Does anyone else have this problem?
I have some local html files, which I have bookmarked in the stock Android browser. When I open the bookmark, all works well. However, when I put the bookmark on my launcher home screen (any launcher, I've tried a few!) it will not open.
If I have transdroid installed, I get an error from transdroid with a FC, if it's not istalled, I get "This application is not installed". THIS ONLY happens with LOCAL HTML files. I can place a link to say http://www.google.com on my launcher home, and it works just fine.
What gives???
Hi,
When installing the IMDB app I cannot set the browser to default when clicking on IMDB links - I just keep getting the prompt to select default action, which is extremely annoying when I want to browse the IMDB forums. I want to use the app as well, as I find it less painful to use than the browser when just searching for information.
Anyone with a solution, other than uninstalling the app?
Hello,
My phone started behaving strange, but ONLY when I connect to internet.
The following happens:
1. Google Play loads. WHY ??? I DON'T WANT IT TO!!!
2, Some app starts on the notification bar - the icon is like a star. Once I click on it, it starts opening some page with the browser.
3. I'm getting a notification about software updates.
4. The startup page of "Internet" - the browser becomes some strange web page. I have configured a BLANK startup page. When
I launch the browser not connected to the internet, it shows me a blank page and it doesn't try to open anything. But once connected
to the internet, the startup page changes !! Is that a virus / adware ? How to get rid of it?
Thanks for your help!
OK, as nobody posted anything, again I'm asking the questions and I am answering them too Just in case that somebody ever has the same problem.
To stop Google Play from popping up, just in Accounts, disable all the synchronization options for the google account.
The problem with the home page was solved by clearing all the cookies, browsing history, etc. from the browser.
Hello,
I have a strange problem after my update to 4.1 in my browser. After the update the freeze problem in my browser was gone, unfortunatelly I saw, that it had some problems while loading pictures. Therefore I cleared the cache and all data - as told in this forum to solve the freeze problem (in combination with a cold boot).
After that, all bookmars were deleted (as expected), unfortunately now I have no possibility to get acces to my bookmarks on google. It shows only the section - Local -. Even Saving new bookmarks I can only choose to save them -Local-.
Next step was looking at the Settings for sync - strangely there was no option for syncing the bookmarks. I have the usual contact, calendar, Pisca, mail and so on... but no possibility to sync the bookmarks.
On my Galaxy everything works fine.
When I delete the cahce and all data again, the browser shows a short messsage that it connects to the bookmarks on google (with my account) for about 3-5 seconds- but it does not work.
Does anyone has any idea what to to?
Thank you very much in advance. If there is already a topic regarding this problem, I am sorry, I could not find it.
Regards, Sebastian

Doesn't work on my Galaxy Nexus too. I believe Google drop that feature, since the JB official browser is Chrome, and Chrome sync is working fine.
I also have a Prime and a Gnex. I'm running Bamf JB rom on Gnex and the stock browser has my bookmarks. But the prime does not, same with no option in the sync settings. Why is this gone?
CMarks from the market will restore this functionality :good:.

When you say JB official browser is chrome, do i have to download it from the play store? I find chrome from Google play slower than the stock browser

Have you enable Private Mode?
Or maybe you have enable clear history when exiting Dolphin Browser.
