My browsers (I've tried them all), crash. Didn't find anything in the forum when I searched. Seems to occur when there's more than 2 tabs open. Was happening with 3.1 as well as 3.2. Is this common? Thanks for the help.

Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Thanks, but I've already tried those browsers. All crash when there's more than 3-4 tabs open. I think I'm going to change my settings not to play flash content automatically. It would be nice if I could use my SD card as additional RAM.

Greetings All,
I have a g tablet that I have rooted, and have market and launcherpro. I have downloaded the latest flash apk as well.
I am able to see youtube videos, however, if I try to access daillymotion, I just get a blank white section, in the area where the video is supposed to play.
Anybody have the same issue ? Wierd thing is that dailymotion (direct site access, not the app) .. used to work fine earlier.
Thanks
Same here...xscope browser works

Hi,
You didn't mention which browser you're using, but there's a thread about Xscope and Flash here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=891384&page=4
A number of people, including myself, have been seeing that Xscope and Flash stopped working about a week ago. For Xscope, there seems to be a workaround, but going to fullscreen, per that thread.
I haven't had this problem with the default browser, Dolphin, or Miren... just with Xscope.
I'll try Dailymotion...
It is really puzzling.

Just tried it:

- Xscope - worked if menu/toolbar not visible

I am new to the Android community. I just purchased a G Tablet and would like to get involved in the developer community. Today is my second day of Gtab usage. I noticed that you cant scroll within a page. I looked around and some people are saying it is not a javascript problem but a css problem.
Does anyone know if there is a fix available or being worked on?
Thank you for any insight.

Thank you. It doesnt look like anyone cares to fix this at google.

Hi,
I asked about this a long time ago, so thanks for that link! I just posted on the issue there, maybe others could also..
Also, when I was emailing the Xscope developer awhile ago, I think he said that all other browsers use Webkit, except for Xscope, but I noticed that Xscope also has problems scrolling w the same pages, so maybe we can email him to see if he can fix it in Xscope at least?
Jim
Yeah i posted up earlier in that thread. I have been watching this for a while. Maybe honeycomb will address this problem. Although that won't necessarily help my original droid.
Css overflow fix!!!!
The new firefox RC browser will do overflow correctly. I just tested it on my UOP forum site. You can scroll the overflow with a single finger!!!!

Thanks for pointing that out!
Fyi, I just trled Opera Mobile 11 and it looks like that works also
Jim
Opera vs Firefox
Now I didnt play with the settings on Opera 11, but it appears the way it handles the CSS overflow is by altering the webpage to show the entire DIV. So you dont have to scroll. It can make some pages look funny.
Firefox actually lets you scroll within the DIV with a single finger.
Opera may be able to do that too, but I did not fiddle with the settings to find out.
Also Firefox does not have flash support yet. I did not check Opera 11, but I think I read that it was flash ready.
You're right about the formatting w Opera. And yes Flash is working w Opera, but not Firefox.

Hi, I have been getting this 'weird look' for the XDA-developer (dot) com homepage. I tried both (the latest stable) chrome and (latest stable) firefox. It has been like this for about a week now. All other pages (portal, forum, wiki, etc) look normal but just the homepage is seemingly broken.
The moment I signed up to answer the question, the homepage is back to normal now. It is now back to normal on firefox too.
What freakish sorcery is this? My intention with this query is more of curiosity. Why does this happen? It is also happening with the dell.com (worldwide) website. What is technically (possibly) going wrong behind the scenes here?
Thanks in advance. :good:
I have the same issue. I don't know about Firefox, but on chrome you just have to click the shield icon in the address bar and click on whatever option comes up there (I can't remember exactly what it says but it should be fairly obvious) and it should sort refresh the page in the correct layout. Annoyingly, AFAIK you're going to have to do this every time you visit the portal.
Sent from my NexusHD2 using xda app-developers app
I haven't been getting this issue, but I've seen it before.
I'm not a web developer, but maybe CSS style information not loading correctly ?
When I get this issue, refreshing the page usually works for me. I get it when our connection lags, too - and doesn't load everything (er, I think that's what's going on, anyway).
That fixed the error!

