Did you even set up the internet settings on the phone? If so, provide details. Your post is far too vague.

I don't know the interface of your phone but if you go into settings and then application settings, browser settings, did you ensure it's using the correct APN ID? Samsung is a little tricky that way.

changed the browser setting to MMS instead of WAP. APN is correct internet.fido.ca . at least this time google loaded and i did a search and it worked. but all the other sites dont work, and also my widgets.
