[Q] Browser Force-closing in Multiple ROMs - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The stock browser activity is force closing for me, not just in one ROM but in two that I've tried (I've wiped the device/cache/Dalvik completely clean between each install). Currently, I'm using JellyBeer 4.14. I first encountered it when trying to do Browser Signin for a Google account (I use two-factor authentication).
Could anyone help me figure out what's going on? I've noticed that at least when using the Browser, if I disable JavaScript and plugins and access to my location, I can navigate the web for a little bit.
Attached are logs from a Browser Signin attempt and from a normal browser attempt.

Bookmarks FC

Can anyone tell me where bookmarks are stored? No matter what setup I use (ota2.2 is only one I haven't tried) after a few days running good my bookmarks force close. In any browser our app that accesses them. Have tried using fix permissions in rom manager. Tried restoring a backup of all apps except stock browser (don't want constant sync iconand not sure if it will do that). have erased and formatted and reinstalled everything from scratch. Formatted sd card. I'd I install a new browser say dolphin bookmarks will work for a day or so then do the same thing. Any advice is appreciated

Well I think my problem is one of my bookmarks itself. I downloaded an app called "bookmarkymark" and after my bookmarks started crashing apps I started this app which showed me all my bookmarks and allowed me to delete them (thats all this app does. delete bookmarks). I started deleting bookmarks one by one and tried to launch my bookmarks until i finally could. When I figured out which site it was I now waited a day and was having no problems. I put that one site back as a bookmark and within an hour of playing with the web and going from bookmark to bookmark it crashed again. I removed it again and it everything works fine.
So Here is my new question. The site in question is a site i created for my family to keep in touch using the cms Drupal. Any ideas why bookmarking this site would somehow crash my browser when i try to view my bookmarks? Has anyone heard of a site bookmark doing this before?

FaceBook connection problem!!!

I try to use browser to view facebook but it show connection error,so can`t play FaceBook games. it's that any fix?
In the address bar type about:debug and then go to settings>debug and change uastrings to desktop then type about:debug to get out of debug again
You can do what he said, but I found that I would often go back to android mode. So I have switched to dolphin browser HD and set it to desktop mode as default and have a gesture set up if I want to use mobile mode. Much easier and no problems with Facebook or other sites yet.

I had this issue. Only started after installing the facebook app. I uninstalled the app and clear cache and changed uastring to desktop and it works pretty good. Only issue is after several hours of the tablet being idle and the tab open I see the issue pop up. I close the tab and launch a new one and I am good to go.
thank you for reply
im having serious facebook issues on my tablet too!
the facebook app never worked for me properly (couldnt see the feed screen) so i uninstalled it. I also tried connecting my facebook in Pulse Newsreader but that also didnt work either. Only way I could get it working was via the built in social jogger app which actually has quite a nice interface but is somewhat limited.
Also last night I tried browsing facebook via the default browser and it loaded the first time and then stopped loading after clicking a 'see all comments' link.
anyone know the cause?

Links open in browser not apps =(

Okay, so i decided to install KG5 last night and root. Everything works perfect but today i notice that apps dont open when i click on a facebook link or youtube link. Instead they open in the Internet Browser on the mobile sites. I have cleared defaults of the browser, youtube, facebook but it did nothing besides ask me for my login info again. What should i do? Is it a bug with KG5? I have factory reset and same thing occurs. So how to i get it to prompt me with a message asking me which app i wanna view with?
Okay well i fixed the problem with youtube (i clear defaults through Titanium Backup instead of default android app manager). I still have issues with facebook

com.google.process.gapps force closing in 3.2 KMN

Anyone else besides me getting this? I had no idea what was causing it at first, but it seems that within 5-10 minutes of using the Tab regularly, the force close prompt would come up. I'd hit close, however, none of the apps I was currently in at the time would close. Every 2-3 minutes, like clockwork, the prompt would show up again. Got very annoying.
From the suggestion of another member, I took down my G-Mail widget and rebooted. Used the Tab like normal, still force closing. I then realized it COULD be the stock browser. I downloaded Dolphin for Tab Beta and used that...no force closes (yet). I have a suspicion that it could be the browser.
Is this happening with anyone else? I'm on stock KMM with the KMN CSC, odexed, with root and CWM. No other OS changes/alterations have been made. I even wiped the device completely, including my storage partition, re-downloaded and re-flashed, and it was still occurring with stock browser use.
Uncheck sync bookmarks with Chrome. Used to have the same issue and it drove me nuts.
I had this issue with syncing bookmarks. Fixed it by going to the Google Dashboard (sorry don't have the URL) and clearing the data section under Chrome. No issues since then.

Well this is getting out of hand for me. I started noticing this after the 3.2 update, but now it's getting crazy. I wasn't able to uncheck the sync in the Android browser options, I had to clear the data and then simply not sync it, but I think its still trying to sync. I did go to the dashboard and clear the data there as well per the suggestion in this thread. I am un-rooted running stock 3.2 update. I can see in the error report that it crashing on trying to sync bookmarks. What a pain!

Try creating a new gmail account (you don't actually have to use it for anything) and sync the bookmarks to that instead.
Sounds like a good idea to troubleshoot this issue. Thanks!

You have to go to accounts and sync, your Google account, and uncheck bookmarks from there. That's what stops the bookmark sync. You can't uncheck in browser and clearing data from the browser is unrelated.

Chrome bookmarks are not displaying desktop bookmarks

Can't seem to figure this out. For some reason Chrome on my N6P does not show my desktop bookmarks. Actually, it only shows just the bookmarks on this phone.
- desktop is signed on
- settings->accounts->google->chrome is set to sync
- did a force close and also rebooted
Anyone else having this issue or can clue me in on how to see bookmarks on my other signed in Chrome devices?
Thanks
I currently have this issue with my new N6p.
I can't get the bookmark sync .
I try to wipe cache of the apps but not working.
In chrome it tells me that he can't reach the sync server.
