Stock web browser glitches

Is it just me or do guys notice a pretty bad glitch when scrolling down web pages on the default browser? Just wondering if their is a way to fix that problem other then to use another browser like opera. Reason I ask is because I only use the default browser to pay online bills and that glitch while scrolling it's really annoying. Don't think it'll make a difference but I'm using infused 1.5.3
thanks.

IV had a few loading issues glitchy/laggy. But It may of been a network issue while loading. I use dolphin browser HD now seen less issues using it.

With the dolphin web browser can it give you the option to respond to web forums that aren't compatible with tapatalk I noticed opera mobile or mini can't do that.

Testing from dolphin browser oh I guess it works nice guess this will be my default browser d from now on

If its the "checkering" you are talking about... All you have to do is let the page load all the way. This issue has been discussed already. The other browsers might do it less, but I like the stock one better.

There is a modified stock browser that you can use. And see if it fixes ur problem.

Here you go. It's slappyjoker's post. Download it, backup the original (I just rename it to Browser.apk.stock) and drop in the modified browser and you're set. Use root explorer to do all of these steps of course.

I personally don't use it much because I have opera as my default for its other capabilities. But there is quite a difference in the modified browser. Feel free to test it out, you can always revert back to stock.

Holy **** that hacked browser made a huge difference in performance. It didn't fix the checker problem but the performance pretty much trumps that issue for me.
Thanks a bunch for the heads up on that browser.

Yeah no problem. A lot better than stock. I'm glad I could help out

Browser lag ever fixed?

Hey guys I'm just wondering if Samsung ever released a fix for the stock browser lag.
I was thinking about getting the phone but this is holding me back.
Sent from my ADR6350 using XDA App

Given that you seem to have an issue with any Samsung phone you have, regardless of how big or small the problem is, you're probably better off just not getting it, because even if the "browser lag" is fixed, you'll just find another thing to complain about.

Next he will be complaining about the lack of an LED and saying BLN is not a valid replacement.

You should try the iphone. I hear the pinch to zoom works flawlessly on it.

No its not the phone. I had it before and returned it for same reason. But after hearing about update i wanted to try it again. If i use the opera mobile browser its perfect with no checkerboard and touch is very responsive. On the stock browser if i scroll it'll respond 2 sec after

No offense, but that is pretty sad if that is the "only" thing causing you to pack up the Charge. What do you like about the stock browser so much that you don't use an alternative anyway? If the problem doesn't exist for the other browsers, why not just use one of them? I can think of a handful of others that are much better than the stock browser anyway.
Seems like you are just trying to bash Samsung for no particular reason.

No im not bashing. I had it once before. And got rid of it for that reason. But i heard the lag was fixed. That why I ASKED IN THIS POST ..... The reason i like the stock browser is it handles alot of webpages better.... Format wise. Its just a taste. Trust i would rather be on a 4g phone.... The thunderbolt was just to big and heavy for me. So i went with the charge. Not bashing... Not meant that way.

Stock browser consumes extreme amounts of CPU.
Do not use

Not gonna bother reading the thread still gonna chime in through, the stock browser sucks but if you're asking about the glitch that was in all the DC reviews where flash froze the browser, then that has been fixed a long time ago.
Also, for browsers I'd suggest replacing stock with Dolphin HD(or Mini, uses less resources) or Opera.

Where is it?
Edit: Oops, nvm found it.

its crazy fast and everything seems to be working.

Tried it briefly. Butter smooth.
Wifi calling didn't work. I depend on it now with the crappy dead zone I am in now.
Also miui. I didn't give it a fair chance never tried miui before. I hope it gets ported beyond miui.
Can't wait for it that's for sure

Wait, is this ICS? lol?

Working terrific so far. Looks absolutely identical to regular miui. Except keyboard which is a tiny bit smaller I believe. Also noticibly faster in general. I do recommend it from my experience so far.

been running ICS build since it's availability and everything has been smooth and stable. it "feels" faster than any other MIUI build i've used, but could just be placebo effect unless ICS' hardware acceleration is really working.
i even had wifi calling working a couple times, but this has not been consistent. sometimes it worked and other times i had the "invalid sim" error.
can't really comment on battery life as i'm still re-calibrating.
the only issue i've run into is a Market FC only when i try to swipe through the screenshots for apps...weird.
other than the issue listed above, this rom has been great and error free for me.

tried it out.... hated the Ui would much prefer weapon x ui with ics improvements and toggles going back to weaponx 2.8.

Been using the ICS build. No crazy real world speeds were felt by me. Only going to keep running this build if the battery life is better than the regular one.
Missing extended power menu. Might be missing gps.config fix & APN fix files in this ICS build.
Looks & feels the same as any other MIUI Whitehawkx has ported over.

