Maybe it's because of the number of browsers. How long has it been going on? Each little thing done could be done so many ways it asks you to set a default for every little thing. Haven't heard of that problem though. So how long has the problem persisted?

Two days and its really annoying because I use mobile internet more than my laptop so any page I open It prompts

Same here. Wish I could be more help. If it's only 2 days is it possible that it is just getting all ur defaults back. Have u done a wipe / flashed new rom?

I had the same issue on my Evo. Apparantly you can't set Browser to the default within browser. Use someting like twitter and click on a link and set/check the default from there.
Have there been any further developments regarding this? I prefer to use the stock browser, but due to this problem I've been using Dolphin Mini.

Is the browser on Gingerbread truly awful?
Im gonna agree. I have problems navigating back on all gb roms, sometimes it just locks up and refuses to do anything, other times it takes ages to load pages.
I've given up on it and use maxathon browser.
Would be nice if we could use the browser from 2.2

I really hate the default browser on gingerbread, I hate it so much that I went back to froyo because of that.
The part I do not like is where I can't scroll a long page all the way from top to bottom with only one swipe. Samsung for some reason copy that crappy iPhone thing to this phone.
the reason I keep using the default browser not 3rd party one is because it continue to load when the screen is off. Yes, I only have EDGE connection.

I've also had many problems with it before i went to CM7.
Why using default browser?
Dolphin works just fine.
I find dolphin quite slow tho.

YES ITS TRUE
Some Chinese Developers of android mipad device have modded the original ADOBE FLASH 10.1 APP for android and made it compatible for most ARMv6 and ARMv7 ( arm 11 family ) devices.
the app is found to be working on most android devices with ARMv6 and ARMv7 phones like LG OPTIMUS ONE , XPERIA X8 , ZTE blade , Samsung prevail, etc..
Instructions:
1. Download and copy to sdcard.
2. Use a file manager and navigate to the apk, install it.
3. Reboot the phone and all done .
Additional notes:
* Make sure to have "unknown sources" enabled on settings > applications.
* It won't work on Opera Mini.
* Works with both froyo and gingerbread (confirmed).
* Works best with dolphin browser HD

Wait. Does this play well with Flash Lite, and does it work in /system/app?
EDIT: It forces me out of both stock and Dolphin HD browsers every time I try to load any page with embedded flash. It loads the player and buffers, but once it tries to start playing I get sent back to my launcher. No FC, just closes the browser and kicks me back to my launcher.

Just downloaded and installed. Must say it appears to be working so far without any problem. Thanks Mattix for the heads up on this one.
I recommend removing the flashlite plugin now that we can use the real deal.
Edit: I can load sites such as Adult Swim Games without being sent back to the home screen, except there is no hard keyboard so I can't actually play, but when I try loading a video on the YouTube page it loads the embedded flash player and it buffers but if you click on full screen it loads then attempts to play then crashes back to the home screen.

So that's a no-go for video support?
I want my porn without having to tether. Oh! Whoops! Did I just type that?
Sent from my Zio using XDA App
As far as I can tell flash videos are buggy and crash... but as far as your porn I cannot help you on that.
With this modified version of flash 10.1 there should be more versions fairly soon.

I was thinking the same thing. Soon flash will be a mainstay whether Adobe likes it or not.

Yes it requires root... why don't you just root and solve all of your problems?

Ok, I finally rooted using universal androot, but what's the big deal with it? Now what can I do? Shoot me some examples everybody.

You have full control of your phone now, you can use wireless tether to share your cricket service, you can explore the system partition and delete unwanted apps but be careful what you delete or change, you can use terminal emulator if you are familiar with the command line and Linux commands, you can change system settings with something like blade buddy or similar apps, basically root means you have full control to do anything within the OS.

Works awesome. No more Skyfire browser. Running Dolphin Mini now and works like a dream.
Someone school me please. I'm rooted, installed the flash player above, but some sites [like mythbusters/discoverychannel] still say I NEED FLASH PLAYER 10.1.0.0 OR HIGHER WITH JAVASCRIPT ENABLED TO VIEW THIS SITE. Well, I got both so what am I doing/did wrong?
Now I'm so broke i can't even pay attention!
Tried link and says no longer available! Is there working link to it available?

dolphin and flash
I installed the link for flash player 10.2.157.340.apk installed with out a problem. your link above says the Cricket Zio is not supported.
I think maybe I never notice it until now but I just want to be clear. It seems that every broswer I use does this and its annoying. Say that I'm reading a website, if I go home to open another app, when I return to the browser it refreshes the page that it already downloaded. Did browsers always do this?

I've noticed the same behavior of all Android flavors I've played with, 2.1, 2.2, and now 2.3, so yep it's at minimum an android implementation.
I am on cm7 and use the Dolphin HD browser and it does not do that for me. If I hit the back button it will close out the browser and when I open it again it goes to Waugh I have saved as my homepage. But as long as I hit the home button then open another app or many apps, all I have to do is hit the dolphin browser button and I am still on the same page. I also have it set to DESKTOP version as I do not like the mobile versions of websites.

Must likely has to do with how ram is handled. To keep the page it has to stay in the ram which could be needed if you try to open an app

Im on miui with miren browser n I don't get it refreshing.
Anyone else notice that after the GB update you've seemed to have lost the 'back' function for the stock browser?
If you're using the stock browser and try to cycle back through pages by hitting the back arrow key, it now takes you to your home screen - don't seem to be able to cycle back through pages.
EDIT: Only seems to occur in certain sites.
have you tried this with dolphin browser or any other browser?
Haven't installed any other browser. I fooled around a bit after starting this thread and quickly realized that for me, the page back not working was only really occurring while I was browsing here at xda on the web (I've since DL'd the app).
All other pages that I've bookmarked and frequently browse seemed to back up just fine. I assumed it was a function of how this and maybe other forums handled moving within a thread that the stock browser wasn't picking up on - kind of like different pages within a thread look like the same page.
Didn't give it any additional though until today when I noticed someone had reported the same problem in one of the ROM development threads.
For me, it's sort of become a non-issue.
Yes, I've noticed it on the Gingervolt Rom. Are you running stock Gingerbread (rooted or unrooted) or Gingervolt?
Stock unrooted GB. Never rooted the phone.

Does the same thing on Dolphin HD.

Mine just does it randomly. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. I have yet to find a rhyme or reason to it.

I have this issue as well, closing and reopening the browser is a temporary fix.
I was wanting to run the version of the browser that is included in CM9 or 10, I forget which, I tried to force its installation by putting in system apps. It runs, but crashes when entering an address in the address bar, or when deleting from it. I was wondering if anyone out there has found a way to use this version. I want to use it because of the User Agent setting it has.
Any ideas?

I mean the app is usable, but the address matching as you type is what seems to be breaking it.

Well... I placed it in /data/app/ and it opened fine, Google searched fine... But did f/c when editing the address bar.

It works just fine for opening links, but typing an address is a no go. FC. That is why I would love to get the app to work, it is a great browser, and have used it on an old Fascinate for quite some time with absolute success...

Is it just the stock browser in CM9?
I've been running this version (from CM9.1) without any issues - http://www.mediafire.com/?yq6m4exyoh2z308
Omg... thank you that one works great! No more crashes when typing url in. That is exactly what I wanted on my kindle.
