Also checked the backend but this works too all the time (on a very stable fast server). Setting .timeout does not seem to solve the problem.

B bluedude Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Mar 4, 2011 #4 I run it on a Nexus One and I get this error a lot of times. Not sure why because I know for sure the code is correct. I'm not getting any other errors. I do something similar like Erel did in his Flickr sample (I cannot share the code). I first do a http call for some text data (using an ID for that session) and then just after that I try to get an image download. So basically these are two calls within a second, one to send data somewhere and one to get an image. Maybe calling these just after each other is a problem? Upvote 0
