So I decided to run one of the new roms (nuRom v2.0) with the base of the leaked ROM that came out last week. Everything is running good except I can't visit certain sites. For example, I want to download opera mimi but when I direct ie to operamini.com and the page never loads. I tried changing my dns # with open dns but that did not help. Anyone have any ideas?

I noticed no matter where I'm at my Hero does not seem to push out enough of a signal for me to view flash on my G-Tab when I have it tethered to my phone, I'm guessing that the viewing of web based flash media is bandwidth dependant .
Other individuals with different phones have no problems & since I'm not up to getting a new phone at this moment some Google searching lead me to Cloud based web browsers which seem to circumvent this issue. However I could find no such cloud browser for android. The thing is though is the JooJoo tab from my understanding uses a browser based Linux operating system, web browser included. So my question is does anyone know of a cloud based browser that I could use on my G-Tab? I want to see if this can fix my problem.

Hi Guys,
So, I've been Googling and forum-browsing for about two weeks now trying to find a solution to my problem but haven't been able to find, specifically, what I wanted so I thought I'd try my luck here to see if anyone else has experienced this:
For about a month, give or take, my SGS2 no longer uses 'mobile' versions of websites and I can't work out why (as in, what's changed) – because it used to before.
In case there's any confusion, what I mean is when I go to www[dot]google[dot]com for example, it loads the normal google homepage, not the smaller, optimised mobile google home page. This applies to Facebook, Wikipedia and a bunch of other, unrelated, websites that I browse on my phone that no longer auto-detect my phone and switch me to the mobile site. Which is what I want it to do (switch me to the mobile version of the site, that is).
Anyone else experiencing this and know of a solution?
My SGS2 is unlocked/unbadged, and I am running a custom ROM (Litening 2.2) although I was on 2.2, and previous versions of Litening, without this happening - so I don't think it's the ROM (plus I've searched it's thread).
I've also tried other, non-stock browsers (such as opera and FF) and they have the same issue. I've also tried clearing caches.
I've checked just about every damn setting on the phone that I can find, and Ive even removed almost every non-stock app but nothing seems to fix the issue.
Any help would be appreciated.
they probably forced the useragent of the internet app.
try to tape : about:useragent in the adress bar.
for opera and FF , if i remember, you can manage this in the settings.
Ok it was set to Custom and the code was:
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_5_7; en-us)
AppleWebKit/530.17 (KHTML, like Gecko)
Version/4.0
Safari/530.17
No idea what that is or what it means, but it seams odd to have so many references to Mac. Anyways I changed it to 'Galaxy S' and now it's working again! Thank you so much!
if i remember, there is a thread in the "theme and apps" section, about managing the useragent to be sure it won't revert to the "default" useragent(the mac one in your custom rom case ^^ ) after closing the app or rebooting the phone .
just in case it reverts again to the Mac one after a reboot
[edit] my bad it was in the android original dev section
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1126826&highlight=browser
that's probably how he modifies it, so it will revert to the mac one after a boot :/ (modified framework-res.apk, so you will need to learn to use apk manager if you want a "stock" behaviour).
Or just never reboot! (jokes )
Thanks for your diligence mate, very much appreciated
Using the CM7 alpha that was briefly available here.
I'm trying to access my employer's citrix server. I've installed the receiver and configured everything properly. I can login, but before it displays my apps, I get an error that says:
Too many server redirects.
I get the same error when accessing the web interface using the default Browser or Dolphin. I installed UCBrowser, and it properly displays the apps. However, when I click them, it simply downloads the ica file, rather than opening it. If I use a file manager and click on the ica file, nothing happens. If I long press it and select Citrix Receiver, nothing happens.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to get this working?
As the alpha was pulled for various reasons as well as not being ready, I would recommend waiting for a stable release as that problem could be resolved with a future release.
I understand where you are coming from... but the alpha was pulled for reasons not related to this issue. I also had the same problems using Snowball. I'm hoping there is some configuration that will ignore the multiple server redirects...
I just tried it my Evo 4G, running stable CM 7.1, and have the same issue... works fine on my windows and Linux boxes, and on my co-workers iPhone.
Sounds like an overall Android issue. Maybe try the Android forum?

I did read that thread, and tried opera (and a few other browsers) with no success... I'm not sure what APN is though... I'll see if anyone in the general Android forum has seen this.
You might also want to email one of the Citrix Reciver developers, to see if you can download an earlier version of Citrix for testing. They used to have 2.1 and 2.2 on the website, but I don't see that page anymore.
I am rather confused here. I have an Android TV computer (Neo X5) and a Samsung Note N7000. The Neo runs 4.2.2 and the Note 4.1.2 both are rooted (not that I think this matters here).
I am having difficulties streaming video from web sites in some cases. Sometimes the video begins to play and then locks up or just spins doing nothing forever. In other cases, I am told by the browser that the plugin is not supported. Worse still, this varies not only by browser but by device (some browsers work on one device while they fail on other devices - using the exact same web page for the video source).
I have installed Dolphin, Chrome, Opera, and Firefox. I have Flash 11.x installed. It seems like all of the sources are sending Flash. At least when I load the same pages into FF on my Windows XP computer the player is clearly Flash (I can right click on the player and see the Flash version).
I am testing using the following:
video.pbs.org
startrek.com/video
billmoyers.com/video
Can anyone explain this odd behavior? I am in the USA so location shouldn't be an issue. Right now I have all the browsers installed and get by using the ones that work for each site. But this seems crazy to me.
Thanks.
Perhaps a step in answering my own question:
Well, I found this list of browsers on Android supporting Flash <http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2234684> which is informative. Then I did some noodling around looking at the page source for each of the video sources I am trying to run (PBS, StarTrek, Bill Moyers). Of these, only StarTrek is clearly trying to run the Flash player. PBS seems to be using something called JWPlayer <http://www.jwplayer.com/>. And Bill Moyers seems to be using something called PowerPress Player <http://create.blubrry.com/resources/powerpress/using-powerpress/>. It seems as if these last 2 may be downloadable plugins that are not Flash after all (which is strange because when I run the same videos successfully in FF on Windows all are clearly using the Flash Player). So maybe I am finding that these last two items are simply not compatible with the various browsers.
What I still am finding hard to understand is why my results vary by device. But it may be Android version differences of some sort instead of something different in the device itself. I also suppose that the version of the browser apps may vary by device and/or Android version and maybe as such the pages delivered to the browser based upon user-agent, etc may be different and this could explain why things differ.
Hi,
I've just taken a 101-G8 out of its box after about 10 years. I was pleased to find it was still in working conditions, was able to connect it to the wifi, use the installed apps, but trouble started when I tried to browse (using the pre-installed Dolphin browser). Almost all sites give me the 'Web page not available' message. After some trials I found that accessing http version instead of https would work, if the site didn't force a redirect. So I suspect a certificate issue, but I have no clue how to update them. Then I found out that the AppsLib and Market apps are no longer supported, so I can't update or install new apps.
After reading the forums, I know I could try to upgrade Android to something like 4.0 (via Cyanogen), but I'm not even sure this would fix my browsing issues, which is all I need right now (I'd like to use it for my kids to access the doodlelearning.com website). Any advice for me?
Thanks!
