[Q] Flash = crash - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone else having the odd crash out of the browser (Also tried Dolphin Pad beta with similar results) or even the odd reboot when trying to run a Flash webpage? I rarely get a forced close just a straight crash out of the browser to the desktop or worse, a reboot. I had this with Prime but am also getting it with the new Revolver ROM. I am beginning to suspect it's endemic to Android or the TF (Or both).
Noticed it most when trying to use Flickr in Lightbox mode (User Agent set to Tablet/Android).

Nobody? I just want to know if it's just me or not.

I think there must be some deep lying cause for the browser crash other than Flash. people have complained of crashing in the browser a lot. It's weird how it does it sometimes in the new Dolphin Tab beta browser too. What's interesting is that in Opera if you enable Flash and use Flickr Lightbox you just get a black background and no photos will display. In the stock browser and Dolphin Tab it works but causes crashes. Scratching my head over this one. I cannot believe how bugged browsing is in Android. I feel like we are beta testing every release. ICS has a lot to live up to if we ever get it on the TF.

[Q] Transformer browsers force closing

I keep having my browsers stop, they wont finish loading and then when I touch on the address search bar or refresh button on the screen I get the force close message. I'm having problems with the stock browser and also the dolphin hd browser too. It happens after about 10 minutes and I can't find any correlation with certain sites, it's just after a little time no matter what I'm looking at. I did a search and only came across someone saying they were having a problem but it was a xoom and they were also rooted. My transformer is all stock and only about a week old. Does anyone have any suggestions or anything? Besides that I love this thing. Thanks for the help.
some sites are inaccessible without crashing to the desktop. Web browsing is one of the major use cases for the transformer. It will be nice if this geta fixed.
Are you serious? I researched tide tablet for weeks before i decided on it. I knew about the cameras and taking videos not being good, I knee there was a chance for light bleed, and also that there were some problems with hd video playback sometimes. I hadn't read anything however on browsing problems. I tried Firefox and opera along with dolphin and they all stop and crash. I don't understand why someone didn't mention this in their reviews with it being a problem. I've had no problems with light bleed, video playback and the camera is fine for me, but the browsing problem would have dissuaded me from purchasing if I would have known. Is there no fixes at all?
The problem is java script, try to disable java

On Monday I'll have my Transformer for 2 weeks. I just started having browser crashes yesterday only after a couple of minutes of browsing. This has happened on yahoo & xda. At the time I was trying to copy & paste. What I don't understand is I wasn't having problems before.
Also, I am unable to do a search on XDA. The search & keyboard come up monetarily then close.

Yes, stock & not rooted
I never get force closing pop ups but everynow and then the browser just closes... but then it depends on the website
I;m running overclocked prime
Mine is just stock, I haven't rooted mine either. I can usually browse for 10 minutes or so before mine stops then force closes. It seems strange that it just started after 2 weeks for the one person. If the problem is Java and I turn it off won't that limit some of the sites? I hate to be limited on browsing, otherwise you might as well get a dang ipad. I hope we find a fix for this it's driving me crazy.
Stock, 3.1 not rooted. The crashing is site specific. It happens with Dolphin as well. Xscope will handle the site, but it has other usability issues (like no zoom) . Do other tablets (zoom,tab 10.1,etc) have these issues? I love paying to be a beta tester.
Same problem here, browser crashes on certain webpages without a warning, switching java off solves the problem but this shouldn't be a solution
Turning off Java Script does indeed help a lot it seems - faster loading and far less crashes. As a web technology noob what do I lose w/o Java script? I browse mostly news/science/tech blogs and forums. Not to many interactive (save Facebook of course).
Any good tips on what losing JV scrips limits?
Thanks!
This has been discussed before Its a known issues (at least to us that have them) and its pretty annoying to say the least. Turning off javascript helps in two different ways (stops crashes and speeds up browsing), but some pages wont display correctly without it.
i resolved crashes with "adfree"
I've never seen my browser as prone to crash or sluggish on the transformer. The only thing I configured is to start plugins on click only (like poor man flashblock - but I prefer it this way on my desktop Chrome too). Running stock 3.1.
i wwill try the adfree and I will post my results.
I've had my Transformer for about three weeks and besides slowing down quite a bit the stock browser and Dolphin have been crashing regularly as of last week. I'm running stock 3.1 - not rooted or anything. It's gotten bad enough that I've basically stopped using it and am using my Acer W500 and iPad. I can put up with some problems in a new unit but if I had known that Honeycomb was as buggy as it seems to be so far I probably would not have purchased this.
i got mine last week, the default browser performance is unacceptable. It just crashes without any warning. Clicking comboboxes , checkboxes and even links in some cases is far too difficult to get right with one go, there are instances where you simply cant do it at all , even after zooming all the way in. Turning off JavaScript is not an option for me, there are simply too many sites using JavaScript for their manus n stuff. Now using dolphin browser, seemsmuch better, but still unreble.I am a huge android supporter, i have a galaxy s and i love it. But recently i compared this against an ipad 2, i hate to say this but with current firmware (3.1 stock, not rooted) this tablet is far inferior to the ipad when it comes to web browsing. I hate apple products,but at this point id rather have an ipad, over this

