Why is it that Opera on my Fuze (Stock ROM), running 3G, doesn't open http://www.google.com/news. I get a "The requested page can not be displayed" error. Other websites open just fine. If I put the phone in WiFi mode then the website opens as normal. Why would going through 3G keep this particular page from opening? Can you guys open that page on your Fuze with 3G? If I use Opera Mini the site open as normal.

Have you checked to make sure your device is not running through the proxy? Check Settings-->connections-->connections-->Advanced--> medianet-->proxy
Make sure the box is unchecked that says "this connection uses a proxy to connect to the internet"

Thanks for the reply. Yeah, that was one of the first things I looked at. Yes, it is unchecked. The only check mark is, "This network connects to the internet". The box below that is unchecked (Proxy).

How about "remove hidden proxy" cab? It's in my sig if you don't have it.
Go into Opera and type "opera:config" into the url bar. Go to the "Proxy" section and uncheck "Use HTTP" and "Use HTTPS". That proxy wreaks havoc with HTML not meant for mobile browsers.

On my Fuze, in the Tools folder there is Disable Proxy and Restore Proxy function. I've tried both of them and still couldn't get that website to work. Are these two programs the same as the one you recommended?
What Drachen said will fix your problem. It is the AT&T proxies that are causing it not to work. Just be aware if you need to access Media Net or Cingular Video (any internal AT&T site) you will want to re-enable the HTTP and HTTPS proxies.

Interesting problem. I've tried disabling the Proxy with the Icon in my Tools folder - didn't work. I then downloaded the Cab file from "scotchua", thanks. But it still didn't work. Not sure what else to try. As a side note, when I use the Disable Proxy program Internet Explorer no longer works. I have to re-enable the Proxy in order for that to function.

Glad to help. That drove me f'ng nuts for the first two hours I had the Fuze. I use the iPhone version of Google Reader as my main RSS reader on Opera and I was just about to cancel my brand new contract and take the Fuze back to the store before I saw that proxy setting!

This Disable Proxy program disables the proxy for Pocket IE but not for Opera (which is now setup as the default browser on the Fuze). What you are probably seeing when you run the disable proxy is that PocketIE is not working as it defaults to the Media Net homepage which you can't get to if the proxy is diabled.
What you need to do is follow the instructions from Drachen to disable the proxy from Opera so you can get to the sites.

ive read a couple things about t-mo having issues with their internet access. but its just 1 option thats disapearing.
Do you have this problem when you use the carrier ROM?
start>settings>connections>connections>set up my proxy server>check the box that says "This network uses a proxy....etc" when the advanced button lights up click it. Click on the type of proxy you need to setup......

see thats the problem. in WM5 the option to edit my proxy server is there, but in WM6 the option is gone. i have;
"add a new modem connection"
"manage existing connections"
i have an option to edit the proxy in which my work network runs off of, but that doesnt help me.
the option isnt there when u use My ISP and change the name.. you need to create a new one and then input all of your settings. it will then have the option for the proxy

no it was not. also you have a link to a decent AIM?
When you flash a custom vanilla ROM, you won't have any GPRS settings for your carrier. If you look around, you'll find instructions on how to set up your T-Mobile stuff. Try the Crossbow Reloaded thread, as I remember seeing a link to the instructions there.

Actually, that is the problem. Like I said, vanilla ROMs don't have carrier settings. You have to either install a CAB that contains the necessary registry settings or you need to tweak them yourself. The thread I recommended contains a link to the necessary T-Mobile settings. Lucky for you, nstefanelli was kind enough to provide the CAB, but since I have Cingular I have no idea if they configure your phone for GPRS. I'm sure you'll figure it out eventually.

ok, for some reason youre not understanding the situation, i know the settings i needed to put in, again that wasnt the problem.
Start>Settings>Connections>Connections>Add a new modem connection>Enter a name>Cellular Line (GPRS)>Next>wap.voicestream.com in the Access point name field>Next>Finish.
this is where my problem was. there should be a "Edit my proxy server" in the menu, but for some reason its not there. it has nothing to do with my carrier or anything like that. what Nset' told me to do didnt fix my problem.

