I use Duckduckgo as the default browser on my Zenfone 8. If I disable Wi-Fi connection it does not connect to the internet, "Web Page Is Not Available", even though the Moble Data connection is enabled.
I definitely have not exceeded my mobile plan's huge download limit so I can't figure out why the browser won't connect?
Any ideas I could try or settings that might fix this problem?
Thanks.

Thanks, but I have the correct APN from my phone service provider.
is it only this website or everything?
I have two browsers on my Zenfone 8. I discovered that they will only work at home if Wi-Fi permission is enabled. I'm puzzled because I thought if Wi-Fi was off they would connect using the Mobile data connection.
Outdoors both browsers work whether Wi-Fi is enabled or disabled.
In Developer options I have enabled "Mobile data always active - always keep mobile data active, even when Wi-Fi is active for fast network switching".
It's not an important point, I'm just curious why the phone won't use mobile data at home even if Wi-Fi is unavailable (which is sometimes the case where I live).

I am having an issue where my third part apps cannot connect to the net.
Live search, google maps, 3dtracking
IE works just fine I can browse no probs.
the third party apps do work with my wifi connection. when i am connected vie wifi at home everything works fine.
could it be some kind of security setting?
NM. I solved the problem
http info was missing. although I could have sworn it was setup.
I'm having the same issue with Tracky - what do you mean by "http info"

Look in Start>Settings>Connections>Connections>Edit my proxy server>advanced tab>HTTP
Mike
everytime I connect to active sync I losse my http settings for the proxy.
So here is what I did.
settings/connections/advanced/se;ectnetworks/edit medianet/proxy settings
This connection uses a proxy server to connect to the internet. I UNchecked that box. basicly I turned off the proxy.
now all of my apps can connect just fine.
This is with a stock ATT tilt.
I hope this helps others in the future.
At&T Tilt using HTC Kaiser ROM
nothing but IE or Email could start a data connection
Start > Settings > Connections > Connections > Advanced > Select Networks
It had "My ISP" selected as the default
Changed it to "MEdia Net" and everything's gravy.
Ok, so after a battle with my Live Search not showing any data and unable to connect to the GPRS, I found a solution... in case anyone else has same problem, read on.
1. Reset back to all your default connection settings. It will take u 5 minutes, just follow this guide:
https://www.wireless.att.com/support/deviceConfig.do?content=KB84444.html
2. Go to your Settings -> Connections -> Connections -> Advanced
Click Select Networks
Select Media NET in the first drop-down, then click corresponding Edit button
Go to "proxy settings" tab at the bottom, and UNCHECK the "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet".
Now close all the windows, restart Live Search... and boom - it should download everything just fine.
P.S:
The idea is to have all the settings exactly as ATT wants them to be, with the EXCEPTION of disabling the Proxy.
Gmail just used "100% of your airtime". Can I make it only connect using wifi or direct active sync connect?
If it's a FAQ, point me at the thread and accept my apologies

Searh forum for NoGPRS.cab
Do a search for NoGPRS.cab or NoData it will allow you turn off your phones need to call out through GPRS or Media Net. It will then only use wifi to go out to internet.

What I really wanted was individual config, so that say
my blackberry app would always use wahtever was available hspda,3g,gprs,wifi,bt,active sync, but gmail could only use wifi or bt or activesync.
I was wondering along the lines of a proxy, use a differnt address for different typoe of connect
proxy1 - any service
proxy2 - restricted
proxy3 even more restricted
Proxy depending on connection??
Hi,
I would like to configure different proxy options depending on the connection, something like:
1. If cradled: use cradle internet connection, proxy 1 (namely the company proxy).
2. If wifi connection: no proxy (usually cofee shops with free wifi)
3. If no connection available, use GPRS (proxy 2, configured according to operator)
Is there any way to do this? It would be perfect for me!! And I'm sure more people must have this kind of needs.
Thanks a lot!

