Wikipedia on Chrome and Browser Problem - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone.
I have been looking for a solution to this problem for ages without finding a solution.
The problem is that when you go to chrome or browser in Quarx CM9, then go to a wikipedia page, it goes to a meta site saying the wiki is unavailable etc. When you click browse in desktop mode, it goes to a broken page, which is still readable, but I wish it wouldnt do this, as I use wikipedia frequently.
Hopefully we can find a solution!
Thanks!:laugh:

Use opera...i dont have any issues with it. Stock browser and chrome seem to have certain issues still persisting.

FIXED BY 5.0.1- Did the Dolphin update break your browsing experience on Iconia Tab?

UPDATED: Release 5.0.1 fixed the problem. Back to being my favorite browser!
If the update to version 5 of Dolphin HD refuses to load pages or won't load them at all on your A500, please go to our blog and comment with specifics so we can refer them to Dolphin in the next day or two.
I had the same problems with the beta version and uninstalled it immedietly. We want to keep this A500 specific, but are interested to know if other devices are having the same issues.
Please comment here:

We are not doing this to make money, so don't click any ad links while on our site unless you see something you just have to click on. (We only make a penny per click anyway).
Let's make sure Dolphin pays attention to this quickly.

works fine for me. i just dont like using it because it doesnt seem to be able to download any file over 1mb. it just saves the html if its over. so im using opera. seems to be a better browser anyway.

Agree i too using Opera Mobile since it can download anything.
Only negative is no Flash in Opera yet.
It's because that Google hasn't open the Android 3.0 source code.
but it seems that Opera Mobile support HTML5.
Yeah, the update gave me problems, it is sporadic and hard to track down. When it occurs the pages fail to load properly, and I have to force the program stopped (application manager or task manager) to restore it to a functional state.
But, when it is working, it is a very nice update...
Same for me...I tried the Dolphin beta and had all sorts of issues where the pages wouldn't load any more. I uninstalled it and went back to the stock browser, which is working pretty well since the update. The previous Dolphin HD version was awesome.
Yesterday I installed the newest released version of Dolphin HD and am sharing it's use with the stock browser. It seems to be working okay, but I haven't done much surfing in the last day or so.
Update
Go the Dolphin home page and under the goole search bar you will see "page loading disturbing you now?". It appears this issue may have been addressed with a new beta. It has worked for me but I have only been using it for a short while.

Solved it for me. I was having problems with both my HTC Evo 4G and my Acer A500 with v5.0.0.

Problems with web browser

Not sure if it just me... Since the Touchwiz update I semi to get lots of glitches when browsing web pages... Strangely the problems happen both in stock browser and dolphin hd
1 - often get message that there is a problem with certificate and tipically then if it is a purchase or something following a login then it gets stuck on the page
2 - stalls on random pages... Click on a link and page don't open
3 - can enter information in forms but just some fields...
4 - often can't open hotmail
5 - lots of little issues in facebook.
Etc. Small things but irritating as i had to pull out my pc to complete operations... Even stranger as my android phone never had these kind of issues...
Anybody else with these issues?
Any tips?
the browser crashes when clicking on pull down menu!
I had alot of problems as well including syncing bookmarks. Going into applications and clearing defaults and data seemed to reset the browser for me and haven't had any issue since.

Did anyone notice that if you download a file it shortens the name?
For example when downloading pershoot's kernels this "boot-cm_2636.4_ux-oc-xtra-vfpv3-d16_fp-080911.zip" becomes "boot-cm_2636.zip". Might not see like an issue but if you are downloading the ux version and the non ux there is no way to tell which is which unless you remember which one you download first because the second one will be named "boot-cm_2636-1.zip"

