Install Adaway from here, and also block pop-ups in Chrome browser settings.
and It's happening because of the website which you are browsing, not because of your ROm or Chrome.

im not saying that its related to the Rom and ive tried an adblocker app but then my browser and chrome freezes into white screen and sometimes an error or html fail.
and the website's im on i never had trouble with it, like torrentz.eu and moddedapk etc.
i think the problem is deeper
i have some screenshots but the choose file button doesnt respond.

It's Google's fault for having that vulnerability. Go on stock Touchwiz Internet browser and none of those appear. Even on stock and using Chrome, I see those too. It's quite annoying. I'm surprised that the devs of Chrome has not given an update about it.

i have to go on a stock launcher ? or the stock webbrowser from touchwiz.
cus the fist option can't be done i geuss

Anyone getting browser freeze/FC? I'm sick of it, hardware?

Running tasks v5 rom, much better than before, but still get a lot of freezes (forcing a hard reset by me) or force closes where the browser disappears. Nyone else getting these yet?
No browser freeze on mine.
I have problem accessing seekingalpha.com. Browser (stock) wouldn't load content and than just chrashes. It happens everytime, with no exeptions. Could someone try to open it and let me know what happens?

I'm not web expert, so I don't know what's going on with this site, or in what "technology" is it written. But, they have changed site recently, and since than it started to be extremely slow on my HTC Desire (Gingerbread), like beating the hell out of the processor. And now I found out that crashes Honeycomb browser.
Is there any way to contact Google to point them to this problem? I couldn't find it...
Opera or Dolphin can open it. But also, there are some rendering problems in Dolphin with left column (adds and some links on the top). It's dynamic (moving with you as you scroll the page), so that could be source of the problem.
I haven't had a problem with this site really, mostly when the keyboard is up (using Swiftkey) or quickly scrolling. Also other things like samsung email app and a few games seem to cause problems.
All seems very random and infrequent, can't find a pattern to them yet.
Just got my first browser FC today, happened twice when trying to add a bookmark
could this be a hardware problem? The tab freezes several times a day, usually on the browser (use that the most too), also in exchange email app and various games. It's driving me nuts. Tried every rom out there as well as stock and pershoots kernel.
Anyone have any ideas? It's driving me crazy and I'm curious if I could have a serious problem or if it's something the right update could fix.
I use Dolphin for Pad browser (not Dolphin mini or HD). Never had a FC.
tried dolphin. No difference.
have u tried the v6.1, got some (few) lags on v5 but v6.1 is smooth (for me) now
Yes, I've tried 5,6, 6.1,overcome, starburst. Makes no difference.
In Dolphin use the desktop agent instead of Android. It' their mobile site that causes the problem. If your rooted you should be able to set the stock browser to desktop also.

[Q] links from non browser apps don't open in browser

hi,
I came across a weird problem. I don't know if it happened after an app update or what, but when I try to open links in non browser apps, the browser never opens, the screen dims like its trying to open a new app, but it never does. I have to press back or home to get out of it. I tried checking all my apps to see if the wrong program had hyper links as an incorrect default but I found nothing. I use dolphin browser HD and I'm using the Prime ROM. Any help is appreciated, thanks.
Fixed it. Reinstalled Dolphin and now it works.

[Q]Why I can't load this site in my s5?

Po.st/
It seems that I can't access this site with any browser in my phone, I don't remember when it still but it's really annoying. It's a link shortener service used by many pages on my facebook timeline like news, men's health, music......
I've tried to access this site with facebook browser, Mozilla and chrome but even the home page of po.st/ gave me an error message
So, any idea how to fix this?
I'm on lollipop but I remember having this problem with KK too.
Thank you
Do you use an adblocker? If so that's probably why.
Edit... Im assuming your rooted. You can use the Hosts editor app and open it and search www.po.st and select that file and delete it then you should be good to go.