Browser Cache
I cleared my browser cache and this seemed to fix it. can someone test and post results?

Yet another browser issue

Am i the only one here suffer from checker box browsing issue? For those who don't know what it is. Is when you load a webpage they load box by box as you scroll down. Was there some setting i miss? I tried factory reset and it still doesn't solve anything. This really bug me because knowing that the TF is quite powerful in it's own way. But when using the stock browser it made it feel really cheap. Opera mobile on the other hand is way faster when rendering webpage. But since i have all my bookmark synced in the stock browser that made it my preferred browser. Just wondering if anyone else have this issue as well.
I have the same issue. I turned off opengl rendering and it fixed it, but scrolling is much less smooth.
I have the same issue, after receiving the Android 3.2 update. 3.1 was better for me. It has stated that 3.2 was suppose to fix this white box loading problem, but it caused me the problem instead. So I'm hoping the next update will fix it soon in the coming days for the U.S. on 8/23/11. 3.2 is such a buggy release.
As for how to disable OpenGL rendering? I don't think there is such option under any factory setting? Are you rooted legoman666?
to disable opengl you have to type about:config in the browser URL. Nothing will show up on the webpage. But just go back to your browser setting and the debug option is listed there. Yeah i really hope they fix this issue soon. I don't even feel like using the TF anymore because of this.

I believe I followed the instructions correctly. But I do not see the OpenGL option listed, nor a debug option within Settings on the stock browser.
lol my bad i mean type about:debug then go to setting. You should see the debug option. Sorry been using a couples other browser and got the command mixed up. Disabling openGL will cause some issue when loading webpage with flash.
this is such a huge annoyance I wonder why you don't see more complaints? Its buggingthe hell out of me!
I use Opera Browser and get nearly zero blockiness, however it is about time Asus got off their ass and fixed this issue once and for all!
Does opera work with flash?
And yes Asus needs to address this issue big time since most users are on the web 90% of the time!

Yes flash works fine on Opera.
yeah i'm no longer using the stock browser. Switched to opera and so much faster. Just wish mouse scrolling work with it hehe. I can't believe we need to rely on third party software to enjoy web surfing. I thought tablet are meant for web surfing. Surely this is not the case with the TF stock browser.
Lets just admit the TF is a pretty good device. Except for the stock browser. The longer I use it the more I hate it. I honestly don't know why I keep using it other than it's familiar. Maybe if someone just removed it from the rom I would be forced to use something else
I agree. The device itself is awsome. I love playing old school emulator games using my ps3 controller. But when i want to surf the web. I tend to move to my desktop for that job. Hell even my samsung galaxy s does a better job. That's how much the stock browser had turned me off and not to mention when i want to post here. The keyboard lag is ridiculous. Can't surf and can't type. Definitely a pretty damn let down for a dual core device.
i sent a complaint to Asus. Lets see if we get a responce!

Choppy browser
Ok so from what I read the checker box browsing, slow keyboard typing and all are not exclusive to my device. I got my TF a week back and I tried different browsers (Stock, Dolphin, Opera) and on different roms (Prime and Revolver) and all were choppy like hell.
it was worst in case of facebook and endgadget pages which are quite long pages and what I saw was plain dissapointing, slow, checker boxes and the fact that it keep loading the whole page if I scroll up and down or zoom in and out!
Edit: ok so idid the "open gl rendering" uncheck and now the stock browser doesnt do checker box and its quite ok,could be smoother but its wayyyy better than before!