Hey guys,
I used diamond then shifted to Omnia and now back on Diamond.
Diamond was never able to use airtel live and the customer care people used to say that the service is not available to any Windows Mobile Device and i need to buy Mobile Office to use net on my cell. Bull S***..!!
Then i went to Omnia and it was able to run Airtel Live. Damn.. Whats wrong with Diamond then.
For some reasons i shifted back to Diamond and searched day and night to find out the solution. Here it is:-
1. Activate Airtel Live by sending the following SMS to 121: MASALA ACTIVE.
2. The service takes atleast 3-4 hours to get active. Restart the phone and resume configuring.
3. Tap Start -> Settings.
4. Select Connections Tab and tap Connections.
5. Select Advanced Tab, tap Select Networks button to bring up Network Management.
6. Under "Programs that automatically connect to the Internet should connect using:" drop down, tap the New button.
7. In the General Tab, type the name of the settings as Airtel Live
8. Select Modem tab, tap New...
9. Type the name of connection as Airtel Live, select the modem as Cellular Line (GPRS) and tap Next.
10. Type Access Point Name as airtelfun.com and tap next.
11. Leave username, password and domain blank and tap finish.
12. Select Proxy Settings tab. Tap "This network connects to the Internet". This should enable the next check box option.
13. Tap "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet".
14. Type the proxy server as: 100.1.200.99 and then tap Advanced...
15. Tap HTTP, leave the server as 100.1.200.99 and change the port to 8080
16. Similarly tap WAP, Secure WAP and Socks, type the server as 100.1.200.99 but leave the port to defaults. These are optional settings.
17. Tap OK to close the Advanced proxy setup screen.
18. Tap OK to close the New connection screen.
19. The network management screen should now list the new connection you have created in the drop-down. Tap OK to close this screen
20. Tap OK to close the connection screen.
And its done. Use IE or Opera and have fun.
Njoi..!!
do leave a "Thanks" if it works out.
I did all the steps and after them there's the Edge icon on the signal bar when some application try to connect to internet...but i still any application is not able to access the internet. When I open the site in IE i get "Request not authorized to access WAP gateway". Also its not that I don't have WAP access on my Airtel connection, the same SIM is able to access WAP sites through nokia's default browser in my older nokia 6600
NOP still works? i thought it was stopped sometime back. Will try it out.
umm..any idea whats the downloading/browsing charges?
btw..i'm in bombay

gmail problem now !
Blackberry connect, on htc pp300 running onWM 6.1, used to freeze the mobile frequently. After making these changes, there are no more hangs
Now gmail connection has stopped working. I get an error "error synchronizing". I tried both POP3 and IMAP connections. Any suggestions on how to fix the problem.
I have a question regarding internet connections:
When I use WIFI connection, I can use all internet applications; Internet, Gmail, Daily Briefing, ....
When I use Mobile Data connection (GPRS), all Samsung applications says that there is a connection problem. For example; I cannot update the weather on Daily Briefing, etc.
However, all android application (like Internet, Gmail, FB) work without problems.
I thought that this is a problem with stock room, however, currently I am using JP3 and the problem is still here.
Any idea why is this happening?
Seems to me that your internet mobile provider is blocking some ports
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Is there generally anything I can do to open those ports?
nope, they are blacklisted by your mobile provider
check if your APN is set correctly
Home screen -> Menu-> Settings -> Wireless and network -> Mobile network -> Access Point Names
Maybe "internet" is missing?
@freshko:
If I followed Irt01's steps and I have:
Planet internet and a green radio button.
I only used "Samsung Apps" once and it didn't want to work over 3G, when I enabled WiFi it worked flawlessly. I don't use any other Samsung's apps because there are better alternatives on Android Market.
Hej Yanni.
I sent you a private message. Did you get it?
1. make sure you have a data plan.
2. make sure your APN is configured properly
3. check that you are able to browse the net
4. try to sync with your gmail account on GPRS/3G
if that works, you should be able to run other applications, unless those ports are black listed by your cell phone provider, like for example FTP, IRC, Skype, MSN and other stuff like that
Probably they are blocked because as I said. I can browse internet, checking gmail, however, I cannot update weather from Daily Briefing. My data connection notifications goes from H to 3G, than back to H, and then I get: data connection error.
