Custom servers stuck on locating server and incorrectly listed as LAN WORLDS

Custom servers stuck on "Locating Server" and incorrectly listed as LAN worlds

Environment:

- Platform: Android

- Minecraft Edition: Bedrock Edition

- Version:26.45

Issue Description:

When attempting to connect to manually added third-party servers (e.g., Jobsy SMP, BendersMC), the game gets stuck on the "Locating Server" screen.

Additionally, these custom servers are incorrectly appearing under the "LAN Worlds" section in the Friends/Worlds menu. Joining them through this tab allows connection for 1–2 minutes before the game freezes/pauses indefinitely, requiring a force quit. Official featured servers (e.g., CubeCraft, The Hive) continue to function normally.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Add a custom third-party server manually via IP and Port.

2. Attempt to join the server via the Servers tab (stuck on "Locating Server").

3. Observe the server incorrectly populating under the LAN Worlds section.

4. Join via the LAN section; the connection pauses/freezes after 1-2 minutes of gameplay.

Expected Result:

Custom third-party servers should resolve correctly under the Servers tab and not be routed or flagged as local LAN connections.
