Quick question, my stock browser keeps cutting out. Dolphin works fine. Any ideas why?

lol, ok I'm a little slow today. The thing is it just started doing this a couple days ago and I've had the phone for 2months. Other than being pron to doing this, would a factory reset do any good or am I wasting my time.
What do you mean by cutting out? Is it just refreshing the screen when you come back to it? I think that is something browsers dependant.

No it is actually shutting off and going back to my home screen. It mostly does it when I'm trying to tap on a link and it just shuts off like I hit the home button.

That's odd. Stock browser never did that to me.

Ok, I have had 3 HTC smart phones and never had this happen to me either until a few days ago. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated. I'm looking for something other than stock browsers are "pron" to this or "That's odd. Stock browser never did that to me" The 2 previous phones I rooted, ran different roms, flashed radios and kernels' so give me a break and give me something useful. This one is not rooted 2.2 version and un-rootable at this point. The only reason I'm hesitant at a factory reset is having to set everything and re download all the apps I have. Sure wish this was rooted, I would have Titanium Back Up and not have to worry about re downloading all these darn apps.
Didn't mean for my comment to sound sarcastic. I was trying to experess that I didn't know the solution to your problem.
Try going to menu then settings then privacy and security and clear your cache and history. It could be a corrupted file in your cache.

Thank you I did that. Gonna play a little and will let you know if it works.
It cleared up the links problem but, when I try watching a video (yes, I have Adobe Flash Player. thank you XDA ) it starts loading and then just goes back to my HTC home screen.

Similar Issue
I'm having a similar problem and really hope someone can help out. About a week ago my stock browser and ICS Browser + both started force closing on me at an alarming rate. I tried replicating the issue and found out that's its tied to javascript. The webpages that give me issue load just fine if I disable javascript but I don't see why I should have to when I've never had to before. In fact the sites that are causing crashes used to work fine until very recently. I'm on CleanRom V, but I've verified the issue with CleanRom 4.5 Final and AOKP Jellybean build 1.4. I've been using Dolphin Browser to get around the issue but I don't want to have to use it. Forgot to mention that I've also cleared my browser's data several times to no effect.

That's true, it's not ideal, however, it works And plus, Chrome is still in Beta so this might get fixed when they release the final version.

PixelRom NS4G (til Sprint gets the Galaxy Nexus or that HTC beast)
Has anyone tried playing Words With Friends on their new One S yet? It works, but as the title suggests, it's painfully slow when trying to return to the game from the ads after taking my turn (if there was a paid version I would buy it to avoid this). And it even tries to force close! I'm using the most recent version - 4.83.
Just curious if anyone else is having the same experience?
Thanks y'all.
It's probably an issue with the app on ICS rather than your specific model. I haven't played it yet on my phone but I remember even on my SGS2 it started to get annoyingly laggy!

Thanks unclespoon. I have to admit - I never considered for a moment that it was actually a problem with the One S. That phone RULES. I just wondered if others had a similar experience.
Hopefully it will get optimized for the One S and other ICS devices sometime soon.

It doesn't ever sort of stutter or time out on the way back in from the ads? Do you have the newest version of the app? Maybe I'll uninstall/reinstall?
Anyone else out there?
Try going to app info and clearing data/cache. Never seems to stutter at all for me.

Tried this. It's somewhat better, but not smooth. It was never perfect, but it didn't try to force close either. Got one more force close this AM after clearing the data/cache. Still stumped on this one.
I picked up the One S a few days ago...same issues for me, including the FC when it gets tired of waiting. Definitely not the phone--the phone is sick as hell. It was the one to finally knock my HD2 off its perch, and I haven't looked back yet (though I did keep the old girl as CM9 and ICS are still being developed at a nice clip for that device).

That's an interesting point that it might be that it's bad with ICS - not the phone itself (which rules).

When I tried the phone in-store and for the first few days, the transitions between homescreens were silky smooth with every homescreen loaded with widgets. Now it feels like the phone is bogging down. I'm getting lag between all of the homescreens. I've uninstalled every app I've downloaded, and a factory reset hasn't helped. Am I the only one?

