Browsers keep crashing. - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Hi all,
I hope you're all doing well. I can use some help if anyone is willing to lend a hand. Just recently my phone has started to act up but I only have proof of one of the issues. So I can open any browser but it'll just crash shortly after opening a page. It happens on any browser stock or (dolphin, boat, naked) I only have logcats of boat and stock though.
To the best of my knowledge the only thing I had done was update boat like 2 updates ago. I've done nothing else besides that and my ui change, but I have no other apps spontaneously crashing. Hell even other apps with built-in browsers work no problem.
I've attached two logcats of first starting the app to where it crashes and a screenshot of my rom and ui settings. If there is more information needed let me know.
Thank you in advance.

Do you get the same thing with Chrome? Also try turning off JavaScript, or force desktop mode, or incognito mode. All of those have been suggested as a workaround in the nexus 7 forums.

Hi rpr69,
So Chrome doesn't crash. That's pretty sweet but yet I find Chrome to be a lot slower than stock or anything else... Might have to hit up the 7 forums to see if there is something that I might have missed.
Just wondering though would you know if Flash might be a common element in these crashes?
~PsyCl0ne
EDIT: Actually quite bizarre my browsers aren't crashing anymore... No phone reboot or anything.

the exact same thing was happening to me. I hardly even open the browser and the one time I tried, it crashed almost immediately like 10 times in a row!
I'm on CM10 nightlies. I will have to update to 1204 tonight and test again. I'm blaming CM10 for now.... :crying:

[Q] xda-developers forum extremely slow on transfo

Has anyone else noticed how xtremely slow this forum is on the transformer? Navigating the pages and even typing this out is very frustrating. I thought it was flash but I uninstalled it and it is still very bad. Any help or info is appreciated. The default keyboard helps a little bit, but typing is very laggy as well.

I'm not experiencing this via the browser. Also, you may want to buy Tapatalk

So far this website really seems to be the only one I have problems with using the stock browser, or even some of the other browsers.
I did find that Opera Mobile seems to work very well with XDA though.

I'm having the EXACT same problem and only with XDA Dev's site. I got so frustrated that I wiped my Transformer thinking it might have been an issue with the ROM. Still same issue. Really don't want to use Tapatalk on a damn tablet but what can I do... At least I know I'm not alone.
Also, I did update Flas to 10.2 not sure it is related.
Yeah the app is so slow. I think its the app tho, whats tapatalk

It IS really rotten using the default browser. Firefox is a bit better. The worst part is getting that ">" new postings link large enough to click on it. In Firefox, there is an additional new postings link that is still hard to click but larger. Hopefully as tablets become more common, sites will make some accommodation.

This forum always gives people issues..
But it has a relatively easy fix.
Scroll all the way to the bottom right and then change XDA 2010 to XDA classic. All your problems should vanish!
I'm having the same issue on my Acer a500. I was getting ready to return it and wait for a transformer. I guess its just xda developers site. Thanks.

It appears to be the Flash ads that are driving it crazy, so no problem with those on the iPad heh. The TF tries to render all of them, and although they do work they are very slow.
You would think that without flash installed, it wouldn't try to render them, but it appears to get stuck on them for some reason. It doesn't make a difference with or without flash, still unbearably slow. Can we pay $5 a month to get the flash ads turned off? LOL...

I love this site & I would pay to get rid of all ads to make my browsing faster on my TF101. I'll have to try the classic mode which was mentioned in a few post earlier when I get home from work.
The xoom had the same issue and switching to classic worked for a while until they updated the xda premium app. Not sure if the xda premium app will work for the tf but I would try that.
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
Not sure it's the Flash ads. I have the browser set to only load Flash on demand, so the Flash ads are not shown. And it it's still extremely laggy.
I just tried switching to "XDA Classic", that fixed it. Ugly as hell, but it works now.

Browser Problems

About twice a day, when browsing with the default browser, it will lock up, give the one vibrate followed by two...stay locked up, do the vibration pattern again and then present a black screen. About two minutes later, it appears it rebooted but never showed the Samsung or AT&T logos...
Anyone else having this issue?

Has not happen to me.
It could have been the site you visited. Try Dolphin HD, much better than stock browser.

