FlyerTalk Wireless Problems/Feedback Thread
 

If you have problems with the FlyerTalk Wireless post them here. This area has been set up at:

(If you try to access it with a normal web browser you will likely just be sent back to the FT home page.)

Note:
If you are having problems logging in make sure you are entering your password in correctly as it is case sensitive and some phone browsers will capitalize the first letter in a form entry automatically. See the post by PremEx below for details.

Works like a charm, thanks!

I can't seem to log in from my fairly new Motorola E815 cell phone using Verizon Mobile Web 2.0 Browser.

I get a message from FlyerTalk Wireless after entering my username and password that says something like "Either the username or password are incorrect, or you are not authorized to access this service."

:(

SOLUTION FOUND. See Post #10 below.

Just double checked and you are authorized to access the service so, it like a compatibility issue...

Could you try it again just to make sure that it was not an error in entering username/password? Then if it is still not working could you go to the following page w/ your wireless device and let me know when you have gone to it?

Thanks,

My phone is getting redirected back to the main FT home page. The useragent is:

Could you hit the following link and let me know after you have done so?

Figured it out! Brb.

Got on! Here's what happened to me:

I tried again but with the same denial and re-direct back to the log-in page. But I did figure out what was wrong and here's what my log-in problem turned out to be.

Apparently username is not case sensitive, but password is.

My phone's browser starts every line with a capital letter. But my password is all lower case. That was the problem.

On the browser's toggle options it only gives you a choice of letters, symbols, numbers but no case selection. It just defaults to the phone's default, I guess, and automatically capitalizes the first letter of each line.

So I just typed in a second/duplicate "first" letter to my password string (that second one naturally came out lower case) and then deleted the first capitalized one so that the password was all lower-case. Then I hit "Login."

And that worked! Don't know if you can add the words "case sensitive" at the password box or not, but that might be a good idea?

Looks pretty slick! Thanks!

Nice catch... thanks for letting us know what the problem was! ^

I have sent a support request to the WiForums team on this. Hopefully you will be able to access it soon, give it a try tomorrow afternoon and give us an update of if it is now working or not. Thanks,

It looks great. Is there a help page on the main forum for the wap site? It has several new features, which I would like to find out more about, but would rather not do it on wap because its so slow (if that's not totally contradictory ;) ).

There is not a faq yet on any of the features of FT Wireless on the regular site yet, no. That does sound a bit contradictory though, yes... ;)

When I click on "My Forums" it has only a limit number of the many forums I subscribe to. Anyone else notice this, or am I missing a solution?