[Q] A bit laggy while playing

My phone is G530H and rooted method by Mohan..
First issue: when using Google Chrome and stock browser. It freeze for a almost 5mins and sometimes more than 5mins...
I disabled the JavaScript and after that it run smoothly...
I found solution here forum.xda-developers.com/grand-prime/help/phone-freeze-using-browser-t3083428
but Is there a way to use Chrome without that lag? or any better rom? I can use aosp 4.4.2 browser if there's no other option...
Second Issue: I experiencing a bit lag while playing... did you ever felt a bit lag or delay while playing CoC or any other games?
Is there a working and tested custom rom faster than the stock?
Any reply is appreciated...
Sorry my English xD....
Mine is rooted free of bloatware, remove all most anything related to google, I only keep with youtube, maps, g+, install cloudmagic as my email client for Gmail and Outlook, greenify Facebook, Twitter and some others,, and my phone runs really smooth, no lag, browser is really fast, using aosp 4.4.2, chrome eat to much ram, game are OK, not the best experience, but one or two lag is OK.

Thanks for your concern...
So there's no way I can use Chrome without that lag and freeze? I think it's because of Javascript and it's trying to run like Chrome in PC...
Did you delete your stock browser using root apps like System app remover(Root), and installe AOSP 4.4.2?
I read the method and the first one to install is like Providerproxy.apk @ system folder and G530H don't have that APK...
Did you install it directly? what is that Providerproxy.apk for, anyways?
I just use titanium, remove all the bloatware and Google stuff with it, the default Samsung browser and then install the aosp 4.4.2 browser like a normal apk, that is all I did, don't have my favorite page and sincro with pc, but I prefer this way.

Last question please...

What browser do you use/recommend?

I'm on Verizon so no Samsung Internet for me.
I don't really like Chrome (doesn't seem smooth)
What do you recommend?
What's fast, smooth, stable, and easy on battery/resources?
I use chrome, only because I used to use safari. Considering there's no safari on android, chrome offers seamless integration between my mac and S7 Edge.
I'd stick away from Firefox personally, only because of security problems with the browser.

try Chrome Beta - I've always found it less choppy.

I'm on Verizon too, Samsung says they are still working on it but eventually we'll be able to download the Samsung browser from the play store.
I use Chrome Beta as well, I have for a couple years now. I haven't had any problems that I've noticed and I'm quite pleased with the browsing experience on it
Samsung browser with adblock fast. Faster than my desktop PC

In vellamo, the stock one has better score
But i think there's no significance different between the stock one and chrome
crashes....
Chrome (the native one for t mob s7e) CONSTANTLY was crashing....
I moved onto chrome dev...then beta.. all crashed...
So now i switch between adblock browser, and using NO ROOT adblock through fast adblock on the samsung browser... (for anyone that doesnt know, there is a secret menu to turn on adbloxking)
Chrome has become bloated and slow, I use the Samsung browser because is fast and it also supports ad blockers now.
Even if it is not included, can't you just go to apkmirror and download and install it ?
Firefox beta with adblock, smooth and stable so far :good:

I agree. Tried the others, but always come back to Firefox with adblocking.

Seems pretty fast, too bad you cant open tabs in the background, that's kinda dumb.
I use opera browser, mainly because it has a toolbar at the bottom.

Don't know how you are crashing all the builds of chrome.. But i've always been stuck on Stable Chrome and never seen a crash on Android builds.
Next Browser is beautiful and intuitive, Butterfly is the fastest there is.
I use chrome but it's getting worse and worse and worse. Not sure what google is doing but their apps are just regressing
Opera is a good altrnative, going well here

I guess most people didn't read the OP. I don't want Chrome and can't get Samsung browser
Question. Samsung browser every darn time i open a google drive link. It doesnt download. Just ask me to open it from my account. I jave tried everything and cant download the files. Anyone know how to disable this?
UC browser is a ton smoother and faster then Chrome for me, built in adblocker, built in flash player, just have to disable a few things in its settings as it has some Facebook and other integration it puts into notifications window.
After that, it's really awesome. Completely themable too, and can turn every web site into a black OLED friendly version if you have a play with the theme settings
