Good morning,
I am having some issues with the latest Dolphin Browser. It seems to be consuming too much battery and is crashing a lot, even when I am or haven't been using it. I get the message that it has crashed even when it hasn't been used. Additionally, it is consuming too much battery. It now is number 1 of my battery consumers by the end of the day and I don't use it that often. If I do it's fairly quickly. I am on CM10.1 and this started on the 2/5 nightly. It also happened on 2/8 and the one I am currenlty on, M1.
Anyone else having this issue? Can I solve this?
Thanks
I've had issues with Dolphin ever since 9.1 came out. I've essentially switched to Boat now because Dolphin has become way too unstable, especially with jetpack installed. And jetpack is really a necessary add in for dolphin to work right. After using Boat, I actually prefer it now after being a long time dolphin user. Try it out

When switching to bookmarks in browser it can be normal but many times I have a good lag. I wonder if others have ran into this also. I have used both task managers and wipe/reflash and these have just proved to be a temporary fix. everything else on the nexus flys.
Yeah mine does it sometimes.
It happens, usually why my cache is full and I accidentally got like 6 tabs or more open. ..lol
oh yeah, I get that lag as well. it doesn't happen all the time. but when it does happen it can take more than 5 seconds or much longer to open up bookmarks. must be a bug.
got the same lag here, running CM 5.06
I've had it since day 1, across every vanilla rom I've used. Hopefully it gets fixed in the next update. It only happens in thumbnail mode, not list mode.
Dear all,
I had updated my eee pad 36 hrs ago.
And I found some issues after operating.
1.
Music player builded in can't go next song automatically after screen off (battery mode).
2.
The audio may be broken when using headphone sometime.
3.
After rotating pad 180 degree, the desktop fresh rate might be slower.
Also some system animation.
I known some ones' gmail widget is gone, but I did not.
So I don't list this issue on this post.
Here are the issues I found:
1. Browser sluggish when scrolling. If there are images the page redraws when scrolled showing black spaces. Also using the dock, scrolling or navigating in a webpage is a pain, it keeps skipping or jumping to the top.
2. Flash seems to have stopped working in Dolphin browser, I tried watching some videos on gametrailers.com, and only audio plays, video is a slideshow. It works fine on stock browser though.
3. Frequent FCs in Launcher Pro, didnt have any prior to the update.
No g mail widget
Lots of lag going from portrait to landscape
Lag on home screens
sent from my LEE Pad Transformer........I wish
Forgot to mention, battery life that was amazing prior to the update is now plain bad. From a full charge at 8PM CST, it is now sitting in idle at 60% with no charge coming from the dock, so possibly the dock charge is drained out. I probably used it for 30mins playing Plants vs Zombies HD.

Yes I feel the same. Battery life seems to have degraded

Having the same issue myself, seems to be worse off now with 3.1 installed.
I'm having some bothersome little issues as well, and so I'm going to do a factory reset on mine today. If the issues are still there afterward, I'll report them here. I'll also report if a factory reset helps anything.

I just used gametrailers and HD videos (twisted metal is what I tried) worked great. Not only did the video and audio match, they both played smoothly. I know that doesnt help but, it may just be yours.. or your connection.
I had delivered these issues to my friend who is in Asus.
Hope this can help us to get better operations in 3.1.
As said in another thread, i have problems with betterylife too. Battery life was great, but now...
And it looks like stockbrowser is sometimes faster and better, but then at once it is very slow and laggy.

ok let me try that again then. If I could skip the stock browser altogether, some of my frustrations will be alleviated.
Should I skip this update until it is worked out? If so how without root? And if I do install it do you think a factory reset before would help some of these problems?
I also doing a factory reset now.
Maybe some problems will go with wind, I wish ...
Just updated and have none of the mentioned issues. Can't comment on battery life quite yet.
My issue is not the battery life... Mine is random reboots while docked to the keyboard dock... It happened three to four times yesterday and one time this morning. By the way, I'm using the leaked 3.1. I'm wondering if there are any differences with the official 3.1 update and the leaked one?
I have the leaked verison of 3.1 and the battery life sucks. Before I could ave about 10% for every hour now its down to 40 mins per 10%. I heard the guys over at the xoom forum are also not happy with the battery life on 3.1....I was hoping 3.1 would fix the lag on the browser but I guess not......the only thing they fix was the youtube app......pretty sad
WHOA...Official 3.1 and Mobile Sites ???
I swear since OTA 3.1 update, when I type a URL, eg, yahoo.com, or any URL, I get the mobile site version on my browser.
This was NOT the case with 3.0.1.
Is it just me ? Am I doing something wrong ?

You will probably have to set the User Agent String under the browser settings to desktop (again).

