It seems like anytime facebook opens a browser it crashes. What browser is everyone using that is stable? I'm getting tired or waiting for it to give me the hung message so I can close it. Bee trying Chrome and it has the same issue.
I don't have this issue and I have even opened pages from Facebook where it has a lot of images and ads with javascript and all.
K. Maybe it's a one off issue. I'm gunna backup and default it. See if that fixes it.
They do it on purpose so that you download the application so they can steal all your personal info on your smartphone. Browsers have security features built into them that do not allow them access to all your personal stuff. Their browser never crashes on regular browsers while using a PC. What you could do is just but a small device like an iPod and have nothing on there except maybe Instagram and Facebook. Then they have nothing to steal from you. Just use it to log on to Facebook or Instagram after and the heck with their permissions after.

I need access to full gmail (not simple html) through web interface. Gmail app and html simple don't work for me, because they ruin the organization and order of messages when compared to desktop interface.
I have tried Skyfire and it does load full Gmail interface, but it is painfully slow, consumes enormous amount of memory and loads cpu to 100%. Pretty much unusable.
I'm not sure if ajax (or gmail in particular) on android wouldn't run any better or if it is just a matter of finding the right software and setting.
I don't have a direct solution, but have you tried the other versions of gmail, stock email, and Sense email apps?
I'm using the ICS 4.0 version of gmail, and I like it a lot.
Search google for the apk.
They may have the layout and options you want.
Thank you for suggestion. I have tried to find something that works, but other than Skyfire (not useable) and Remote Desktop (quite uncomfortable), I couldn't find anything so far.
Here is my problem. I receive ton of emails everyday, I use several workstations to access emails, I sort, label and read them, reply from different workstations. Works great having the same screen on all the machines, no matter where I am. I can start my work on one and finish on the other without loosing track of what I was doing.
I would love to work on my emails using Flyer the same way, but as of right now it is very uncomfortable for me, simply because my mail boxes don't look the same on android.
For example I have one of the mail boxes set up to show important and unread first, next emails marked with specific labels (might have several labels), then everything else (important read, unimportant unread etc). This simple thing saves me a lot of time and I know what to do next regardless of what workstation I access my email from.
When I use GMAIL app on my flyer, my mail box looks like a mess in comparison to desktop version. I get lost there so bad that I miss what needs to be done next. At this point I decided not to use GMAIL app to access work email at all.
I have tried to get to my emails through Web Browsers with desktop user agent string, but it loads in plain HTML, hence I loose the order again.
Only Skyfire browser loads the full version of gmail, but as I have said earlier is consumes more than 200mb of ram and loads CPU to 100% and makes it pretty much unusable. Not sure if it is a problem just on my Flyer or if it is how ajax is done in Skyfire.
I'm hoping to find solution (browser with good ajax?) that would allow me to access full web interface. I was just wondering if anybody knows if such thing or add-on exists. I hope maybe when CHROME browser comes out they have the good ajax support.
I hope I'm just being really dumb here, but I can't work out how to view friends' albums on Facebook on my prime (using the official app).
When I browse a profile on my phone using the same app, I get the - About - Friends - Photos - Likes thumbnails, but not on my Prime.
Anyone else noticed this?
facebook seems to update like every three days, honestly your better off making a shortcut in your web browser and using their mobile site, its touch oriented and works better than any app i have used. You can also get your notifications from facebook going to your email so you can get notifications when people message you or whatever in email instead of in the notification bar and it still takes you directly to the content.
Sure its an extra button press but thats what works well for me. YMMV.
Was kind of expecting a 'use the browser' response, which is fair enough I guess.
Just wondered why the feature was removed or if it's just hidden somewhere.
I prefer using apps to browsers.
Hi there I just notice on the weekend that my wife sent me a link from her GS2 using the LOCAL app on her phone ..found the Address/ Place that we wanted to drive to the shares that via SMS to my phone and on all other account I would just open the sms and click the link and it would open the MAP app .. but this time it opened the browser ahhhh..

Hi xda developers !
So i have a problem, since i updated my rom i have a new in-app browser(i guess you call it like this). The problem is that the new browser doesnt open pictures as it should, so when i am on reddit/facebook.... and i open a link with a picture it simple doesnt show or just shows a little. I have google chrome and the default browser, i tried to freeze the default browser and using chrome and also tried even using dolphin but it simply doesn't matter, the images continue to don't show. I wonder if there is an in-app browser and how i can change it or if there is another way to fix my problem.
Thanks
I am not sure why all apps are coming with in-app browser. When ever you click on a link in-app browser for the app takes control. I hate this feature.
Is there any exposed module or any other root application which could **** this annoying in-app browser feature apps like Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, stackexchange, tumble and many others.
I can't disable this feature one-by-one for every app

This is the absolutely most frustrating thing EVER. Instagram just opened YouTube inside the damn Instagram app - it was total **** - couldn't go into landscape mode, didn't sign me in/recognize me, couldn't save the link/watch later (b/c I wasn't signed in), and NO LINK to the full app!
This and not being able to choose 'desktop mode" as default for Chome Browser are the two most frustrating things for me as an Android user. Pisses me off so much that I stop using some apps for months because of it.