Anyone else really starting to hate their tf?

Am I the only one starting to hate their tf? I am finding mine more and more useless for web browsing each day. I figure web browsing would be the one aspect they perfect if none else! Examples from tonight.
I try to send a friend a message on facebook.com and when I finally get the slow tf to the new message screen, I click paste and the browser crashes!
In gmail.com I was trying to setup mail forwarding and the keyboard refused to appear on the screen even though my text box was open with a blinking cursor!
Trying to click on various links on web sites it often hits the wrong link.
Trying to watch any videos or flash in the browser is usually uselessly slow.
Overall loading and rendering of pages takes a very long time, especially when compared to a normal computer... shoot, my htc evo loads pages faster!
Using forums utterly sucks, typing is really delayed and scrolling around the page is painfully slow as I have to watch square after square render
Half the time when typing it misses a key then the backspace refuses to work!
Ahhhh... come on Google! Wtf! As much as I hate to say it, I am starting to see why ppl pay more for the ipad2, it usually just works smooth and quick!
I gotta ask what rom your running. I have some glitches now and again but overall mine is snappy. MAybe its time for a cache clearing?
A few of the problems you mention can be solved by using apps instead of going through the browser every time. It's not always the fault of Google that web pages run slow; web developers are notoriously lazy when it comes to optimization for mobile devices like phones and tablets. They're not desktop or laptop replacements, therefore you can't expect the same performance.
The best thing you can do for speed and stability is to use apps more often than the browser. For instance, use the Facebook Messenger app for sending Facebook messages, and FriendMe for all other Facebook tasks. For forum browsing, try using Tapatalk. Other than that, always make sure you are running the most current firmware and plugins.
Like just now, I tried to reply to this thread and nothing would type in the box, just a blinky cursor, I wait a few seconds and still nothing then I type a bunch of garbage and it all shows up! But of course then backspace wouldn't work.. its like hard work just to reply to this thread.
I am using the latest prime rom. I've used nothing but prime mostly and I usually wipe everything and the caches for each new release just to be safe... and I can understand about using different apps but I shouldn't need a separate app for everything, I mean my android phone plays flash videos smoother.. and the facebook apps! Suck for the most part when compared to the site (I know that sentence was messed up but again, backspace wouldn't work for me to fix it!)
Very disappointed.. I love my android evo and have always backed android but this really stinks... I bought the tablet to relax and browse the net, it seems to just have made more work and aggrovation for me..
Have you tried different browser? I use Opera browser and it works pretty good. dolphin HD works pretty well too. Dice Player and/or MX video players? lastest flash version perhaps? I am using Prime 1.8.4, no complain here as far as software go.
i've always used tapatalk to post in this forum, so i never actually tried to use the website to do so.
so i decided to do this via stock browser. my review: it's not perfect, there's a half-second delay to get it going, but for the most part, it's perfectly useable.
i even realized i wasn't even doing the about:debug trick. once i did it improved mildly. i do have flash enabled 100%, and i'm currently staring at a bestbuy flash ad.
overall though, it'd say it's quite useable, not perfect, but not as bad as the OP's case. backspace work fine.

A few people have had problems with the latest prime rom such as slow wifi and browser problems. But like others said, use a different browser such as opera mini.
My suggestion would be to try the revolver rom.
+1 for Opera Browser. I am running Revolver rom and using Opera and it is fast as f%$k with the blockiness 99% gone. Don't know if it is the rom, which I think is faster than prime, or Opera but I am loving my tf more every day.

The only Opera I have used is the mobile tablet one. I may have several tabs open at the same time..I hate having to click on the way you display all the tabs (thumbnails) select a tab...takes a double click or hard to close one. I haven't checked for blockiness being gone since the last update. I thought it was gone in Dolphin HD at first...today it seems back. i hate that about my wifes ipad...not being able to draw or refresh the entire web page at once ..so I can scroll down it properly....
I mostly use Dolphin HD. It doesn't force close or crash any more than Opera does for me.
Yes web browsing does leave something to be desired on the TF. Strangely enough using the same browser on my phone I don't discover the same problems. My conclusion? HC leaves something to be desired... hopefully with ICS things will get better.
Has any of you tried Dolphin Pad? It's a beta version of Dolphin optimized for tablets and works quite better than Dolphin HD.
Oh wait, don't let me post a link because of my post count, ****. Just search for it in the market. It's called "Dolphin for Pad V1.0 Beta"
I have no problems with browsing using dolphin pad or opera. Fast as hell on the revolver ROM. tf was a great investment.

