Maybe it's just me or something I'm doing, but Swype beta (2.6?) basically isn't working on the Google using the stock browser. I've manager to successfully install Swype and I'm enjoying it very much, but this is a large problem.
Basically, when trying to Swype in a Google search, the text bar just won't respond. Swype itself seems to respond just fine - the suggestion bar even comes up. But no text appears in the bar.
It's anyone else experiencing this?
See the same thing, but I don't normally use the Silk browser. Normally Dolphin or Opera Mobile if not that.
So it works fine on those? Well that's definitely a young point for then. Time to get the market.

So far DL30 is working without any real issues. The only weird thing that I noticed is that Adobe Flash 10.1 stopped working. It worked when I tested it, but now the same site isn't working.
I tried...
Updating to the latest Flash via market place... no luck.
Renaming the install_flash_player.apk and installing from the market place... no luck
Most sites have a warning that flash is not installed. This is using the android browser.
If anyone has any suggestions it would be much appreciated.
EDIT: I should have stated that I wiped the data and cache. I also went from a stock DL09 rooted phone to the DL30 leak.
I just used Dophin HD to go to CNN and MSNBC, I was able to view the videos there with no problems. I remember I couldn't do that on 2.1.
All I did was to install Flash 10.1 from Market...
OK.... Newb status confirmed....
The flash player worked and then stopped. Some how the enable addons setting on the browser was turned to off. I enabled all. Sorry for the ridiculous question!
Tanks for the post...I had that same plugin thing disabled as well until I saw this thread. Now flash is up and running. Anyone know how to choose the resolution settings in youtube? (ex. 360p,720p,1080p)
It helped me to install from the marketplace. Seems to work great even with flash games on this 2.2 build.
Sorry, slightly off topic, but browser related. Anyone actually get the default search engine selection to work correctly? Neither of the two other choices - Google or Yahoo works.
Typing anything into the top URL / Search bar and then pressing the right arrow button to initiate the search always yields bing search results. Maybe I am missing the real function of the default search selection, but one would figure that's what that setting was for.
Everything else in DL30 has seemed to function perfectly.
Enable Plugins from the browser menu. You can set it to manual too so you don't have too much lag from videos starting.
Its working ... Enable plugins in your browser...
Flash Works
Yeah flash works perfectly. If i go to ESPN i can watch the videos on there perfectly and just click the fullscreen to see it good on my phone.

I get this sometimes. Don't know the solution. I am as interested as you to see if one shows up.
i get this every time I'd really like to know if there is a fix for it.
Are yall rooted with Tiamat? The problem occurred after rooting and flashing the kernal.
I have this issue, with all browsers, but only some of the time. I believe I know why, but don't have a solution. When launching the browsers from other apps like twitter, RSS readers, any other app really, sometimes in the multitasking menu the apps that you launched the browser from shows up instead of the browser itself.
I never seem to have this issue when I launch the browser by itself, it shows up in the multitasking menu just fine. Perhaps the launching app replaces the browser in the multitasking menu?
Not sure if others have noticed this or have any evidence to the contrary, might be intermittent, but it seems that every time I want to go back to the browser and its not in the multitasking menu I have launched the browser via another app like twitter or RSS reader.
This also happens sometimes with file managers launcher apps from files in the file system.
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?

Quits for me too. Even after clearing browser cache

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.
hi,
I came across a weird problem. I don't know if it happened after an app update or what, but when I try to open links in non browser apps, the browser never opens, the screen dims like its trying to open a new app, but it never does. I have to press back or home to get out of it. I tried checking all my apps to see if the wrong program had hyper links as an incorrect default but I found nothing. I use dolphin browser HD and I'm using the Prime ROM. Any help is appreciated, thanks.
Fixed it. Reinstalled Dolphin and now it works.
Im at my wits end with this issue...
I'm getting a bit desperate here, and i cant find a solution anywhere else... i asked before, and it seemed the other people having this issue were using nova or at least some sort of non oem launcher, but some people with nova never saw the problem..
whenever i click on anything in an app... aka, a link in gmail to an ebay item...
what happens, is it opens chrome and displays the last thing i visited on chrome. sometimes if i hit back, it will go back to the ebay app it was supposed to open in and display what i was looking for. other times if i hit back, it goes back a page in chrome till i get to the home page, and then if i hit back again it finally closes chrome and it takes me to the ebay app and the results i want.
the same thing happens if i click on a link from search in the google app... if it is a link handled by an app, it will open with that app. if it is a misc link, it will open chrome showing the last thing i viewed in chrome, then i click back once or a few times(or switch back to the google app via recent apps), and boom... the link is open in the google app.
another example.. open a link in metal(my reddit app, but it also does it with bacon reader)... it opens chrome showing the last thing i viewed in chrome. if i back out of chrome, or go into recent apps and switch back to the reddit app.
it is absurdly annoying. this happened with my old lgv20, and it happens with my new one that i got as a warranty replacement. Idk what app or setting followed me over to the new phone and i have no idea how to fix it. anyone else have this problem?
the only time i can get the issue to go away is... if i clear google chrome defaults in the app manager.. and i have a 2nd browser installed, like firefox... and every time it asks to open a random link in chrome or firefox, if i select just once... the issue stays away. if i either uninstall firefox, or click chrome and set it as the default, the issue comes back.
thanks. Im honestly getting desperate as it is making phone use very very cumbersome, especially for switching back and forth between apps.
occasionally making sure chrome isnt in my recent apps will help, but not always.
anyone else here with experiencing the same?
