Hi.  I am glad you like the phone but I do understand how frustrating it can be if the web is slow.   I can certainly look into this for you.   Try to dial *228 option 2 on your phone to update your roaming to see if it goes faster.   If that does not work,
How long has this been going on?
Did you download any new applications before it started going slow?
Is it only certain websites that goes slow or is it all sites you try to access?
Waiting on your reply 
Thanks!

  • Why do I get the error message "unable to load page (HTTP 502) when I try to open Mobile Web?

    I have an LG Octane 3 basic phone.   Does everything I need, phone and text, and I never was interested in web or e-mail capabilities until I recently upgraded our plan to the "More Everything" and was able to use data and check e-mail and access the internet.   Whenever I try to open Mobile Web, I get the error message "unable to load page (HTTP 502)".    As of March 31, 2015, all of us basic phone users lose the "Mobile Email" app on our phones, and will have to access web versions of our e-mail via the web.  Which is currently unavailable and doesn't work.
    Over a week ago, did a chat session with a tech support rep, and she indicated that either she or an engineer would contact me with how to fix the problem.   Have not heard anything from anybody, and the deadline is approaching quickly.   Have no need of all the excess features of a smart phone, nor do I wish to be forced to jettison a perfectly working phone for my needs and buy something I don't want to be able to do 2 simple things.............check e-mail to see if there's something that needs to be answered right away, and to check traffic reports when I'm on the road, or find something in an area with which I'm not familiar.     Not really too much to ask, you would think....   )
    Has anyone else had this same problem, and if so, how do we fix it....???  My next move is a phone call, but those haven't always been very productive.
    If any of you have any ideas why this error keeps coming up and the web can't load, and some on how to fix it, I would really appreciate some advice.
    Thanks in advance.

    Since the chat session got no reply, I contacted Verizon by phone and a very nice level 2 tech created a trouble ticket and sent it up the food chain.  Got a call back, maybe 2 days later, and had a nice, although very long session with a higher level tech.  They had determined that the browser for the LG Octane is an old one and no longer supported by Verizon.    We tried everything we could to download the Opera browser, but since I was totally unable to get Mobile Web to work, couldn't do it.   The only other possible "fix" was to totally reset the phone to factory specs and try it again.   That would mean a lot of work on my part to move anything I didn't want to disappear off the phone, and find a place to forward texts that had to be saved.   Caught our tenants lying about why the rent was late (again), and need that for when I put them back on a lease....  
    Long story short is that unless we try this total reset, which isn't a sure fix, either, anyone who isn't able to access the Mobile Web with the LG Octane will have to change their plan to avoid paying for data that you can't access using any method. 
    I ran a test with an app that I knew was no longer valid.....that was sending photos to PixPlace.   Got the exact same error message as when trying to access Mobile Web to get the web version of my e-mail.   That just verified that the 502 error is, at least in the LG Octane, for an app that no longer works.   After today, we'll get the same thing when we try to access Mobile E-Mail.
    Have to admit, it's a real ****-off, but this shouldn't surprise me, since Verizon won't repair older copper phone lines if you are in an area where FIOS is offered. 
    I am going to immediately change my husband's and my cell phone plan to one without data, and see what I can find that will still give unlimited calls and text.  The way my luck runs, they won't offer one for a decent price.  The other half has some very long-winded friends and he was always running over minutes, and some months are very text-heavy and I'd go over my limit.   Absolutely HATE touch screens, and am not looking forward to having to get a new phone.  

  • How can I get my Mac to connect faster to the Internet? My wifi connection is fine....don't know why Safari and other web browsers are so slow.

    How can I get my Mac to connect faster to the Internet? My wifi connection is fine....don't know why Safari and other web browsers are so slow.

    If possible, connect to your router with Ethernet and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?

  • HT1338 why is my MacBook Air running slow and I bought the 11 inch with all memory and turbo boost

    why is my MacBook Air running slow and I bought the 11 inch with all memory and turbo boost

    Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
    Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
    If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. Any change?
    Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
    Log out and log back in. Any change?
    Enable Private Browsing in the Safari menu. Any change?
    Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
    If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
    If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
    Again, if only Safari is involved, open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Safari, if it's checked. Any change?
    Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
    If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
    If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?

  • Why in the world would Apple make the track pad LESS useful in OS Lion?  I hate that I can't g back to the top of a web page with a singe swipe.  And of course all the other gestures are totally reversed.  IMHO, this was not an imporvement.

    No one here works for Apple.
    Go to System Preferences > Trackpad > Scroll & Zoom, and uncheck Scroll direction: Natural.

  • I cannot watch video's in the mobile web without a currect flash player for mobile phone! what virsion of player i need?

