When sent a web address via text message, I cannot connect to it and instead get the message above. However, when I go to 'settings' on my LGG2, there is no option to turn on URL. Can anyone help me to be able to open web pages sent via text?
Re: LG G2 "Go to settings and turn on URL" but I have no option to "turn on URL"
Welcome to Android Central! Are you looking in the main System Settings, or the Messaging app's settings? Open the Messaging app, tap Menu>Settings, and see if you can find the option there.

Re: cannot connect to url
Welcome to Android Central! Which LG phone do you have, and which carrier are you using? Do you have mobile data with your plan? What do you mean by free data--are you talking about the data allotment that your plan gives you?
URL means the web address (e.g., "www.androidcentral.com" is a URL)--it's not something you turn on. If your mobile data is turned off, you'd have to turn that on.
What is the exact message that you see when you click on a link in a text message?

Re: How to turn on URL when you don't have that choice in settings
1. Go to your app list/application manager
2. Then open the Messages app under "All"
3. Hit the three-squares button.
4. And hit Settings.
5. Put a tick on Connect to URL to enable this function

Go to your messages. Make sure you don't click on any messages or threads, you need to be zoomed out, but looking at the list in order for the right menu to appear. Click on the three dots in the upper right hand corner, select settings. Once you click that, on the next list, click General Settings. On the next list, you should see Connect To URL at the top.

Re: Why am I unable to connect to a URL?
I'm assuming by the double post, your first message was posted as a guest and later you quoted yourself within a created account..
I would suspect that everyone who has a smart phone has at least one way to access the web view a built in browser.. Let's hope no one has removed the browser from your smart phone. But I'm assuming again that you're wanting to connect via a wifi/wireless devices and depending on your service provider (AT&T, Verizon etc) you will need to have or create a hot spot at your location or be allowed to access someone else wifi via a code they would allow you to use.
So without more information and detailed information on what server you're using or how you're attempting to access the net you will need to post more relevant information.
However, if you allreayd have a wifi service instaleld in yoru home but can't access this because:

- You could be in a blind spot within your home which cause the wifi signal to be lost.
- The wifi service has not be adjusted correctly as to allow for wireless/wifi devices to access the Internet within your home or dwelling.

Re: How do I connect my metro pcs mobile phone to url my phone is a LG k7 I want to connect to UR
You run a web browser (Firefox, Chrome, something) and put the URL into the address box. Unless the URL starts with something other than http:// (like ftp://), you have to use a web browser. Phones and other computers don't natively connect to URLs.
