I'm having an issue with chrome on my honor 9 lite.
For some reason chrome and the system web viewer app are very pixelated (looks like 720p with no anti-aliasing). What's weird is that this only happens when the screen resolution is set to FHD+, it actually looks cleaner and clearer when the resolution is set to HD+ (low). Smart resolution is switched off btw.
I've attached two screenshots, one from chrome and the other from Microsoft Edge. Edge is rendered correctly, chrome looks a mess.
Other browsers aren't affected, just chrome and the system web viewer. Has anybody else notice this issue? I've only seen one report about it when searching Google, but that was for the Huawei P Smart (which is basically the same model).
facing the same issue.
Install Chrome beta to fix it, standard Chrome is messed up the fonts look awful i thought i was going blind lol.
I reported the issue in feedback.
Installing chrome beta, and setting it as my default web view from developer options solved the issue for me, even con chrome stable, for some reason.
Also, with the last system update (the one that brings face unlock) chrome stable is always in 720p mode, no matter what’s set as default.
Facing same problem here
Solution
Turn on developer set the smallest width( initially it is 360) to 401 or 411
(Iam using honor 9 lite) . Then launch chrome
Hope it helps.

I've been running stable CM10.1.3 on a couple of HD+ tablets. I have noticed a weird video glitch in the web browser on several web sites. It most definitely has to do with pages that have pictures (or some sort of image) on them. What happens is the picture gets kind of magnified but not exactly, it is more like a banded blur (about 1 inch wide) which runs the length of the screen. This band always has a part of an image in it which looks like it is being magnified somehow.
This is annoying and makes the site pretty much unusable. Has anyone else experienced anything similar to this?
I tried using Dolphin instead and get random program closures with it. So the stock browser actually seems to work better.
Well, I've upgraded to 10.2 nightlies and still see the same issues.
One thing that might be coming into play is that I have changed my screen dpi to 320. Does anyone else see this?
Also I do have flash installed, but don't think this is flash related.
Firefox's graphical performance on this tablet is bizarrely poor. Scrolling is like a slideshow on any vaguely complex/graphical page. This is the case both with Firefox, and its latest Nightly build. Has anybody found any solution or filed a bug for this? The high resolution screen may play a part in this, but performance is far worse than the Nexus 10, which has the same resolution display and far slower hardware.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Contact the firefox devs and tell them. They should be the people fixing it, Quote the stock browser and chrome being much faster.
Firefox beta runs fine on mine. For example, CNN or Yahoo News scrolls smooth to me.

Yeah, this browser is supposed to be one of the best, but on the TF701 it is really buggy and laggy... hopefully they will fix the issue. Right now I'm using stock and Opera, occasionally Chrome
I just thought i would share with you guys a fix i have been looking in to since installing the new LPX13D preview a few days ago.
Quit a lot of videos that are viewed inside of browsers try to use the vp9 codec, and by the look of things it is not yet fully supported (both in chrome and the android /framework itself).
I have spent hours of my time trying to figure this out, simply because it was just bugging me. I could have easily just watched the video in the YouTube app itself which seems to work just fine.
This fix is assuming that you use the chrome browser on your device.
Open up the browser and type in to the address bar chrome://flags
Next, find the option "Disable media source API" and press enable so it now says disable.
Now find the option for "Enable GPU rasterization" and set it to "Force-enabled for all layers"
That's it, now you can watch and enjoy your videos without the green/purple tint overlaying them.
Thanks! It worked like a charm
Awesome. Worked like a charm. Thanks.
permanent fix
Is there anyway that there is a more permanent fix for this. I am on CyanogenMod 12 nightlies and I still have that problem...
Thank you so much for this fix! Too bad this does not work inside feedly where I still get the pink tint in embedded videos
Having an issue and not sure if its a Chrome 39 issue or Lollipop issue and was looking for some help or some people to test.
When you open a embedded YouTube link in chrome it opens the mobile YouTube web view in another tab instead of opening the YouTube app. I tested the same link on my Note 4 and it works properly, so I'm not sure were the issue is.
Example:http://www.theverge.com/2014/11/14/...-and-kings-divergent-insurgent-bosch-and-more
In the embedded YouTube view if you click the title in the embedded view it should open the YouTube app instead it opens another tab with YouTube web view.
I have already cleared defaults, cache and date on both YouTube app and chrome app to verify that is not the issue.
Any suggestions would be appreciated or I guess confirmation that this is happening to other people so I can file a bug report.
same issue for me
same issue on nexus 5, lollipop, chrome 39
I also have cleared defaults and did factory reset but it did not work
Works as expected on my N5. It plays in the current tab unless you hit the YouTube link in the upper left corner.
Same issue here with a Nexus 4.
I noticed sometimes it works (i.e. from a google search) sometimes not (like in the link posted by the op)
I'm having the same issue on my Nexus 5. Instead of opening videos in the app, it's sending me to the mobile YouTube page in the browser. Cleared app defaults in YouTube, for Chrome that button is greyed out.
i'm having this same issue on my nexus 6. its pretty annoying
I noticed the problem is fixed when you deactivate "merge tabs and apps". It is connected with the new tabs in multitasking feature.
yup noticed that too.. but i want to keep my tabs merged with recents... i don't know if this is by design or an oversight. i'm hoping google isn't thinking that opening in a new tab is just as good as opening in an app.
Hi, whatismyscreenresolution.com says I have only 1280x800 resolution on a TF701T. 'wm size' says 2560x1600.
Does any of you know how to get device resolution in Chrome? Is it even possible?
One other thread here (about nexus and chrome) mentions pixelratio; this can be tweaked in Firefox, but I'd like to have more system-wide solution or at least one that works in Chrome too.
I don't think it's possible. Try using another browser