Maybe it's running out of RAM and caches are getting dumped as a result.
Factory reset and let it sit for 5 minutes. Use a Ruu to go back to stock
I was actually going to post something very similar. It's very noticeably when going from the home screen to the app drawer.
Phone was amazingly smooth through everything. Now, it lags a bit. Seems like its a memory management issue.
Pretty annoying to say the least!

Same thing is happening to mine. I just reloaded the 1.82 RUU yesterday and did a factory reset before and after the install. It's still doing it. I don't understand why.
Is AT&T or HTC aware of the issue? I'd rather nor void my warranty to fix this.

I called HTC and they said to uninstall my apps. But the problem is that I just factory reset my phone!!! Does anyone know when the 1.82 update will come to the HOX officially?
OTA update on 5/28...I think...don't know what all is included though..

Lag from hone to app screen is because memory management. It doesn't cache the contents and so every time you wait a bit it'll have to reload it. Dumb but hardly an issue.
You can test this by hitting the drawer. Watching it lag. Hitting home and hitting the drawer again and watch it react perfectly. Wait ten minutes and it'll lag again. It has to do with multitasking.

This seems like a decent explanation. The multitasking on the One x is really bad so this doesn't surprise me. I really hope HTC makes an update for this.
That does seem like a plausible explanations. Here's hoping this gets fixed soon
Nevermind........
Op, try using autotuner from the okay store and experiment with some of the values and see if your phone runs quicker.
I have a Verizon S3 and it has choppy animations when switching between apps using the recent apps menu. I've tried turning both animation and transition options to off in the dev menu and it will still sometimes flicker when swapping apps.
Also, the multitasking recent apps menu itself has always been choppy, which is really frustrating. I know touchwiz isn't the best, but I never thought the phone would be this choppy. The phone itself isn't really slow, it's just the fade in / fade out animation / draw time of the recent apps menu is TERRIBLE.
Things I've done to test:
Power saving is always off. I tried turning it on and unchecking the cpu throttling, but no dice.
Tested with brightness set to auto and not auto, but no dice.
Quadrant score was in the low 5000s, which I believe is good.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is this normal, or a sign of a defective phone? Thanks!
For the app switcher, mine hasn't been slow very often unless I'm dealing with Chrome. I have my "Window Animations Scale" set to: .5x so maybe that helps for the app switcher. I have all my transitions set to .5x actually.
I why I personally haven't noticed is cuz I dislike the implementation of the app switcher. I don't use it often unless switching from texting to Web browsing. I've used my mom's Nexus a few times and it's a smarter UI decision there. Holding the home button to activate the app switcher just feels like a step down to GB.

Thanks for the info. I seem to use my mine pretty often. I'm mainly trying to figure out if this is a known bug with touchwhiz (or if this is just how touchwhiz is), or if it's something wrong with the hardware and I need to return it for another phone.
I've also had some odd lag with the notification menu opening and closing, which only began happening in the past week or so.
What do you guys think?
Do you have the "force gpu rendering" box checked? If so uncheck it. I always get choppy when I have that checked.

Nope, I have the power saving options turned off.
I wonder if the slowness with the app changing is just normal...but it always seems faster on videos reviewing the phone online.

While I've tried a factory reset in the past, I didn't know about the recovery menu for non root before. I backed everything up, booted into that, cleared the system cache and then rebooted (triggering the factory reset). I skipped everything during setup and then restored only my Google account, and now everything is silky smooth. The recent apps menu is consistently smooth as well.
Thanks everyone! Hopefully it stays this way.

After playing with it for few days, it's still very smooth when you bring up the recent apps menu and click through to an open app. It's kind of sluggish when opening the menu when you're already in an app. Anyone else seeing that?

It was like that when I was on TW. It runs at like 6 fps and it's extremely disappointing that a badass phone like this would lag there. I read that the recents menu isn't HW accelerated on TW ICS? It's completely smooth on cm10.

I just meant that I've been out of the flashing scene for about a year until recently and this phone has a different method, plus the fact that it took me 2 days to get everything backed up, set back up how I like, etc. I've lost my nerve I guess. I used to be a serial flasher of roms back in the Eris days. New rom that nobody's tried yet? Sure thing. These days I'm even hesitant to flash something if it's tried and true and nobody is seeing any problems. Plus the fact that my hardware is messed up. (I dropped it in water twice by accident and the screen also broke in a separate incident)
