Links open in browser not apps =( - Galaxy S II General

Okay, so i decided to install KG5 last night and root. Everything works perfect but today i notice that apps dont open when i click on a facebook link or youtube link. Instead they open in the Internet Browser on the mobile sites. I have cleared defaults of the browser, youtube, facebook but it did nothing besides ask me for my login info again. What should i do? Is it a bug with KG5? I have factory reset and same thing occurs. So how to i get it to prompt me with a message asking me which app i wanna view with?
Okay well i fixed the problem with youtube (i clear defaults through Titanium Backup instead of default android app manager). I still have issues with facebook

SPB Mobile Shell Facebook Widget

I am having problems logging in using the widget that comes with mobile shell 3.5. When I click the widget it opens up my web browser - I sign in no problems then it tells me to close the window. When I do this and go back to my home page the widget is still not logged in. I have to repeat the process again.
Any help would be appreciated.
Same issue here. have to resort to just setting up a link to facebook within opera

HTTPS pages problem.

Since yesterday, I'm having a problem over 3G.
The default browser when I try to access any https page:
Data connectivity problem
A secure connection could not be established.
.. Weird thing, happens with everything, web banking, google account login, google buz, etc
Isn't the provider, because opera can access any of them, and I could live with opera, but also a couple of applications like 'soundhound' I think they use https also, because won't work , but If I go by wi-fi, everything comes back to normal.
Someone told me about cleaning APNs, did, but the same result.
Using rooted 026 version, everything fine from months ago, but yesterday started with this weird problem
I have a similar problem. In the default browser, when I try to log in to my online banking account (Westpac), instead of displaying the page like normal it downloads it and I have to open it from the downloads. It's weird and I cant actually click anything on the downloaded page. But in Opera it works fine, so does anyone know if there's a fix and how?

exactly, opera mini works fine, but the problem isn't only about using Opera, it's that another 3 applications seems to use https
gtalk
gmail
buzz
and I can't post buzz with the widget, not use gmail app, not even gtalk.
soundhound also works only on wi-fi.
I can play some games without wi-fi, just 3G, access most pages.
The only problem seems to be https on 3G.
Already read a lot of workrounds on other devices, but seems isn't related to my problem.

Bookmarks FC

Can anyone tell me where bookmarks are stored? No matter what setup I use (ota2.2 is only one I haven't tried) after a few days running good my bookmarks force close. In any browser our app that accesses them. Have tried using fix permissions in rom manager. Tried restoring a backup of all apps except stock browser (don't want constant sync iconand not sure if it will do that). have erased and formatted and reinstalled everything from scratch. Formatted sd card. I'd I install a new browser say dolphin bookmarks will work for a day or so then do the same thing. Any advice is appreciated

Well I think my problem is one of my bookmarks itself. I downloaded an app called "bookmarkymark" and after my bookmarks started crashing apps I started this app which showed me all my bookmarks and allowed me to delete them (thats all this app does. delete bookmarks). I started deleting bookmarks one by one and tried to launch my bookmarks until i finally could. When I figured out which site it was I now waited a day and was having no problems. I put that one site back as a bookmark and within an hour of playing with the web and going from bookmark to bookmark it crashed again. I removed it again and it everything works fine.
So Here is my new question. The site in question is a site i created for my family to keep in touch using the cms Drupal. Any ideas why bookmarking this site would somehow crash my browser when i try to view my bookmarks? Has anyone heard of a site bookmark doing this before?

FaceBook connection problem!!!

I try to use browser to view facebook but it show connection error,so can`t play FaceBook games. it's that any fix?
In the address bar type about:debug and then go to settings>debug and change uastrings to desktop then type about:debug to get out of debug again
You can do what he said, but I found that I would often go back to android mode. So I have switched to dolphin browser HD and set it to desktop mode as default and have a gesture set up if I want to use mobile mode. Much easier and no problems with Facebook or other sites yet.

I had this issue. Only started after installing the facebook app. I uninstalled the app and clear cache and changed uastring to desktop and it works pretty good. Only issue is after several hours of the tablet being idle and the tab open I see the issue pop up. I close the tab and launch a new one and I am good to go.
thank you for reply
im having serious facebook issues on my tablet too!
the facebook app never worked for me properly (couldnt see the feed screen) so i uninstalled it. I also tried connecting my facebook in Pulse Newsreader but that also didnt work either. Only way I could get it working was via the built in social jogger app which actually has quite a nice interface but is somewhat limited.
Also last night I tried browsing facebook via the default browser and it loaded the first time and then stopped loading after clicking a 'see all comments' link.
anyone know the cause?

Facebook Android application. An error occurred while loading this page

"An error occurred while loading the page" keeps showing up on most pages in the facebook app
First time after installing the app it works alright but that's about it.
All i get are blank pages and this error
It's been a month already.
This has rendered my facebook app completely useless.
Even now wit the 1.7.2 update released today, it's still the same.
I emailed facebook support 2 weeks ago with no answer.
Data and cache cleared many time
Uninstalled, restarted, installed many times
No progress
I did not restore this app from any backup.
I downloaded and installed it from a full reset
SGS @ 2.3.4 XXJVR rooted
Anyone knows a (potential) solution to this, please feel free
i have the same problem, i just flash to xxjvt with juwe roms i can access my albums, checkin page, events, friends but not my profile and news feed
I don't have this problem but I recommend you to use facebook.com on browser, it is fast than facebook app and has nice UI. Now I uninstalled facebook app.
