Android :: Slow Browsing With 3G
May 27, 2010
I have a rooted mytouch 3G and I've been using the barnacle tether app for the last few months for internet on my laptop. Just recently I've been playing online poker on my laptop. It worked fine for about a day or so, then things started to get extremely slow, barely being able to load google (taking about a few minutes to load a basic html page). I don't know if it has something to do with using my phone for a connection with the poker clients or if it's just coincidence with the timing of it, I called T-Mobile and they said there are no problems at all with the coverage in my area and to do a Power cycle which didn't seem to help. Does anyone have ANY idea what could be wrong?

I was so happy when I was able to pull myself away from the iphone and really was hoping for great things with my new hero.I must say the hero is great! BUT Im tempted everytime I go online with my Hero to either stamp on it or throw it out the window.I used to surf a lot at home over wifi with my iphone, It was quick always a great connection absolutly no problems.Now i have no iphone and surf with my Hero, must say the worst and most annoying situation from a surfing point of view.I have full bars on wifi connection, yet it is sooo slow. But not only slow I also need to refresh the page i want to view at least 3 or 4 times till the network error dissapears and the webpage is shown, same goes when accessing the market app.Like I said the hero itself is really great, but at the moment for me it is a much more pleasent experience surfing over wifi on the iphone.I thought I was over the iphone groupie phase but it looks like their going to get me back unless maybe theres someone who knows about this wifi problem.

my Moto G is so slow when i try to browse the internet in chrome or dolphin if i'm connected to any WiFi. when i search with Google the initial results come up fast, but then when i click on the page if it is not already cached the blue bar will freeze for 10 seconds, load a little bit, then freeze again for another 10 seconds, then eventually load the page. this doesn't happen at all on 3G. I've done speed tests and they don't seem to be effected by the slow speed on wifi. I've tried disabling wifi optimization, location services, and battery saver, but nothing works.

I am able to find and connect to my Wifi Network at home, but internet connection between my new Android Tablet and Wifi is slow. My apple devices connect to the same router and are able to browser fast, the android tablet also browses fast with other Wifi network. There is something between the combination on the tablet and my wifi router that is making the connection slow (the google homepage takes forever to load so does other sites).
Tablet runs Android JellyBeans 4.1 and Wifi is secured using WPA-PSK (tired AES, TKIP and even open connection)

I have been checking both XDA and this forum about everything on Htc Desire HD. I have not seen a live demo of the phone yet, but so far I love the Sense UI, Android OS, Size and look of the phone. My gf is getting a Iphone 4, I think it�s an awesome phone but don�t like the UI, size or look of the phone. One thing I do like though is the speed in menus and browser. So I have a few questions. I have heard alot of complaints about lag on Desire HD but that it�s been fixed with the USB debug thing. So how is the smoothness now compared to the Iphone? Browsing on the internet seems a bit choppy, is it because of flash? can I turn it off so it runs better?

Pages are taking up to a minute to load. I normally switch to another page until it's loaded but if i want to quickly do something it's a different matter. It's been pretty slow from the start but i was just downloading apps. Now i'm using the web more it's become more obvious. Half the time i just give up! Is this due to Android 1.6 or is web browsing generally slow? Is there a faster browser than the default one or any settings that would improve the browsing experience?

When I originally used my eris for tethering it was fast almost as fast as my wireless. Past 2 days the wireless has been down due to a storm and I was forced to use phone for internet after not using it for months. Its slow almost dial up slow, even tho the phone shows its in 3G the browsing and download speeds are painfully slow. By the way I am using easy tether.

Anyone know what special ports android uses to browse the web? Of course it must be port 80, but there has got be an additional port or something. My web server is accessible via computer browsers but not by android unless I turn off the software firewall. Something about the android connection, the firewall doesn't like.

