It's a problem with your Wifi or carrier. The error is a standard one and not specific to phones or Android.
It means that when your network stack got the domain name and tried to convert it to a network address, it was unable to reach a DNS server that knew what the domain address was. For example, if you used the hosts IP address, you would *never* get this error unless the address didn't exist (and even then i think its a different exception). - Brill Pappin On Jan 12, 2:32 pm, Ankur Avlani <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi All, > > I am developing an application on Android.