All of the Galaxy S phones experience this occasionally when viewing certain heavy websites like the pocketnow.com desktop site, especially if you get a few tabs going. Nice to see Samsung still hasn't fixed that. I suggest Opera Mobile.
I can vouch for the browser crapping out on any large website, this was one of reasons I switched from the captivate to the inspire. Used an infuse today and noticed the browser froze right away on anything with flash content.
I like the stock browser but I will try Opera Mobile for a while to see if it helps...it was my browser of choice on WM 6.5
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA Premium App
If I remember correctly on my captivate there were a few development who had tweaked the browser.apk to fix rendering issues and freezing. Will have to go back and read changelogs on some of the custom roms

Well here's my quandry... I like the stock browser and I didn't have this problem with my Captivate... I am just really hoping that we can find a solution for this. I did reset the browser back to default settings and so far in the past couple days this is not happened... I'm not saying it fixed it but I will monitor it for a few days.
Side note however..
How can I make one of the other browsers the default browser and also where do I go to reset that back to the stock browser?
Thanks...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA Premium App
If you're having problems with the stock browser just switch to an alternative like dolphin or firefox etc. Many improvements over the simple UI and limited functionality of the stock browser anyway.

I'm trying something different now... I think I was on wi-fi each and every time that the browser locked up the phone and rebooted... I am going to try to keep it off of wifi for a few days and do regular browsing see what happens

[Q] Is your XDA app glitchy on your xoom? (Mine is wifi version)...

Hi all,
I am wondering if anyone else is having the same problem with the XDA app as I am on my Xoom WiFi?
I have seen some people post about FC's, etc and I too have experienced the random FC here and there in this and other apps but my issue is different.
When I am in the app and say in a post where there is lots of pictures (post your home screen for example) or if there are a lot of "hot links" embedded in the page, when I scroll, the page does not scroll properly, becomes glitchy and I get "tracers" of everything posted on the page until I stop moving the page and then it goes back to normal. (I hope I explained this fairly well).
Anyone else seeing this? Is this a bug in the app on the Xoom? I do not see these same problems in any other app or in the Browser... Just in XDA and I have the XDA Premium app.
Please advise,
Thanks...
XDA barely works on my wifi xoom. I tried to buy the premium one but it would force close market everytime I tried. The free version does not work very well.

Hmmm... Well in that case, I hope XDA is going to put out a new version of the app that is "optimized" for Tablets very shortly then.
Any Dev's or Mod's listening? LOL!!!
Seriously though... I hope that something comes out soon and since I already have the Premium app, I hope that I will not be charged again for a Tablet optimized version.

Xoom tremendous keyboard lag

Keyboard lag in forums/message boards when using all browsers, does anyone have a fix for it?

Switch to XDA classic. Scroll to the bottom and switch. That'll fix the XDA lag.

keyboard lag
Thanks for the quick reply. The problem with the lag in the keyboard is on all sites with message boards or forums...I.e. yahoo, YouTube, etc... I have no lag when doing emails or typing in notepad. I have tried half a dozen keyboards, but the problem persists.
I called Motorola, but they were more interested in telling me they have no fix because no one has complained about that before, and I could just return it.

The keyboard lag still exists in 3.2. It's pretty ridiculous that there isn't a fix yet.
On a side note:
Another thing that is annoying the hell out of me is when I pop up my keyboard and start typing it opens a random program.

How did you brick it. o-o
I hated that keyboard lag!! The only fix I ever found was to download thumb keyboard on the android market for honeycomb. This fixed the keyboard lag all across the board for me. I am on 3.1 on a 3G Xoom Stock. Too bad I had to pay to get a fix and if there is a fix without this keyboard then please post!

Ditto, I've used several browsers, always get lag, I love when it finally starts typing, but the first few letters are now just gone. Or when it finally starts showing characters, and the browser does a force close.

Google Search has Stopped.

Hello all. Man, it's been a while. Well, on to business.
I just downloaded the most recent update about... A month ago or so I think?
The past 2 weeks, however, my Google search has stopped working. If I access the app or click the search bar on my home screen, it pops up for a second, then crashes and gives me the option to report. Also crashes when I try to use voice in Chrome.
So far I have:
1. Cleared cache, data, etc.
2. Uninstalled updates. It didn't work before re-updating it, and I have now done this 4 times.
3. Reinstalled updates to no success.
4. Attempted to backup my phone with the stock backup, only to have it fail, thus blocking a factory reset (don't want to lose my data). This is ALSO an issue I am having, so advice here would also be appreciated, though not necessary. I think my broken GoogleSearch messed it up anyway.
Has anyone found a solution to this? Is anyone else having this issue? Or has my famously bad luck rendered me the only one again?
I am running a bone stock D800, unrooted. Please no hate for my lack of root; every time I root I seem to break something (bad luck, not inexperience!), and I tried to keep from it this time.
If you have just a patch or workaround that's perfect. My goal is to keep my G2 functioning until April 2015, then I can get a new phone. Any help appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