    I can't watch video's in the mobile web without a currect flash player for mobile phone's. what do I need to do(what is the currect virsion)?
    If you have an answer just send it to me by e-mail!
    [email protected]

    If you find anything out please share.  I have flash projects (SWF) files created in Captivate 5 that play fine in Flash and Dreamweaver, but freeze up on the web in safari, firefox, opera and chrome.  Even files that used to play just fine.  This upgrade has been a nightmare - I have spent hours troubleshooting to no avail.  It does not seem to be a problem for windows users - only macs.

  • Why is the iPhone so BAD at connecting back to mobile networks?

    Reading various threads it would seem that Apple gave up sometime ago making a device that actually works well at mobile connectivity. Their antennae technology must be as out of date as their map data or as poorly tested.
    Quite often I come out of the tube or a lift and have "no service". This I accept but it seems to take a lifetime for the phone to realise a signal is available. It could be down to mobile mast registration so is really a network issue but a 4 year old bog standard Nokia phone seems to cope ok getting a signal at places an iPhone can only dream of and shows the fact that it has a signal in a heart beat.
    A fix I have found is to make a call. If no signal is available then rightly this will not work but if the iPhone is just being as intelligent as a household brick this seems to do the trick triggering mobile mast registration or the phone to wake up and hey presto i have 3 bars of connectivity increasing to 5 as i get more into the open. However, this does not seem to work just by triggering a data request, you just get the "no Internet" available warning.
    So either calls register the device quicker which would make some sense as they can use GSM or the device always tries to make a call triggering a search but if no service is recorded never tries to search so it can send data.
    Regardless of which, why is the phone so BAD at detecting and registering with networks after all this is the raison d'être of a mobile device.
    Do we ever think the Apple will stop for a moment adding meaningly upgrades and examine this boring but fundamental requirement?

  • Why is the Fios mobile app not available in the App Store?

    Why is the Fios mobile app not available in the App Store?

    Sorry to say but they have. And even advertised it on their home page as recently as today. You can view about 70 different channels on your iPhone or iPad. Anyone else out there who knows the answer?

  • Why is the itunes download so slow

    why is the itunes download so slow - I am trying to download itunes update to recognize my new ipod touch 5th generation and my pc will not even show it in itunes, in trying to download the update the speeds are so slow that it is estimating download time in days.  I have stopped and started the apple in services, but it is still unrecognized.

    you know very well it has nothing to do with itunes or the modem/router.  apple servers are very very slow and its an absolute disgrace.
    you can download from third party servers at twice the speeds (at your own risk)
    Apple is the second largest company in the world and they treat customners in this way

  • Why my Toshiba mobile hard drive (1TB) can not be used in the macbook air?

    Why my Toshiba mobile hard drive (1TB) can not be used in the macbook air?

    If you are speaking of the USB 3.0 Canvio, you are not alone. Call Toshiba and check on their progress in alleviating the problem. I heard they are blaming Apple, but since theirs is the only drive that exhibits this problem, I think the burden is on Toshiba.
    Some users have reported that by using a micro USB 2.0 connector (see bottom picture), instead of the 3.0 that comes with the drive, that it is a workaround. Notice that the 3.0 connector has sort of a "dual head" nature to the construction. One part of it is 2.0 USB micro compatible. I've never tried it myself though.

  • Why is the text so small on this web site???

    Why is the message text so small on this web
    site?? It is almost impossible to read!!
    The navigation text is tiny as well, I cant
    read a word of the navigation bar at the top
    of this page.
    If this is produced using Netweaver, I am
    very concerned.
    Come on SAP, this needs addressing.

    On my computer it is OK, but I have seen this on other machines too. But this surely is not connected to NetWeaver, as you surely knew
    I'll forward this to SDN personell.

  • HT1355 Why is the new iOS 6 so slow on the App Store?

    Why is the iOS 6 so slow on the App Store?

    Agree the new ios6 is much slower. I found this post by doing a search to find out if it was only me. I've done off & on & a soft reset. Neither helped. Everything seems to load much slower & hangs.
    Maybe the new apps aren't optimized yet. However, I had one of my worst experiences with the Apple App Store. One would think they'd know how to optimize their own site & app.
    I just hope it's not a bloat issue because the "upgrades" are not worth the performance trade offs to me.
    Also, the iMaps are definitely not ready for prime time. I tried getting directions between two locations that were very mainstream and the app said it couldn't provide directions. I'll take Google without turn by turn, thank you. At least let us have a choice and let the best app win.

  • HT4528 Why is the WiFi and browser so slow on iPhone 5?

    Why is the WiFi and browser so slow on iPhone 5?  I've noticed they are not as quick as other smart phones and have seen this brought up in forums.  Also, the WiFi was slow with my iPhone 4 anyone know what the deal is?
    Thanks in advance

    Sadly that spiffy reply was of no use.  Browser is so slow and in looking at 3 different iPhones I have noticed there is a serious wait for any simple page to come up like MSN maybe its the iOS maybe Safari maybe should reset daily.  Truly not impressed Apple can you here us now?  Probably not... to busy restarting or resetting.
    Truly hope it improves in a hurry.
