Out of a matter of interest is it doing it in all websites or just the XDA forums website? Mine is doing it in the XDA forums. Refreshes constantly unless I'm in landscape mode. Something to do with Auto resizing webpages to suit different resolutions I think.

No matter which browser I use, desktop versions of websites will NOT load. The only one I found semi-able to load was Merian, but only in iPad mode.
Any thoughts?

Please start by saying what browser are you using and if you are connected to Wifi or regular data signal. Thanks.
Also...are you trying the different user agents through the browser's settings menu?

Merian, Dolphin, Skyfire...
The problem actually fixed itself... very weird.
..
Does anyone else's browser force shut while trying to load random sites and close all your tabs? Mine happens quite frequently and has become rather annoying. Also for some rreason it forgot my pw an usernsme for xda and now it don't ask to save, anyone know how to reinitiate that prompt?
Mine occasionally closes as well. Also, my keyboard entry seems to lag like crazy!
WTF?
Trust me the lag on xda app isn't near as bad as it is on xoomforums.com. hoping a simple software update will fix this.

Thats a good point. I have experienced the odd crash of the browser and frankly the ONLY site I have issues browsing is this site (xda). When the site loads the performance of the browser drops off considerably. If I have additional tabs open (to other sites) the browser will fall over. I wonder what it is about this site (especially scrolling the main page) chokes the browser so much. Again, any other site or combo of sites that I normally troll all work fine, fast, stable.

Try and use a different browser. I'm using firefox and I'm not having any issues at all. To reinitiate setting for browser go to settings applications browser clear cache and set to defaults will get it.

I love mozilla anyway
my browser closes all the ttime. Seems to have picked up lately as well. Almost every time I switch tasks the browser crashes and loses all my open tabs
At first, this wasn't really a problem...over that past day or so, it's crashed several time. Last night I was purposely opening up 3-4 normal tabs (cnn, google, facebook, hopstop). It crashed at least 10 times in about 20-25 mins.
This is getting very annoying. I know can use another browser, but come on, I should be able to use the stock browser.
bump. anyone else have this issue? my browser has crashed on me about 10 times today...and of course had to crash as i was demonstrating the device to some apple fanboys and talking about how much cooler it is
I've had maybe one or two crashes since I've had it, but none in the last two days.
i am having some issues with pages not loading properly and where pdf / imagr download that the page does not a sign the file extension to do not load where they did on I pad. I am confident google will fix soon tho.
Ok, so I do the about:debug thing on my Xoom because I like to view my sites in desktop view, but everytime I restart I have to do it all over again. Is there anyway to fix this other then rooting my Xoom?
There is a way but only works on the 3G. It's on the development forum.

I did it once and it has stayed as desktop. My Xoom is turned off quite often.
That sucks bc i have the wifi only model(not a big fan of Verizon) and it always comes undone for me.

Same here. Does not stick on reboot.
set it as your homepage and each time you want to re enable it all you have to do is click the url bar and enter

Mine is the WiFi only.
Just use Dolphin Mini & set user agent as desktop and you're done for good.Plus it works 100 times better than the stock browser.

Stock browser
Unrooted
Wifi
Once connected, speedtest shows 6mb/s download speed
I uninstalled a.lot of apps in search of conflicts
But loading a page takes 10-15 seconds
Please help
Need more info. What model? If wifi, does it happen on multiple networks?

3G is not activated. Running straight Wifi. Yes, on multiple networks

Insufficient information.
What page? The page you're loading makes a HUGE difference. There are pages which even on a fast link can take 20+ seconds to load.
Unfortunately, the network troubleshooting tools you need prob require root. I would say try a tracert to a website giving you alleged trouble. If the response is within an adequate range, start looking at any browser plugins you may be running if applicable. So many variables with this, and as was mentioned, some pages just render slow.

Try another browser like Dolphin. You could also try to clear the cache in browser settings, wipe history, passwords etc.

Not the best of advice to give to someone who might not be an expert. ICS ROM images at this point are still experimental, with their share of known issues.
Unless you use your tablet to take pics or as a GPS device, it works great as a daily device.
After my 4.3 update, chrome browser is auto refreshing on the xda pages like every couple seconds.
Anyone else seeing this?
Fix?
Don't have a fix for you but noticed that Firefox on my PC did the same when I had scriptblocker set too strict. Xda kept refreshing when it couldn't get to things like Google api's or ads.

Same here on 4.3stock. Chrome and chrome beta auto refresh. Side-loaded Opera with same result.
Firefox nightly does not auto refresh, but after viewing a few pages here on xda, links become inactive. Boat and Ocean browser's have same issue as Firefox.
All is OK if I don't log in.
Mine is doing the same. It seems better with the Chrome Beta version released today, but it still does it occasionally.
Try switching the xda theme to "XDA 2013 beta - 1024." It did the trick for me :good:
Are you running low on memory?

I had the same issue, fixed it by disabling prefetch web pages in chrome settings.
Hope this helps.
Edit - sorry should be preload not prefetch.
Found this thread via google search, but yeah I had this problem too so thanks for the suggestions.
My question is why when browsing the forums, one post will have large enough to read text and the next post will randomly have too small of text. How is this fixed? Currently use Chrome but happens with Firefox too.
can confirm this with boat browser... since update to 4.3 as well, before it was fine.

You're the man--this worked. Thanks!
This has been a major annoyance for me. How do I change the theme though?
