I have often browsed the CDO forums from my iphone while sitting on the train to and from work when last week an error message stopped me.

If this is a problem with my phone then if anyone has had a similar issue and can offer advice I’d be most greatful.
I have no idea after over half a year or more of access why it would suddenly stop. (If it wasn’t for the phone I would never have got back into Warhammer or Chaos Dwarfs.)
With thanks in advance

ps. If this needs to be moved then I understand. I tried to post it under the website related section but obviously thats a restricted area.
I’ve been having trouble with the site over the last couple of days anyway - it might be something to do with CDO at the moment rather than your phone.
Time wise is a bit tricky, it’s all the time, but it cut out on me about 10 days ago.
My iphone is not the most recent. It’s just a 3G but I have no problems accessing any other site I visit. I can even access the CDO wiki and sometimes the main CDO screen (with some errors at times mind), but as soon as I try to open the index page for the forums it gives the error 400 I typed earlier.
If Obsidian isn’t having any problems then I guess it must be something up with my phone. I live in Japan and that can sometimes cause problems with internet access, but in this case I doubt thats the problem.
i use both a Nokia N79 and a Nokia N97 mini (depends on what work i’m doing or if i’m free/weekend) and both phones have no problems with the forums… never looked at the main site with them though, used goolge to search for the forum and bookmarked that.
i did have a problem a while back with the main site… it gave an error about me not having quicktime installed or something and failed to load the page. but again, i have the index of the forum bookmarked so i usualy skip the main site alltogether

Just a quick update on this, I got it to work again.
I basically cleared all the data from the phones memory and did a hard restart and it’s now working fine. I truely didn’t think it was a memory issue because I had no problem with any other website, but it seems I was wrong.
Sorry to mess you guys around, and thanks again for helping out and checking your own phones.
Once again I can sit back and enjoy CDO away from home.
Nope. No worries. We used to have a number of site performance issues which took a long time to fully resolve. As a result we try to stay on top of these.