My experience with Xoom stock browser.
I had most of these problems on 3.0.1. With 3.1 update things got better, but still had some problems. I haven't had any problems on 3.2. I set flash On demand, this also helped a little. These seem to be general problems with HC stock browser.
Thanks - at least looks like it might get better as they push out updates to HC - mind you probably Samsung is not going to be in any hurry to do update....
I'd say these issues are not normal, so it's worth trying various things to fix them - I'd start with the already-mentioned clearing of app data, then perhaps a factory reset.
My browsing experience with the 'new' browser that came bundled with the TW update has been nothing but a spectacular improvement. Having flash on-demand and an ad blocking hosts file may also help.
Maybe not relevant, but I read elsewhere that Dolphin is just a front end or skin over the stock browser framework. If true, that might explain why you have the same problem in both. Maybe try Opera and see if it does the same thing?

New browser is incredibly fast and reliable.
Clear your browser's app data in Manage Applications.

browser crashes randomly

Sometimes I'll be in the browser on a website and the browser will randomly shut down and take me to my homepage. No message pops up saying something went wrong though. I just got my tablet yesterday and already this has happened 7-10 times. Does this happen to other people or am I the only one? Is there anything I can do to fix it?
I have the A501, but my browser has done the same thing a few times. It only seemed to happen when i had a really bad connection though. Don't know if that had any factor in it. Usually its fine though
same here
I think its coding on the website.this happened far less with the new dolphin browser but I like stock browser better.
Giggles are for blonde chics back off there mine
No guarantee that this will work for you, but you could give it a shot.
It very well could be coding on the page as was suggested earlier. Especially if it always happens on a particular site.
For your applications that are force closing or are acting buggy, try this procedure to see if it may correct the behaviors:
Go to Settings >> Applications >> Manage applications >> All tab, select the application that is giving you problems, and press the Force stop button if the application is still running and then to wipe the data press the Clear data and Clear cache buttons as well.
NOTE: THIS WILL RESET THE APPLICATION AND ERASE ANY APPLICATION STORED DATA UNLESS ITS SAVED TO MEMORY.
If this does not correct the issues, then try uninstalling and then reinstall the application.

Yup
It happens to me from time to time, usually when I'm looking around on failblog for some reason. I just go to my history so I can easily go back to the last page I was looking at.
Stock 3.1, latest update.
Its an old and known problem. Unfortunatly 3.1 didn't solve it. Switching off Java does but thats not a satisfieing solution.
Browser keeps shutting down
I'm having the same issue right now and can't seem to use the browser for more than 2 mins its really getting on my nerve. How can I view video when the JavaScript is turned off? For once, why can't this device not have faults regarding basic functions?

It seems that a good question here would also be, "What browsers are you all using? And have they all shown the same behavior?"
I have the default Chrome, then I also have Firefox and Dolphin. I know there are others as well.
my tab had this issue as well. i notice that when adblocker is running it doesnt happen near as often. i suspect pop up ads are responsible. your experience with failblog makes me more sure.
Hmmm..... I don't ever have that problem with the Dolphin HD browser.
This happens a least once a day for me. But it happens randomly, on any page. Even if i just try and open the browser to the home page it'll occasionally close on its own.

Search this forum issue.

Does anyone else see this, in this forum, pressing search, the keyboard pops up but goes off, the only way to search is using the advanced function.
seen this happen on other forums with the stock browser. i just use skyfire or firefox as both seem to work well with the issue.

I might try fire fox for a hoot, but the issue isn't a deal braker for me, since the advance search works fine.

&nbsp all over browser text

Hey, I just recently bought an hd2 and I flashed cm9 nexus from on here and so far its been absolutely great, but all of a sudden I noticed this "&nbsp" popping up all over the browser and it will cover up text, or be written over links pictures everything. Anyone else have this problem or know what may be causing it?
Just to update... I just saw another one and it read.... &laquo... its like I'm seeing artifacts of the browsers code

Try to update the browser, or download another( there are a lot of better ones out there). It did the trick for me.
If that didn't solve it, maybe the web page was the problem... Do you see it on every page?
