"network unavailable" gmail mobile problem resolved

Problem:
Gmail mobile notifies an error: "Network unavailable" and says something like "This program requires a working data connection. Please check your signal strength" or "java.lang.RuntimeException: Unexpected server response: 403 Forbidden" or similar.

Solution (worked for me on my SonyEricsson):
Menu -> Settings -> Connectivity -> Internet profiles -> New profile -> Name: Gprs /*or something else */ , Connect using: /* Choose GPRS Data account */ -> Save
Go back to Interet settings -> Settings for Java -> Choose prevoiusly created profile, e.g. "Gprs"

If the solution doesn't work for you, don't blame me.
