Mobile BitTorrent app not connecting to tracker? (Android)

Post by Duskv20 »

Hi everyone! So I'm without internet connection at the moment. I've been using the mobile BitTorrent app from the Google Play store on my Android, and everything has been working fine so far. However, I found out today that for some reason, I can't get torrents off the TV-Nihon tracker! I get an error message.

Anyone have any ideas on how to fix it? (I've been torrenting on mobile from sites like The Pirate Bay, Torrentz, etc with no issues)

What's the error message? I'm not familiar with mobile apps, so I have no idea why it wouldn't work.

It just says "Failed to add torrent" and then lists the Web Address. TV Nihon's tracker is so far the only one I've come across that gives me this message. :/

What torrent have you try to use with this app? Please be specific about it.

There is a possibility that can happen on any type of client. You may have a mobile app that does not recognize the software that created the .torrent file. In that case, see if other bittorrent software is available for your device.

Flud works great on my Android (sorry I didn't offer that before: I never heard of the problem mentioned and thought it was something else.)
