Hi, if anyone has any ideas

I'm making a http request to a web service, this works fine on the simulator and fine when run on the handheld as a UI Application. BUT when I run it as a background thread on startup the handheld 7230 freezes. I have found clues that its because i'm trying to connect from the main thread and the connection message can't show, but I've tried various ways of coding this and it still freezes on this line s = (StreamConnection)Connector.open(url);

I've searched the forum and can't really find any specific answers or code examples. The error I get is no sig from 0x33. My code is signed and i've set theApp.setAcceptEvents(false); I'll post my code below, if anyone could take a quick look. I can't really find any examples anywhere to take a look at!!! Thanks Zoe

public static void main(String[] args){

TimeSynchro theApp = new TimeSynchro();
theApp.enterEventDispatcher();
theApp.setAcceptEvents(false);
boolean event = theApp.isEventThread();
}

public TimeSynchro()
{
TimeSynchroThread updateTime = new TimeSynchroThread();
Thread syncTime = new Thread(updateTime);
syncTime.start();
}


public static class TimeSynchroThread implements Runnable
{
private HttpConnection conn;
private StreamConnection s;
private DataInputStream is;
private DataOutputStream out;
private String url = "http://*.*.*.*.*/FirstService/FirstService.asmx";

public void run(){

while(true){

try{

synchronized(this){

// Only Request if radio state and signal ok
int state = RadioInfo.getState();
int level = RadioInfo.getSignalLevel();

if((state == 1) && (level > -121 ) && (level < -51)){

String soapRequest = buildXML();

s = (StreamConnection)Connector.open(url);
conn = (HttpConnection)s;

byte[] requestXML = soapRequest.getBytes();

// Set the appropriate HTTP parameters.
conn.setRequestMethod(HttpConnection.POST);
conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Length", String.valueOf(requestXML.length));
conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type","text/xml; charset=utf-8");
conn.setRequestProperty("SOAPAction","http://tempuri.org/TimeSynchro");
