Orizon problem with cookies on Orizon

terrangirl · 10-10-2011, 08:17 AM

Hello all,
I recently got my new Orizon

. Everything works fine and I love the wifi feature, since I can check a few things while on the go, but...
I have not managed to view my gmail inbox, while as soon as I connect the wifi and get the google homepage, it shows me as signed in.
So when I navigate to gmail, I get an error that says I have not enabled cookies on my browser.
I saw that the latest firmware has a bugfix for cookies, so I checked which firmware my device had and it is the latest!!!
I wonder if I am doing something wrong.

Does anyone know how I could solve this problem

I have no cookie problem. My inbox shows up, with a message advising to use the html simplified version.

Are you sure you are up do date ? it's build 1398 for me. (in the about screen)

I used to have that problem but it seems to work for me after the last (or second last I can't remember which) firmware update.

yeap 1398 is firmware's built I got it with, it was the first thing I checked, since I wanted to have the latest firmware.
I checked the file cookiecollection.db and it seems that there are cookies stored for google accounts. Still though whenever I access gmail, I get this message : "We've detected a problem with your cookie settings" and I get advised to eather enable cookies or clear cache and cookies, or adjust privacy settings...
All these options though seem not available with the orizon browser
I think I will have to talk with the support

Have you tried deleting (back it up first) the cookies file?

terrangirl · 10-13-2011, 02:20 PM

I was just thinking of doing that Jellby. It seems that there is a cookie mismatch actually, since my account on goodreads works just fine and it needs cookies too.. I will try it and post results

terrangirl · 10-14-2011, 06:02 PM

I did clear the cookies by deleting the data in the cookies table in cookiecollection.db file... but still no luck with gmail.
I wrote to the Bookeen support and got the following answer

Quote:

Thank you for having contacted Bookeen Customer Service.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to open a gmail account. Our team is
working on this problem.

Please accept my sincere apologies for the inconveniences.

Kind regards,

So I was wondering EowynCarter when you said

did you mean Gmail, or some other email inbox?
In general has anyone had any luck with Gmail on Orizon?

bob123 · 10-14-2011, 07:49 PM

I have tried it with gmail an it works.
