Hello to all,
I noticed that the browser became laggy, i can't scroll smooth. It's not on every page but it is on XDA (for example).
When I bought the tablet it was working better.
Anyone has the same issue?
Same thing here. Especially on XDA.
This perfomance drop is due to poor javascropt support on all honeycomb tablets.
Not fixed with 3.1 as per the xoom and tf forums so dont hold your breathe. Here the real issue is not your tablet but it is googles OS.

try running in desktop mode. in the address bar type "about:debug", thn go to settings,debug,uastring, and change to desktop
also scroll to the bottom of the XDA page.
And switch it from XDA 2010 to XDA classic.
Classic doesn't look as nice, but it is a ton smoother.

Except you have to do that every time you re-open the browser.

No, just after each reboot. Which is still a pain and is something that really should have been addressed. This issue was present in Android 2.2 and should not have been allowed to creep over into Honeycomb.

I found a tip over in the Acer Iconia section for smoother scrolling that works pretty well with the Xoom.
Change the look of the forums found at the bottom of the page from XDA 2010 to XDA Classic. Looks a little ugly color wise but adds a noticeable increase in speed
Awesome thanks. Seems to improve the text entry delay as well.
i use dolphin browser and I haven't noticed any difference
I use Opera browser mostly for XDA. Works great with the 2010 theme.

sad that they have to dumb down a great app just so it will work on their tablet...maybe it subconciously knows its inferior...

Sorry missed it
Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know that there is a great new Honeycomb browser available in the market from the Dolphin team called Dolphin Pad. I've been using it for a few minutes now and I've gotta say that it's the smoothest 3rd party browser i've tried. Give it a try and post your thoughts.
Cheers
EDIT: I can confirm that HD content from amazon instant video & youtube play silky smooth
do u mean..the dolphin hd 6.0??
It also lets me use flash 10.3

Nope! Dolphin Pad https://market.android.com/details?id=com.dolphin.browser.pad
Im on it as we speak. It does seem kinda promissing in speed but had it 10 minutes using xda in the new mode with no hasitation
After using this a whole day and comparing it to say stock browser im back to stock.it turns out to be faster .sometimes the dolphin pad freezes right at the end of loading some web sites. I think its a flash or Java issue as sometimes it seems as thou its a add that is stooping it.
With that said it is in beta I sent Dev a message its promising
search dolphin pad in market to get
Can somebody please post the apk. Thanks

How's it so different from the regular dolphin HD browser?
Sent from my A500 using XDA Premium App
Just DLed it and spent the last 30 minutes putting it through its paces. One weird random close, but otherwise very smooth and fast. Does a good job even on CNN flash videos, and the gesture feature seems a bit more accurate than the 6.0 HD I was using.

To be honest, I haven't been using Dolphin HD so I'm not qualified to compare the two. I definitely suggest trying it out though!
So not for us with 10" tablets running Android 2.2? Shame.
Dolphin HD I've noticed when you scroll down, you lose the tabs. With DolphinPad, they stay. Also, Fullscreen on Pad seems better, can't really describe it. Pad doesn't have that annoying gesture thing on the bottom either. Swiping side to side for shortcuts seems more fluid. Flash works well. Just seems much more optimized for the tablet. Settings layout is much better imho. Overall, Pad = Win in my eyes. I'm coming from the Asus Transformer, but I can only imagine similar performance for the Iconia.

I tried it for about an hour, then removed it. Can't find how to use gestures, and rendering on some sites sucks compared to dolphin browser HD.

It is a very promising browser and a distinct upgrade over Dolphin HD 6. However, I couldn't find a quick way to import bookmarks from Dolphin HD and the address bar did not show the "home" icon (or I could not find it), so if anyone from the Dolphin team is reading this, please add these functions.

You know you can disable the gestures in settings from working or displaying.

Oh what an app! Superb....am short of words. Faster than native browser.I pushed the thanks button...hope I could do it 100 times for u.
I've been using it for a while now and I am very happy with it; it has also become my default browser; download the ReadItLater add on and you're set
I see this issue on ALL APPS and DIFFERENT LAUNCHERS.
I cant scroll properly when using quickpic or changing screens on lauchers only does it on ICS. Running STOCK. Does not do this when I go back to gingerbread but while on ics its annoying
Can't say that I've had this issue. The only time that my touch screen acts wonky is when the charger is plugged in, then it acts very odd sometimes.

Just curious about what you mean when you say you can't scroll properly?
You mean you can't scroll at all or what?

I found Force GPU rendering to use 2D hardware acceleration in applications but it didnt change anything
its not lag that I am having. Its issues with say when swiping through pics in the gallery or quickpic where scrolling just sucks
I responded in another post by you (best GB rom or something) and asked why you wanted to change to GB.
ICS is very smooth swiping up down, left right, on any ICS rom. Not laggy at all. However I do have an issue with one app regarding sideway scrolling, but that is a UK specific app, and the dev knows about it. Quickpic scrolling is super smooth for me, and so is on Apex, Nova and my preferred choice, GoLauncher.

i mean everything is EXTREAMLY smooth. It just acts up. When moving faster it kinda acts up and glitches like going up it will sometimes go down. I know its not an issue with MY note as it does it with my AT&T version too

If I go slow everything is fine. But when going fast its very annoying, it doesnt happen on Gingerbread
Lick I can flick my finger fast sometimes and it will go SLOW as well
i hear you man..same issues here..thats why im back on the silky stock rooted gb.....same thing you say...it is smooth, but its glitchy when scrolling everywhere...noticed the same thing
one more thing, why couldnt they stick to the beautiful gb rotation animation in ics?in ics rotation is a bit choppy, you'll notice it particularly when exiting from apps from the landscape mode to the launcher( eg: mx player)...
so back on good old gb for now
The fugu tweaks mod might help you. Look for it in developing section of these boards.

When replying to a post on XDA from my Note 3, the cursor in the reply windows keeps jumping about. It doesnt go where I want it to go. Im trying to put the cursor after the '[/QUOTE]' tag but it keeps jumping back up to the middle of the post!
The stock browser is worse than Chrome as in the stock browser, when trying to select text, the cursor is jumping around like its on a pogo stick!
Clear cache from the apps. Close it and try again.

Same issue Samsung stock browser is pretty crap. HTC stock browser is far better.
One solution you could try is revert back to xda classic view that will solve cursor issue.
