I use the web browser on my phone all the time, but starting today it is randomly exiting the web browser for no reason. No freezes, no fc's, and the only other thing running is launcherpro. When I open it I have to go to history to get back where I was. Anyone know what's happening? This is extremely annoying and unusual.
Edit: I've never been rooted and I'm stock DI-18 eclair.

Is it the same website? It couldve been overloaded or something. Try clearing cache?

Go to setting,aplications,mange applications and clear cache from there it should work.And try using Dolphin HD its better than stock and probably best browser.

ok so I've been using cyanogen 6 stacker final build for a while now, and ever since I started the messaging app gives me problems.
Every time I open it up it does a force close. It used to only force close when I only tried to text one person in particular, but now its every time I try to open it.
I've moved on to handscent for all my messaging needs since as that makes it work no problem but I don't get picture messages and when I get a message, it'll still pop up with the force close message sometimes fir the stock messaging app.
I thought there was a problem with the install so today I just went and did a full data wipe and wiped all cache, then loaded a fresh copy of cm6 stable build. Got the phone back to normal with my settings and apps and the messaging app still force closes. Anyone have any ideas what is going on here. Its getting to be a huge pain and while handscent works and is better, the constant force closes is getting beyond annoying.

did you redownload the rom or use the same one as before
Since this obviously isn't a wide problem my guess would be something on your end.
Completely wipe everything and start fresh..Don't add anything once you get the ROM loaded. Start text messaging and see if it works. If it does then it has to be either a program you're adding or some data you're restoring.
Then start adding your stuff one by one and check the messaging app..Thats what I would do.
Yes I redownloaded the app and a wiped everything. Fresh install also. How do I prevent the market from redownloading all my apps once I open it for the first time?
I'll def try the adding one app at a time thing

Ok so I tried to do this and there are two options. One is backup data and that is now unchecked. The other is restore data. That one is greyed out. So if I try a new restore it just puts all the apps and settings back. How do I get it so I can unchecked restore data?
Also when I do a data wipe in among_RA how long should that take? Seems to be going very quick, like 5 seconds tops. Is this normal? For some reason I feel as if my problem is that something is not wiping when I do the wipe in recovery.
Any thoughts?

Ok go the data restore backup crap disabled. Updated to the lastest amon_RA version 1.8
Went into recovery and wiped everything and reinstalled the stable cm6 rom.
So far so good, but I go to the messaging app and same ****. I get force closes with one specific contact, once that happens it just starts its random force closes no matter what contact.
So what could this be? Is something not wiping correctly? Please anyone have any suggestions or help?

So again to note, I'm still having the force closes on a fresh install of cm6 no other apps installed from market. Nothing.

I'm the mean time, I went back to fresh rom 3.2 just to stop all the force closes in the messaging app. I really hate sense and its bloated self. There must be a solution.....
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Well I fixed it on my own. Was using fresh rom and stated to get some what similar problems with the one contact as before. So I un linked the contact from facebook, and completely deleted the contact all together. Then I made a new google contact and put in the mobile number and saved it. This time I did not link it to the facebook profile. Low and behold I have cm6 another shot this morning with a fresh wipe and install and all is well and working (so far) with no force closes.

You should probably post your question in the Iced Galcier rom thread so the developers can see it.

I answered this question in the ROM thread.
It is caused by the browser cache being filled. The stock browser can only have a max cache size of 6 MB. The pages you are loading are larger than the cache, which causes the browser to close and clear the cache. You'll notice that when you open the browser back up it goes to the default start page.
Try Dolphin HD or Skyfire from the market, they look to have dynamic caches sizes that get cleared when necessary or upon exit.

bchen03 and dclaw_fantum are correct. There were also users experiencing FC due to Adobe Flash Player. Ultimately, the browser and Ice Glacier perform flawlessly for me and most everyone else. If it's not the issue dclaw_fantum posted, Adobe Flash Player could also be at play. From what everyone posted, it looks like just going to the Market and reinstalling Flash helped.
Does anyone else's browser force shut while trying to load random sites and close all your tabs? Mine happens quite frequently and has become rather annoying. Also for some rreason it forgot my pw an usernsme for xda and now it don't ask to save, anyone know how to reinitiate that prompt?
Mine occasionally closes as well. Also, my keyboard entry seems to lag like crazy!
WTF?
Trust me the lag on xda app isn't near as bad as it is on xoomforums.com. hoping a simple software update will fix this.

Thats a good point. I have experienced the odd crash of the browser and frankly the ONLY site I have issues browsing is this site (xda). When the site loads the performance of the browser drops off considerably. If I have additional tabs open (to other sites) the browser will fall over. I wonder what it is about this site (especially scrolling the main page) chokes the browser so much. Again, any other site or combo of sites that I normally troll all work fine, fast, stable.

Try and use a different browser. I'm using firefox and I'm not having any issues at all. To reinitiate setting for browser go to settings applications browser clear cache and set to defaults will get it.

I love mozilla anyway
my browser closes all the ttime. Seems to have picked up lately as well. Almost every time I switch tasks the browser crashes and loses all my open tabs
At first, this wasn't really a problem...over that past day or so, it's crashed several time. Last night I was purposely opening up 3-4 normal tabs (cnn, google, facebook, hopstop). It crashed at least 10 times in about 20-25 mins.
This is getting very annoying. I know can use another browser, but come on, I should be able to use the stock browser.
bump. anyone else have this issue? my browser has crashed on me about 10 times today...and of course had to crash as i was demonstrating the device to some apple fanboys and talking about how much cooler it is
I've had maybe one or two crashes since I've had it, but none in the last two days.
i am having some issues with pages not loading properly and where pdf / imagr download that the page does not a sign the file extension to do not load where they did on I pad. I am confident google will fix soon tho.
I noticed that when I use heavy amount of apps, my browser simply wont work. I use the task manager to kill apps but no go. It just loads a white screen and must do a full restart. I like this tablet with full hdmi but might return it. Anyone else have this issue or fixes? Couldnt find it on search.

Yes, this is a common issue and it is due to incompatabilities between the apps and HC 3.2.1. The mount point was changed for the SDcard. the apps that try to cache to the SDcard are having issues. The browser is one of them. A lot of people are using Dolphin HD. They going into the settings and telling not to cache to the SDcard. It does not eliminate the problem, but seems to make it managable. It will take a change in the apps to fix the issue. Dolphin has a beta out that address this issue.
Thank you!
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
Please note that the Dolphin beta does not address the problem. Periodic wiping of the cache is still required to prevent the browser from locking up.
According to the support email I got from Dolphin, the beta 7.2.1 has this issue corrected. And so far as I can tell, it has solved the problem.

Dolphin HD appears to have been fixed for the thrive, so far no lockups. The developers jumped on it and fixed our issue fast.

That browser is by far my favorite with it's speed and ability to use flash. But every time I use it it has this error at least once. Anybody else have this or know a way to stop it?
Try clearing the data of the browser and that should sort it out for you.
