Hi all.
I updated my N9005 to the latest firmware and faced no problems while residing in the middle east. However, ever since I came back, I have noticed that clicking on any external links posted on facebook do not open in any browser. It just displays "This web page is not available" and when i click on "MORE" button, it shows "the connection to m.facebook.com was interrupted."
I tried changing the client to desktop to no avail. Then I tried using VPN and sure enough the pages loaded just fine. But on other devices, such as Iphone and tablets, I don't need VPN to open such links. Alternatively, I tried manually adding https:// to links and the page opens successfully. Not only is it irritating, but mind boggling also. At first I suspected my ISP but since other devices connected to the same wifi do not pose this problem, it all comes down to this device.
Any help in isolating and solving this problem shall be highly appreciated.
Btw, I am using stock rom. My apologies if this issue has already been discussed but I was unable to find it.
thanks,

Hello
I'm having problems with the internet browser. It used to function properly but recently it began presenting me with the squares and circles in place of words on all webpages.
Has anyone had similar problems? Or does anyone have a solution?
Thank you
Man.
I'm also experiencing this, for the last week or so, but only when using the quick search box on the internet tab of TF3D which loads pages "designed for mobile use". If the full Opera browser is launched pages load properly. I haven't begun to try and find out more about it yet.
I can't get it to work at all, internet tab or Opera. If you find a solution could you post it please.
Thank you
Anyone else with the problem?
Had the same problem but only when going to a site through the browser search function, if I manually enter the site address then no problem.
Same problem here for a couple of weeks. Thought it was the rom i was using so reflashed another and had the same problem.
Went into settings and enabled plugin's and havnt experienced it again yet. However im sure i tried this before flashing it again. May just be coincidence.
There is more people complaing on a google forum. Though not much info. Google "zeros and squares opera" to find it.
Hi, this started happening for me shortly after I got my phone about 3 weeks ago, I believe this is caused by Google's formatting of the pages, when you use the default search link, google reformats the pages for mobile. It worked at first for me, but then I started getting the squares/circles thing... Don't think it is a topaz/opera issue as after a hard reset it was the same. Figure something is up with google's mobile formatting currently.
If you go to the bottom of a page with the squares/circles etc. you should see the google link, so page is being displayed via google, it should say, "display as mobile or full page" or something like that, if you tell it just to show you full pages then the issue goes away.... but you are not getting the advantage of reduced size pages...

Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone can find an answer to this problem. Well my school has wifi but its thru cisco. And with cisco you need to sign into a security site on the broswer and from there you can enter a username and passcode for the internet. The problem is the google browser or dolphin browser wont even let me get to the security page. it always says' web pafe not available' and the link im trying to go to is http://1.1.1.1
Is there anything i can do to resolve this issue? thanks
also these people are having the same issue..

What ROM are you using?
I have tested this specific bug with Dwang 1.7.1 and had no problems accessing the page.
just using the original tmobile rom. tried using the regular browser and dolphin browser but no luck.
Oh, yeah, you are going to have problems then. I reverted and tested the current original T-Mobile ROM a long time ago and found that it still did not work. This bug is not only on Cisco WCS devices, I have also tested it on an Aruba captive portal. (Both of which I have admin rights to.)
I think the issue has something to do with the type of initial redirect that captive portals use. (Which IIRC is an HTTP 301 or 302.) However, I have not really pursued testing since I have rooted my G1 and use custom ROMs that have fixed this bug.
BTW, this bug has been around since release of the G1.
An easy way to check to see if it is an HTTP 300 problem, is to try the following links in your G1 browser:
http://www.seoconsultants.com/w3c/status-codes/301.asp
http://www.seoconsultants.com/w3c/status-codes/302.asp
Both links should redirect you to the home page http://www.seoconsultants.com
Both links redirect correctly in my G1 browser.
Edit: Ahh, I read that open issue, and it seems to be a self signed cert handling problem. That would make sense. Never mind the stuff above then. However, the solution remains the same. Root your phone, use a custom rom (I recommend Dwang 1.7.1) and enjoy your WiFi.
Hi
Has anyone noticed how the stock android browser "paginates" some web sites. I don't know if that's the correct word to describe it, but I mean when it separates a web site into several pages and you have to click continue at the end to see the rest of the content. Also, when you see the list of open tabs next to the title you see "(1/3)".
I find it very annoying and haven't found a way to disable it. Does anyone know how to do it?
This happens to me using a Galaxy 3, that's why I'm asking in this forum. Could some other user of this phone please confirm if it happens in your phone too?
Thanks.
let me guess. This happens generally when you are using google search and click one of the links.. right?
It happens when using google search, but also when entering the site URL directly. For instance, I just loaded emol.com (local newspaper) and I got the paginated view. I'm also getting it when accessing this very same forum, which makes it almost unusable.
So nobody else has seen this behavior?
I figured this would be a good place to ask, lots of users of this phone. Would you please suggest some other place to post this question if it is not relevant here?
Thanks
Finally, mistery solved. I figured it only happened when using 3G and not when using WiFi. I went to the APN settings and the default APN had a proxy server enabled. I removed the proxy address and now all pages look as they should. So,
it wasn't android browser's fault, it was my network operator's. No wonder I couldn't find anything about this issue.
Sorry for all the annoying posts
Hi, can anyone help me on this.
When i use the internet, and it needs to go to another page or tab, an error message appears that says I have consumed all 16 tabs and should close some if not all. I check and only have a few open. I close all except for the internet, and , its still the same error message and does not make the phone go to the next part of the website I am looking at.
Use to happen once in awhile, but, now always.
Anyone pls assist
Thanks,
Bert

Which mobile browser are you using? Assuming it's either the Samsung stock browser, try in chrome and try downloading Firefox from the play store to see if the error reproduces in other browsers
Edit; when you say you close some "except the internet" are you referencing apps? Because that would be a memory issue and not a browser tabs issue so be sure to check the tabs in your browser, not in your recent apps screen.
Got it
Thank you. I was using the Samsung internet app. When I used chrome, didn't have the problem anymore.

Great, if I was able to help, pressing the the thanks button below my post would be appreciated
P.s I don't think there is an issue with the Samsung Browser itself, it's layout can be quite awkward but there should be a button near the top right that lists all of your open tabs with an option to close them!.
Hi. I'm traveling and having an issue signing into guest wifi sites. I'm not sure what you call it ?.
I click on the available WIFI, I'll use Tampa airport open WiFi as an example. After clicking the WiFi the tablet connects me without issues but I can't use the internet because the page never opens to allow me to accept the terms of agreement. How do I get this page to open? Other devices are not having an issue with the page opening, only this tablet. Sometimes I can type the address into the browser and accept the terms. Sometimes I can't.
Is there something in settings, security, IDK where, that I have to enable?
I see that webview app is disabled by default and can't be enabled. I'm not sure this is related, but mentioning it.
TIA for any help.

I haven't had this issue but thank you for posting how you fixed it. Most don't bother to do that and you could be helping someone years down the line.
