Sorry if this was already a question but I'm on the app and itdoesnt have thread search. (Which is stupid). But I just noticed today that my stock browser wont work. Web apps do and so does Firefox, and it works on wifi but not the mobile network. I like the stock browser and would like to still use it. J really would like to avoid a full wipe though. If anyone could help that would be great. Thanks in advance.

hopefully someone will correct me on this, but it is my understanding that whether or not you get a mobile site is not dependent on your browser, but rather some of the information that is given to the website when you contact it for content.
Here's to dreaming about hulu on my captivate while I work out... *swooon*
Just use skyfire it has the ability to make sites think that your using a desktop browser

I know but I like the standard browser and on 2.1 you could change it. Thx

On every other android phone you can enter about:debug in the browser & it will give you more settings like ua string where you have the option to choose between android, iphone & desktop but on the captivate this bricks the browser & you have to do a factory data reset to get the browser working agin or use an alternative from the market to go online agin! (SO DON'T TRY IT!!!) Someone should really try & fix this! I actually like the stock browser other than this. Now im using dolphin because of this but its not as fast as stock.

I've been running SkyFire and I am still not able to view Hulu regardless of my browser settings
No matter what I do my phone will not let me choose a default browser. I have tried everything I know how to do, yet everytime I go to a new address or click on the link I have to click multiple times before I can proceed. The only solution that has worked is uninstalling the other browsers.
For what its worth I'm running cm7

Hi guys,
I had heard of it, but never really experienced it. The main feature I could annoy Apple fans with is now gone. Flash is not availaible for Android anymore.
I just switched to ICS and realised it's not avalaible to my chrome browser.
I searched the web to try to find something to replace it, but haven't anything yet.
I understand that HTML5 will eventually replace flash, but what about existing flash application? There's no way to run them anymore except switching to an older browser? There must be another workaround. what you guys use to run existing flash application?
Can't believe i'm at the same level then apple fans now
P.S. If there was already some threads about that, sorry to repost. This forum is so huge, can't see everything.
Chrome will NOT and ever support flash. However other browsers (dolphin or FireFox) still do and getting flash is as easy as downloading an apk and installing it

I confirm it, after installing the apk of flash there's no troubles, excpet for Chrome as it is not supporting flash. I personally use Firefox for example.
Ok, so when I tether to my computer using Wifi-Tehter for Root, I can do everything thing but watch youtube videos if I have a different user agent applied to my Browser. I use Firefox, and everything in firefox works except videos under 720p on Youtube. 720+ nd higher videos work fine. This is a recent problem, been using my phone to tether to the web for a while now since campus internet is god-awful.
Am I ther only one having this problem, and is there any solution?
The only other programs that doen't work would be the Store and community pages of steam. It comes up with that Tmobile hotspot shield thing.
Probably not the fault of the phone, since your phone does tether obviously and sends/receives packets so that can't be the problem. Try updating flash & then try another browser. That would be the solution for yt videos problem.
But steam issue is prolly somekind of protection of t-mobile.
Updating flash and trying a different browser doesn't work. I am experience the same issue as the OP.
did you guys ever figure this out??
Stock tmobile roms force tethering through pcweb.tmobile.com. if your on a stock room,. Try adding an additional apn and use that if that's the case.

I am on a CM rom. Stock rom doesn't seem to have this problem with me but it is also a bit more unreliable when it comes to tethering. Have we figured out how to remove the pcweb apn?
Solution FOUND? Yes
I was having the same issue as OP while tethering my SAMSUNG Galaxy NOTE. Tried the APN Backup and Restore app procedure with tethering apn fix with no luck.
Here is my solution -
BROWSER: Opera (stock latest version; no UA addon or modifications)
YOUTUBE PROXY: bestyoutubeproxy .info
Now I can watch all YouTube videos <720p otherwise tmo-blocked on regular YouTube site. Try it out. If you find a better solution please share. Thanks!
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.
