Strange Network Issues with Apps & Jailbroken 3G
|
So I have tracked a very strange issue. I have two (possibly more but these are the only 2 that I have noticed so far) applications that seem to start having network access trouble after about a day. The simple work-around is to reboot my iPhone and all works fine for about another day (wish I had discovered this before I did a complete restore and re-jailbreak). Please note that all other apps using the network work just fine.
The trouble:
- After about a day the "Bank of America" application, which is just a front end for their web service through iSafari, begins to come up with the error "Bank of America Mobile Banking cannot open the page because no internet connection was detected." This only happens when you click on the sign-in button, and the app works fine for Locations (which uses the net connection).
- After the same amount of time the "Remember the Milk" app, begins to exhibit the same behavior. The app starts, but when you go to sync you get "No connection There was a problem establishing a connection to the Internet. Please check your network settings and try again."
Trouble shooting done (no effect):
- Tried on WiFi
- Tried on 3G Network
- Tried on Edge Network
- Cleared Cache, cookies, and history from safari
- Turned on and off airplane mode.
- Turned OpenSSH off and on.
A reboot of the iPhone will take care of it. (I did not see if this issue resulted before jailbreaking as I really can't live without some of my jailbroken apps for the day to test it).
iPhone apps (short list): iPhone Software 2.2, Jailbroken (QuickPwn on MacBook Pro), Winterboard (with a couple of themes running), SBSettings, Notifier, iBlacklist, SpringJumps, PdaNet (not used really), Respring, Flashlight. Pretty clean install as I just restored. Tested the functionality of both apps in question after each install and there was no effect on the functionality. It took a day before failure.
If anyone has any suggestions or recommendations, I'd love to give it a try. Let me know.
