M.CNN.COM not loading.

[Tattrpuff]

So since I've received the 1.47 update I have not been able to load cnn mobile...I can click on articles in the news widget and it takes me to the full site and works fine. Just when I click on my bookmark or type cnn.com in the address bar...gives me "The server failed to communicate. Try again later. Then the web page not available page. I have cleared cache, cookies, and history. I've flashed different rom and everyone of them do not load this page. It worked prior to 1.47. I am rooted, but it stopped when I was stock. I can live without it since I get news updates through the widget, but annoying when I just want to browse.

I am running non-rooted on .6 and dont have a problem loading the mobile cnn page through the browser. Wish I could provide more info on how to fix the issue but it looks like you tried everything I would have tried already. Have you done a factory reset? That may be a last resort option. But if you have loaded other ROMs and are seeing the same issue there, then a factory restrore may not fix you up either.

It loads in Dolphin HD.

Yes I factory reset after every rom flash. It actually does load in Dolphin. Seems like stock browser is at fault...but why just that, and really why just mine.

Works for me. Go to www.foxnews.mobi or download the official Fox News app in the Market. It's nice (and free!) FOXNews.com - Fox News Launches Android Application

I'm running stock OTA Froyo, and CNN Mobile website runs great. I can't run the videos on the site, though the other embedded video sites run fine.

try -

1. clear all browser cookies, history, etc.
2. toggle GPS on/off
3. power down and then power back up

Works for me. Go to FOX News - Home or download the official Fox News app in the Market. It's nice (and free!) FOXNews.com - Fox News Launches Android Application

Done...no change.

Got it figured out!! So when you punch it into the stock browser and bookmark...they automatically adds "www" you can not access CNN mobile site with "www" prefaced. Simple solutions are often the most overlooked. Thanks guys!

i was getting a strange outcome recently with cnn.com. normally it would revert to m.cnn.com which was great. however, starting yesterday afternoon, m.cnn.com AND/OR cnn.com on my EVO browser would always revert to cnnmobile.com. cnnmobile.com is AWFUL! the formatting sucks AND i believe it is some kind of shiiitty international edition. finally i did my fix above this morning and it now reverts to the correct m.cnn.com. i thought it might help you too.

UPDATE - i discovered what caused my problem. if you go to m.cnn.com and for whatever reason you click on the World/International Edition link - it will always default back to that Word/International Edition (cnnmobile.com) when you try to go to m.cnn.com. the only fix is to clear all browser cookies and history and then do a power down and power up.

They need to get that site together...come on! Or better yet get an app, so I don't have to deal with things like this!! I paid for my iPhone one...I will gladly pay for this as well.

I wish they had an app for that...use to have one on my BB.

i keep getting this problem. now once a day for the last few days. very annoying.

for some reason it wants to keep changing my default and redirect me to the international mobile version (cnnmobile.com) instead of the USA version (m.cnn.com).

anyone else?
