I had this issue using Purity ROM, the same thing happens on the login page using ES file explorer. The only way around it was to use the Dropbox App. Been using Xenon and Carbon ROM recently and it works on both.

Weird worked on Chrome browser Thanks

This is a bug in Chrome, on a certain site I went on I could not scroll at all until I refresh and then at a certain time on that same website it happens again.

it worked for me on the mobile site, the desktop site wouldnt let me press log in.

Doesn't work for me either, tried AOSP browser and Dolphin. Haven't tried using a different keyboard yet.

Help with getting flash to work....apk file

I searched the forum about getting Flash to work on the Nexus 10 and the thread said to go to the Nexus 7 forums and do it with the steps over there....which I think I did.
I downloaded three.apk fikes and put them on my tablet.....an Adobe Flash .apk file that ends in 152, a "Hulafied" .apk file, and a Adobe Air .apk file. I tapped the files individually and it appeared they installed properly....or at least they went through the motions of a proper install.
But when I go to some sites, I am still getting that lego looking icon which I assume are flash animations/movies.
Am I downloading the wrong files?
You just need the flash app and a browser that supports the flash plugin. You also need to enable plugin loading for that browser. Boat supports it as does the AOSP browser. Chrome does not.

I have the Boat Browser and when I look in my apps, I have the little Flash player icon. I'm still getting the little lego icon though on some sites.
You have to enable it in boat. Go to the settings in boat and then page content settings and enable flash. Exit and exit boat. Start it again and test your web page.

Do you have a link to the .apk file you use? Maybe I need to uninstall and try a different .apk file?

Why does android browser refresh the page every millisecond?

I have android browser (aosp) installed on the N4. Google is my home page and when I tap the browser, Google comes up and starts refreshing the page every millisecond. It just started happening when I upgraded to 4.2.1. I'm rooted, stock, installed apk to /system/app, and changed permissions.

So you're saying the page refreshes a thousand times a second?

I'm having the same exact issue on my htc amaze. It started happening when I flashed a cm10 ROM. I decided to go back to ICS and did a full wipe but my browser has been reloading ever since. I'm thinking something didn't get wiped from jellybean when I went back to ICS that is causing the browser to misbehave.

[OT] Why don't phone internet browsers work on XDA anymore??

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.
Sent from my GT-N5110 using Tapatalk 4
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.

AOSP browser
Fastest browser I've ever used.
Smoothest browser I've ever used.
Fash works flawlessly with it.
Quick controls ftw.
Havent had a FC yet. (Reliable)
The only issue I've ever had with AOSP is on some forums it weirds out and wont let you add attachments and the word selector acts trippy. But other than that AOSP is flawless.
Edit: Also just to add the interface is very lite and simple which is a plus for me.

Are you having issues with it freezing? I sometimes have to FC it, and then it works fine.
I use firefox because of the bookmark sync issue with chrome.

No, not as of yet. There was a bug back on 4.2.2 that caused fc when fullscreen was activated but I havent had that issue in 4.3
Chrome Beta or Naked Browser.
Chrome because it syncs with all my other PCs that use Chrome and Naked Browser cause it is simply the fastest browser I have used.Not much on looks, just pure speed.
Internet browser is a tad faster but I prefer the latest version of Chrome version 30.0.1599.92 since it does a better job of correctly displaying some sites that the Internet browser has issues with and is also very smooth and stable now.
I use chrome and also I use android browser from the playstore. Its basically the browser we had on the note 2 which was great. The stock browser on the note 3 doesn't sign in with Google anymore. I'd highly recommend checking it out. Just search android browser in the play store.

I have always used and will likely continue to use Firefox for Android, as I have been a Firefox user for more than half a decade.
What are the differences between the 4.3 stock browser and the KK one?

Using Dolphin since it can work with the hacked Flash apk.
Anyone know if any apps have working text reflow AND sync with desktop chrome or google? Flash would be a bonus but at this point I am really not happy with googles decision to kill text reflow.

Agreed, I'm going back to 4.3. I cannot have a phone without a broswer that doesn't suck!

I use dolphin for most non flash sites. The hacked flash worked for one or two page loads, then kaput. I uninstalled it then went back to a different flash apk with firefox. Together they work, but sputter.
Why can't the 4.3.1 brower work on NC2 or NC4?
