For some reason
when i open the internet browser up (i set the home page to be google.com instead of the t-mobile stuff)
the tablet version of the google shows up.
i was wondering if any one have the same problem
i haven't rooted or anything,
everything is pretty much stock.
i was wondering if there is any way i can fix this?
or if any one have the same problem.
Thanks
Nope
I don't seem to have this problem on both the stock and the Dolphin Browser. Have you tried installing another browser app from the market?
i found what the problem was,
i set the home page to Google.com
instead of www dot google dot com
now its fixed..

Just noticed I'm unable to load the google website on my UK orange Hero, tried using data connection and wifi but I just get a blank page. The only way to search using google is via the google search widget, but then the images link at the top and the other don't work, they highlight but nothing happens. Any one else having this issue or might know whats wrong
To answer my own issue, I enabled Javascript and its working now.
since the update I am having issue with the bowser defaulting to mobile sites in some cases. I have tried about:debug, erased the bookmarks in question, gone to the sites directly and it keeps defaulting to mobile versions of the site. its not every site but a few. there also is no home button built into the browser that i can find, you can set your home page but not fiding a way to get there! anyone have suggestions to fix?
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
I've rooted my G3 and have had issues with pages not displaying in full site views @ all (e.g. Accuweather) or incorrectly (e.g. Google Play) for some time now. I get "Server Error...Connection refused...Error 500" when trying to display pages in full site views in Chrome and Dolphin browsers. Other sites, like Google Play display incorrectly/wonky in full site and mobile views, meaning almost in a pure text view, no page search bar, etc. Also, I've noticed when going to the Weather Channel site, the page language displays English and Chinese/Japanese = odd. I've done a factory reset and still have this issue. I know this wasn't a problem before but I don't know if the rooting or use of of post root apps have done the damage. Right now, all I have are some basic rooted apps - ES File Manager, Cerberus, AdBlock Plus, SuperSU Pro, Titanium Pro, Webkey, Widgetroid, and Tasker. I've searched for answers and even went to LG for help, but nothing is resolving this issue. I'm @ a loss of what to do...anyone help, please?
What browser? I've had weirdness with the AOSP browser(s), never used Dolphin, Firefox, etc.
Chrome, both stable release and beta, work fine, altho I generally do not prefer full site view. If Chrome, perhaps try deleting Data then completely uninstall via Root Explorer / ES File Mgr by deleting the .apk in System/Apps, reboot, and download Chrome from Play Store.
It's the default browser with the phone, which is Chrome. I've tried Dolphin to see if it was Chrome and the same issues show up. It's odd that these problems didn't pop up until recently. I first noticed it when I tried to go from the Accuweather app to a detailed forecast via the app and noticed the full version webpage would not show. The more I looked into the issue, the more sites I noticed similar problems along with the newer issues mentioned.
Will the uninstall/reinstall create any issues since it's the default browser of the phone? I don't know if other parts of the ROM will falter when I try that fix.

Have you tried disabling the ad blocking? I have had problems (on a previous device) like this with certain ad blockers in place.
