J2ME, Nokia, HttpConnection - java-me

Question

This code works fine on SonyEricsson and Motorola cellphones, but on Nokia it either fails at the beginnig not making any request at all or returns empty response, depending on model.
HttpConnection hc = null;
InputStream is = null;
InputStreamReader isr = null;
String result = "";
try
{
hc = (HttpConnection) Connector.open(url);
int rc = hc.getResponseCode();
if (rc != HttpConnection.HTTP_OK)
{
throw new IOException(hc.getResponseMessage());
}
is = hc.openInputStream();
isr = new InputStreamReader(is, "utf-8");
int ch;
while ((ch = is.read()) != -1)
{
result += (char) ch;
}
}
finally
{
if (is != null)
{
is.close();
}
if (hc != null)
{
hc.close();
}
}
return result;
Tried different codes with byte buffers, streams, etc, result is always the same. What's the problem?

I am not sure if this will work for you but I had a similar problem and found that specifying a port number made it work (on some older Nokia models). i.e convert:
