I got a new Vibrant and every time I open a new page in the web browser, all it does is just closes itself! I cannot understand why!

Just wondering if anyone else is getting this problem. It happens when I am when browsing the Marketplace, or just browsing the internet. I don't know how it happened but I think it was while i was downloading an app, but which app I don't know. I am running 2.1 on my streak which i just got. Anyone got a solution or facing the same problem?
Sorry bout posting in both general and here. But the yeah its just like a pop up on a computer. but instead of opening a new browser, it just re-directs you to this black screen with a play icon. Is there anyway to get rid of pop ups? or should i wipe the phone and re install 2.1?
eh? popup on streak.....bro, you need to stop trolling for porn while in McD's
Skyfire browser.
Wasn't during porn, haven't checked that out on the streak...yet. i'm 99% sure it was while i was downloading a soundboard app off of the market. I've googled it and it seems a few other people got the same problem but from downloading the dolphin browser, which i don't have.
You could try on of the android malware checkers or adfree from the market. Failing that a full wipe might be in order.
Before when I was using the SE stock ROM I was able to open the browser and it would display the last page viewed.
Now that I'm on a Cyanogen 7 based ROM every time I open the browser it reloads the home page.
Is there a way to stop it from doing this and open on the last viewed page?
Thanks in advance.
My wife gave me a White Galaxy S II international version from Amazon.com for Christmas.
I first noticed this with the stock internet browser.
I am having a little problem with the podcasts section on Engadget.com. As soon as the page is near or finishes loading, the browser crashes and I'm returned to the launcher.
If I am quick enough to long press on the .MP3 link to download the podcast it crashes without the save prompt showing up and the download isn't started.
I downloaded Dolphin Browser HD and I get the same results. This is the browser I used on my Inspire 4G with no problems.
This is viewing the desktop version of Engadget.com, also with either Android or Desktop as the user agent.
I don't have trouble loading pages on other sites.
Does anyone know why this is happening?
Just tried it myself and it worked fine. Are you trying the "save link" option? You could try "download all files" application from market. I've got it installed because I've had a problem in the past.
DoubleTwist
Try downloading the app doubletwist you don't need to sync it to your computer or use air sync all you need to do them is download the item again
Hope this helps
Not to be rude but I'm looking for a solution, not a workaround.
I could just stream it from the website or the Engadget app, but I want to download the podcast from the page as I'm reading Engadget posts without starting up another app to do something I could do easily on a much simpler and lower quality phone. The building at my work tends to kill wifi and cell signals so I need to download the podcasts to listen to them.
I did have cyanogen installed on my Inspire. I wanted to see if I could use this phone without ROMs.
Thanks anyway.
download all files from market , the stock browser doesnt download all file extensions mate , that could be the reason
dolphin browser is quite useless to download files...the best one to download files are the opera mobile. i used that to download basically everything....try it...

Like I said "download all files"
Just install it then use the stock browser to download the pod cast
The stock browser and dolphin can download mp3s from other sites. My Inspire 4G running cyanogen could do it, too.
Apparently there is some code on the Engadget page that my phone doesn't like.
The browser crashes as soon as the page either finishes loading or right before it finishes. It had nothing to do with downloads.
Edit: I installed Opera Mobile as recommended above by kruznix and the page loads properly.
I'm still curious if anyone knows why this is happening.
After the ics 4.0.4 update to my 10.1 tab, I started having a strange problem with the stock browser. When I open a new
browser session, the browser opens to my defined homepage as expected; however, if I select the url and type any character
on the keyboard, the browser immediately redirects to the google search page. Because of this the browser is almost unusable.
Does anyone out there have any ideas? I fuzz'ed around with the settings for a while but no luck. Fyi, I don't have Google Instant enabled. Thanks in advance for any help

Nice . Thanks for that.
you guys should turn off the preloading search results (or smth like that) in browser options -> profit
Hey everyone.
Im looking for an app that allows to save web pages for offline reading. I found Pocket, which has this function, but it seems to work sometimes and others it doesnt. Sometimes I open a downloaded web page when Im at bed to read it and it doesnt show up, maybe because it didnt download it correctly. Other times it seems it needs an internet connection to open the web page in web view.
I never use the article view. I always prefer the exact same web view.
Also I would need this app to have some sort of backup method, so I dont have to redownload all my web pages over and over again whenever I try a new ROM.
Any advice?
Thanks.

The Ocean browser in the Play store can save Web pages for reading offline.
Its not an app but there's a site called offliberty that can save a page for offline viewing through your browser. Never tried on a phone/tablet so idk if it'll work.
Stock AOSP Browser allows this.

I have used "web to pdf" to save a bunch of diy's from a car website. It works really well.
