HTC Incredible :: How To Fix Browser Without Restarting?
May 2, 2010
After surfing for a while, the browser occasionally has some issues.For example,I'll tap on a button on a form, and nothing will happen.Or I'll do a search, tap go, and no search happens.Powering the Incredible off and on fixes these issues.Is there a faster way?After having the phone for several days longer, I can say that this hasn't happened in days. Not sure what the issue was initially, but lately browsing has been rock solid.

The past two days my INC has randomly restarted itself. Any ideas as to why? I just got the thing Saturday and of course downloaded a ton of apps, but that had never happened. I think the first time it happened was yesterday. Only app I recently downloaded that may be causing the problem is Toggle Settings. Has there been mention of that causing problems at all?

I know there are other threads but this is strange since my phone never ever did this. All of a sudden the last two days my phone has been restarting randomly, mostly like two minutes into using the phone. It doesn't though go to the HTC Incredible screen but rather the HTC Quietly Brilliant, quickly to Verizon Wireless screen and into the OS. I see the CPU doing heavy duty work using all but 100% yet I checked System Panel and I don't see anything using that much usage. Again this has just started the last two days or so. Never before have I had this problem. Anyone else just in the last few days?

This folder includes screen shots that are used for Internet Browser bookmarks. It also includes screen shots of web pages that I did not choose to bookmark. When I clear cache while in "Internet" in "Manage Applications" it does not remove these jpg files that are not being used for bookmarks. When I clear everything while in Internet app (in settings) it does not remove these jpg files either. It also does not remove them from within the HistoryEraser app. The only way I can remove the jpg files is with Astro or when connected to PC. I have to go through them and erase jpgs that I do not want there.
There were 72 jpg files in that directory and they go all the way back to when I got phone (on 4/29). I have only added 5 bookmarks myself during that time. They do not take up a lot of space but I just don't want them there.

I've had this problem since I bought my Droid Inc over a month ago but I haven't posted about it until now.Whenever I type a new URL into the stock browser, if I press any letter, a list of sites pop up that aren't my favorites. Some of these sites are Asian, and I know that others are known spyware sites.What the hell is this stuff? I've never been to any of these sites on my phone, and these aren't my favorites.I noticed this happening the day I bought my Droid Inc and before I installed any third-party apps. Could Google be behind this? Doubleclick is one of the sites that pops up on this thing too.

I'm playing with a Droid Incredible my wife got from her company because I'm thinking of buying one.I do photography and I have a website.The images aren't huge maybe 600 x 800 pixels but that's bigger than the screen resolution of the Incredible so I can't view them on the built-in browser without panning around.A normal PC browser is smart enough to shrink the image to fit the browser window.Also, my wife's iPhone handles this with no problem. How do I get the browser on the Droid Incredible to do that?

What browser is your favorite web browser and why?
Or do you use more than one browser depending on what you're surfing for?
I am personally using the stock browser, but have been thinking of switching and would love to hear your opinions.

There are a couple popular choices out there but which do you have set as your default web browser?
I have all these installed but currently have stock "Internet" as my default.
UPDATE: a few write-in votes have been cast for "xscope"

I'm looking for people's opinions on which browser they think is best for 2.2 and why.I've searched and mostly came up with older threads talking about browsers that let you view flash sites, obviously before FROYO.I've experienced a problem on a couple different sites, using the stock browser, where the webpage continuously reloads,so when I zoom in to read something,5 seconds later,the page reloads and it zooms back out.I've tried stopping the page and 5 seconds later,it still reloads. Very annoying, so I was going to try another browser and see what happens.Any thoughts or comments please?

I just got froyo and noticed when I kill the browser with my task killer it no longer defaults back to the home page when I open it again. Also, the history does not clear. It shows it as cleared, but since I can reopen the browser and scroll back to where I have been browsing it is not deleted.Bug, or something with my phone?Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this because a friend of mine said he was not.

