Anyone have a problem where Chrome randomly freezes when scrolling or typing? I have to put it in the background and restore it and then it works again. It's annoying as hell and happens very often. I don't know if it's a Chrome problem or EMUI problem. What's the solution for this? The phone is awesome otherwise but this one thing ruins the experience.
I think I FINALLY found the solution. In chrome://flags find the "Android SurfaceControl" flag and disable it. I disabled it few days ago and didn't have the freezing problem even once.

I dont really know why but my stock browser force close or even unexpected close.
does this happen to you TF?
Mine used to only crash every blue moon, but after the latest firmware update it's crashing quite a bit.
About to try Dolphin HD or another browser...
Yes, so currently I am using Dolphin HD until the build in browser is more stable.
yep..it did randomly force close on mine too... not a huge problem but can be annoying at times..hopefully it gets fixed soon
Mine has been crashing too...it does it on some web pages more than others. If you go to gmail, ti crashes almost all the time. Not that I need to go there, but I was testing to see what cause it to close. Haven't found any reason besides that while it started doing this....my trouble with the blank screen has decreased. I only had to reboot it once last week. But this week it has already blank screen once.
it happenned to me very rarely. But after the update, its doing more often.
Has anyone experienced this or has this been discussed in any thread for the TF? But my stock browser often closes unexpectedly with no force close message and returns to the home screen. When reopened, it forgets the recently the opened pages. Very, very annoying..

I got this a few times last night. It happened mainly on large/busy sites. I think this is an issue that will be rectified with the future 3.1 update.

Had it happen once or twice in the past 3 weeks. I think it is just an HC stability issue.
It seems to happen to me more often after I updated to the latest Adobe Flash 10.3.
Ditto. It has happened here every once and a while... But not enough to bother me.. I assume it will be addressed later.
This happened about 3 times yesterday evening while I was browsing. I don't know if it is related to a HC stability bug, or an Adobe Flash bug, although I'm more inclined towards the former, because I can browse perfectly fine with my Atrix on Flash 10.3. Also, I noticed a strange thing for the first time yesterday: When the browser crashes with no FC message, and you restart it back again, I get a screen filled with banding and multi-colored interference. Only way to fix it is to restart. I hope all of this gets taken care of with 3.1, because the browser experience really leaves something to be desired on 3.0.1 in my opinion. It just does not handle any heavy pages at all, let alone any embedded videos or just videos period.
happens when you try surfing to gmail
If you would like to see it crash 100% of the time, go to your gmail and try to open a message
It also freaks out in Gmail main page.
I was having browser crashes as well until the sudden disk space full error. After my factory reset the browser crashes have gone away. I wonder if they are related.
I got it twice in 3 weeks. It happened both times on Yahoo's ain page.
Happens to me also but never loses its place.
3.1
i first noticed this happening last night, 2nd night after updating to 3.1. never happened before that. i don't have the screen timeout on so the screen will stay on so i can see my moves list at a glance on a website. after about 10-15 minutes of not touching device it will just suddenly return to the homescreen and if i open browser it has to reload the page. i thought maybe it was something to do with the built in android memory management auto killing the browser, since there doesn't appear to be any flash on the page.
i too am having this problem.
Stock browser is where it started, so I go Dolphin HD and it still happens. So its not the browser itself it would seem, since 2 different browsers both do it.
There HAS to be a fix for this...
Since the 3.1 update I'm seeing something different - The browser simply stops responding after a while.

I to am having trouble with my browser. I am experiencing it ceasing to function aftwr awhile as l as frequent crashing when I load it. Crashes all the time if I type anything or use the menu if Ido so before it finishes loading my home page.
When your updated to 3.1, click reset all in the settings menu. Then when it's finish go into the browser settings and set plugins to be on demand. I'm able to run well like that it is flash that kills it, soon as you click the flash content to enable it on a page it may crash.
It happens while browsing. It just shuts down to the Launcher. Actually i can't normally use it because of this.
What can be the problem?
I think the problem disappears only when i turn off Javascript, but without it some pages won't load.
i have same problem, its annoying cause when you open the browser after it closes its lost the page you were on, not sure what the problem is though
i had that problem too, downloaded dolpin brower hd and the problem is over
Only times that happends to me is pages with lots of animation. And flash videos crashing the browser i just uninstalled flash and installed an 10.1 flash apk. Maybe helps quick reply. Cheers
I noticed that flash version over 10.1 does not play videos only resulted in green screen error. Im running opera browser and works 10 fold better. Might be related i dunno.

I had this problem on a previous version, I just deleted/copied it from the system/app folder and reinstalled it and it seemed to work fine.
I think it can be also related with ad blockers. When turned off it seem to stop.
I used adaway, and adfree, but it seem that they can cause some problems.
Nope, still had a sudden shut down. 2-3 tabs open while browsing quite a big website results in sudden shut down of a browser,.and tabs disappear.
So there is no other way than set the dolphin as a default.
Hi guys. Just got a new M8 yesterday. All stock for now.
Having an annoying issue where the browser will just randomly reload while reading a webpage. Makes it impossible to read anything as I get partway through and it just refreshes. It's also happened in several apps including Feedly and Facebook and seems to happen on the home screen sometimes as well.
What's up?

Same issue
I am having the same issue and if I am reading a long article, it is very frustrating. Sometimes it refreshes so fast that by the time I find my place in the article again, it refreshes and I lose my spot once again. Any suggestions? I also have the M8 on Verizon.
Every time I try typing something lately whether its a text, hangouts message, email, url, etc... the default touchwiz samsung keyboard lags pretty bad. Its strange because the rest of the phone runs pretty smooth, its just the key pressing that is terribly sluggish and I cant figure out why. I have all the latest software updates from VZW and the Play Store as well. I tried installing a couple other keyboards too when I got frustrated, like google keyboard and swiftkey but I ended up finding the same thing happening so I got rid of them. Anyone else experiencing this? Any remedies?

When I had this problem when I very first got the phone, the only remedy I found that worked was a firmware reinstall.. Otherwise it's going to keep doing that and I don't know why either!