Thanks! That fixed the error. Wow! So its cause Chrome detects xda-dev homepage having 'insecure content'. I hope xda site admins do something about this soon cause its super annoying!

+1, I think it may be something to do with one of the plugins I have installed, since on another laptop on chrome there seems to be no issue.
Excellent Suggestion!

You were right. Its being caused by the 'HTTPS Everywhere' extension. When I disable, it, the page loads correctly. I had that installed on my firefox too. I hope XDA soon moves their complete website to HTTPS. The extension doesn't seem to have any settings where I can acknowledge an exception.

Of course, I have the same plugin installed I CBA to disable/uninstall it right now, but at least I know what's causing the issue.
Chrome+XDA Forum - Weird look
Since a couple of days I have the forum being displayed as following in Chrome:
In Firefox everything is as usual.
I keep having internet connection problems when using web browsers, let me be more specific:
I am running a nightly on Cyanogenmod Official Teamchopsticks 10.1. I don't think the rom really matters. When I try to browse to any page on both Google Chrome, Dolphin and Stock, I get "this webpage is not available" but only sometimes. I can't predict when or when it won't work, but it doesn't seem to work most of the time. What's really odd is internet works in all apps, and I can even search google in the browser or use Google Now, but say I try to go to http://www.google.com, nope, no connection. I have this problem on multiple Wifi Networks and on LTE.
I'm very confused on what this could be, any tips?
did u read this sticky Read This b4 posting | THE MOST Common Questions Answered HERE specifically q.24 if u tried returning to stock
did you try reflashing radio, howto is in the 1stop sticky in the radio section
would it really be the radio if the internet still works in app, just not browsers?

usually no, but if you tried restoring to stock and that didnt help its worth a shot
I'll have a look, thanks
I had a look, and it actually seems to be the XDA app. I load the XDA app and it says it can't connect, and then suddenly all other apps on the device can't get internet.

weird, is that from a backup or fresh install, I usually suggest fresh but personally use backups unless I encounter problems
I just reinstalled the app, and still had the same problem, this is really odd, I wonder how this is happening.
I don't like wasting peoples time so I have searched and I can't find a answer, basically I am using dolphin browser on my new 5 and the double tap to zoom and the pinch to zoom don't work. I have cleared the cache and reinstalled but is still the same.
Are there any other 5 users having this problem?
Thanks again.

Has Dolphin been updated for 4.4?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2516385
In that thread, a couple of people discuss Dolphin's pinch-to-zoom feature. Have you tried using Jet Pack with Dolphin? That seems to be what those users are doing.

Thanks for the jetpack recommendation

Yes, the jetpack has been updated and fixes the 4.4 issues. Dolphin has been my goto browser for at least the past year. Every time I have tried something else I always return to Dolphin.
I had the same issue, I installed their Dolphin beta (it shows up as a different app in the Play Store) ..they have it fixed.

Wow this guy knows how to search and make me feel like a right plank!
Thanks very much for time fella, I have now tryed jet pack but still no work is. I guess I will have to try and get used to crome until it gets a update.
Thanks again.
The updated KitKat 4.4 update for Boat Browser and Dolphin Browser are now working on my Nexus 5 running stock rom & kernel. Dolphin with Jetpack runs nice in full screen mode but BB will not run full screen, feedbacks sent to developer via Play Store. Chrome does run full mobile screen.
Just a quick update I uninstalled both jet pack and the normal dolphin browser and then installed jet pack first and was prompted to install the normal browser from the play store and now tap and pinch to zoom work OK!
Problem sorted thanks everyone.

I just happened to be following that thread already, that's how I knew it existed. The search function is often very unhelpful on XDA. I have better luck using Google search and looking at results from XDA pages that way.
Thanks again for the help man!
