The android browser does not keep me logged in. Whenever i close the browser, it logs off sites I was logged into and so very annoying. I have had this problem since I did the software update throught the settings. The Firefox or other browsers don't give this problem. But i find the android browser simpler and better to use. How do I fix it? I obviously tried clearing cache and passwords and all the options in there.*
I'm using a galaxy tab 8.9''.
Chrome

Have you tried the chrome browser? It is overall similar to the android browser (thanks google!). It may help keep you logged in.
Hello Guys,
I have not really posted much on here, but i could not find, under the Experia Z1 device, about the Locked Book Marks that Bell Canada sets up in the devices on Chrome Browser. ( If this is not in the correct section, please do move it )
My Question: Is there any way to delete the "pre-installed" Book Marks that the provider installs.
Its just like the Bloatware that Bell installs on their Android devices, but in this case, the pre-install Google Chrome browser has "pre-installed" bookmarks that i would like to remove.
I never had these on my Google account till i got this new Phone yesterday. I can long press any bookmark folders and delete them, but this "Chrome bookmarks" folder i cannot remove. It also does not sync with my Google Chrome browser on my PC that is linked to my Google account. So i cannot manage that "folder" from my PC.
So, from what i can see, i cannot find a way to remove them.
I have added a screen shot showing the "folder" that i am speaking of if anyone wonders what im talking about.
The bottom folder, "Chrome bookmarks" is the bookmarks I cannot remove.
Anyone have options for this or ideas to remove the?
Wow... For mine I have a bunch of Sony bookmarks - also cannot be removed. Custom bookmarks that I added can be deleted (Long Press). Tried the same thing on the Sony ones and the option to delete is absent from the menu...
I was going to suggest deleting them from the Chrome Browser if your Desktop is synced up, (Other Bookmarks -> Mobile Bookmarks) - but I guess they don't show up there either.. The Sony ones don't...
Yes, any custom book marks i can modify and delete from my phone or my google account on chrome browser on the PC. but those "Bell" added favorites are not modified able at all or delete-able.
Its just annoying that every time i open the google browser app, all i see are those Fav's that are not mine!
If anyone could find a way, it would be helpful.
( I have tried apps to remove fav's, but does do not work at all. those Fav's stay there anyway )

Found a potential fix - I have now removed the Sony bookmarks by disabling the app listed here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2284418
and Asus version here (same procedure)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1856425
Then I cleared the cache from Chrome and rebooted the phone.

Thanks. This did the trick!
hi all,
i bought a new s10 a couple of weeks ago and after setting up everything and installing all of my apps which come from the playstore I am randomly receiving spam whenever i unlock my phone or during the use of whichever app.
what happens is that either chrome or (after i have uninstalled chrome) the samsung browser came in front and opens some **** websites..
i hope someone can give me some advice/hint where to look at, before i have to resignate and start by scratch.
what i already tried, is to uninstall a lot of apps i could have imagined to be the culprit and i also installed things like airpush detector, hoping they could find something.
PS: sorry if posted this thread in the wrong section. did not know where to put at all.
thank you and regards

problem solved.
malware found and deleted.
I found this article...
What you have to do is… go to the Settings followed by Application Manager or Apps here you will find a list of all the installed apps in your android phone. So scroll downwards and you will find an Unnamed App with no thumbnail installed in your phone… most probably this app appears at the last of the list. Just uninstall this app and you are all set. All thing become normal and avoid installing apps from any of the unknown resources.
Here is the full page.

Something was not right, for me, when scrolling in browsers and play store. It was laggy as hell. In other apps like facebook, tidal, instagram, youtube it was fluid and fast. But not on browsers. Tried all, chrome, opera, firefox, bromite, but all was stuttering like crazy. Play store also. I tought there are few rougue apps, twilight theme, fluid nav gestures and smart files manager, but I was so wrong. I also blamed the LG UI skin, but again was so wrong! So how did I resolved?
Guide - possible for any LG out there:
1. Remove SIM
2. Factory reset your phone in the way that doesn't require Internet to go through activating the phone. If you cant do this, it will fail. You should NOT put the email account. (I did reset from phone settings, not by keys. Also remove phone security such as pin, password, face id etc for this to work - just select unlocking the phone by sliding up)
3. DO NOT connect to internet, do not insert SIM.
4. Settings - apps - show system apps also.
5. Disable, remove permissions, set modify system setting to NO and draw over other apps to NO for all korean bloatware (screenshots attached) and for Google play services, google play store, google, and google service framework.
You must do this for each app. Example in screenshots.
6. Connect to wifi. Do not put your email in play store or gmail. Not yet.
7. As soon as connected slide down the notifications pannel. A pop up will apear after few seconds with Google trying to update some libraryes!!! Hit CANCEL!!!
8. Restart and connect with your email on Play Store. Disable asap app updates.
9. Your contacts won't sync now. Don't worry, its normal, you just removed some permissions.
10. Update and install all your apps from play store.
11. Re-enable that 4 google apps, give permissions to all for contacts, phone, wifi etc, enable also draw over other apps and modify system settings for these apps.
12. Insert SIM.
Enjoy! Hope it works for you all, V40, 30, G8, G7 etc
Weird, but its like I have stock vanilla now. Rocket!
It seems that with every restart this rogue korean app pop up asking for access, even though i have disabled and removed all of its permissions. Attached screenshot.

Hi! Does this really fix the problem? I'm having similar behavior and I think it's no normal. I will try this to see if this fix it.
Which bloatware I should disable and which I should not? Korean version. Thanks

Firefox ver. 68.1.1 set as default browser on Verizon Galaxy S10 auto starts frequently and loads 2 or 3 tabs. One tab is always Amazon. How do I stop this?
I have signed out of Amazon and have tried Force Stop on Firefox but no success.
Maybe some malware / adware you've installed with another app? Try scanning your phone with Malwarebytes or similar...and take a look over some suspicious apps on your phone.
Mostly, Android doesn't support autostart by itself, so maybe an app starts a service which opens URLs. Did you try it with a different standard browser?
