Chrome beta not working - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everybody!
i m on icssgs 4.1 with devil 14.2 kernel and everything is going fine except that google chrome keeps on FCing everytime i open it. (I m not in US, maybe this could be useful in solving the prob).
The first time i installed the app it worked for 2 minutes then i closed it and never worked again, i ve tried clearing cache and data reboot, clear dalvik cache and cache partition from recovery but nothing worked..i tried to reinstall it but nothing..i saw that also some of you have the same problem..any idea on how to solve this?

Hey, I had a similar problem. Ironically enough it stopped force closing when i switched to Semaphore's ICS 0.8.0 kernel. I don't think it really specific I just found it works for me now

hi, i believe we need to wait few weeks for a better and stable version. i think it will be better than opera

I have the same. Opera also just open and close.

Thnks..yes we should wait a stabler version but it would be nice to try it and i see a lot of people don t have any prob so there should be a way..
Regarding semaphore 0.8 how is it?comparison with devil?maybe i could try it especially since the reboot-when-plugged bug is fixed..but devil 14.2 is sooo goood

i really loved devil as well, I am in the process of really testing out semaphore although i liked stratosk's older kernels too... i will let you know when I get a better perspective on it
EDIT
Have it working perfectly on ICSSGS 4.2 and semaphore 0.8.0, all syncs work as well (i.e. with my laptop tabs)

any fix available now?

I'm on Chrome Beta as a default browser, very fast , synchronizing with both PC and Laptop. Made browsermark benchmark and result is 91095 which is pretty high.
ICSSGS 4.1
Devils kernel 14.2 LED

Doesn't work
Doesn't work for me either (ICSSGS RC4.2, Semaphore 0.8.0).
Something you did made it work?
Maybe freezing the stock browser? (tried, didn't work for me)
EDIT:
WORKING!
Uninstalled and reinstalled. It's WORKING!

Ok now with 4.2 and devil 14.2 for no apparent reason it works..but it s super laggy and slow and it also stays opened in the background after opening it..is it normal?

I am using team ics sgs rc4.2 with devil 1.0 kernel. Now chrome working perfect and quiet smooth.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

After a while it s now smoother..but still less than opera to my eye..and a bit slower..let s see the new releases!whats your opinion on speed and smoothness?the sync with desktop browser is super cool and perfectly working btw

I can't get it to work on teamhacksung's build 16. Is there any way to fix it?

try to wipe and reinstall

my experience on cm9. /datadata partition is too full.try moving some of your larger apps to SD card, reboot should work good.

[Q] JVT Web Browser lag

Hi everyone
Recently I have been facing some web browser lag with JVT firmware. I am using galaxian kernel, and have tried to switch between many kernels to see if the web browser lag gets fixed, but nothing worked. The problem is that about 3/5 times I use the web browser, any website other than google is very laggy. The entire page is filled with checkered boxes, and when I swipe across the screen it takes many seconds to register the touch. Phone becomes very sluggish and the only *trial* fix is to force close the web browser, start it again and pray that it doesn't lag.
Also on a similar note web browsing used to be perfect on 2.3.4 JVQ, and I really don't see why it is so terrible on JVT which is supposed to be better.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Ok browser lag.. I dont have any try a reinstall of ur rom.

So no one else is having this issue?

Chrome Beta App for ICS users

For those captivate users who are running ICS, just a heads up that Google Chrome Beta is in the Market.
Chrome Beta Link
Market says it's not compatible wit my phone! Running Doc's v2 (which is awesome). I found a random .apk online for the beta and it just force closes. Anyone else unable to use Chrome on their ICS Captivate?

Running on THS build 15 no prob here
I also have it running on Team ICSSGS 4.1 release. Its fast but a little buggy. Ive had it force close a few times today.
Im running in ICSSGS 4.1.
Seems buggy. Force closes and takes long to load. Stock browser seems fine. Just thought Id share anyway.

Same boat here. Stock browser/UI flys on 4.1 but chrome is still a work in progress.
Running it on weui 6.6
Running it on THS ICS. Very slow to load initially but speeds up once open but takes up a TON of space. Back to stock browser for me until it lightens the load and flies like it does on PC
A bit sluggish and takes up plenty of room, but the features are totally worth it
Sent from my CM9 ICS i897 Captivate
Works 100% fine for me on THS B15, now my default browser.
Just Installed so far so good
Thanks for the heads up on this app.

CM7.2 Vs stock rom and questions

did u know if in cm7 for lg optimus 2x the xt9 for greek language is working ?
Gives anything better from the stock rom (if you note that the crup lg puted donest annoy me) ?
and if it has crashes , no idea why it might be cause by my task killer that is in auto killingmode
Is it easy to move my apps and data to the cm7 ?

I use CM72 and love it. It's so much better and stable. Kernel I use ETANA loc. It boosts CPU speed to merely 1.2GHz. Very stable and rock solid. No crashes so far. GPS locks in seconds. RIL 725 from v20d ASIAN version since I'm in Indonesia. It's been much better than other RIL so far.

1. Install a different Keyboard. I highly recommend SwiftKey but there are other great keyboards too. This shouldn't be an issue.
2. Did you install the gapps for CM7.2? This installs Google applications such as the Market, Gmail, Talk, etc.
3. Use a different application for that. I use GoBackup to backup that stuff. There are probably much better apps for that but as long as it works I can't complain.
4. You should relax a bit, you do sound a little bit angry.

