Guys i am facing a problem with my i550w. I surf on my default s60 browser and it used to work very well but now it doesnt open any pages and it shows all page codes (jibrish + html code), dont know whats wrong with it. Does any one know whats wrong with it?? pls help me with a solution apart from formatting and using other browser, something that can fix the problem with the current default browser. My GPS+ also is notworking now, it opens fine but when i click data download it exits.
Guys pls help me

Thanks!

Well i just got rid of a Nokia 6600 and bought this i550w, every thing is fine but what I hate is i am still using the same Symbian OS 60, I dont think this is what I paid for

After setting the Access Point in Web>Setting> General>Access Point> to "Always ask" I am unable to connect to Internet.
When I set it back to User Define (GPRS or WLAN)there is no problem. I have done it before and it was working, whenever I want to connect to the Internet there will be choice whether I want to connect through WLAN or GPRS or other access point defined.
Any idea ?
