I am having issues with flash videos that are.embedded on webpages. It does play back but with maby skipped frames which make its more or less unwatchable.
I cant seem to find any kind of setting to help with this. Tried on various sites and my own wifi or friends. I am running stock GB with Peershot overclock to 1.4Ghz on demand.

GB??? Omg!!! I'd like to see that!
Just jocking mate... have you tried different browsers? And is flash enabled in the browser settings?

Lol sorry i meant Honeycomb. Spent too much time in the Galaxy Note forum.
I have tried tge stock browser, Dolphin browser and Opera but they all seem to be about the same. Flash must be enabked otherwise I would guess that I would have no play back at all. If i load the same pages ob my Note they play smooth and fine just the Tab that seems to struggle.

So since I've got my phone I've installed on 8 different browsers and still can't decide which one to use as my main one. So which browser do you use and why?
Dolphin mini because stock don't have a fast ua switch
Opera is the fastest but don't have a good configurable ua and there is no way to make it work at least for me btw opera is the fastest in all

Miren browser,

Miren here too, although the stock one is really nice and smooth so I switch between them a lot...
I use Opera Mobile, couldn't stand dolphin.
Dolphin was great in earlier android devices. But is horrible now. Stock browser works great.

Definitely the stock SGS II Browser for me. on my SGS I went with dolphin. But the SGS II browser is so much better. They've tidied it up and now can finally open 8 tabs very very stable and fast.
I'm loving the browser the most! + due to Samsung's Exynos chip my SGS II renders pages apx 1.5 times quicker than my sgs on the same wifi network
i dont understand how you can use a browser except stock browser.it is the fastest smoothest browser.no lag nothing.stock browser's amazing performance was the reason for me to buy SGS2.
dolphin mini all the way

only one i tried was opera mobile but i couldnt get the flash to work ?
And with the stock browser i tried acid3test and it scored 93/100 and opera got 100/100 lol i dont know.
Any browsers that get a 100/100 in acid3 and have full flash support, or am i just a noob and not know how to activate the flash on opera?
Miron or Stock work great
Miron used to be far better but not any more.

Two friends one who has a sgs and the other iphone were amazed @ my stock browsers speed. We were all on same wifi at my friends house.
Seriously it is SGSII's best feature.
I'm not forcing you to use it, just don't rule it out thinking it'll be just like sgs stock or android stock browser before installing your own. Have a try, with bookmarks and everything. You might change your mind ☆★☆★☆

Stock Browsers really nice, it's a shame though that it's a hassle getting to the tabs.
btw. Can anyone find a 'history' option?

....you don't have to scroll up to press the bookmark tab.
When your surfing anytime just press menu key and it pops up automatically. Now you can choose bookmarks -most visited-history

Stock browser looks like its the only one hardware accelerated. Wish there was a way to find out more info about this.
I switch between Firefox mobile and Opera Mobile. I've never even heard of Dolphin, I'll have to give it a try now!
Firefox crashes pretty often, but I still find myself using it more than the others.
I've done the hundreds of tests and stock browser is the fastest
Too bad
there's not a user settings like desktop or ipad et cetera.
Unfortunately you're stuck with mobile version sites in many instances.

Not at all. On the address bar type about:useragent and you can switch between whatever you like.

I'm using Dolphin because of this issue.
everytime i open the dam thing i have to type this in, frankly it sucks. if this was fixed i'd switch back to stock browser.
Ok do you guys get insane stuttering when trying to view these flash videos .http://www.logotv.com/video/episode-4-season-4-queens-behind-bars/1679428/playlist.jhtml#vid=730696
haha my girlfriend and her friends wanted to watch this show so I told them I could connect it to the tv with my hdmi adapter. then I loaded the video and it played back with the most insane amount of lag. I tried it with and without the mhl hdmi adapter. the problem exist either way. the phone itself didnt seem to lag though. because i could scroll smoothly through the webpage. any of the full episodes dont play right. I know it's a show about drag queens. haha but they wanted to watch it and I wanted to show off my new phone. of course that is when i find out these videos all lag. I have gone through two notes and both have had the issue on this website. Can anyone else test this out. sorry about the video content haha.
I experience the same lag on my note... And on wifi....

