[Q] MIUI 108260 browsing issue while not on WiFi - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just wondering if anyone else is having/has had this issue. Since updating to the latest MIUI, I can't access any webpage via the browser unless I'm on WiFi. I'm using a Bell Vibrant with the KC1 modem, and prior to the update (which was last week I think) everything seemed to be working fine.
Any idea what might be causing this? Or what I might try doing to fix this?

I forgot to mention that it's only the browser that's having the issue. I can use apps with internet connectivity on the network (e.g. Facebook) just fine.

AndChat (IRC) not connecting

Hello,
I've been having a problem with AndChat not connecting to IRC.
It will only connect over Wifi, not 3g/edge. I am on T-Mobile and Cyanogenmod latest. More detailed specs are in my sig.
I have tried wiping, reflashing the defanged base and reflashing Cyanogenmod, and reverting my hosts file from AdFree. But I still can't connect.
I have another backup phone that connects to IRC flawlessly with the same simcard, so I know it must be a problem with my phone.
Any ideas on what my problem might be and how I might fix it?
Did the connectivity tester apk I linked you to in the email help?
I downloaded and installed it, but it just sits there trying to connect as well.
I am trying to connect to irc.freenode.org:6667, but I have tried also irc.osx86.hu:6667 and it still does not connect.
It's like just my phone has this problem.
Edit: I tried again this afternoon, I could connect successfully with the tool to irc.freenode.net:6667 and to irc.osx86.hu:6667. But my AndChat still does not connect to either.
This is a pretty crazy problem. It affects more then 1 app with seemingly no cause or pattern. I'm baffled as to what could be causing it :|
Do you think it could be my radio or something?
A while ago I tried an add-on to increase edge and 3g speeds, too, but now it's integrated into CyanogenMod if I remember correctly. So that shouldn't be the cause. Plus, I've wiped and tried new installations of CM since then and still get the problem.
If it was the radio, I think there would be more issues in general. Have you tried different ports on freenode? They use ports 6665, 6666, 6667, 7000(SSL Only), 7070 (SSL Only), 8000, 8001 and 8002 according to their website.
For some reason it magically started working after I got out from work today and tried it. A fellow IRC user (who has also had the same connectivity issues) and I have both had problems but it started working randomly today. Maybe T-Mobile fixed something with the connections? I don't know.
Thank you so much for your help though, it wasn't a problem with your app but you were still very nice and willing to try and fix the problem!

extremely slow data speeds after flashing andromeda?

hey everyone, i flashed version 1.0 of andromeda recently and i have noticed that my data speeds (especially market downloads) are very slow. i couldn't even complete a download of speedtest to actually determine my data speeds. over wifi i'm fine, but on att's network i can not finish market downloads. to fix this, i did an odin flash back to stop and a master clear, but even on stock now my market downloads are extreeeemely slow over 3g.
i dont see how this has anything to do with andromeda because after 2 stock flashes and 2 master clears i still have trouble with the market. just wondering if anyone else is having this problem or if there's anything else i can do to fix it.
ETA: ive used several other roms/kernels and have not had this issue until i installed andromeda. stock flash + master clear should negate any effects of a bad install, but i figured this might be relevant.
Not experiencing same issue but running andromeda 2. Have you considered flashing a different modem
that was my next step...but im getting these problems now even with the stock modem on JF6. no idea what's going on.
I experienced something like this on another rom once before. Have you checked if there are service issues in your area? Its the problem on wifi as well?

could be possible, but it would have to be a fairly widespread issue because i had the same issues this morning about 70 miles away from where i am right now.
How is data on wifi

[Q] Problem with WiFi

Hi!
I have a really weird problem with my SGS.
When I'm installing ANY firmware (I've tried every single one) except of my original FW "JPB", I can't get my WiFi working.
There are actually 2 types of Wifi behavior on the different ROMs. The first one is when you're connecting to the Wifi and you can actually open Google.com, Android Market, etc, normally. But when it comes to a "heavy" sites such as youtube, wifi connection just freezes and nothing helps before you'll close the browser and reconnect to the access point.
On some other roms you're connecting to Wifi without any errors too, but you can't actually open any site at all. And only on FW "JPB" (which is russian official) there is no such a problem.
Also Samsung Apps doesn't work on other ROMs, I even thought that it can be related somehow... I know that there's no logic here, so I'm really confused.
Oh, and even if I'm installing Voodoo lagfix on my official firmware I'm still getting into this trouble
I really want to hear your opinion, so please don't hesitate to reply.
Thanks in advance,
Jay

[Q] Google Goggles not working

Hi,
I am running CM7 on my Incredible S. I have not been able to get Google Goggles to work when using data (only works on wifi). It analyzes the photo forever and then it says "cannot connect" and asks me to save it for later or cancel. Has anyone else experienced this? I see other threads on the matter but most have been resolved.
Thanks
i assume the bandwidth requirement is high for running google goggles.
probably the reason why it is working on wi-fi.
and this proves there could be no issue with the app itself.
are you on a 3g connection or 2g (edge/gprs)?
3G/H...rarely goes down to just "G"
Don't see why there should be a problem.
two suggestions:
1) try uninstalling & reinstalling the app from the market.
see if that helps.
2) i still feel it could be a bandwidth problem...
try downloading speedtest and check if you are getting the advertised speeds.
you should actually have a fair idea on this if you are able to stream music/videos without lag...
for anyone that may find this in the future - I upgraded my ROM to the CM 7.1 stable version that just came out and this issue is now resolved - goggles works fine on 3G (though it uses a hell of a LOT of battery)

[Q] Wifi Connected but not working!

WiFi is working on 2 other sgs2s but not on my NOTE! It was yesterday but not anymore! i tried everything, flashed another ROM (was using criskelo v4.1, flashed CheckROMv5) in vain! The weird part is that if i go to facebook in browser it works but nothing else works. No app, market, kitchen app, nothing! All works on 3g! It's extremely frustrating and i can't seem to find any answer anywhere!
If i start browsing with 3g then enable wifi, it works. I don't know what to do and i can't keep using 3G, it's extremely expensive in my country!
It started when i flashed UltimateKernelCleaningTool from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363738&page=13 before flashing AbyssNoteKernel35bOriginalLogo.zip.
Any clues?
Try assigning Static IP in WiFi Settings.
If everything Ok on device side, you may try to reset your Router. perticularly if mac protection enable, this issue occurs.
no mac protection is enabled on router, and if it's a router problem shouldn't other devices be affected by it? Laptop connected with internet, bro's sgs2 connected with internet, sis's sgs2 also!
could be kernel related, tried a different kernel?

yes, i tried abyss3.5b and cf kernel la4!
i prefer cf kernel since it has all functions enabled like 3 way torch and loop capabilities (no other kernel has those)! I've been using the cf kernel ever since i got my NOTE 2 month ago and never encountered that problem before!
Just want to share my experience. i faced similar problem today. I connected to WIFI in my office but was not working. Then i started browser and realized i need to login to cyberroam for WIFI to work. Everything worked smoothly thereafter. Hope this helps !!! Goodluck !!!
any firewall rules enabled on router? or any IPS/filter enabled?
i use droidwall, i tried disabling it but it didnt work! I tried browsing directly after clean install (no app installed) still didn't work! 3G works great.
