Guys, I have a bit of a strange problem.. i am using JF1.5 but my browser is not working... by that i mean it opens without a problem and shows the homepage ( www.google.com ) in a second but when i open anyother address it just says " web page not available- check your internet connection " but the strange thing is that when i open a link there is no network activity as if the browser aint even trying to connect to the network ....
Now i have installed opera mini and thats working just fine .... i.e opens every page quickly .... but opera is very hard and i dont like it at all .... and i want to use the built in browser...
Any Idea whats the problem ?
Thanks
the google home page you see is probably a cached version, it didn't actually download that page from the internet.
from your description, it seems to be a network state problem. the android system has its own way for detecting internet connections, it may report you're offline even if you're not. but the only two apps I know that uses this is browser and downloader. you have to check if your apn settings are complete. make sure you have the "proxy" field set.
I tried to mess with the apn settings but to no use .... Its really freaky ... every other browser works just fine .... and so does the market and google talk but the built in browser behaves as if there is no data connection .... is there a way i can uninstall it and reinstall it from somewhere somehow ?
Regards
I'm having the same exact problem. I upgraded my G1 and it worked fine but when I upgraded my girlfriends G1, the default browser doesn't work.
I will open up the browser and the page will show and then it just closes out and goes back to the desktop. I've tried to flash it again and there is no change.
Ok.
So I went into the application manager and cleared out everything and it still doesn't work.
Not sure what could be causing this because my phone flashed fine.
Ok I have htc 3d and hitting home allows to see recent and switch to home. I am also new top android. When you click home nothing happens unless you are out of application.
Also oss the search button on bottom goods for anything? Out does not seem to work in. any app.
I am on the new update fun sprint.
Thanks for any help.

Works fine for me as it does on every other android device I have and have played with.. Hold home, the list of currently/recently running apps pops up, and also gives you the task manager button.. If that doesn't work for you on your Tab, you may have a config issue.
I gifted it out. Tried rooting phone and it messed up. reset phone and it is good. Thanks

I have a slight problem which I can't fix. Whenever I open dolphin browser hd the Google homepage opens up even though I have the homepage set as new tab. Also Google will randomly open on a new tab while I am browsing on another tab. I tried changing all various settings and it didn't fix it. I even tried downloading Firefox and that worked fine until when I closed and then opened it again it came up with the Google homepage!
I have no idea what the problem could be. I need help please!

Try clearing the cache and data for your browser. It should work perfectly after that.

Nope had the same problem yesterday in my PC.It randomly changes my search results and open tabs which I didnt click.
Sounds like you have a dns virus in your router.
Hi everyone, this is a really irritating problem, I hope someone can help.
I can no longer download unless I'm using a wifi connection. This applies to the Play Store as well as email attachments and even saving files/images from the web browser. If I switch to a wifi connection it works.
Everything else works fine. I've tried clearing data from the download manager in Settings --> Apps but that doesn't fix it. Kinda run out of ideas.
I'm using a stock Galaxy Note 4.04 (non rooted) on Orange, UK.
Thanks
Playstore-->menu-->settings-->untick download only using wifi..same applies for downloader managers as well.
Pressing the thanks button requires just few seconds and a mind n heart that feels satisfied

I've checked and "Update over Wifi only" is not checked. I've tried checking it and unchecking it again but still no joy.
As for download managers... I am using a stock phone. I don't know how to change any settings in the download manager. All I can do is remove the data when I visit Settings --> Apps.
If I try to download it downloads about 8k and then stops. If I then enable Wifi the download continues normally.

I think you might be onto something here, but I have no idea what I'm looking for.
When I go to Settings --> Mobile Network, --> Access Point Names I'm presented with:
Orange UK internet
Orange Broadband
Orange UK MMS
The first one is selected. If I click on any of them I'm presented with the following:

They don't appear to be editable.
May be u need to delete and re enter then. make sure u have setting for the. else contact t the service provider
Hi all,
So today the mobile data of my dad's s3 mini started to act weird.
He can access facebook, and some other apps while in data ( the apps are installed through play store... )but the youtube app, or accessing youtube, facebook, google or any other site on the internet browser is impossible.
He can use about 1GB of data and it resets every month, but he only used 600MB over the last 3 months so that can't be the problem.
I tried googling it but haven't seen anything that helped me.
Is there any fix for this, if yes, then please tell me i don't have to put it in default settings
Thanks in advance

EDIT: Okay so if you happen to have this problem follow these steps:
Go to your menu and press settings.
Then go to mobile networks, located under the connectivity tab
Now there are some options, one of them is called "access point names", click that
Then you got 1 or more circles which you can check, see which one has a green dot in it, for me it was the first, keep that one in mind
Now hit the menu button and choose "reset to default settings", this will set everything back to default, obviously .
Now choose the circle again which you kept in mind, enable data and ur done!
He just told me that some stuff happened in his pocket but doesnt know what
Also fyi, its on stock, not rooted, not unlocked... Pure stock
Aight I fixed it, see the first post for the fix
