LG EnV Touch won't connect to the internet!

I have had this phone for almost 2 years (almost time for that upgrade!), & it's a piece of crap.. i've had it replaced numerous times & even had to buy a new battery because the old one wouldn't take a charge at all. a few days ago, my mobile internet stopped working. it'll load & then finally say "Polaris Browser cannot open the page. Connection timeout!!! press refresh to retry." but that still doesn't work.
is there anyway to fix this without having to go to a verizon store? everytime i go in for help, well, they're not much help.

I can't begin to imagine your frustrations, I would be so upset if I had multiple replacements in a two year period. I had the Envtouch and upgraded to a smart phone with a touch screen because of my great experience with the EnvTouch. Let's get to the bottom of this right away.
 Were you using a particular application when this started? Have you ever been able use the internet on this particular device? Please remove the battery and reinsert. I know you've probably done that before but that forces the device to look for current coverage. Please dial *228 press send then choose option 1. Please retest the browser.
Lastly try a reset on the device by following these steps: 
Resets phone settings to factory default.  User data will NOT be erased.
From the main screen, tap Menu ::
Tap Settings & Tools
Scroll to / Tap Phone Settings
Scroll to / Tap Security
Enter Phone Lock Code ???? Displays,
enter the 4 digit lock code ( default: last 4 digits of phone number ).
Tap Reset Default
Preference settings will be set to factory defaults.  Your user data will NOT be erased.  Press <OK> to continue. displays.
Tap OK to continue.
Tap Revert
Please let us know if these steps help. We definitely want to have you in a working great device. Also you mentioned you've had the device for almost 2 years. You may already be eligible to upgrade! Dial #UPG then send to check your date.
Thank you

  • IPod touch won't connect to the internet.

    I am sharing the connection from my MacBook Pro 17", late 2007 (with Airport Extreme). I have an internet connection from a Verizon wireless usb modem. It has always worked before on my iPod touch 4g, when I was running iOS 4.3.4. However, I just updated to iOS 5.0.1, and now I can't load any webpages. If I set a password on the network (this has helped with problems before), the moment I connect on my iPod I have full connection strength - but I can't load webpages. If I don't set a password, it doesn't show a connection in the status bar (and, of course, I can't connect).
    I may try restoring from my 4.3.4 backup and reinstalling iOS 5.0.1 (my father suggests this).
    A few additional details which may or may not be relevant:
    - My 4.3.4 was on a tethered jailbreak
    - My iOS 5 is pwned and jailbroken, although I still have the original file.
    - My computer is running Snow Leopard 10.6.8, although I may have updated to Lion by the time this discussion has finished.
    Hope you can help!
    Thanks in advance,

    Very common with iPod touch jailbreaks. The only way to fix it is to un-jailbreak it. There is something either wrong with the ipsw file or the jailbreaking tool. If you REALLY still want to ruin your ipod, I recommend redn0w. Just BEWARE that it will slow down your ipod by about 50%, and that you will experiance USB issues if jailbreaking iOS 5.0.1.

  • My i-pod 3-generation touch won't connect to the internet but the network information is active on it

    I connected the i-pod to my wireless internet but the i-pod keeps saying it is not connected.

    What do you mean by "the network information is active"?
    Do other devices successfully connect to that network?
    Does the iPod successfully connect to othr networks?

  • My iPod Touch 2nd generation won't connect to the Internet

    After restoring my iPod Touch 2nd gen to factory settings because that's what iTunes advised me to do after doing the iTunes update a week ago, my iPod won't connect to the internet anymore. I was able to connect to our wifi but it won't go to any website, to iTunes, etc. I'm 100% sure the problem isn't our wifi because I'm using it right now with my laptop so it's not the wireless problem. Before restoring my iPod to factory settings iti has always worked and I never had a problem connecting it. I tried restoring it again but it still didn't work. I already also reset our router but still no luck. I wish someone could help me asap!! Thank you.

    You can try:
    - reset:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off an then backon your router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

    I have 2 of them that only connected for a day and then reset network settings and they connected again for a day now resetting network settings does not fix it either. My iphone used to work with my home network but after upgrading to the latest OS which is the same versions as the ipods it no longer works either. Acts the same as the ipods. It would seem that the latest tweeks to the OS is the problem with wifi connectivity.

  • My iPod 8GB won't connect to the internet.

    My iPod won't connect to the internet. It says I'm connected to my Wi-Fi connection, but when I try go on Safari it says I'm not connected to the internet. I resetted my iPod and my modem but it didn't help. I tried everything to get it working, but nothing seems to work. Help please?!

    Assuming other devices successfully connect to the internet via wifi:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing is lost.

  • My ipod's apps won't connect to the internet.

    the apps on my ipod touch 5 won't connect to the internet anymore, even apps from apple like the appstore. only safari works, but with some sites it says there is no safe connection(like with twitter). but it does work with google
    how can i get rid of this problem?
    my ipod runs 7.0.2 and i checked for software updates, there were none. i also checked for app updates but as i said the app store doesn't connect with the internet either.