I use the stock browser and I don't have any problems at all with it. When I first got my tf I was able to sync my bookmarks so that every machine I use has the same set - this would be worth a lot of inconvenience as I have a lot of work material in my bookmarks. The tf is not as fast as my desktop but then it wouldn't be would it? It's slower than my netbook's browser but then the touchscreen is easier to use than the trackpad. I don't recognise any of the OP's problems and I've never used any other browser.
I do feel for you, I have had some isues as well. But once i rooted, flashed and yes oc'd I have had alot less issues. I still get some wierd lag and force close apps about once a day but its nothing hat i cant live with, well excpet for the gun bro's lag. Its become unplayable.
I would try the suggestions to use apps and manage your programs a bit better. Clear the cache, check your perms see how it runs then
I love my TF more and more every day, its just getting better and faster with every update from Asus.
I use the stock browser still as well. I have tried various others on the TF and use Dolphin HD on my HTC Desire, but on the TF the stock browser seems the best still, I haven't had any issues with it other than it being a bit slow on forums.
I'm on 100% stock, using stock browser, and on Newgrounds.com right now. Flash is running smooth. Yes, when scrolling down the page I see the empty boxes but they render quickly. TF smokes the ipad2.
I use the official rom and it works GREAT, watch flash videos without a problem. Really if you have those kinds of problems you should hate your rom ( unless you are using the official one, in that case i would factory reset ) not the tf...
I'm using stock browser also. The keyboard delay is annoying I have to say.
For the rest it works OK. Sync my bookmarks with Google which I find very handy.
I'm running Revolver OC and ADW EX.
This is very fast and fluid. I'm very pleased with the way it works right now.
Most of the OP issues sound like browser issues, I can't access gmail settings without any browser crashing too, but no biggy
Forums are known to be slow for typing into, I think we need a browser that supports 2D Hardware acceleration like FF does on the PC etc
I'm running the latest prime rom also and I'm OC'd to 1.5 GHz along with ADW EX and i couldn't be happier with my tf. I also use Dolphin HD and have no problems with it. As someone else said use apps specialized for specific tasks rather than websites.

Transformer browser restarting

I am finally using the Transformer on vacation and the browser is erroring with a "force restart" message. Can be using 2-4hrs and message pops up. Not very nice.
On the latest build. What gives..Is this to be expected on Ver3.2?
Now i will say this...My wife's iPad has never done this..would hate to buy Apple but you cannot fault a Apple not working 99.9%..100% if flash gets loaded and with Steve Jobs gone this will happen.
use dolphin hd tablet.
Use opera browser, I think it's the best browser for the TF ATM, dolphin HD is good also but it's slower and laggier then opera for me...

Ok and installed. Let's see how this behaves.
Some quick comments:

2. Flash is work fine
3. Pages are scrolling smoother then stock browser
More to come...
To the OP, android did not just come out yesterday. If you really hate android stock browser before trying out other alternatives, you should get yourself an ipad.
I've actually seen people complain about the black area around the screen on the iconia and transformer. I told those people to get an ipad because [sarcasm] the ipad has no black area around its screen at all[/sarcasm].
I have the same problems with the latest version

I stated that the stock browser after 2-5hrs of use gives a "force restart" pop-up message. I am using a "stock" unit with the lastest firmware. I am trying another browser to see if it works without crashing. Again, since I do have a iPad 1 I can compare on the user experience. Android has some work to do on there platform...FACT
OP:
1. Flash is not 100% working on FP sites...this is noted from OP whitepaper
2. Using 3hrs and no crash message at this time..I use around 8 tabs in the browser.
3. Screen sizing is not as good as stock browser....OP resizing back and forth.
4. There is a lag from the keybard when typing..OS issue as this happens in any app.
Trying flash on both browsers. Flash does not work well on 360 views. It tries but then page displays "stop" symbol then site tab removes itself. Nice..
Site is landrover.com

Everything needs work. Thats why we have alternatives like firefox or opera. If you want everything to work exactly perfectly on stock you should stick with the ipad.
1, 3, and 4 are not true. Opera and firefox do not lag at all. This is not an os issue. Its software compatibility with the website issue.
Again, thats why we have free alternatives.

