IOException when trying to read HttpConnection input (MIDP 2.0-CLDC 1.0)

Question

Hello!
I'm using the Java ME Platform SDK 3.0, on a Windows XP machine.
The midlet's code runs successfully with the emulator, but when i execute it on my motorola c650 (MIDP 2.0-CLDC 1.0), whenever i call the getInputStream method, it hangs for a while (say, 1 second), and then i get an IOException at that point.
I already tried:
- call getResponseCode before; i get an IOException at that point
- use POST method instead of GET
- call openOutputStream before openInputStream
- use getDataInputStream instead of getInputStream
HttpConnection c = (HttpConnection)Connector.open(url);
c.setRequestMethod(HttpConnection.GET);
InputStream is = c.openDataInputStream();
...Nothing helps... but the same code works on a motorola v3 black (MIDP 2.0-CLDC 1.1)
Thanks in advance!

Oh,
these are a little bit old handsets, aren't they?
Anyway I can remember that especially on C650 we've experienced some firmware issues. However if this happens also on V3 I can only recomend to check the access point configuration. These old motorolas must be set up correctly and differently for using internal browser (using a WAP access point) and differently for using from within Java applications (using an internet access point).