I understand it has nothing to do with your carrier. This is my point: if your phone works when you use the default ROM, then the problem lies with WM6. You are missing key settings that prevent WM6 from connecting via GPRS to any network. I've installed WM6 quite a few times on my 8125, and each time I was unable to connect to anything until I installed a CAB provided in the Crossbow Reloaded thread. After that, I was able to enter the necessary proxy.
Now, if you've already visited the reloaded thread and tried the T-Mobile stuff that's provided there, then I apologize. However, I get the distinct feeling you haven't done that yet. If you just can't get WM6 working, then revert to the default 2.26 T-Mobile ROM.
As most people will know; VF left out this application.
I am told this is because VF believe that business users dont like entertainment (!) and therefore wouldnt use it. Also, that WM phones dont 'do wap'. Can that be right? I am sure my old Omnia had VF Live on it.
Anyway, I think in order for me to get Sky Sports Mobile TV, I need to access it through the VF Live WAP portal.
Anyone know if this has been sorted for us on these forums? I found one vodafone live .cab but that didnt work and just mucked up my connection settings (unless I did something wrong).
This phone also doesnt have the YouTube app (it's entertainment again you see). A VGA .cab of that would be good too
Thanks

WM phone do support WAP and can be accessed from the Touch Pro on the vodafone network. However, you can not get onto the Vodafone Live Website due to the fact that their servers do not recognise the phone browser and therefore defaults to the vodafone live page that is accessed from your desktop. To my knowledge there is no work around for this.
I believe that if you change the user agent of opera or internet explorer to that of a supported mobile phone, you are then able to view the vf live wap portal pages.
Sadly, i don't know the user agent of a supported phone, but I'm sure something like a Nokia N95 would be compatible.
obviously, we would now need to find the user agent string for that device and try that.....
Apparently the N95 user agent string is...
Mozilla/5.0 (SymbianOS/9.2; U; Series60/3.1 NokiaN95/11.0.026; Profile MIDP-2.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.1) AppleWebKit/413 (KHTML, like Gecko) Safari/413
I have got it working, but you have to create another connection with the following settings
Make an internet connection,
use cellular line GPRS 3G
Access Point NAME: wap.vodafone.co.uk
username: wap
Password: wap
then for this connection you need to setup a proxy.
Http: 212.183.137.12:8799
weird that vodafone does something like this!
Here in the netherlands if I go to the vodafone site they say proudly that ya can use youtube as well!
I have a ( general) TP without a simlock...no I had the youtube app pre-installed. With vodafone as my current provider it works great...

Thanks for the responses. Unfortunately you lost me at "User String".
But on a positive it looks like I can get this up and running. Could you kindly guide me through it (the Mozilla bit not the connection settings).
Do I install it as obviosuly my Touch Pro doesnt have it.
Thanks!
I just flashed my UK voda TP with the ROMeOS ROM and the youtube app works perfectly, no need to adjust any settings, (unlike T-mob)

In Opera you need to type "opera:config" into the address bar....
Then select the option that appears in the navigation window.
Scroll down to "User prefs" and select it....
Scroll down to "Custom User Agent" and type the text string above into the box
Scroll down the page and choose "Save"....
Now when you try to access live.vodafone.com using the wap settings mentioned you should be able to access the Live portal....Haven't tried watching Sky TV etc, so don't know how well that works.....

Hiya
You know what, having read all that, I think I'm gonna try and get the Youtube app working on the device with the VF Rom left exactly as it is.
I'm up for tweaking plenty, but I also need to rely on this as a phone and messaging device, and can't afford one crash or fail really.

I tried that. But VF removed the straeming media app as well. Also no VF Live so no mobile TV.
Thats ALOT of tweaking.
Hmm, OK. rock and hard place!
I'm going to try and will let you know if I can get it working. I really don't fancy the idea of flashing and installing 1000 tweaks/apps that my device doesn't need.

Hi,
I use a wap internet connection (I think as many other users) and it require a proxy. However use a proxy with the android os seem an impossible thing! There is support only for http proxy (not socks), it can't be used over wifi and https doesn't work!
Currently the "global" proxy that I've set is considered ONLY by browser and Dolphin browser and it works only for http connection. It means that I can't use sync, market, maps.... The "apn type" in settings must me leaved blank because if I write "default" won't work anything.
I've found report bug about this issue (http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2690) however seem that no one would fix it.
Obviously https with my wap connection works fine thought any other phones (iphone included) and pc (tether with android).
Can you help me (us) ?

ok this is what happend since the post. luckly for me i had a backup of my os after i got all the settings correct and everything the way i want it. i do it for this just in case i do something stupid and not know how to correct the issue. so i reset the unit and then resotred and i was able to get it working. i am thinking that there must be a hidden proxy somewhere that i am not aware of or maybe tmobile is finally getting hip to what i have been doing for years. but on a side note although i.e. and opera9 did not work opera mini5 and opera 10 did as well as uweb but i amaguessing that its a hidden proxy. btw is there anyway to swap out opera9 for 10 as the default browser

Hey guys,
Just stumbled upon the way to get Orbot working on Froyo.
It's not too tough, just go grab the new Firefox Mobile beta...
Once you've installed it, go to the add-ons menu and get "Proxy Mobile" from ProjectGuardian.org
Restart firefox mobile, connect to tor through orbot, run a check using firefox, and voila! It works!
