DISCLAIMER: Yes, I searched. No, I didn't find an answer or a fix.
I flashed Cleanrom 4.1.1 Inheritance on my Asus Infinity. All of a sudden, the only browser that loads any images at all is Chrome, and to be honest, the mobile Chrome sucks. I tried Boat Browser, Maxthon, and the stock browser and none of them will load images from the web, just displaying a small blue box with a question mark in it. I have tried clearing cache, and uninstalling Flash Player. No luck.
What is wrong and how can I fix it?
Stock browser: Settings -> Bandwith management -> [x] Load images
Or maybe your ad blocking is too aggressive. Did you install cross breeder? It uses an alternate DNS solution that can cause the issue you describe.

Yes, I did. If I install CHROMi X over 3.x I shouldn't have any problems if I don't install the cross breeder during the ROM installation?
Thanks for the reply.

Why would Chrome be working but none of the other browsers work though?

It didn't work. I have images enabled. This tablet has caused me more trouble than any other android device I've ever used. Starting to get very frustrated.
EDIT: I flashed your stock 4.2.1, wiped system and data, factory reset, cleared cache and dal, reflashed it, and rebooted, and STILL the images wouldn't load. My S4 loads everything fine, so it's not my network. I guess I'll have to deal with it because it seems to be a problem with Android.

Don't use the flash from the market. Your best bet for now is to install the version on the Viewsonic G Tablet Favorites site. There are other versions of the flash file found in this forum, but I suggest you get to a stable state first before you try another version.

You should either use the version of flash from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865245
Or you may do as I did, I uninstalled 10.1 and installed 10.2
Flash 10.2 works good with my stock browser.

Hi Everyone,
I am having an issue with the stock browser user agent not 'sticking.' If i select desktop or tablet I am still directed to the mobile sites. I know there are other browsers, but I really like using Chrome and don't want to switch. Any ideas as to what I can do to rememdy this?

It can be fixed if you are on a custom rom otherwise you are out of luck
This is issue with the latest update and I hope they fix it with the next update. ASUS are fast with the updates but at the cost of not testing them properly.
if u have rooted device , u can install the last revolver rom , its fix this problam
I'm also having this problem since the last update... which seems to have broken more than it fixed

Nothing you can do except wait for Asus to push a fix OTA or Root and use on of the custom ROM that already have the fixed.

I resolved mine on Dolphin for Pad by going to the bottom of the web page and selecting Preferences.
Once the page loads I then selected 'Desktop Version' followed by 'Get this'.
It will then reload the page and display all in Desktop mode.
unfortunately it happened to me too... its so annoying that I might restore my nandroid backup of the previous version of revolution HD. Are there any fixes for us rooted folks or do I have to install a specific ROM that has this fixed already?
Bump, anyone know a fix for rooted\custom roms, or should I revert back to the previous version of Rev HD?
Not only is the user agent wrong in Chrome... just by using multiple taps makes the browser just shut down without any notice or anything... it just shuts down.... and it's 100% do do that too...
Google... FIX IT!!!
Since ICS Flash makes all my browsers freeze up when trying to play Youtube content (especially fullscreen mode).
Yes i have issues playing flash video too.. i cant get twitch.tv to work. I have tried opera, dolphin and stock browser.. it was workibng fine before ics
hey yeah same problem here.
even tried with chrome browser and still can't play flash
Hmm, I tried flash in Dolphin on OTA ICS and it seems to be working OK. At least I was able to play YT clips. Maybe uninstalling and installign flash again will help? Or clearing its data/cache via applications management?
I cannot find anywhere to clear the cache on Flash. I can only uninstall/reinstall it. All I get is a grey window when I try to play any videos on youtube. If I force the user agent to desktop mode in Dolphin for instance it will play but if I try to fullscreen it it will just hang.
EDIT: I found a workaround. The default browser sends you to m.youtube.com and if I try to play a video it just gives me a grey rectangle. However if you press the rectangle the seekbar comes up. If you then press the seekbar advance a little it will then play fine and you can even fullscreen it. Nice big fat bug there though.

To fix Flash in ICS, follow these steps:
1. Wipe Data & Cache for the Flash App
2. Uninstall the Flash App
3. Reboot your TF101
4. Install the latest Flash from Market
Your Flash should work fine, after following the steps above. Let me know if this solved your problem.

After i updated to ics i did a factory reset, does that count as data wiping/clearing flash cache? Flash seems to work ok for me on some sites but as mentioned before twitch.tv doesnt play on any browser. How can i clear my flash data/cache?

Use Titanium Backup and Wipe App Data for Flash. You can uninstall the app in Titanium, too.
[edit: Titanium Backup is only for Rooted ROMs. You can go to apps in the Settings menu and select the Flash App if you are on a non-rooted ROM to clear data and cache, as well as unistall Flash. If it is greyed out, then there is probably no data or cache info to wipe and you can proceed to uninstall.]