First and foremost is the internet browser
1.- the zoom sucks you can zoom with gestures and all but the way it does it sucks. if you pinch slightly it should zoom by a small amount. in other world i can not zoom in to cover what i want to, it zoom either way pass were i want or completely zooms out. of course this i think is just a programming issue of not taking into consideration of how big is the pinch. This is frustrating me so much.
2.- when you zoom the browser relays out the entire page. which is completely wrong it should not happen. when say zooming in on a column of text that you think can be better read by zooming in the browser does a re-layout and now my text is all over the place. the expectation is the you are zooming into a small portion of the webpage not that you are changing the dimensions of the page or object you are zooming in (<DIV>,<p>,<SPAN> or which ever). they should stay still and let me get a bigger view of the window that i'm trying to view. the fix here would be to zoom in without the weird re-layout. it has sucked so much that what I'm doing is caring my iPhone just to browser the web and my droid for all the rest.

I know that there are browsers like dolphin or xscope that allow multitouch zoom, but I was wondering about something else. I actually happen to like the default browser better than those two, I really just want multitouch. I'm no developer, but I was wondering how possible it would be to take the default browser, and add nothing to it but the multitouch zoom.

I always see articles on places like Engadget about browsing stats and about how much traffic is from specific devices (or at least specific operating systems).It appears the Evo is showing up as running Mac OS and using Safari. I found that to be odd.

Anything out there that can help keep app browsing secure and safe?Also anything that can be added to the standard browser to put browsing restrictions on without having to turn it on and off with every reboot?

I would like to implement an apps that allow users save the webpage including images. Then the users can view the web page again even there is no network access. However, I found that there is no such related API to do so.

I'm using HTC Dream and trying to read the images stored in the "default" album folder of this phone. But I've yet to found out what's the folder path to those images file. do you know what's the path to that image folder? What would be the path patterns (if any) in other Android phones? I don't need to set any additional permission to access those files, do I? Do you know how I can build a "file browsing" widget in my activity? I've searched and seems like there is no such widget and I've to install app that does file browsing. In any case, how to incorporate that as a file-browsing view in my current activity?

This may be a simplistic question, but one reason I went with a web browser phone is so I can do browsing while in the airport. Is this possible with the phone as it is or do I need to use Wifi? To be honest not even exactly sure what it is used for.

Ever since the update scrolling through pages in the browser has been embarrassingly laggy. Pages that used to scroll smooth as butter from top to bottom now chug along as if you're asking it to load uncompressed hi-def images on the fly.

I am the proud owner of a Hero, and like it! The only issue I have is that I use a website to book golf on-line. There's an icon which gives a list of all the courses. On a standard PC there's a bar on the right side of the list which you slide up or down to acess about 50 courses. On the Hero I can open the list, but it only shows the first 6 courses, and not the bar. For the life of me I have tried everything and I can't find a way to access the "hidden"courses. Does this problem ring a bell with anyone?

For some reason, I am having trouble click on buttons when browsing.
For example, if I type a post on the facebook mobile web site. And click "post" the buttons becomes gren like I have clicked on it but nothing happens! This is also the case with other pages with clickable buttons.
Turning the power on and off, seems to work for a bit, but then it happens again. I couldn't seem to find anyone having these issues for some reason and it's very annoying because I can't make any posts on Facebook this way.Clicking on an actual link works just fine, however.

I'm interested in buying this phone but I'm not sure about the battery life. Can anyone tell me how much the battery will last if used in browsing over 3G? My currently old Nokia 6120 doesn't last more than 1 hour and a half doing that, which is pretty frustrating.

I just got my Evo last week and have been trying to find the setting (if there) so if I'm browsing through apps or on the web and a call comes in, it overrides so I don't miss the call. I've searched online and can't seem to find it.

I've had my DroidX for about 2 weeks now. Last night while browsing it just locked up....no response to any screen or button presses. It did shut off when I pushed the power button, but then would not come back on. I removed the battery for a bit and then it seemed to come back on normally. Has this happened to others? Is this "normal?" Normal like how windows sometimes just locks up?
