[Q] Browser issue sola - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Greetings
I have a Xperia Sola and after the update 4.0.4 stock browser and optional chrome that i use has serious issues,
stock browser take too much time to load any site that i put (i dont mention heavy load sites that dont load at all)
but the sme happens to chrome, i cant find a solution or any trick.
Anyone has the same issue? Thanks for reading.

Try dolphine browser in the play store

Is it possible your phone or internet is too slow, stock browser is faster than chrome for me

You means now both Chrome and Stock browsers load site slowly?
If that's the case then maybe your internet connection is slow.
To check your internet speed, try downloading a file, and see what speeds you are getting.
Alternative browsers : Lightening Browser ( based on Stock), Mozilla Firefox

Internet connection isnt problem because i tried in multiple wifi spots and its the same. This happened after the the update to the latest version.

Are there any other apps that run fine with internet??
That'll help determine whether the problem is with those browsers only or ROM in general..

i have same problem when i open 2 tabs but i "solved" closing all apps in recent apps or killing them; but if it isn't an internet connection problem, to be sure, try to use speedtest.. chrome don't work in my case (uninstalled).. now i use dolpin and, strange but true, also works the floating touch =D

I guess you have DNS cache problem (and that probably occured if you didn't wipe cache/data, dalvik etc... after update to ICS).
You should try to manually insert DNS server parameters (best to use google --> 8.8.8.8 or 4.4.4.4 or 8.8.4.4)
Or try some of modding apps to make your DNS working again - that will required *ROOT*
Post here what happened, good luck!

I just noticed that you were also the OP to the other thread I replied to. Just a word of caution, try to post everything on 1 thread. The mods may not like all these different threads.
Anyway, check out my response to your rooting issue thread.
EDIT: Forgot to answer your question on this one LOL. I would reflash your ROM.

He is using 2.1 so he can't clear the cache. He would have to use root explorer, remove vending.apk from /system/app, reboot then reinstall the market.
@shahkam I was doing some test on updating the market on 2.1 but things didn't work out. If you want to stay with 2.1 the only thing I can suggest is use erickwill's custom 2.1 which already has tweaks but it's based on the stock 2.1 rom.

Yeah anyways i go back to 2.2 and i tried his rom also and got.same market issue it is because of the new market :/

Interesting...are you having trouble browsing the web using 3g/2g???
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Being blocked maybe?!
This doesn't seem an error on your rom, this seems more likely that something is blocking your download.
Not sure if this is your case scenario but i can't download any apk and others from my university.
If you are inside some company network, or something like that this most likely is the reasons.
When the download shows on the top it means your rom is trying to download, but the server may have been blocked, so it will keep trying for a long time, also may give you some small lag during that.
If you can download apk files from other sources it means that they may have blocked only using domain filter or ip filtering.
To be able to access the market doesn't mean that the server isn't blocked, only means that the main domain isn't blocked, i don't which is the server for market downloads so i can't tell you how to check this, but the best way would be to get try multiple wifi hotspots or a home totally not firewalled connection.
If it downloads but doesnt install try unmounting your SD card and download, try again and see what happens.

[Q] Skype is on but internet browser and apps wont work

Hello
I have a sgsII and it used to work well on my homebased wifi. I could surf and download apps. But for close to two months now only skype seems to work and i can't open any web pages not to talk of apps. I am so frustrated! I have read some posts here and followed the steps (reseting my wifi, router, clearing caches and cookies etc) none of them is working. Please help me.
Can you fully communicate by skype ? Does installing other browser (I.e. dolphin browser) changes anything? What rom are you using?

Thank you so much for taking time off to try to help me. The error had to do with the setting of my static ip address. It wasnt uniform I followed the guided steps on a certain website(which unfortunately i cant post here cos I am a new member) and glory be to God its working again.
Once again God bless you for your kind attention.
Happy to see your problems solved

Possible browser hijack?

Hmm, this seems strange, as I'm getting this "1buy.com" homepage on my browser. Changing it to Google works, but after a few hours it resets itself. I did several scans using Avast and Lookout to no avail.

There are lots of malware that avast or lookout fails to find. Did you install any suspicious apps or 'cracked' apps?

None if I'm not mistaken. I already removed several apps on my device, still the problem remains.
Try searching for an app with a name related to "online search provider" in the apps manager and then disable it to test if the browser goes back to normal.
I did this and it worked with my Chinese Sh*t Tablet.

Opera mini/mobile problem with my 5830i

Hi brothers,
i have an issue with Opera mini browser since i bought this phone (5830i), when i try to open ANY page it keeps looping at the address bar than it shows error in network message. I tried both with stock and custom rom, 3G and wifi and still nothing.
I've been looking for a solution before i ask for your help guys.
Review your network settings in opera
Go to advanced and change http to socket/http
That might help cos I was getting the same error when I used http as the protocol
And it would be really appreciated if you post your questions in the help thread in the stickies cos our general section is really flooded
So it is a kind request to post in the help thread to get more answers cos many people won't answer here cos ur flooding the general and could be harsh on you

Thanx for the quick reply. I already did change the network settings but nothing happens. The "weird" fact is that when i run test network, it tell me that i have a working network connection !!
And for the post, i think that this problem, if it is a common one, should be solved -i wish- and the solution should be clear and distinguish from other topics.

You might have changed SIM .....
Sometimes opera tries to access web via 1st SIM's access point using which you installed & 1st time you used the app ....
It happened when I had a symbian ....
Well uninstall opera » delete all the folders and cache opera created ( from system + SD card ) » restart your phone and install .... See if that works ....... :cyclops:

[Help] Chrome does not delete history

Alright, so I'm having this problem since a few months on both of my devices (Nexus 7 and Galaxy S3). For some reason, chrome keeps on remembering entrys of my history. It doesnt matter how many times I clear the browsing data, even clearing the app data doesnt work.
Web history and predictive search are both turned off.
Is there anyone that had a similiar problem and/or knows a solution? I attached a screenshot as example.

A question out of ordinary using the same methods as a regular PC... have you tried uninstalling Chrome and installing again from the Play Store?
i would recommend re-installing from the play store as well.
I have tried that, no luck though. I'll try and report it as a bug to Google, might get a response from them aswell.
