Hello!

I have a problem with my mobile internet. When I'm browsing (built in browser, Opera, Firefox, Doplphin) with mobile internet, there is no connection. When I'm on wifi, everything works fine. Other pass liek facebook or anything that needs data transfer is working like a charm.

Any suggestions?
 
Sounds like a DNS problem. IWO, website names are not being successfully translated into IP addresses. Contact your provider and see if they can help.
 
Your data might not be set up correctly. First check that data is on. From any home screen Hit Menu >> Wireless & Networks >> Mobile Networks. Make sure "Data Enabled" (or similar preference item) is checked on.
 
Data must already be on or Facebook, etc would not be working, but they do. He has a browsing problem, usually due to issues with DNS name resolution.

To the OP: To determine if DNS issues are the problem, try entering a known IP address into the address bar instead of a name, for example:

http://74.125.224.72

That should open a Google site. If it does DNS is likely your problem. If not something else is wrong.
