cell phone issue

[JackCrafty]

Since only a few of you are having major issues, we haven't been able to figure out what the problem is (yet).

4dog, what is your phone service provider and browser?  Maybe there is common ground there with others having the problem.  If it's random, and there is nothing in common with anyone having these problems, then it has to be fixed one phone at a time.  That means you will probably have to contact your phone provider for help.   

I'm using verizon and never had any issues.  Anyone using verizon and having issues out there?

at&t  ,,browsing through google, its just funny  because for almost a yr never had a prob...until recently.if i gotta go to at&t no prob ..having issues with email through aol as well ,might be a related issue.

[JackCrafty]

Yeah, if you can get through with AT&T, tell them your issue.  I had ATT before I switched.  I was always having to install upgrades for this or that and it was driving me nuts.


Edit:  Latest news says that the last Android update has LOTS of glitches and causing problems...

Just letting you know, mine is the same way.  AT&T.  I can clear the cookies and it will last an hour or so, then I'm "BANNED".  This happens whether I'm logged in or I'm not and just a guest. Last few weeks or so.

try using a different browser, try dolphin browser. its alot more customizable.

[SLIMBOB]

BOWMAN53....My problem is, I have no idea what you just said.   It may be what 4dog said.  I've just been a bad boy, and sweet lovable dolphins will do me no good.

stop pokin your thumb in that hole on their heads..its how they breath!

Are you guys having this issue when your phone is using your home internet or only when using your phone data plan?
It is a cookie issue, SMF forums has had this problem before many years ago.

[SLIMBOB]

Phone data plan.  Never an issue on my lap top.

[Justin Snyder]

I believe I have isolated the issue. We have had a lot of spammers lately and have banned them. Unfortunately some of their ip addresses are actually the cell carriers ip, ones you guys use also. (Companies roll these around and we all share them.)
What you can do is keep clearing your cookies. If one of those bad ip addresses shows up in your phone the system will ban you. I think this issue goes back to one spammer. I hope it is fixed.

Here is what I need to fix the problem. Post the date you got the error message. I can track the ip and see if it is one used by a spammer and drop the ban from that individual ip. I have already dropped the ban on a few thay 4dog and others were using so you should have less issues.

[SLIMBOB]

Thanks.  I went the entire day yesterday and it never happened.  For a few weeks it was every time I logged on, so maybe it's fixed.

now it seems like im being timed out no matter if i want to stay logged on forever..i get about an hour on and then poof...banned yet agaon...thanks for still workin on it.

[Justin Snyder]

4dog, the log doesn't show you having a banned issue today. Did you get a banned message today?

[4dog]
