From your last thread, it sounds like it is your new Android phone that you got a few days ago that is the problem.
Did you try the connection settings options? Did you try reporting a problem using the "Report Problem" link in the Android settings?
Posting a thread here won't do anything. It is answered by other users, not chess.com staff.
Chess.com is working fine here in Oregon. Your mistake is trying to play chess on a phone. You wouldn't try to make phone calls with a chess set now, would you?

There is another point and that is correspondence chess. It's nice to have the ability to play with a phone while away from a PC. The fact of the matter is the Android App, sucks BIG TIME and has ever since v3. came out. Games won't load, crashes, insane lag waiting for stuff to load, you name it Android has it. An upgrade has been promised for some time, but possibly it is beyond being compatible in v3. v2 worked just fine !

There is a discussion group about somewhere for Android. Always hear "What version, what phone, try this, do that, write a bug ticket, take a screen shot etc etc." Write a ticket and staff that responds usually hasn't a clue as they have never used Android. Programmers never got it right and there's just too much to fix. Staff is always asking for our help to "fix" their problems. Seems a bit Backwards.

Kannada? So that's what they call the language in the country north of me. I can understand 90% of it.
Try a English Dictionary Of Pxford. They won't approach you if they see proper English.
