I updated to ota 005 and just noticed issues with YouTube videos showing as a blank green screen with chrome, chrome beta, and caf browser. They work in the lame YouTube app though. Anyone else?
I tried uninstalling browsers, changing kernel etc. Probably a gpu or decode setting?
I have the same with Opera. YouTube App works

Chrome has issues some times because of gpu-rasterization. Try using dolphin browser as it has its own video playing mechanism. Try reinstalling chrome and clearing cache.
Go to chrome://flags in your address bar.
Disable media source API and enable GPU rasterization. I'm not sure if the latter is even necessary.

after I updated to jb when I search for example for a youtube video or google play app and click the link it doesnt open the respective app instead it opens the links in the browser.
any idea?
You've set default values for some apps. Go into App Management, find Internet, click on it, and then click "Clear Defaults". You should then be prompted for which application you want to open certain types of link with the next time you click on one.

thanks for your answer but I already did that
I read somewhere, that's because of Apple patents. Not 100% about the info though.

I have the same problem. It's didn't work since JB upgrade.
Very annoying when you click youtube link in twitter and it's open in browser instead of native app.
BTW, it's obvious problem with only stock browser.
If you open link in Chrome or Dolphin you still have a choice to open in native app.
I will try to revert to ICS stock browser and see what happen.
Up ! I have this problem too... If someone can help us
Well, bad news.
ICS Samsung stock browser not working on JB ROM, FC all the times.
I think we should learn to live with it now, don't think they'll fixed it soon.
Hi folks. I am using Firefox desktop browsing to listen to XM Radio. However whenever the screen is turned off or I switch apps,
it stops playing. Is there any way I can get it to continue to play in the background?
Thanks
Mike

I believe that's because firefox doesn't do well in the background, I've noticed that when I tried an IRC web client through MOZ I'd lose my settings each time I switched apps. Have you tried using chrome or the XM app? I assume those would be better streamlined...

I will try chrome. The XM app is a separate subscription otherwise I would use that. Also for some reason even though I have installed flash and it works great with Firefox, Dolphin does not recognize if for some reason.

Dolphin takes a little tinkering for flash, if you want to try that this link should guide your way. That sucks that it's a separate subscription for the app...

If not you should. It is a revelation of speed and good design.
1) Web pages load fast and look great.
2) Super clean interface.
3) Bookmarks are easily organized with cloud syncing and backup.
4) Bookmark tree retains your last position.
5) Features prefetch and fast back (you have the option to return to a cached page when hitting the back button as opposed to the page reloading. This can save A LOT of time).
6) While flash animations won't play, YouTube and embedded videos seem to load quickly and play without lag.
7) Has a desktop version which will sync as Chrome does.
I've tried them all and for me, this is the premier tablet browser available today. Check it out in the Market. There are 3 versions. Pick the Tablet one. It's the best.
Your right.
Not an option in my book. If it doesnt sync with my desktop browser i don't use it.

Totally agree, I tried a lot of mobile brower but I always came back to Chrome because of the Google account synchronisation..

Just wish Chrome would finally give us sidebar bookmarks like Dolphin. I'd be on it in a second. Bookmarks in Chrome are so multistep and kludgy to use.

Yeah I want a mobile browser robust as Opera, synchronised like Chrome, and with Dolphin bookmarks sidebar + Maxthon gestures to change tabs !

People have been wondering for years why Chrome refuses to do sidebar bookmarks. There is a nice addon for desktop but nothing for mobile. They would double their user base overnight with that one simple addition. But they WILL NOT.
I am trying it out tonight. Thanks Mitchell!

Cool. And by the way, you can sync your bookmarks over the cloud using this just like Chrome and use it on your PC desktop as well. I especially like the way it caches pages so you can go back and forth without reloading.

Maxthon does sync over the cloud and has a desktop version.
Been using Maxthon since I saw this thread and love it..

I just wish Maxthon implemented gestures as deeply as Dolphin. I like using a gesture to turn javascript on and off on the fly. Can do it with Maxthon the old fashioned way but takes more steps. Nevertheless, if that isn't a priority for you it is a great browser and offers a desktop version which dolphin does not.
Does it have modules like Firefox? Can't use any browser without adblock at least.
Here's the link to their extensions center.

Didn't see anything specifically to block ads but it may be there under different name. There are tons.
Great find. Lots of potential but still buggy.

Yes a few quirks but don't they all?
Hi.. Anyone know which tablet support invert colour or built in black background with white text? I don't like night mode on every browser I've tried cause its not that black, so anyone? I also tried Firefox with black background white text add on, but the browser feel so lag while using the add on which I feel annoyed.
OK mitchellvii,
You MUST try Baidu Browser HD.... TRUST ME.
Tried Baidu HD: looks promising, but sluggish scrolling, gesture support but with too much lag, no auto fullscreen, odd rendering (fonts too small even at settings large)
Im downloading it now and giving it a try. thanks. Ill let u know what I think later.
Disable Lastpass in Settings > General > Accessibility > Scroll to bottom - if you're having lag issues.
I've noticed considerable lag in some apps while scrolling and disabling this helped. They sent out an update to Lastpass yesterday, but the lag was still present.
Any alternatives to Lastpass anyone can recommend?
I don't see "Lastpass" anywhere in settings. Even did a search.

Yeah, no Lastpass for me either.
OP - I use Enpass as I love the integration it has with Windows 10 and works well on Android as well. The fluid design is excellent too. Hasn't slowed my phone down at all.

Hi.
I first time use an s9+, and have some small, but annoying issue. I have kiwi browser installed, and I can't set it as a default browser. Or to be exact I can, and I did, but yet if I click on any link from social media, it still opens them with samsung browser. I never used a samsung before, so I would like to ask, what's the trick to fix this? And at this piont, looks like I'm also not able to disable samsung browser, and chrome as well. Is there any way to block those?

Hi, thanks, but it is set to kiwi, and looks like it ignores it. Also the section above lets me delete the defaults, and after I set kiwi again, but no changes with the behaviour, still opens in samsung browser. Also in that section where I should set links, it's inactive.
I just recently posted this answer in another post, worked for me on the latest Android 11 hope it helps you too

Google is being so annoying lately... I had this same problem and found a solution:
just install a browser that you aren't going to use (or one already on your device) and then set it as the default browser. Then delete that app (uninstall it) and the default browser will be back set to none.
Just super annoying because if you hit the button again later to set a default browser you'll have to do this all over again