thank you! What can be causing this. I've tried using the fix for 10FPS video on stock and dolphin browser but it does nothing for this website. does anyone have a theory. The note should be able to handle that video. Especially a over clocked note. It was really embarrassing trying to show the note to a iPhone user haha

Except for the part where iPhone users can't even play Flash in a browser.
Edit: by the way the above video was flawless for me in Opera Mobile full screen mode. Unwatchable in the stock browser.
I think its LOGO`s WEBSITE!.
I have problems sometimes with it Producing Video on my 1080p TV with a 2GB Graphics card that I can play World of warcraft on ultra with 60fps on. SO I think its what logo uses.
same goes for Fox`s Website
Try using the Skyfire browser and see if it runs better. It's what I used for flash when I was on iOS. It will take the load off of your device and put it on their distributed computing network, and just stream you the transcoded video.

Haha true but still not a good way to show off the note. Interesting. I couldn't get it to work in dolphin. Let me try opera. What could cause these browsers to play these videos so poorly.

This must have updated after I tested with opera browser. It is finally watchable. I'm just curious what can cause the stock browser struggle.

Edit; Resolved.
Does anyone have a good browser? I'm using Dolphin HD and it's utter crap. Page's don't show when loaded until I scroll or zoom. The back button works awfully on it. It's unresponsive. Anyhoo, any good browsers? Other than Opera & Skyfire because they're both crap too. Cheers.

From what i have used over years the only proper browser is Dolphin HD, even on my rubbish Chinese cheap tablet its much better than stock (slow), opera (issues with browsing no visible tabs to click), firefox (cant even download files properly). Maybe You have some problems with Your S2 firmware ? try updating manually to latest becouse "Page's don't show when loaded until I scroll or zoom" looks like memory leaks not becouse of the browser

Wich one is better and faster?
How about you install the Chrome browser, do a comparison and let us all know :silly:
I already did that. But I don´t know how to measure this. I want to decide which one will be the main browser.
I installed Dolphin HD browser yesterday and from my short time with it Ive decided its heaps better than the stock browser. Faster scrolling and page rendering and better access to bookmarks (swipe in from the side)
Maybe try that as well?

Which one do you like using more? It can't be that difficult to answer.

Dolphin HD
I use Dolphin HD and many do that. I think it is the best browser for ICS 2012 now a days.
I tested Chrome Beta vs Stock. Stock renders faster. Chrome crashed quite a bit too.
Chrome doesn't support FLASH so sad but it's faster (for me). Anyone tried Dolphin on flash videos or .swf?
Chrome was considerably slower at scrolling and loading, I went back to stock.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Chrome has a lots of potential but for me it stutters like hell. What do you guys think of the ICS+ browser? For me it's smooth as butter on the S3, so fast and flash loads in a fraction of a second. Only thing is when you double tap to zoom in an area it zooms somewhere else on the page but other than that it's flawless.

Chrome is a better desktop browser (in terms of speed if not plugin support), but the stock ICS browser destroys Chrome mobile right now. I haven't tried the other browsers because I have had no need to. I may have to try out Dolphin HD to compare to stock ICS browser though...
I use opera for fast browsing and stock for flash video etc

got the message to get the update to release of Chrome, now all I get is a "package file is invalid" message when I try to download it. The beta has gone and I have nothing! Any suggestions what to do? Is there an apk file I can download and install on my SG3?
im a fan of google chrome so ide go for google chrome, its faster but theres not flash on it yet
the new firefox seems to work well
Does dolphin browser support flash? anyone tried it yet?
Have to bump this thread - thoughts on this topic now? Stock seems more fluid, still!
Tried streaming all day had some luck using stock browser. little luck with chrome dolphin Mozilla or opera. able to watch straight from youtube using any browser. flash player installed. has any found a work around. an app. or a different website with less ads. any advice
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
For a start what is the exact problem? And second what version of Android are you using? Flash can be problematic on JB because it's not officially supported now.
YouTube works because I believe it can use HTML 5 which updated Android browsers support

Hi guys, I use VIPBox all the time for games on my tablet. I dont get any issues. Make sure you use the original vipbox .(vipleague.se) theres a few fake copies that arent as good and i'm unsure if that may have any effect on the browser. :victory:
