Hello guys
alright,as the tittle says,im currently on Resurrection Remix 3.0.5 JB
my problem is the web browser and im having several issues with it
1- Web page reset back to google/default whenever im out from browser,
for eg ; let say you're currently browsing xda,then there's a notification or sms coming and you check on it,return back to the browser and the page will reset back to google
2- Multitab and using bookmark wont work
you open one tab let say youtube,then you add another new tab,go to your bookmarks for new website let say xda. the youtube tab will disappear.
its like using any bookmarks will replace any tab you have and it will back to only one tab again. I cant even switch between two webpages since it will override one another
on browser setting ,i already tick
-open in background (open new tabs behind current tab)
-Allow multiple tabs
and none of them works.. am i the only one facing this issue or am i missing some setting :crying:
Maybe you should try to post in the RR thread.

I'm having the same issue on my Verizon Galaxy Nexus. I couldn't find a solution so I installed Chrome.

New to the Forum. Just received my G tab last night (Woot deal). Loaded TNT 4.4. A few questions:
1. I can copy and paste in the gmail app but not in the browser, why?
2. How do you open new tabs in the browser (for instance by holding on an address like on my droid). I know you can open new tabs but I want to load them like the Droid if possible.
3. Menu Key does not work in browser but works elsewhere, why?
4. Some apps I have on my Droid do not appear in the market, why is this?
5. Can I set a password for the device?
Thanks in advance for any responses. Love the G Tab and TnT Lite, thank you all for developing such great upgrades for the G.
1. Ditto on the password.
2. I've been able to install 4 apps from the market. The angry bird series and Stupid Zombies. Everything else crashes the UI when it hits the install phase (firefox, openoffice viewer, connectbot, etc). The apps download fine, but when it tries to install I drop back to the booting animation (Xoom?) and then I'm back to the unlock screen.
I've searched the forums and haven't found anything on #2.
#2 is not related to 4.4.0. I opened another thread and solved it myself. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12555057 (sorry for the hijack).
On #1, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12542977&postcount=3. The solution is to setup a link to the security pref screen that is hidden. No info on how to do that and I don't see it as an option on my tablet.
Installing apps
I don't have a problem installing apps. Just with the other things. Thanks for the link, will come in useful seeing as I have not installed a tons of apps yet and may still encounter this. Thanks for the replies!
any luck on #3? Mine doesnt work either
has anyone figured out how to setup the link to configure a password yet?
Anyone fix the menu button YET?
The browser that came with TNTL 4.4 was not very good in my opinion, so I installed Dolphin HD browser. It is much better and the menu button works on it giving you many options.
yes I have the same problem. I did the market fix and I still have missing applications. When I try to download online it says I dont have a device? doesn't recognize gtab-tnt-Lite.. the stock browser on this doesn't even let you select text, I couldn't even find dolphin hd browser :/ was there a new update that I missed?
you'll need to try to apply one of the numerous market fixes (search the forums and i'm sure you'll find several).
The one that finally seemed to work permanently for me was the "edit the build.prop" file method.
You are definitely going to want to grab Dolphin HD. MUCH better then the stock browser....
I'm using a Galaxy S II I9100G with DZKH4 stock firmware, Android 2.3.4. I'm finding that the browser sucks. Firstly, there's no Home in the menu. I can set a URL as Home in the options, but while I'm browsing, there's no way jump to Home other than opening a new window. Then the bookmark function is broken. I marked a page as a bookmark, but when I click the bookmark button, it doesn't show. In fact, the bookmarks list is totally empty! If I tried to re-add the same page as a bookmark, it says that the bookmark already exist, but I can't find it!
So the question is, why does it suck, and is there anyway to fix it, or even replace the stock browser with a better version? I like the stock browser on my (now dead) HTC Desire, is it possible to put that one into my Galaxy S II?
I use Dolphin Browser HD, free on the market. Lots of addons and highly customizable.

I like the stock browser, Well the old one with bounce and not the new one with crappy overscroll.
Only thing i wish it had was tabbed browsing. I know Dolphin has that but i dint really like that one.
As for the OP bookmark issue ive no idea why that is happening, it certainly shouldnt be. Have you tried clearing the cache/data in settings?
use opera browser, dolphin hd they are good ones from the market..but for me i love my stock cant live with out it....and if you press menu button while in browser you can get options to make the browser the way you want.....i cant live without it
I switched to Opera mobile from day 1. The stock browser doesn't reflow text when zoomed in, make reading articles a pain in the butt.
First post here....
FINALLY got a chance to play around w my Galaxy 10.1 last night. Mostly looking on line, setting up bookmarks/favorites etc.
I have a question on the web browser. Every time I click on a link, it opens a new tab. After 10/15 minutes of browsing, I had tons of tabs opened up top. Is there any way to make the browser "behave" like Mozilla Firefox does on my home PC? In other words when I click on a link, it just goes to that web page without opening a new tab up top.
Also, when I shut down the browser, then re-open it, all of the tabs I had been looking at are still there. Basically what I'd like to have happen is to have all the tabs close out when I close out the browser.
Is there a workable solution to these issues?? Can I change the settings somewhere? Should I download a different browser??
Thanks!
Yes. You may need to download another browser. It seems stock browser cannot fulfill your request.
I recommend Dolphin Browser for Tablets.
When I updgraded to ICS, Dolphin HD behavior changed in several ways - all of them for the worse.
If these were global issues under ICS, I'm sure I could find info on them elsewhere.
I'd like to narrow down whether changing ROMs would resolve any of these problems, or whether it's something specific to my setup.
So, if you're a Dolphin HD user, can you reply with info on which ROM you're using and whether or not you've seen any of these problems? [Yes, I'd like to hear from people for whom Dolphin is working fine.]
1) In Gingerbread, long-pressing on an empty area of the screen loaded a menu (close tab, find on page, etc)
I can no longer get that menu on ICS
2) In Gingerbread, when I highlighted text and chose Share, Dolphin would send the URL and Page Title along with the selected text.
ICS only shares the selected text, without any contextual info.
3) Open Link in New Tab / Open Link in Background Tab only work intermittently under ICS. Frequently, no tab is created at all - foreground or background.
4) The Dolphin: Evernote Add-on (com.dolphin.browser.addons.evernote) creates notes with empty bodies. In Gingerbread, it copied the webpage into Evernote.
5) New tabs frequently display a label of aaaaaaa instead of the title or URL.
FWIW, I went from Stock Gingerbread (rooted) to the Kies update (which I then rooted).
Thanks for any info. Needless to say, this has been extremely frustrating.
Yea I also experience #3 pretty often, it is pretty frustrating. I'm using Team Objection ROM

I've used dolphin for 2 years, I'm currently on a Rom that is not on xda, it's a cm9 based Rom though.
Long pressing on a page only brings up the text selection, can't recall the menu you're referring to haven't been on gingerbread since the first leak.
New tab opens every time with the proper url displayed. Actually, open link in New tab, is my default behavior.
Don't use any add ons so Idk.
Don't use the share option, never have, o just copy the url and send that to whomever i wish to share with

I used dolphin browser for a while but then I switched to chrome, its awesome I love how everything is synchronized with my computer and how smooth the tabbed browsing is

Yeah...i mean who needs flash support anyway?
I doooooooooooooooo,
#1 and 2 are true on stock Motoblur ICS, so this is not a ROM issue.
#3 - 5 work fine for me.
#1 works on Dolphin Mini. #2 crashes Dolphin Mini
I, too, don't know why this issue isn't found elsewhere. I'll be raising a bug report with Dolphin, for whatever that's worth.
I'm running the excellent Toldo P7510 JellyBeanRom ICS v6 but I'm having problems with opening links in browsers using desktop useragent. For instance if I go to digitalspy I can't open ANY links by short clicking them. If I long click them and then select 'Open in a new tab' it opens fine. This is true for Dolphin and stock browsers.
However if I change the useragent to Android then it all works fine.
I also sometimes have a problem where the back button doesn't work as expected. Pressing it once refreshes the screen to the same page. If I press it many times in succession it will eventually go back a page (or more)
Anyone else experience these problems
Is nobody else having this problem? It's driving me bonkers!
I've hat the same errors. but two days ago I switched to this kernel
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1877784
and till now I don't recognized this error. anymore. maybe it's an issue of the A1 Kernel Toldo uses in his v6 rom.

Thanks marco.michel, I tried the new kernel but it behaves the same for me. However I managed to fix the link problem by disabling javascript in the browser settings. Still have the intermittent 'back' button problem though.
Just realised that disabling javascript breaks a lot of web pages that use it to function properly so that's not an option.
Anyone else on ICS having this problem with links not opening? Can people try going to digitalspy and click a few links for me, would be interested to know if t's just my tab or a general problem.
