i had the SAME issue... TWICE..and their only answer (at verizon) was to hard reset... talk about pissed!

They sent me a new one and it was a POS... the keyboard was SOOO loose.
If someone has an answer to this please let me know... also what hacks/apps are installed

just want to see if any correspond with mine

Im getting the same message today. Internet worked great even after the ROM update. Then overnight at some point my internet dropped. Now I can't even get on the web or sync with my Exchange server. I did a IOTA a couple of times and at one point the internet dropped and then I am left with no internet again. I get the same error message when I go to a website like the original poster. I'll be damned if I need to hard reset my whole device again.

speaking with Sprint and the tech says they are doing some kind of update in FL and the southeast (i'm in ATL) and there have been some customers call and complain about this problem. i just noticed it today but not sure the cause because i just installed the new rom last night.

I am in Atlanta and I'm having the issue. I have someone on the other side of Atlanta that doesn't have this issue though.

I HAD THE SAME ISSUE THIS MORNING....Then all of sudden it started to work again?

However I was able to send an receive mail through pocket outlook. So I was connecting with the EVDO, it almost was like there was a DNS issue?

I do live in florida though....hasn't happened again since it started to work....

this is back for me. Anyone else having this issue. i had this 3 weeks ago, then last week and now this week!

This is rediculous.... Verizon sent me a replacement cause they have no clue what they are doing with these PDA phones and the keyboard was so loose it would almost slide out on its own

Any ideas fellas... a hard reset works everytime but i am tired of doing them... there has to be a software answer to this issue... but i am glad to hear that i am not the only one having it

I FIXED IT!!!!

go to start, settings, connections, connections tab, advanced, select networks, NEW

set this up as the #777 connection with
name it
name with cellular line
#777
yournumber@vzw3g.com pass=vzw
proxy tab... set as you need

then tell it to use this for the internet and work (or as you need) and it will WORK!!!

The difference is that this connection has that proxy tab!!

Hmm. I'm on Sprint, not Verizon, so this doesn't look like it would apply. Any idea what's needed for a Sprint connection?
