Cannot access Marketplace or Twitter Updates

Hey all.
Hope you can help. This is driving me nuts.
Out of the blue, I cannot access Marketplace or twitter updates. Email adn Web are working fine over same connection.
See this video for the problem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxMmdWElZZc
(Sorry in advance that it came out side ways?!)
Its the same on wifi, makes no difference what connection I'm on.
I installed Total Commander and poked around but didn't delete anything etc. Just opened and closed folders.
Anyone got any idea for me?
I'm at a loss. I feel like its my fault but I've gone over and over the settings and did a soft reset. Not willing to do a hard reset just yet as I don't want to install everything all over again.
Thanks for any advice/help in advance!
wab.

This just gets weirder and more frustrating. What have I done? I downloaded "The Channer" with an excellent wifi connection and it says it cannot connect to the internet, asks me can it use cellular connection and still can't connect? Something seriously wrong here. Help!
I have a video of the above uploading to YouTube right now. Seriously, some advice appreciated. Ta.
Edit: Here is the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAygBKFydME
I think it may have something to do with an accidental deletion of files in ConnMgr in Total Commander?: See that mess here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6_9jcAAzbE
I didn't hit delete on any of the files there. Just pressed them and then they disappeared...

Can Anyone help? Could someone please look in ConnMgr to see what files are there? Thanks!

Dont soft reset. Power off and power on. Repeat if necessary.

Thanks Gavinfabl. I've power cycled about 5 times to no avail :-(

Goto settings tab on home screen, select menu, all settings, connections, wifi and turn on from here. Also, try rebooting your router. Can you connect on 3g signal?
Also try going into the connections applet, and edit current and untick connect via proxy if ticked.

Hi again, I have wifi on and it doesn't make any difference. I've rebooted router, can get mail and web fine, also wifi router at work is fine, again mail and web only. Twitter, Marketplace and The Channer all give an immediate unable to connect error. I fear its something more serious. I've no issues with my 3G or HSDPA signal. I've checked and unchecked proxer server and it makes no difference. All logical courses action (to me at least) are proving fruitless.

So, I uninstalled Marketplace and reinstalled it from the mp.windowsphone.com site, restarted my phone (automatically) and then did a soft reset.. now Marketplace won't even open although its listed in the start menu. I am seriously about to throw this phone out the window...

Was going to do a hard reset. Discovered MyPhone won't connect either to backup my stuff. What is going on???

I had same problem with Marketplace and Facebook. Everything else connected fine over wifi and 3G. I ended up doing a hard reset and it has been fine ever since. It was the only way I could get around the problem

i have the exact same problem ive spent hours on the phone with msoft to no avail you have to be a very special kind of stupid to be a customer service rep at microsoft man they are brain dead anyway if someone gets this figured out please post and a hard reset on mine did not work

What other apps have you installed getwet as a matter interest. Are you having the exact same issue as in my videos? Trying to find a commonality here. Its not good that a hard reset did not work for you! I was planning on doing that this weekend.

Happend to me to.
FB, market and widget stopped working but a hard reset fixed it!?
No clue what made it happen, I've installed most apps again and this time it works fine.

[Q] Help troubleshooting patchy data connection

Hey guys, hoping for some help here
I'm using the best Sense-based EU ROM I've ever come across and I really, really, really don't want to change ROM. The ROM I'm using is Korand's Incredible S build, development of which has been pretty much discontinued as far as I can see. Here's a link to it.
I don't want to say the data doesn't work on the ROM, because it sometimes does, and it's not an issue with my hardware as I've used other, laggier ROMs where data has worked fine. It's not an APN issue as I've checked and triple checked them. I've tried with three different radios (2.15, 2.14, 2.12) and have had similar results with all three.
Basically, what happens is:
- I go to use something using data, like the browser, facebook, bbc news etc
- The data icon shows downloading and uploading on 3G. Nothing happens. It switches to HSDPA and shows uploading, then stops. It switches back to 3G, then stops.
- Sometimes, if I'm lucky at this point, it will switch back to HSDPA, show downloading and uploading, and let me do what I want to do. This generally takes 15 seconds or more.
- Most of the time, I have to disable and re-enable the data connection to get it to work.
I don't understand, because obviously the phone can get a data connection, it just takes a long ass time and is a lot slower/patchier than other ROMs. But I really don't want to change ROMs, as apart from this data issue Korand's build is perfect for me.
Can somebody give me a hand troubleshooting this? I'd really appreciate it and am willing to donate a beer if somebody can help me get it fixed
cheers,
zuka

Checks your APN's are correct.
It looks to me like you have erroneous information in your APN's. Ensure they are exactly how your network provider suggests.
It might also be worth deleting every single APN that exists in the list and starting your data and mms off from scratch.
I just did exactly that due to issues I was having with O2 MMS.

Internet problems

Hi all
I've posted this on another forum but its a bit dead so didn't get any help.
Recently and it is really annoying but facebook and certain other websites just don't load on the stock browser or dolphin pad.
Now the youtube app seems to work fine but loading a youtube video on either browser and it really struggles. However I can go on project free tv and stream an episode of a programme no problem. Every now and then though facebook etc can work fine and then I turn the tablet off and go back on it and it isn't working again.
So frustrating because it was working fine about 10 days ago.
Thanks

Anyone? Still having this problem, very weird and annoying.

