How can I fix it?

Youtube won't work.
Markey won't work.
gmail won't work.

Then suddenly they work.

I don't get it. It's just too dodgy.

try to use nslookup in your adb terminal.

it seemed something wrong with your dns server.

Try to ping youtube

ping www.youtube.com

etc.

If your ping is working then you dont have a problem with your DNS.

HI,

> ping www.youtube.com

adb shell
$ ping youtube.com

This works fine.
PING youtube.com (74.125.47.93) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from yw-in-f93.1e100.net (74.125.47.93): icmp_seq=1 ttl=49 time=304 ms

I'm not rooted so...
$ nslookup android.clients.google.com
nslookup: permission denied

$ su nslookup android.clients.google.com
su: permission denied

However a shell from a pc shows :
nslookup android.clients.google.com
Server: 208.67.222.222
Address: 208.67.222.222#53

Non-authoritative answer:
android.clients.google.com canonical name = android.l.google.com.
Name: android.l.google.com
Address: 74.125.235.75

The phone is using wifi on the same network as the pc so does that
mean DNS is not the problem?

Thanks for your help.

Your DNS deosnt seem to be a problem.

But since you are not rooted and are not able to nslookup from your
adb shell, i feel you have permission issues.

did you try running your app in an emulator.
One more question. is your phone at all connecting to any websites?

Hi Shawn

Are you behind corporate firewall ?

I also get these issues. But not when I 'm outside corporate firewall.

Try to completely deactivate WLAN in the settings and reactivate it again. That helps on my Nexus One 4 times out of 5 anyway.
