hello

it seems my iPad had caught some weird diseas
symptoms:
- some games cannot connect to Internet even though I'm on wifi
- YouTube cannot load and gives an error
- links in the Mail app dont open

details:
- I am connected to the wifi, and safari load perfectly, but in some games, they sometimes ask for Internet and ask me to connect and try again even though I already am
- when I open YouTube app, it starts loading, but then gives the message "cannot connect to YouTube"
- I cannot open any external links in my email app. it seems that the email adds the letter "o" at the beginning of every URL, making it invalid. I really don't know why it does that.
here's a screenshot: http://db.tt/TqmJNWFO
notice the letter "o" at the beginning of the URL. this happens with any link I try to open. however, I can still copy the link and open I safari without the addition of the "o"



all seems really frustrating.. I hope I don't have to restore :(

any help guys
 
nvm guys,

[FIXED]

- Mail app not opening links:
I installed Browser Changer tweak. I haven't defined any browser in the Select Browser setting of the tweak. once I did, Mail opened links normally to my selected browser.

- YouTube not loading:
I installed Browser Changer tweak. then in it's settings, I turned on Apply to: YouTube. meanwhile, I had no browser defined in the Select Browser settings of the tweak. once I did (selected a browser in the tweak), YouTube worked normally again.

- Games not connecting:
not fully resolved yet. maybe it's just these games I have that cannot connect due to their own server issues.

hope this helps anyone who'll have this issue. it's kinda silly at the end :p
 
Maybe your Game connection problem is also due to Browser Changer tweak. Why don't you uninstalled it to check?

nope, checked
the game had an update today, and since then I had no connection problems. probably been from their servers from the biginning
