PPCGeeks - [ROM] 08/03/11 | SPRINT LOVERS | 2.3.3 | 4.24.651.1

Ok I have a very specific issue and am wondering if anyone can duplicate it. I use the Engadget app by AOL a lot to keep up on all the latest cell phone info. When looking at the articles in this app, often they have a button to click to play a video they have linked to. For a little while now when I click on the button to play a video, and then choose "Internet" when prompted whether to use YouTube or Internet. My Android browser opens and flashes once and then just goes blank and never ends up loading anything. I had a friend of mine try it today on an unrooted EVO he just got and it works fine. I just wiped all items in recovery and flashed the most recent all in one version of the ROM, but I still get the same thing. If anyone wants to try this out, when opening the Engadget app I select the imobile catagory and an example of a video that fails is in the article "LG Optimus 2X 1080p video surfaces, captures a slow day at the docks". It is about nine articles down on the second page right now.

Thanks,

I don't have that app, but I have been having trouble accessing some websites on my phone for a few hours now.

I was on WIFI/4g/3g and it's all slow...

Also, my touch buttons on the bottom don't light up.

My buttons still light up. I tried 3G and 4G, no WiFi though. Been using this ROM for a while now with no issues. I'm pretty sure it isn't related to the ROM.

Thanks, I guess it will be another wipe for me.

I did exactly what you suggested. When I tried to play the Internet version of the video it did EXACTLY the same as your phone. When I tried using the You Tube method the video played.

I tried another video on the engadget site and when selecting internet as method of playing video I got a blank but when using you tube it worked. Seems like this app wont connect to the internet. My guess is the problem is in the rom and Chris should check it out.

I was on the net all day yesterday, and then towards the end of the day my internet stopped working for certain sites (both 3G and 4G). The site would load halfway and then just stop. I don't know if it is still doing that or not. But I have been using this ROM for a while now (still on 12-31 version) and it has never done that before.

Also, this morning when I checked my phone at 7:00 am I noticed my time said 4:00 pm. I rebooted the phone and it had the right time for a bit and changed back to the wrong time after a few minutes. It's only on the HTC time widget, up in the top corner has the correct time. It has been doing this ever since the latest Sprint update (which is cooked into the ROM). I have my time zone set manually instead of "automatically get from network" or whatever, and it is still doing it. When I tap the weather widget it lists some weird city I have never heard of (presumably in Africa).

Ok thanks for your time, that is exactly the same results I get. The YouTube app will play but the Internet browser won't. However on a stock EVO they both work. Chris would you be willing to try this experiment on your device and see what you get?

Has anyone else tried this, or would anyone else?

I still think it's a Sprint network issue. Page loads halfway then stops on 3G and 4G.

I don't think it's sprint, because it did it to me on wifi too
