I'm using opera mini 4.0 and The error I'm getting is saying "Failed to connect to the internet" I can get on to Myspace, and get on to some friends pages, but not other's pages and i get that "failed to conect to the internet" error message. Is this an IT setting? It started a little bit after I set up my email. or is this a issue with opera mini. I found this on opera's forum
"Failed to connect to the Internet" => "check APN"
I noticed that if someone says "My opera mini says Failed to connect to the Internet, what should I do?", someone answers "Check your APN settings.". But everyone forgets that OM4 uses *only* domain name when connecting to transcoder (OM2 used only IP, OM3 used both) and needs DNS servers to be set correctly.
Opera Mini 3 :
- Socket server.operamini.com
- Socket 12.34.56.78 (I can't remember the actual IP)
- HTTP server.operamini.com
- HTTP 12.34.56.78
So if DNS fails, OM still can connect using IP address of proxy.
Opera Mini 4 tries to connect in this order:
- Socket server4.operamini.com
-
http://server4.operamini.com
...and if DNS fails, phone doesn't know wtf is server4.operamini.com and so can't connect.
So always (especially if OM3 works and OM4 doesn't) check what DNS server(s) are set.
In case you don't know what to set, you can try these:
OpenDNS: (all over the world) 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
Teo LT: (Lithuania) 212.59.2.2, 212.59.1.1
...or ask your provider.
p.s. what does "java.io.IOException DNS error" mean? (builtin browser works fine with same settings)
Is the DNS server a BB setting??? if so, How do i change it?