For info I was getting the mobile URL on lots of sites with 3.01 ......
In the stock browser, when you search via the address bar. It doesn't work search just takes you to google home page.
Howdy folks,
I've been running custom roms since I first got my iconia. Though I went thru a brief period of over clocking I am now running a stock-based rom.
Browser crashes every once in a while have almost become a fact of life but I am curious, are they also for you? How often do you experience one?
I am currently on FLEXREAPER RF1. In 3 hours I've crashed opera twice (once with flash) and the stock browser ounce.
In a typical day, perhaps 2-3x on stock browser is the norm for me.
I look forward to finding out if my iconia is messed up or if this is normal. Thanks for your input!

Define "crash". Getting Force Close errors? General Protection Fault? Or just the browser closes without warning?
I might get browser close a couple of times a day. No big deal. I get it on my pc also.
Browser crash ALOT for me usually becoming unresponsive while playing or using flash content.
Opera, stock, dolphin all the same.
chrome not so much but then again it doesnt play flash so i dont use so much.
Really annoys me alot to be honest not sure if its a ICS issue or not.
As for other crashes no not really just browser for me
Cheers
I used to have the browser close pretty frequently on me in gingerbread (stock os/stock browser). I have not noticed any since ics (also all stock)
Stock browser usually quits to homescreen suddenly. Sometimes it remember the site it was on sometimes not.
Opera crashed on particular site by exiting to home. It also froze up while playing episode on daily show website.
So far (haven't had it long) opera seems stable but a page here and there mess it up. Plus that flash issue. Will stick with it awhile longer to see if it does better on stability. What I mean is it's not random like stock.
Evelbug, how long do you use the tablet and how long have you been on stock? Been thinking of switching over to see if more stable.
Thanks!
Have only had RF1 on tab since yesterday but experienced quite a few browser crashes at least with stock browser, hangs for a second then just closes. No FC or other message.
XDA Premium app has been doing the same thing so not sure what's up with that.
I'm on flexreaver (12.5, I think), and haven't had trouble with the stock browser crashing. I get the occassional screen flicker and have to reset my wifi once in a while, but the browser seems well behaved.
quick update, in case anyone's browser shopping,
opera mobile all day today and no closes or crashes. a few sites it doesn't do well on, but I guess that's what the stock one will be for...
I have had it in the beginning (browser just closing) when I just install a rom but after a few days it is gone.
For the past couple of weeks I've noticed chrome has be home unusable due to horrible lag & regular force closes (wait/end/report)
This only affects my n7 (xoom & galaxy nexus are fine)
Now in this time chrome hasn't updated, and tonight realised the only thing I had changed is enabling Bluetooth for a keyboard I was testing last week.
Anyway as a test I disabled Bluetooth and since doing so the lag issues have gone away & no force closes or errors.
I can't believe this would cause such issues with Browser (Bluetooth enabled, but no active devices)
Would anyone else who is suffering n7 chrome lag issues let me know if you have Bluetooth enabled and if disabling Bluetooth fixes their lag issue?
Thanks
this happened to me. In fact, not just chrome, but every browser i tried would lag and get that same error dialog box OP had.
I bit the bullet and factory reset and everything is SMOOTH and fast. Granted, I haven't installed any games yet.
Try a factory reset
I have major chrome lags. Really bad at times. The aosp browser isn't as bad. It's loads pages by far faster. But then it'll have the occasional 2-3 second lag for a click once in a while. I'm looking for a browser with zero lag. Nothing else lags on this tablet which is what confuses me. Just the browser.
I had same problems and after turning plugins on demand everything seems to be ok.
Hi all,
Info:
Running PA 2.99
Faux Kernel
No overclocks/undervolts etc.
For a while now, and I'm not sure when it started, but from my memory, pretty much after PA 2.54?
Whilst browsing the internet, especially watching vids etc, my tablet completely crashes, like the processor is struggling! But, they arent just normal lock ups, my tab completely locks up, and goes nuts !!
Even having like 3/4/5 tabs open completely destroys my tab.
Usually, I have to fully power-down and back up, for it to work again.
It happens on various browsers, such as Chrome, Maxthon and Dolphin.
Any one else experiencing serious crashes?
Any one know what could be causing it?
Thanks,
Wilks3y.
Details would be helpful. Which versions of 2.99 and faux kernel, for instance. As out stands, your question is about as vague as walking into a doctor's office, proclaiming ‘I'm sick‘ and not saying much of anything specific.

Revert to pure stock for a while.
If you continue to experience similar symptoms using stock then hardware is possibly implicated.
If not, then it's software (kernel or ROM or kernel tuning parameters).
On pure stock I can crash the kernel (using Chrome beta on certain WebGL demos), but largely Stock seems pretty well behaved on my tablet.