My tf is not rooted. I have done what u recommended (app settings/clear cache/app data/uninstall/reinstall flash) still no luck with twitch.tv. Before ics, it was working perfectly. On another note, flash does not work at all on opera browser. Opera doesnt detect that flash is installed.
Has anyone on a non-root TF running ics got twitch.tv to work? Im starting to regret the update.
I have the same problem, even after wiping data and cache, uninstall, reinstall flash. For me this is no solution.
G'day...
I have exactly the same problem as described in the early posts. I have tried reinstalling the Flash player repeatedly with no success. I get similar symptoms in both the stock browser and in Dolphin.
I think I'll stop trying to fix it for a while before I throw the damn thing through the window.
My unit is an un-rooted TF101G and I only got ICS update sent out last week - I thought they would have ironed out all the bugs by now. Right now all I want to do is go back to Honeycomb...
I had the problem when I switched to ICS Gnufabio ROM. Flash and even youtube stock player would cause problems in HD fullscreen. Videos were unwatchable. I switched to CM9 ROM - the same thing.
However, since flashing Megatron 1.0.3, flashing gapps again and with TestyMeh 1.0 kernel running @ 1.2 it suddenly started to work!
I've been experiencing the same problem.
I've found that it sometimes works if I go into full-screen mode first, and then plug in the HDMI cable. It all goes black for a few seconds, but then the video shows up in fullscreen on my TV.
As for the freezes, usually I have to close the browser, kill it, open it (and sometimes repeat several times before I can even navigate back to the page), then fire up the video again. But I've found that sometimes I can just power off the device (ie tab power button to turn off display), then turn it back on after a couple seconds, and video starts playing again correctly.
What a pain, though. Never had these problems with Honeycomb.

Hi all, wondering if anyone found a solution to this issue? I'm on stock rom 4.0.3 (no root), YouTube play fine for me as it's html5 but any online content that uses flash player lagging badly. Will HD rom fix this issue ? Thanks
Ps: tried full wipe and installed latest version of flash player, no luck though.

Frederuco posted this on his 4.3 ROM tutorial
Yes and no - Adobe has dropped flash support for Android. The latest versions were for 4.0 in August 2012.
HOWEVER - You can still sideload flash. First, go to Settings - Security - Unknown Sources. Tick the box. Next, go to the Adobe Archives and download the latest version for Android 4.0. After it downloads tap on it to install it.
Flash works well in the stock Browser, Firefox, Firefox Beta and Boat Browser. Dolphin has disabled flash support for JellyBean last time I checked.

I know I sideloaded flash and it only worked when I got the right version, and to tell you the truth I haven't a clue whether it is still working as I am on KatKiss KitKat 4.4.v22 now and don't use flash pages much. I do remember a lot of people talking about sideloading Flash as the only way to get it to work.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
Forgive me if there was a thread about this already, but I looked as far as i can. This has been happening for a while and I about had it with this. To start of obviously I have an Asus Tf700. Its rooted and I have the Browser2Ram equivalent fix also in this forum [Q] Browser2Ram with JB 4.2.1 not working. I'm also using the stock browser.
Now to the problem. Around 80% of the time I open a webpage that has an image only it in, like imgur, it only loads as far as the screen can see. I would be content with hitting Ctrl+R but the damn thing will also only load what the screen can show leaving the rest blank when I scroll (see attached image). I have to go to the address bar and hit enter to have the page reload and that fixes it. I have to do it a lot and its driving me crazy. Also like 5% of webpages will sometimes load with all the text in one row with usually a black background (What I usually get on my PC when I'm fully utilizing the bandwidth with downloading) without any cause.
Is there any fix to this? I'd rather stay with the stock browser as it is almost perfect except for this.
Thanks.

It's not much you can do with stock rom (still locked), many complained that it laggy and slow. I have tried stock rom before and it was running great for a about a week or so then it became laggy and stuttering. The only thing that you can do is do a clean install (reflash the rom). If that doesn't help then you need to think about unlock your device for custom rom/kernel.

Reflashing the ROM replaces the contents of the /system partition with exactly the same file that were already there. Since the /system partition is read-only, reflashing the ROM is only useful for repairing 'accidents' with rooted programs, but not for fixing browser issues in a stock ROM. For that, you can only play with deleting things on /data.

Yes, I did.

Then when you want to attach it to a post click on the paperclip icon and upload the image as a url (again make sure you enter the url that ends with the .jpg). I hope that helps.

I was about to ask this question too. I am on stock jelly bean, unrooted.. But I have tried so many browsers (dolphin, boat, Firefox, stock, etc) and they all have this problem. Chrome and opera does not seem to have this problem. Does anyone seem to have an idea of what the problem is?
Possible Solution
Hi,
I was thinking of a possible solution this afternoon but unfortunately I don't know how to implement it. Clearing the cache of the broswer app seemed to help mitigate the problem but not eliminate it completely. Would it be possible to write something to increase the capacity of the broswer's cache, or have it clear on its own everytime it's run?
Thanks again!
When I bought the Phone the app worked perfect, but since .12 it doesn't work anymore. I reinstalled but nothing works. I can see the menu but When I try to watch something says loading forever. Is there a way to fix it? Thanks in advance

Still no solution to this problem? I've had this since I got the phone back in November. Updated straight to 4.2, never tried it on 4.1. I can't believe this hasn't been solved yet, with the recent releases and everything. Meanwhile I've just been using this app, it's a bit outdated but at least it does the job.
