not rooted and on the latest update
Ive noticed that there are times when i hit the back button on the browser, it will take me back 2 pages instead of the previous page.
Say for example im on google's home page. I look something up, find and click a link.. once i hit the back arrow (either on the browser app or tablet arrow), it will take me all the way back to the google home page..
anyone notice this before? am i missing an option?
thanks

I noticed that in the stock ( and actually also any other browser ) browser when you hit the back button , it will display the previous page but from the top of it and not where you actually where. That's quite annoying especially when clicking a link in the middle of a very long page.

Mine goes back to where I had been at.
So does mine.
Hmm, now you make me nervous. If I hit the back button the browser will go back to the previous page and for few seconds ( until it finishes to load the page ) it will show it to the exact point where I left it. But then the page will be scrolled all the way up to the very top of it.
Please confirm that I am the only one.

Mine does it too. What's annoying is that when I go to another app then back to the browser...it loads the previous page I was on instead of the page I left.
Why don't you long press and open in new tab/window?
Then you definitely know where you were, and can continue browsing through the link without losing your page/place.
It happens with both the stock browser and Dolphin. Maybe I'm not using it correctly, but everytime I long press the home button to bring up the active apps and select the browser, I'm expecting to see the last page/position I was on. Well, the annoying thing is that both browsers go back one page. how do I stop this? Not sure if it happens all the time.
I think this is an Android bug. It happens frequently if you launch a webpage from another program (like the News Widget) and then long press to go back to the browser.
Try going to home and launching the browser via home screen icon or all programs icon.
Hey. That works! Thanks. I knew that it didn't happen all the time. Couldn't figure it out tho. LoL. Thanks for the quick reply! I'm gonna have to reset my habit now.
I hope someone can help me.
I am having a problem with the browser on stock Android 3.2.
Whenever, I go onto a website (e.g. Facebook) and press on a text entry box, it does not pop up the onscreen keyboard, but rather reloads the page. If i press again on the text entry box, the onscreen keyboard pops up. This happends on every text box. I have a even bigger problem with the browser than that.
If i click on a link, it takes me to the link, either on the first time i press on it or the second time in most cases. If i then press on a link on the newly opened page, it automatically takes me back to the previous page, instead of going where the link indicated. It is as if the tablet has a mind of its own.
I have tried Dolphin browser, and it seems to be doing the exact same thing. I do have a screen protector on, however, i doubt it could have any thing to do with what the tablet is doing? Or can it?
I really hope someone can help, cos I basically cannot use the tablet for browsing, at this stage. :crying:
Thank you in advance
Does anyone else have an issue using the stock browser when using the back button? When I follow a link and try to go back to the previous page, it always sends me back up to the very top of the page. Is there any way to fix this other than using a different browser?
Previous page is reseting always to default page on stock browser v4.1.2

Have exactly the same situation, any advice?

Does anyone have a problem with pressing 'back' but the same page reloads?
For example, when I web browse, if I press back once or twice, it simply reloads the current page. I end up having to spam the back button and it'll go back 2+ pages which gets frustrating.
Anyone know a fix to this?

Probably your ad blocker. Some pages will resend new ads constantly, urbanspoon comes to mind.