    Does it have this problem wehn connect to another network?
    Did the iOS device connect OK before to this network?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router

  • My macbook won't connect to the internet even though my router/connection is fine

    Two days ago my computer was fine. Since yesterday it won't connect to the internet. I've been in touch with my service provider and determined that my router is fine and everything is correctly connected. I've rebooted my modem, restarted my computer, taken dhcp offline and put it back on, repaired disk permissions... Not necessarily in that order but nothing had work. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    We've determined, then, that you use your cable rather than wifi for your signal. Approach this in an organized way:
    1. ISP. Check your ISP's webmail to make sure you can send and mail email using the webmail interface. If you can, that means your ISP can still send and receive emails - if only on webmail. Useful if your normal email is malfuctioning, like now.
    2. Modem. Unplug and reconnect your modem, and make sure the connection is snug.
    3. Cables. Make sure all of your cables and plugs are connected; it's easy to disconnect an ethernet cable while cleaning, or after random kicking.
    4. Connection wizard. Go to Mail/Window/Connection Doctor, and take down the results.
    Most of the time, you can trace the problem after following these steps. If there's still no luck, provide detailed info on your results.

  • What do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet

    what do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet. i have contacted apple support and they said to change from wep to wpa2 but when i change it to wpa2 and type in password and connect on my laptop it says the saved setting on this computer for the network do not match the require ments of the network

    My 2nd gen works fine with WPA2 and AES encryption.
    You may need to go back and start over.  Reset the router back to factory defaults, log on as the admin, set up security, DHCP, and make sure the IP address pool has enough IP addresses to lease to ALL of the computers/devices that will connect to that the router.

  • My MacBook Pro won't connect to the Internet, but my phone and PC will.

    My MacBook Pro won't connect to the Internet. My iPhone has no problem doing so, and neither does my PC. I think it's something to do with my DNS, but I'm not sure. My network connections say that both my Ethernet or FireWire are failed. What's wrong with my MacBook? Is there a simple way to fix this?

  • MacBook Pro won't connect to the internet after standby

    Hallo all,
    I have the following strange problem with my macbook pro:
    - after going in stand by and returning in operating mode the mac won't connect to the internet, I have to follow the procedure in order to retry to connect but It does'not work. Go in network preferences, try to change the DNS, use and not use DHCP and so on but nothing change.
    - Mac is working in ethernet, I can see other macs and pcs
    - When I change the network to connect, same problem even if I turn off the mac.
    I have the same problem with Iphone !!!!
    I have linksys router and modem but I think that the reason could be a setting in mac.
    Anyone can help me???

    I tried re-installing Mountain Lion 10.8.3 but it didn´t help.
    Assuming your can access email ok ?
    First, install the OS X Mountain Lion Update v10.8.4 (Combo)
    Then restart your Mac. That will reinstall any missing system files.
    Then try Safari.

  • My 1st Generation time capsule won't connect to the internet thru a new motorola sb6121 - get continuously flashing yellow light. Using a router in between the modem and capsule yields good but slower connection to internet. Any thoughts?

    My 1st Generation time capsule won't connect to the internet thru a new motorola sb6121 - get continuously flashing yellow light. Using a router in between the modem and capsule yields good but slower connection to internet. Any thoughts?

    Thanks for your response
    Let me give the history - I started with an Apple Express being fed thru a D-Link  EBTR 2310 cable Router from an RCA DCM315 Modem (Pure). Comcast service all the way.
    Got the 1st generation TC in 2008 and merely replaced the Airport Express with the TC. Worked ok
    A year or two ago I did try removing the modem and feeding the TC directly from the modem. Resulted in the same condition I have now - Continuous flashing amber on the TC. So I put the router back in the chain.
    Some time later, at the recommendation of a Comcast rep, I replaced the router with (a Belkin F5D 5231) to see if speed and dropout problems would be improved. I thought it helped some at the time but now I am not so sure.
    Last week I decided to see if a new modem would help with download speeds. So I got another pure cable modem (Motorola SB 6121- high on the Comcast recommended list).
    Got up and running easily with Comcast help and with the modem connected directly to a computer.
    Next I put the TC in the link and again could not get past the TC continuing to flash amber. Although I did get connected to the internet with this configuration I lost connection two both of my printers - one connected by USB and the other wirelessly to the TC. Again everything works fine when I put the Belkin router back in the system.
    However with the router in there, the modem shows the downstream connection to be 10/100 ethernet speed. (Modem light changes color for indicating speeds.}
    I have gone thru all of the combinations of powering down/ up, but all stays the same.
    I can live with what I have but something still doesn’t seem right.
    Thanks again

  • Replacing an Airport Express with a Time Capsule but it won't connect to the internet.

    Hello, I hope somebody can help.
    I am trying to replace an Airport Express with a 2TB Time Capsule but it won't connect to the internet, via an ADSL modem.
    I have tried everything I can think of, powering down all devices, re-setting all devices, but nothing seems to solve the problem.
    When I first tried to set up the Time Capsule, there was an option to replace the Airport Express using the same settings.
    But there were repeated error messages of 'No DNS Servers' and 'PPPoE server couldn't be found'.
    I also had messages that the password for PPPoE wasn't correct, but when I plug the Airport Express back in again, everything works fine.
    What could the problem be?

    99% of issues with authentication are wrong password or wrong username.. eg it can be strange like the user name is missing the domain.. whereas the Airport Express works fine without it.
    Ring your ISP and make doubly sure you have exactly the correct username and password.
    If it still doesn't work, put the adsl modem back into router mode and try it again directly on the modem.. if it works ok on the modem but fails on the TC that is possible and can be caused by pppoe client using incorrect authentication type, CHAP or PAP which the TC does not allow you to select AFAIK.. some ISP do not give enough time to get the router to switch on auto to the correct authentication method.
    In the end run the modem as router and bridge the TC. It will work just as well for most installations in bridge as the modem in bridge.