My issue is with Facebook service, it keeps restarting. Each time I go into Running services, it shows it again, When I forcestop it. It will restart 5 minutes later or so. I've gone into facebook and turned off notifications and everything. It's been draining my battery, wondering if you could shed some light? I don't want to use a task killer, had issues with it in the past. I also do not have a facebook widget on any of my scenes

I have an HTC desire with Orange in the UK and up til now it's been pretty fantastic. For the last couple of weeks though, it goes through fazes daily of just switching off mid-use and restarting 5 or 6 times in a row. Sometimes it boots up fully before restarting, sometimes it cuts out mid start-up and goes again....it's rather annoying as I'm sure you can imagine!

After rooting my evo, i installed the ava froyo everything was working but now the phone just keeps restarting every 3 minutes and pc won't recognize, also when charging phone shoes amber led (charging) light but the battery icon won't shows as charging. Try to go back to stock rom but can't because pc does not recognize the evo. When trying to open the command window and sending the code it gives me the error message device not found.

Is the any way to adjust the stock browser to open more than 4 windows at once? If not, will rooting give us that ability?

I do not own an Incredible, but I am a developer trying to support it.Can someone tell me the following. On the HTC Incredible, when you don't have an sdcard in, where does the browser download files to? Possibly /emmc/something/ ? Does this location change when you add an sdcard?On most android phones, the browser downloads to /sdcard/download/, but I since the Incredible has a lot of internal storage and doesn't come with an sdcard by default, I think the location is probably on /emmc. But,I need to what folder.

I have a droid incredible and got the OTA update last night. After the update I could not use my web browser. It will load the page almost to the end and then just go back to my home screen. Also the flash does not appear to be working anymore either I only see green arrows now. I Manually installed flash 10.1 a few weeks before the OTA update.

I was reading about the stock browser storing screen shots on the phone. Someone recommended using Dolphin. So which Dolphin browser do people use? Dolphin, Dolphin HD, or Dolphin License?

I've been reading these forums for a while deciding to trade in my old dumbphone LG VX8300 on an Incredible. As a software engineer, I do lots of study before I commit. So yesterday when I get my new Incredible, I'm shocked to find out that the browser doesn't support animated GIFs! I don't care about the ones with smiley faces poking another smiley face in the eye with a stick, but most of the weather apps use animated GIFs to simulate live radar. That is one of my big uses on the old VX8300 (I do lots of motorcycle riding in the summer and want to know which way the rain is heading)The Weather Channel, AccuWeather, etc. all think they have moving radar images but none of them work. I did find RadarNow in the app store but that wasn't sufficient. I eventually found that WeatherBug Elite ($1.99) has moving radar images (they must use a different technique). I finally found a discussion over at the Android developers list of known issues Issues - android - Project Hosting on Google Code that discussed the issue. The developer has made a change for Froyo for large memory phones like the Incredible to enable animated GIFs. There is a mention of this over in the Motorola Droid forum, but with all the new folks jumping on the Incredible, I thought it might get better visibility here. So here's one thing that Droid doesn't. that the iPhone (and my ancient dumbphone, and Blackberry, and Palm, etc.) does.I just thought I'd share my experience so others can find it later.

Although I have DolphinHD and Skyfire browsers loaded on my DInc, I generally use the default browser. Yesterday, for no apparent reason, the bookmarks would not load...instead I get a Force Close option:
Sorry! The application Internet (process com.android.browser) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try. again.
I tried loading the HTC Bookmarks widget to see if I could grab my bookmarks that way. It claims I have no bookmarks.
So, I go to the market and add the app "Bookmarks to SD". I use it to transfer those supposedly non-existant bookmarks to the SD and then I sync them to the DolphinHD browser. Voila...the bookmarks are fine and working in DolphinHD.
So, the default browser is pretty useless now since it won't let me retrieve bookmarks and I'll just use Dolphin from now on.

I went to the local VZW store to play with one. It looks as if the default web browser is limited to 3 windows, is this the case? I know stock android can handle up to 8. Is there a way of allowing more than 3 windows? or is it just a setting that was set on the store's demo phone? I know I can use an alternate browser like Opera or Dolphin (and I very well may) But isent the default browser the only one that can use the "Flash Lite" that HTC added? (Something I want to take advantage of until real flash comes)
