When I'm on a website (or any forum app like this one) why does the scrolling speed lag by a half second? Nexus 4 is my first android and I love it, but I'm coming from using iPhones for the last 4 years where there was no lag at all.

tapatalk? havent tried it yet because it looks so bad. but i heard people are getting decent results with the aosp browser. at some point i have accepted that android has ****ty browsers, though. i hate them all and i havent seen a single one that was satisfactory. scrolling isnt so bad, editing it.

Is it just me or has the page rendering on XDA gone bonkers when viewing from the Tablet?
I changed over to the rather ugly XDA Classic theme that fixes the rendering issue but what's the deal with page rendering on the XDA 2010 theme when viewing from the Tab?
Did something change in the css as I am getting this issue on ALL custom ROMS..
+1... they break something after "maintenance "
Man, am I glad I saw this thread. Thought I was going nuts!
Yeah thanks for starting the thread. I was just about to spend who knows how much time trying to figure out which app was killing all my memory.
It's being 2 days now and the bug in XDA web is still there... it makes hard to read site on a tablets (I've tried Dolphin HD and standard Android browser).

Why not just use the XDA HD app frm the Market for your XDA needs instead of viewing directly from the Browser?

I think you quoted the wrong person. Of course that's what I do, but trying it for the others having problems using the browsers and everything is fine. No issues like they're having in both browsers they mentioned and a couple others everything is fine...
I don't like xda app and yes they fixed CSS... so all good now.
[for non-rooted only]
it seems like alot of people have problems with chrome being slow and causing reboots, etc.
what other browsers are better? i heard chrome beta is good?

Pretty much anything that's not Chrome. I've always used AOSP on the N10, but I've used Dolphin and One Browser on my Photon. My Photon is also on Gingerbread though, so YMMV.

as a matter of fact you can use the AOSP browser without root, take a look at here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2385933
I have been using it and it's way better than chrome at least in my N10, it seems to work better in my N4

Same here and never like Firefox on my mobile devices before but seems much better on my nexus 10...
I've read where you can get flash to work with it also but so far no luck here getting it to work, after flash installs it never shows up as a add on? I haven't rooted my N10 and honestly not sure I'm going to...

Is the aosp browser better than anything else out these ATM?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
It's better than Chrome for sure.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
I've used the aosp browser for a long time and loved the flash support, but after the 4.3 update to my N7, flash no longer works. I had to switch to Firefox Beta for flash now.
I've never had the problems (slow) with Chrome that others seem to have. But I also use AOSP and Boat Browser. I don't find any of them to be particularly faster or slower than the other

What about chrome beta? That's what I normally use.
Is what I heard true about aosp browser and the major security concerning passwords? Rootzwiki has an article saying that aosp saves your passwords in plain text and exposes them....
I noticed about 4 months ago, Chrome on my S3 didn't like XDA.... So I used Firefox with no issues.
Then I had a LG Optimus G Pro (for about 1 week) with same results, so I used Firefox.
On my HTC One, neither Chrome or Firefox works on XDA, only the stock browser worked.
Now on my S4, I've tried all three and none of them work?
The page will load....... I can log in, but every time I scroll, the page reloads, which basically makes it unusable now...... Anybody else run into this problem?
Perhaps they are trying to get everyone to Tapatalk. It's a very good app.

yup. Same issue here. I have about given up using my phone to browse XDA. I really dont want to buy an app just to browse an internet forum....
I found a free XDA app in the play store that'll work, you might give it a try?

I use the xda app its a really good app. I don't really like going on the site through mobile and having to make the page bigger it seems to be slower on webpages also.

I use the xda app most of the time but dont have any issues using firefox or the stock browser to view it either?
sent from my S3, S4 or Note2
I seem to have an issue an I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing a similar problem or knows a fix. Basically the stock browser keeps hanging while loading Web pages. It seems to wait a bit longer than normal before loading pages more often than not. It happens both on wifi an hsdpa. I've noticed chrome doesn't have the issue at al. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Yeah I see what your saying..

Same goes with my s4 guys. Blame samsung fir this. Also, how is the tab opening;switching time on note 3?
Sent from my GT-I9500 using xda app-developers app
Slightly off topic but how the heck do you do a rollover on a button? In any browser? I like the stock browser but I hate having to long press on a button then hit back on the soft key to get it to work! I'm no iFan but I do have to commend apple on getting that one thing right. Why does it take these android devs so long to figure this out lol.
I think the main issue is with android fragmentation, where as Apple only have their iDevices.. Gives them more control.
Op I get my note 3 later, will test it out and try a few solutions.. Hopefully there's a silly fix somewhere as I was planning on using stock browser as it's always performed well!! Have you tried dolphin? That's a quick snappy browser imo.

Played with he browser for the past half hour... Everything is fluid, fast, no delays... Smooth as butter. Very impressed!! Especially the new look for tab switching.
Are you still experiencing or has it sorted itself out?

Is there a way to save pages for offline reading? This feature was in Note 2's stock browser.
Also, is there a way to sync desktop browser bookmarks like on Chrome? Thx.

I've been playing with the stock browser for the last day or so since getting this phone. Super smooth and fast. No hiccups or laggy periods. And I also agree the new tab switching is nice compared to older versions I've used (I came from a note 1). The only gripe I have is that you can't seem to load new tabs in background. Now, every time I open a new tab, it loads upon top. Irritating, although I'll have to get used to it.

What about kinetic scrolling? Is it as responsive as note 2? Also I am experiencing this annoying issue when I click on a picture on facebook mobile website it is displayed in very small size. Chrome does not have this issue neither does the stock browser on note 2

Also something that anoyes me a lot in the note 3 is the auto fit pages.. It seems to have disappeared even in chrome. Really a bummer .. With this gorgeous screen you are left out with pages that you have to slide from side to side to be able to read a zoomed page :banghead:

Step away from the Stock Browser would be my suggestion. Ive been using Chrome and havent had any issues. There are other browsers that have been tested and proved great performance
