Opens fine on gingerbread
CM7
No issue here. Fusion 1.8
I think the secret is flash. I may be wrong but on 2.1 you did not have it. On 2.2 you do. Set plug ins to on demand in browser settings. Should fix
CM7
Serendipity 6.2 opens it like butter.

How is it when scrolling? Smooth?, choppy? What about the pinch to zoom?

I have run a few roms...cognition, andromeda and now cm7 gingerbread but the browser lag does not seem to go away. This site on eclair used to have very smooth scrolling. I did a google search and have found a few people with the same problem. I have tried different browsers and opera mobile seems to be the smoothest but has a few noticable problems when opening a few pages. Some say that the froyo browser likes to keep your last page in memory at all times so when you hit "back", it is seamless, but im not sure if this is true. Any suggestions or explanations would be greatly appreciated, thanks for the feedback.

Honestly I am not sure what the issue is. First if you have not tried please change your plug in settings to on demand in your browser. That its the only thing imaginable that could be causing an issue. The browser in eclair sucks in comparison to 2.2 and 2.3 it is not even close
Secondly, stock is always an option
4 different people were nice enough to click the link, no one reported any issues.
CM7
Thanks for the feedback

I flashed back to Eclair, all of the laggy scrolling is gone and the phone actually feels more snappy. I know it sounds crazy but it is true, I'm going to update to Froyo and test the browser one more time If it is still laggy I think Eclair is for me for the time being. Such a shame that something that is improving something can wreck it, oh well.

Has anyone tried it on SGS? It is supposed to use GPU accelleration which rocks on the SGS. Unfortunately I am on a business trip and do not have any data and cannot try it. How does it compare to the crappy stock browser?
The hardware acceleration us not implemented yet. Flash does not work. But opera is nice and fast at all. I think the final will be really good.
Ps: In my opinion the stock browser is a really good browser too.
Downloading right now... Will check it out
Its gray for now, can't wait until the full version is out

Uses a lot of memory. Pinch and zoom not all that great. As of now opera mini is better. Hopefully the final version will be good. They have already come out with an update. Haven't tried it after that though.

as the title says, the 2.3 browser seems to be lacking somewhat. Cant get any GIFs to work even with third party apps like opera and miren. (I like gifs, part of the shame of tumblr)
Is this just me? Is there something i'm missing?
and the stock browser only has four pages. Booo!

Im on XXJVO, its not beta, and still not GIF animations in any browsers (stock, opera, dolphyn, skyfire, etc.).
It was ok in Froyo 2.2 and 2.2.1.....
Big mistake and bug in Gingerbread.
Any solution ?
Regards
Yep, i'm on the the newest 2.3.3 I upgraded through odin yet again to see if it was a bug in the 'beta' I got over havong four pages but no.animated gif's is really pisding me off! Admitedly its only because i'm sad and use tumblr. It defo seems to be a bug.

This stuff worked fine on froyo my girlfriends 3 year old I hone has no problem with GIF's.
Fyi opera does display gifs most of the time. Its a buggy browser though. I'm not a happy galaxy s owner atm.

I was think, maybe Flash Player is guilty, but from v10.2 to newest 10.3 version is same, not gif animation in any browser.
If someone will try, i really need animation from this site, but no work on Gingerbread, but on Froyo work:

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.

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?

Anybody. All I need is a yes or no.

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.

Thanks both of you. I was on CM7 so thats probably why I'm now noticing it.

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.
Hi,
I'm fairly new to ICS ROMS and having tried THS ROM and now AOKP, I think that AOKP is much faster and smoother but i have 1 issue with the stock browser(same with other browsers but i prefer stock).
I use a very popular messaging board, similar set up to this in Ireland and would look in a lot of different threads frequently. When using ANY other stock browser on any other ROM it saved the position in the thread so that when you go back to the thread it picks up from where you last were. For some reason this isn't happening on this ROM and i don't know how to go about fixing it. Re-flashing made no difference.
Otherwise a brilliant ROM and 1 i really want to stay on.
Any advice appreciated.
I've been using the Chrome Beta and it's been wonderful.
Not a direct solution, of course, but might solve your issue.
Yeah, hearing good things about chrome. I'll try it tonight as it isn't showing in the market(don't know what google are playing at restricting it's release). I'll get the apk elsewhere.
I'm pretty sure it won't solve my problem but no harm trying.
Hum, from my newbie point of view, that doesn't seem to be a ROM-related problem, but something about browser's cache or cookies... have you had a look to some of its config?
BTW, I didn't hear about Chrome, I'll try it too!
Chrome is force closes on AOKP for me
But i tried it an some other ics rom and its great !!

Dunno if this will fix your issue. But I find the 4.0.4 browser a bit faster.

Thanks for the suggestions lads, much appreciated.
I tried chrome last night, no force closes, doesn't really offer me anything that stock browser doesn't do and sadly doesn't help my issue.
I'll try that browser version tonight trailblazer.
hadkeren, thanks for your suggestion and forgive my ignorance but i don't see the option to clear data in all apps in one go. To do so individually would be painful
It's good to know(i think) that this isn't an issue with everyone(or anyone else) on this ROM but i just find it weird that i didn't have this issue on THS Rom or any gingerbread or froyo rom.
Another issue i have with ICS is no notification vibration but i've given up on that one
I mean clear your data for the browser
It is in:
settings - apps - all

Sorry, i'll put that down to a combination of a loss of oxygen to the brain and work.
It made no difference, cleared cache,history and cookies earlier and cleared data just there
I'll try 4.0.4 browser tonight but i don't hold out much hope. I'll probably try another flash. I won't let this beat me.

Tried this(had to remove link) and yes very fast and smooth but didn't sort my issue. Flashed up to 2.1 beta in the hope it might sort it. NO!
If it wasn't such a great ROM i'd have switched a while ago as this seems like such a trivial issue that should be solved easily
I suppose i could learn to live with it(but i doubt it).
Next stop ICS Slim but i would love a solution before i take such drastic action.
Thanks All.
