, and MMS. I have my Gmail set up in the phone, but haven't bothered to see about updates or checking the settings. I also don't allow FB to import my contacts, so I wouldn't know.
Can't update this damn phone. Can't get MMS text. Becoming more of a problem, rather than a solution. Was going to give it to my dad since it's not too techy, but god damnit, at least have the basic functions working.