I'm having the exact same problem. All apps work at full speed but any browser i use has trouble and takes a minute or so to load a page. XDA is the slowest site for me, taking 2 minutes to load a page. I have odined twice, rerooted, flashed 4 different roms, all the same. I go to xda on my netbook and my phone, on the same wifi connect, and they load xda immediately.

Did you guys recently updated Flash Player (or had it updated automatically)? I did and I noticed all flash-heavy sites work a lot slower, some videos don't want to play at all, some sites won't even open anymore.
I'll try to remove the latest update or uninstall it completely and look for older version and post back.

well, i tried uninstalling flash but wouldn't let me. so first i disable plugins on the dolphin browser, still no dice. then i froze flash, went back to xda-developers.com and it still just sits there.

I pullled my hair out yesterday with an intermittent internet problem, which I was able to solve by Rebooting my entire LAN and WAN (DSL Modem) systems.
The details of my episode are here: OOPS
Can't post the link, but it is on galaxytabforum.net under the General Discussion sub forum titled "intermittent slow stop go wifi operation"
If you don't want to read the entire post there, just cut to the chase on the bottom line.

im starting to think that there is a problem within the tab itself. i have tried "in paris" rom, overcome rom, stock rom, stock kernals on all, and pershoots kernel with each rom. all apps work fine for internet connection and speed. its just right now, my tab, when going to xda-developers, takes about 2 minutes a page load. google.com, duckduckgo.com almost most websites instantly load. last night i changed dns servers on my tab with no luck. others have reported issues with "find on page" within their browsers, its starting to make me think that there is something wrong with honeycomb itself. when i first got my tab, the internet on any browser was flawless.

Yeh thats very similar to my problem, if not identical.
Sometimes mine works fine and then it is a nightmare (mostly a nightmare to be honest)
This was a problem before flash was updated to 11.

If ur on wifi check if u r on ad hoc mode...

You are describing the exact same problem that I encountered (see post up about 3).
If you can, find another WiFi Access Point (one that does not goback through YOUR Modem or Router) and see if the problem persists. Go to Macdonalds or Starbucks and try your TAB.
If it operates normally there, do a COMPLETE system Reboot on your internet system.

This is one of those problems, I might not be able to explain. After 4 fresh odin attempts, multiple rom flashing, I was still having issues with xda-developers.com. As of right now, I decided, hey will it work faster thru orbot, after running orbot and going to xda thru the orweb browser, now my internet problem has completely disappeared. I can get to xda now either thru orbot, or straight thru no problems. This has me wondering if using odin on the galaxy tab ,doesnt completely erase like on my fascinate. On my phone, odin will take care of any problem guarented, i dont get that feeling with odin on the tablet. After one time I odined the tab, it put a wallpaper back on I had deleted a week previous.

Problem With Custom ROMs And Wireless Tether (AP)

Hi everyone,
I've tried several different ROMs for my Canadian i337m device (e.g. SlimRom, Illusion, CM, Goldeneye, Pacman, Revolt) and the only one capable of sharing my 4G connection with my laptop through is Revolt. This is after about five hours of testing and tons of flashing. I certainly "forgot" the network after each test from my laptop so the connection would be fresh each time. I've tried using various levels of security, including none. My laptop can see the AndroidAP signal and get five bars, but then internet just never loads (except with Revolt, and with stock firmware too). FWIW, I'm on Win7 64bit and I have no driver issues.
Very strange! I've tried flashing a "better tether" fix, but that breaks ROMs (they won't boot, because it's specifically for a certain ROM). I've tried reflashing the stock kernel after each ROM flash, but more often that not that just breaks the ROM flash (stuck in boot). I don't know what to do except use Revolt, which isn't a bad compromise (better than stock) but TBH, I like Illusion's UI navigation transitions so much that I'd like to use that ROM.
Any ideas? Maybe there's a way to slipstream the stock ROM's MobileAP files into another ROM? (Probably not, because stock's settings panel is completely different from other ROMs', but just an idea.)
Thank you for reading.

I am encountering the EXACT same issue on my Rogers Galaxy S4, tethering works with stock firmware, but nothing else, I even called rogers and had them remove and readd the tethering flag on my account. The APN settings on the TW (stock) firmware are exactly the same as the settings on the custom ROMs. Wondering what is missing here.

Howdy,
Found the solution to my tethering issues, simply go to the Play Store and search for this app:
ISWAT Tether Unlocker Free
There will be a rather obnoxiously loud app that will play before it performs the operation to unlock your tethering, but afterwards, it works as it does with the stock ROM. You're free to uninstall the app afterwards and you'll retain your tethering abilities

Glad this worked for you. It's still working for me, but not quite as well, I have to rerun it everytime I restart my device now. Not quite sure why or what it does in the backgroud to enable the tethering.

Hmm, I also need to re run the app after every device reboot.... Oh well at least it works.

OMG thank you, I've been looking for something to fix this for a few weeks now but this did the trick. That ad for bigfish casino was really loud with my speaker mods, but hey, it works so it's good enough.
thanks again

Did you try clearing both caches?, could possibly be another .apk conflicting with it
