@andrew Tell me one thing some people have wifi ON whereas most of them depend upon 2g and 3g because of battery issue. So if wifi is not there i should still expect this kind of error or issue???. I mean i can not consistently poll to any website for news , if yes how, even when most does not have wifi ? is there any generic solution to my problem.?
