nope
try the beta

Yes. I've noticed Chrome will just refuse to load pages sometimes. I started using Chrome Dev and the problem seems to be not as bad.

Site specific glitch

Can anyone else verify this glitch. The browser find on page feature for some odd reason always freezes and makes me force close the browser on some sites.

Since you say "some sites" give me an example and I'll check for ya, but I'm not going to go looking for random sites to see if I can confirm it or not.
Try worldstarhiphop
It works fine in.dolphin HD

Yes, I experience the same problem as you do on that site.

Touch sensitivity and lag

Anyone having any issues with with their screens sensitivity such as the keyboards typing being very laggy and scrolling being very laggy as well. Tried doing a factory reset and no difference so I'm guessing defective product. Probably going to exchange tomorrow. Anyone else?

I only experienced that so far when typing a response on XDA. Some other forums I tried with the browser work great. Gmail works great. Scrolling is also slower on XDA but fine on other sites. There are other threads on this already.
A calibration.ini text file on root of memory worked for gtabs. Put it in the root directory nothing in it. Just a txt file called calibration.ini reboot the tablet but dont touch the screen during reboot. Try that

same here only lag when typing in forums
Quick update. I had my xoom plugged into the dock which was plugged into my 200w inverter which is pretty beefy and after unplugging the lag ceased. So obviously they dont play well together. And a little fyi for anyone else who might be experiencing similar problems.
I had sensitivity issues while I had their screen protector on. And then again for like 10 minutes after my fiancee spit on it.

Jealous, is she?
Why don't you guys use the offical xda app? I can't get anything to lag on my xoom. I know that it'll lag if you are in the browser. But just download the app and use it as it seems easier to me.

The official XDA app fails to load half of the time and is slow the rest of the time on my XOOM. It used to be the same on my Nexus One, but after putting Gingerbread on last night it flies faster than I could imagine.

I don't use the XDA app because, if I recall correctly, it requires my device's ID. I don't download any application which requests permissions that it doesn't actually need to function.
It also lags horribly when typing comments on Slashdot (worse than on XDA). But here, scrolling lags as well whereas on Slashdot it's only typing.

Yeah, it seems consistent with certain sites. I am sure it is fixable with an update.

Browser Hang

I dont know why but what ever browser i use it eventually gets to the point where the browser just hangs not crash, it just wont load links i click on or refresh the page its almost like if the internet connection has gone, it is definatley not a connection issue as my pc, laptop and ps3 have no issues. Its getting really annoying now, i have used various roms from aokp, asus hydro, i am currently using aokp build 40. I have used every browser, stock, chrome maxthon, dolhin hd, xscope, it doesnt seem to do it on firefox beta but its horrible and until the firefox team try and make it even slighty resemble the desktop version im not using it.
Anyone had this issue?

Thanks guys ill give it a try

Anyone else annoyed BY chrome's constant refreshing?

I hate how it ALWAYS refreshes. Every time I leave the app then come right back to it, it just refreshes everything. Ugh.
I fap to the porn forums on Tapatalk 2
I haven't really noticed. The lag when it accessing the bookmarks is painful though...
Yup really annoys me. Especially when you go to type something in and it refreshes and doesn't include what you just typed.

Chrome sucks. Get xscope 7. It is what chrome should have been
Even when going back to a previous viewed page in chrome it refreshes. Very annoying and totally kills the browsing experience.

I use to love Xscope (Amazon free app). Decided to buy it since it is now JB which Amazon won't upgrade to. It's real nice UI... but still isn't as good as it is on my Galaxy Player (GB). On my Player ANY mobile site will pinch zoom. On the N7, no mobile site seems to pinch zoom. This means "text" and "zoom" levels have to be "perfect" and changed quite often (since all sites seem to have different text sizes). I may start using Desktop mode, but I really like many mobile sites. Chrome works great. I was hoping the updated Xscope would be its replacement. Good thing it was $3 of my free $25!
PS: I never noticed a refresh in Chrome.

the android(aosp) browser, not chrome, doesnt refresh. and plays flash just fine, btw.
I've noticed that when I open several links in other tabs, when I get to the tabs they are blank and load or refresh the page once I switch to the tab.
I am not having this problem, in fact I was just viewing three pages simultaneously (switching between them) while on Skype and no reloading :S and while typing this I switched over to chrome and all 3 tabs still loaded.. :/

Just disable the translating in settings. It have to solve the issue

[Q] Random Restart

Hi there folks .. been using the Nexus 10 for the past few days. All stock settings with minor apps installed. But I noticed a few times on random basis the machine just restarts by itself. All restart happened when I was browsing on Chrome. Latest was just this morning I was reviewing some sites on the comparison of browsers from different source and suddenly just restarted for no apparent reason.
No big deal for me but don't feel nice. Any way to check or find out what's causing it to restart and how to stop it??
Chrome has never played nice with my tablet...I would highly suggest using a different browser
I only have random reboots in Chrome now. I think its memory-related, but not sure
4.3 fixed the memory leak related reboots.

Thanks .. I'm already running 4.3 on my Nexus 10. I just needed to ensure this is really Chrome problem. I could install other browsers to try. Please share if others are also experiencing the same problem.
