Insufficient information.
What page? The page you're loading makes a HUGE difference. There are pages which even on a fast link can take 20+ seconds to load.

Unfortunately, the network troubleshooting tools you need prob require root. I would say try a tracert to a website giving you alleged trouble. If the response is within an adequate range, start looking at any browser plugins you may be running if applicable. So many variables with this, and as was mentioned, some pages just render slow.

Try another browser like Dolphin. You could also try to clear the cache in browser settings, wipe history, passwords etc.

Not the best of advice to give to someone who might not be an expert. ICS ROM images at this point are still experimental, with their share of known issues.

Unless you use your tablet to take pics or as a GPS device, it works great as a daily device.

Desktop versions of websites not loading

No matter which browser I use, desktop versions of websites will NOT load. The only one I found semi-able to load was Merian, but only in iPad mode.
Any thoughts?

Please start by saying what browser are you using and if you are connected to Wifi or regular data signal. Thanks.
Also...are you trying the different user agents through the browser's settings menu?

The problem actually fixed itself... very weird.

browser issues?

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.

Opera Mobile Web Browser doesn't run in background

As opposed to before, I can definitely let it sit while doing other things like playing a game or reading something in pulse etc., now,whenever zip 'minimize' the opera browser, and come back to it, it needs to restart itself all over again, that I would have to load the pages manually again. Of course if I'm downloading something, it gets interrupted and ill have to download it all over again. I dunno if its because of a recent update or whatnot, I've just noticed it now. Do you know if there's a fix?

(T_T): HUHUHUHU! It seems that I'm the only one experiencing this... Can someone help me???
It's all about how gingerbread is handling your memory usage and if it feels the need to close an app to free up ram. It's probably happening a lot more now because you have more apps installed then before and some of those run in memory from boot. Opera can be a beast when it comes to eating ram especially with multiple tabs. So you can look into that

I've noticed it happening a lot lately too and seen others complaining also. I found Lookout was using more than it's fair share of RAM so I uninstalled that but haven't had a good chance to try it out yet. I usually access Opera either via an icon on the desktop, or by long-holding the home button. Maybe I'm trippin' but the problem seems to happen a lot less when I use the home button method.
I have noticed this as well. Especially when downloading stuff. Definitely a fix is needed. This makes it 'almost' a full fledged browser. Too late in the game for that Opera!

Download Unsuccessful????

When i go to download a file from the browser, it downloads to 99% then says 'Download Unsuccessful'. It happens everytime and it is really annoying because i have to download it off my computer and then transfer it to my phone. I'm running CM10 nightlies with Air Kernel #201. Any help would be appreciated! :laugh:

Try turning off wifi sleep? If you're connected to wifi and this is off then when the screen cuts off it kills your wifi connection.
Don't quote me on this.
Either clear data on your download manager or uninstall chrome (it's been known to cause problems) and/or switch to an alternative browser

i haven't problem with chrome :laugh::laugh:
clear cache of your download manager, maybe resolve it
What browser are you using? I usually have this issue with the stock browser, but using dolphin or opera mini generally works better for me. I've also used the app "easy downloader pro" from the play store, it will let me resume a download that didn't compete the first time...

It's been happening to me lately on CNA 3.5 with the stock browser.
Every time I clear the data in my Download Manager things start working again.
Eventually it starts to mess up again though. >_>
Mine does it on 3g with stock browser. Sometimes I have to click retry like 20 times before it gets it. And for me it works best when nothing else is running.
And Im also on cm10 and air kernel, but I've had that problem with every ROM and kernel I've used.
Like the other guy said, try a different browser, dolphin is nice

Out of a matter of interest is it doing it in all websites or just the XDA forums website? Mine is doing it in the XDA forums. Refreshes constantly unless I'm in landscape mode. Something to do with Auto resizing webpages to suit different resolutions I think.