Flash is spotty on sites..as GM, Shopnbc.tv just to name a few. Basically the tablet is just not as good as a Laptop..The tablet is not 100% ready for Primetime...Apple still has the support of the business and OS..while no tablet at this time can replace a Laptop..I still will support my TF...BUT that's why use a Alienware M11x...light and ultra fast and works 100%..
I just uninstall OP.....going to test Dolphin Browser HD
Just one more note on OP:
When streaming video, the video remains playing as in Standard Browser or Dolphin this pauses the stream when switching to other tabs. This is very nice as with me having 8 or 9 tabs going at a time I can have streaming music in the background.
Now..Dolphin was able to work a little better for flash at landrover.com, Shopnbctv worked 100%. This app has a lot of setup options....
Since last firmware upgrade I noticed frequent browser crashes to the homescreen.
Suddenly the browser window disppears, and I am back at the homescreen, without the browser window I was watching being saved - when I restart the browser I am back at my starting page.
Did not find any solution!

My browser under 3.2 rebooted spontaneously one time. Other than that, I love it. Flash works smoothly, pages render fast enough, and the menu list when you touch the extreme right edge is fabulous.
I'm playing around too. When I first got 3.2 I though the browser was better. Now it seems to crash all the time. I've been using OP and it works pretty well. The sizing issues are annoying, but it works.
Hopefully, Google will get this fixed. The browser on my Vibrant (Froyo) is rock solid.
I'll give Dolphin its shot too. I would be ok with a little slower if it was stable.
Glad to see I'm not the only one with this issue. I've had it happen multiple times right now - really pronounced on Amazon's site when browsing through items.
Also noticed that my "go back" button (the arrow, not the browser's actual back button) no longer functions as expected. I used to be able to hit that to go back to the previous page - now it takes several tries or me going to the top of the page and using the actual back button to go back. Anyone know of a fix? It's been a problem since the last OTA.

Dolphin closes out of nowhere does this happen to anyone else?

It usually happens while I'm typing, dolphin just closes without any force closing notice or anything like that and then when I open the browser again it starts over instead of opening the pages I was on before it closed. It is getting annoying cuz it is my default browser and I've never had any problems with it on my phone so I started wondering if it acts funky on tablets or maybe some apps I'm using on the tablet interferes with it like maybe go launcher which seems a little bit buggy but never have any problems with the 2 apps on my phone...
So I'm just wondering if anyone else had experienced this with dolphin on their tablet? I have a feeling not all apps that have been made for phones are going to go perfect with bigger screened tablets? The tablet is rooted but I'm using the stock ROM.

Please make short sentences
Use ponctuation.
I've that problem too. Dolphin quit on specific Web page (forum) and I discovered that the default android browser has the same problem
It's specific to gtab 7+ and maybe his honeycomb version.
Using an other Brower (Opera Mobile) is a solution.

I've experienced similar issues with dolphin as well as other browsers. I generally get random closes if I have too many tabs open or load up a thread with too many full sized images. But then I have also experienced random closes when doing light browsing as well, but that occurs much less frequently.

Dolphin does it very often so did d stock honeycomb browser. After updating to ICS, stock browser has not closed unexpectedly even once after 2days of usage I guess honeycomb was loaded with bugs.. glad its solved though.

ditto, I have had better luck with Firefox beta. Looking foward to the ICS update, wondering if i should just wait or go downloadI? would like to find a better tap/keyboard. I love my tab 7.0 plus. But typing on my Asus transformer is much easier.
I have stopped using dolphin actually.. apart from the random closing i have also found that it (or one of the modules that come bundled with it) uses battery a lot in the background and tend to open network connection and transfer data ever when the phone is supposed to be in sleep..
and the random network usage stopped after i uninstalled dolphin..
I haven't had this problem at all. I use dolphin all the time. Also used Floating Browser, Overskreen, Firefox and Chrome. Have not experienced FCs.
In case you decide to stop using Dolphin, have a look at UC browser.
It has nice gesture support and has received a lot of positive reviews recently.
