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.
Why is the Facebook app too slowwwwww?
Is there any way to correct this?
Thanks
Mine runs just fine. Could the problem be with the speed of your network connection?
It slow even when i use wifi...
Also in 3g

Hey Guys
Running Vegantab-B5.1 and tried using the xda app from marketplace to browse the xda forum but i find shortly after i log in that it crashes on me. Does anyone else have teh same issue?
BAM
App does not work on tablet!
Two alternatives, DolphinHD browser gives a nice experiance, and tapatalk works well if you really want an app.
I have the same problem. Thanks for the tip about Tapatalk - I will check it out.
I also have the same problem on my Droid. I find dolphin HD the best experience. Not crazy about tapatalk.
Yeah I think we're all in the same boat regarding the XDA app, I agree with both suggestions above, Dolphin HD and Tapatalk Pro are great alternatives. Tapatalk is fast and minimalist in it's appearance (but plenty of features), where as Dolphin HD gives you a near desktop experience, just depends on what you prefer.

I miss the XDA app. I got so used to using it on my HTC Magic. Hoping for a fix at some point.
Edit: the premium xda app doesn't crash as often. Still can't log in but it is a very minimalist and add free way of viewing xda. Been using it lately to read very long threads and older threads I just want to digest and not respond to.
Same here force close when trying to login - vegan 7 exp
Yep, force closed on Tnt 4.04 and Vegan 5.1.1.
Force closes on Stock ROM as well
XDA app is based on Tapatalk. I got annoyed with the FCs and went with Tapatalk. The experience and UI is mostly the same, just a few more taps to get to what you want once you've set up your favorites.

Same here. VEGAn 5.1.1, FC on login. I was rather disappointed.
Its a known bug and I'm not sure there are plans to fix it. You know though, we do have full internet on these bad boys. I prefer that over the app. The app is perfect for my phone with it's small screen. With 10 inches the real thing is better.
Can anyone open this page with there stock browser with no lag? If so tell me your secret when on eclair I could be pretty much lag free but now on froyo it lags.

Opened pretty quick for me on stock froyo rom. I am runjing the OverStock v1.1 kernel however, but it hasnt seemed to affect browsing.

Opens fine on gingerbread

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

Serendipity 6.2 opens it like butter.

How is it when scrolling? Smooth?, choppy? What about the pinch to zoom?
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
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.
Hi im currently on cassies LA3 but the browser loses its smoothness after i visit 5-6 websites! Same with stock LA3! Is there any other rom ( custom or stock ) with a more stable and smooth browser?? Im using the phone's browser a lot but this is very irritating...

Have you not considered just installing a different browser instead of the one that came with the ROM? Try Dolphin HD or Opera?

Good luck! For me, Dolphin looks great so I use it when on WiFi. Then I use Opera 'Mini' when I'm on mobile data since it apparently loads faster because they process it in their servers or something like that.
BoatBrowser or its lite.
Skyfire is also good.
Too much features mean too much battery.

I find the Opera browser to be the best and smoothest, not the 'mini' for the Note, dolphin second.