Installed just now...works great and benchmarks return 2700+. Also, I was having terrible problems with Youtube before with any other MIUI version (very, very, very, verrrrrry slow loading). Now Youtube is faster to load than when it was with Gingerbread.
THANK YOU Whitehawkx!

I've been having problem with galnet video app. It sends me to the market to download an app. When I tried to install the app it gives me an error. Anyone else has the same problem?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App

I had that happen but only because miui considered it a favorite app and wanted you to submit a rating.
That's the only thing I found impressive was the media player, galnet player. I'd love to see it in cm7 or in a market.
Playing with miui on my G2 just to get a feel for it. Would have moved it to g2x but I need T-Mobile wifi to work

@miuiandroid MIUI Android
These ICS framework MIUI ROMs are a disgrace to the name of MIUI, its not official MIUI ICS so really, why bother making such crap kangs?

Photo Editor

Hi guys
Just took from SGS II ICS ROM its photo editor (photo retouching).
It is really cool and besides special effects you can actually choose an area and apply all effects or even make stain disappear (fill hole).
It works absolutely flawlessly on our device.

I've tried a few photo editing apps since I started using Instagram. So far, I like Picsay Pro and Camera Zoom. Picsay makes it easier to add text though. I don't think Zoom has the same functionality though.

I liked camera zoom for a while, but moved to Quick Snap (with infinite focus) as my fastest camera (for running kids) and this thread photo editor for the small finishes. For videos editing I use AndroVid btw.

Hi itzik2sh...I just found it FC every time I try to load picture (was on your Hebrew Vahalla), I did Gremlin removed and flashed your rom several time but still FC :s...(sr but since 'm into worst week of the school year - exam week lol - so I can't have phone and PC at once to upload some pics for you - as my mom not allows lol)

I don't want to be off topic, but :
1. Does it happen on this app only?
2. Is gallery working good otherwise?
3. What launcher are you using?
Go launcher is smoother and more stable comparing to touchwiz.
4. Try deleting your pics and vids, maybe one of them is corrupted..

1. Yes, just this app.
2. My galary was fine.
3. I have always been on Go launcher (even on MiUI rom lol )
4. I'm sure all my media files are not corrupt ...
Anyway, I tried it on other roms and it was fine so never mind, once I get on Hebrew Vahalla again, I will sure to follow your op tightly and will report to you later since I remember that I didn't ummu and just only factory reset one time :s...my bad so I can say now, the app is fine ...btw, all best wishes to you

Jerky Slow Scrolling Stock Browser

Hopefully someone can help. MY phone is driving me nuts.
I think I am currently using ROM Cwm-GB-2.3.6-Octane-V3.0 XPLOD NO CIQ (phone shows GINGERBREAD.VUVKJ6). If those are different then my ROMs are not flashing.
About 6 weeks ago (running Octane 2.3.6) everything was running just fine then I flashed the power menu and my stock browser became jerky/laggy/jumpy. I have tried loading ROM after ROM but I am getting nowhere whatsoever. I tried flashing some Kernels but the same result every time is the jumpy browser.
I think I have applied the power menu fix but I still have the same problem.
Current Kernel is 2.6.35.7-T959VUKJ6-CL694130
I really only use about 2-3 website and had got used to the browser so using a 3rd party browser is not what I want. Besides I’d like to get this fixed and hopefully understand a bit more of what’s going on.
Thanks

I would try using the scrolling tweak by dsexton.

Thanks for the suggestions. The scroll tweak may come in handy later. I did however get it fixed by downloading T959VUVKJ6-REV00-home-low-CL694130.tar
and then following the NOOB guide for ODIN here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1001759
I'm happy just to be back to stock and start over.
Thanks again

The scroll tweak will make scrolling in everything else really smooth as well.

I have this same problem on Anton's BAREBONES rom. It's frustrating because I love everything else works fine with the rom. The scroll tweak didn't fix the issue it's probably something else. I didn't have this problem with the stock rom.

I'll look later today. Seems like common solution for jerky scrolling it to patch framework.res and disable scrolling cache, which is overloading garbage collection.
Edit: Looked at it, unfortunately it's may improve only scrolling in lists (it patches AbsListView.) The browser scrolling cannot be improved this way.
Edit2: Fixed in Barebone 1.0.8

I installed the same rom, and I to have a jerky stock web browser, but what's more wired to me is that my phone looks stock Samsung and almost nothing has changed ! Is that how it is for you?
What new rom do you guys suggest?

"This ROM is very stock-like" taken directly from the op of that ROM.
So, yes, its like that for everyone that flashes. Do everyone a favor and read at least the complete op of anything your going to flash.
As for recommendations, its all about personal taste. My personal favorite to date is unnamed, but I'm currently on vb because I wanted a change and never gave vb an extended run.
