hi all, browsing web pages on my desire hd via 3g network has became a no go. it works fine with wifi. weird thing is though the mobile network is working, ive done a speed test, all my widgets update and using the market is ok but when i bring up dolphin browser hd or the original internet app the progress bar is right at the start then it disappears and it stops trying to load the page, weird
anyone else seen this? not tried a reset yet (would like to avoid). ive turned the phone off and removed the sim but didnt think that would help seeing as though the 3g is working
cheers all
UPDATE - re-installed browser still nothing, installed firefox and it works ok, but dolphin and the stock net app still dont work
Some times ago I have similar problem in Poland.
But this was a problem with the network, not with the device.
Try to change for the while only for gsm, reeboted and back to the dual mode.
Seems like a login issue in network.
If it works in firefox, go to the settings, applications, manage applications, "all" tab, find dolphin browser and the regular browser (called simply "internet" I believe) and press the button that says "clear data". That will reset the apps. You will lose any bookmarks or passwords though.
So inspite of title, really what you have is a problem with Dolphin HD and browser, as Raze suggests try clearing the app data and caches and see if that helps.

So I fixed my battery issue, but now web is just closing on its own. Damn I suck, sorry guys gigantic noob. I don't want to download another browser cause I honestly don't mind the standard browser. I've rooted and done the GPS thing.
Please, help out a struggling peon???

Closing as soon as it opens or after some use? If the former, is your home page set to Google.com with location access enabled?
It's an Android software problem imho. I was just entering a reply in a different xda forum USING OPERA and before I could finish the f'n browser just f'n closed on me. Didn't save where I was browsing or anything.
Has happened to me several times and I don't think it's only the stock browser.
Yeah, google is set as home page and location finder is on.

o noticed that with the lag fix i applied, the browser freezes up or just wont load all the way. I removed the lag fix and everything works fine. I don't even know if there is a way to delete the cache on the ext2 partition. cache cleaner doesn't fix it so it just builds up and builds up

I bet that's your problem. To fix it, try to get into settings before the page finishes loading. Clear location access, and until Samsung releases a fix, don't allow Google.com to have location access.
If you really like the local search feature, try "places directory" from the market in the mean time.
this happened to me everytime i tried to go to flash intesive websites. it wasn't too often though, i ended switching to xscope is the best browser i have used on a mobile device(personal opinion).
give it a try.
stock, dolphin and skyfire all crash on me if i go to some web pages with flash. Turning off use plugins in the settings fixes it.
This is my second vibrant and I have noticed that after browsing web for s small amount of time the browsers keeps closing suddenly and returning to home screen... This happened on my first vibrant as well... Is anyone else suffering from this issue or knows a way to fix this?

Yes this happens, hopefully they will fix it.
There are two options to remedy the situation for now.
1st, go into your browser settings and uncheck plug-ins.
Personally this didn't work for me
2nd option which works flawlessly. The second option is to visit desktop versions of websites. For example, if I visit mobile version of google, it just randomly exits. So what I did is set my homepage to the full desktop version. Since google is my homepage, i went into settings, and typed out the full path for google desktop view into my start page settings.
Again, if your browser randomly closes, try visiting full page views.
I've also noticed this is linked to the GPS issue. Some sites try to get your location. If the site starts trying to find your location, and your gps is bust, the browser just exits.
you could try a 3rd party browser like dolphin or skyfire.

It has been confirmed that on the Mobile version of Google, the "nearest location" check activates the GPS which crashes the browser.
Turn off the GPS. Open a webpage to Google search and finger "Classic" which is half way down the page. This will switch you to the original Google site so that its not trying to get your location when you open a browser window. If a site is trying to use your location it will happen, but in my experience it has only been on mobile sites using location tracking.
There is a setting to turn off - allow websites to request access to your location. Would that help?
This isn't necessarily a location settings issue. It could be a flash issue. When visiting some pages with flash content, the browser will suddenly close and return you to the homescreen. If this is the case, it will happen every time you visit a particular page, and it will also happen with skyfire and Dolphin HD (at least on the 2 phones I have tried them on). Only option to fix this problem is to disable plug-ins in the browser settings.
Good Luck.
Running tasks v5 rom, much better than before, but still get a lot of freezes (forcing a hard reset by me) or force closes where the browser disappears. Nyone else getting these yet?
No browser freeze on mine.
I have problem accessing seekingalpha.com. Browser (stock) wouldn't load content and than just chrashes. It happens everytime, with no exeptions. Could someone try to open it and let me know what happens?

I'm not web expert, so I don't know what's going on with this site, or in what "technology" is it written. But, they have changed site recently, and since than it started to be extremely slow on my HTC Desire (Gingerbread), like beating the hell out of the processor. And now I found out that crashes Honeycomb browser.
Is there any way to contact Google to point them to this problem? I couldn't find it...
Opera or Dolphin can open it. But also, there are some rendering problems in Dolphin with left column (adds and some links on the top). It's dynamic (moving with you as you scroll the page), so that could be source of the problem.
I haven't had a problem with this site really, mostly when the keyboard is up (using Swiftkey) or quickly scrolling. Also other things like samsung email app and a few games seem to cause problems.
All seems very random and infrequent, can't find a pattern to them yet.
Just got my first browser FC today, happened twice when trying to add a bookmark
could this be a hardware problem? The tab freezes several times a day, usually on the browser (use that the most too), also in exchange email app and various games. It's driving me nuts. Tried every rom out there as well as stock and pershoots kernel.
Anyone have any ideas? It's driving me crazy and I'm curious if I could have a serious problem or if it's something the right update could fix.
I use Dolphin for Pad browser (not Dolphin mini or HD). Never had a FC.
tried dolphin. No difference.
have u tried the v6.1, got some (few) lags on v5 but v6.1 is smooth (for me) now
Yes, I've tried 5,6, 6.1,overcome, starburst. Makes no difference.
In Dolphin use the desktop agent instead of Android. It' their mobile site that causes the problem. If your rooted you should be able to set the stock browser to desktop also.
On Tiamat 2.1.0. I was happily using Dolphin Browser HD 6.2.0 until around 2 days ago, when it suddenly stopped connecting. It wouldn't connect to any domain anymore (stock browser works just fine).
So I uninstalled it with the intention of downloading + reinstalling it from the market. Guess what, it's not even showing up in the market! I guess either the makers of Dolphin or Google are hiding it for Honeycomb.
What I did find was Dolphin Mini though, for some reason, so I decided to give it a shot instead. Well, it has the ssame problem Dolphin HD had: it won't connect at all.
I'm stumped at this mess. I tried to find a Dolphin HD apk but didn't want to download just any mysterious file from anywhere. But above all, I have no idea why Dolphin (both HD and Mini) would stop working all of a sudden.
The only change I can remember doing before it stopped working was to update a few apps, including the Opera browser. I don't see how that would affect Dolphin though.
Any ideas, anyone?

Works fine for me. Just go to their website. They have a new beta version of the HD browser.
I have installed a ROM to my Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 7.0" LTE -T235. After it booted up i realised whenever i open the internet or download chrome, when i open it, it does not connect to the websites but loading forever.
Any ideas?
Duck Duck GO works.
You can reset network connection. You are using mobile data or WIFI. You can change dns server.
Do you get ip address when you connect to internet.
on browser when you write website name. You can see loading process. What error you get.
I tried using WIFI and Mobile data as well, neither worked. It simply says the page doesn't respond you can either wait or close it. I believe No other errors, only loading forever.

You can reset browser to default setting. You can uninstall and reinstall browser.
Your internet is working fine.
You can see website loading process at the lower left corner of browser.
