The predefined online height correction service does not work. It is only a sample or guide of what you should do. You must open a free account on MapQuest, get an ApiKey and replace the predefined OruxMaps. You just need to change the ApiKey.
You can also use the BingMaps service. The 2 differ a bit:
MapQuest: GPX correction and up to 5 Waypoints.
BingMaps: Correction of up to 1024 Waypoints and some GPX files.

I use local correct service not MapQuest or others and that is work proper before, this error happened recently, I am sure that correct service and ApiKey is OK due to my friend is working and re-request ApiKey is same.

I use the online height correction services to obtain information beyond the coverage of my DEMs.
