Vodafone Live Internet Flat [updated]
[this post has been updated] We have been hearing reports from Vodafone users that ShopSavvy isn’t working over 3G. Strangely we have just as many reports that it IS working on Vodafone 3G. We originally thought it had to do with a proxy that Vodafone was using and we are close to confirming this.
Vodafone has three levels of internet service for their mobile phones (at least for the Android phones). The second tier is called “Vodafone Live! InternetFlat” which costs 4.95 Euros for 3 months, 9.95 Euros from then on (the REAL internet plan is 9.95 Euros for 3 months, 19.95 Euros from then on). It appears that with “Vodafone Live! InternetFlat” you can only visit WAPenabled web pages (of course we are still researching this). This means that since ShopSavvy (and many other applications) is NOT a WAP site it won’t work. We are working on a work around, but for now, if you have “Vodafone Live! InternetFlat” you will just have to use ShopSavvy on WiFi. If we figure out it is something else we will tell you as well.