GoBackup isn't better than Titanium backup but you can backup your contacts etc. on there. You just have to restore the backup once you flash cm7.2.
Why doesn't Google Play work? Either you installed the wrong gapps or you did something wrong while installing cm7. Try the following gapps; http://cmw.22aaf3.com/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip
You don't have any accounts? Then add a Google account. Once your phone boots after installing the gapps it should ask you to add a Google account. Just follow the steps. Once that's done start the Market once and close it. It'll take a few minutes eventually to update itself to the Play Store. Once the icon changes you're ready to use Google Play.
Cm7.2 IS gingerbread. It's based on GB 2.3.7.

did you follow the instructions to wipe all before flashing? u must flash gapps too. Keyboard, I'm using swype and swiftkey. Swiftkey has greek if I'm not wrong. Not sure about swype. Never liked the stock keyboard anyway.
My contacts work flawlessly and even sync with friendcaster's contacts. Titanium also works great. I keep changing back and forth between CM72 and Paranoid Android. But for everyday, I use CM72. If I want to try ICS custom rom, I use PA. I backup n restore nandroid regularly. As for the data and the apps, I use titanium to backup and then after flashing new rom, I restore back from titanium. Everything works great. Except that CM72 is not ICS. I luv ICS.

That's strange. Why do they crash? They're not supposed to crash at all. I think you did something wrong while installing your ROM or the Gapps. Have you tried fixing the permissions? You can do that in the ROM Manager app or in the recovery menu.

I use CM7.2 with the Etana stock kernel and love it.
I have one and only one gripe - When I press the power button after the phone is in idle, it takes 1-2 seconds before my lockscreen appears. This lag can be quite annoying but otherwise the phone performs great.
Does anyone else experience the delay when waking up the phone from idle?

No. I didn't experience that. But sometimes I need to clear the memory. I use ics theme from go launcher that has memory management. Can't remember the name. When the memory is dark red, I just press broom icon to clean up most memory. Then it works fast again.

You can set the maximum "screen off" CPU speed in apps such as PimpMyCPU and MyrtOTF. That'll most likely fix your problem. Setting it to 216MHz for example consumes less power but your screen needs a bit longer to turn on. Set it to a higher value and you'll be able to turn your screen on quickly. If that's not the case, check whether your RAM is sufficient or not. Use a task killer to clean up your RAM a bit.

Important note; do NOT restore the calendar app, etc. via TitaniumBackup! That causes massive crashes. I bet that's your issue.
No, SwiftKey isn't free but still the best keyboard imho. That was just a recommendation, you can get a different keyboard of course.

You can't restore it via Titanium. You'll have to look for a port but there are so many better keyboards than LG's stock keyboard. Just check some out on the market.

Opera browser doesn't like Galaxy note anymore?

My note is running official jellybean rom, unrooted, recently after updating to the latest version of opera browser (ver. 14) from play store, I am facing a weird problem. I charge my battery with the phone off. After I power on the device opera disappears by itself from my phone as if never installed. It has already happened twice. Anybody else faced similar issue and any solutions?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
Just like me. I'm running JB neat rom rooted in a samsung SII and opera dissapears itself magicaly. While it is running, drain my battery like a hell and i have FC. With titanium i've restored old version until a fix appears. New Firefox is a good alternative
Enviado desde la quinta galerĂ­a.
I read some post but i dont remember the addres...
Opera browser seem dont match with GN...
I dont know why...
But someone report that they got downloading problem when they use opera to download...
the newer version of opera i guess is built for an optimum performance on 4.2. Yet as the version is still new, the bugs would be ironed out soon. anyway the newer version is a major step forward and it works very fine on my 4.2.2 supernexus rom on the note.

[Q] CM 10.1 runs very slow and apps keep closing/crashing

I just recently got a nook hd+ and rooted it, I did three full wipes for safe measure using TWRP wiped everything but the sdcard prior to installing cm-10.1.3-RC2-ovation.
I noticed it had a good amount of lag when switching home screens, opening apps, opening the app drawer, recent apps ect.
And apps would run slow and close/freeze on me, for instance I was on chrome entering in a url and everything would freeze for a sec then inputs what I entered, and with only three to four tabs open and it keep closing on me, even the stock browser.
Also when I have any background apps running like say iHeartRadio playing in the background and say Facebook in the foreground after about 20 to 30 seconds sometimes instantly iHeartRadio will close with no errors or FC popups.
I am now running cm-10.1.3-ovation (Stable) since its release, did a clean installation (full wipe) and still having all the same problems,
Is this a known issue? Did I do something wrong? Anyone else experiencing the same?
Any help is very much appreciated
I have same issue....

I have had some problems, but most of them seem to be caused by chrome. Chrome clearly has stability issues as evidenced by the near daily updates. The browser that comes with CM works quite well.

So I removed chrome and wiped both dalvik cache and cache also used SD Maid, but still experiencing the same issues.
This thing runs so slow it doesn't seem right, I mean my hp touchpad runs loops around this and it's also running 10.1 not overclocked and it doesn't crash and hang all the time
I think with me being a noob at rooting I must have done something wrong when I rooted,

I actually have two 16gb models one with CWM other has TWRP, both have the same issues, is the xperia rom a stock android-like or a Sony-like rom? Do you think it is stable enough for everyday use?

I did when I first installed CM, but haven't really noticed it as of recently, plus I use hackers keyboard from the play store, not sure if it was the stock keyboard or it just started working better over time (if that's possible :-\)
