Can not use browsers. - Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have installed a ROM to my Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 7.0" LTE -T235. After it booted up i realised whenever i open the internet or download chrome, when i open it, it does not connect to the websites but loading forever.
Any ideas?

Duck Duck GO works.

You can reset network connection. You are using mobile data or WIFI. You can change dns server.
Do you get ip address when you connect to internet.
on browser when you write website name. You can see loading process. What error you get.

I tried using WIFI and Mobile data as well, neither worked. It simply says the page doesn't respond you can either wait or close it. I believe No other errors, only loading forever.

You can reset browser to default setting. You can uninstall and reinstall browser.
Your internet is working fine.
You can see website loading process at the lower left corner of browser.

Stock web browser force closing???

So I fixed my battery issue, but now web is just closing on its own. Damn I suck, sorry guys gigantic noob. I don't want to download another browser cause I honestly don't mind the standard browser. I've rooted and done the GPS thing.
Please, help out a struggling peon???

Closing as soon as it opens or after some use? If the former, is your home page set to Google.com with location access enabled?
It's an Android software problem imho. I was just entering a reply in a different xda forum USING OPERA and before I could finish the f'n browser just f'n closed on me. Didn't save where I was browsing or anything.
Has happened to me several times and I don't think it's only the stock browser.
Yeah, google is set as home page and location finder is on.

o noticed that with the lag fix i applied, the browser freezes up or just wont load all the way. I removed the lag fix and everything works fine. I don't even know if there is a way to delete the cache on the ext2 partition. cache cleaner doesn't fix it so it just builds up and builds up

I bet that's your problem. To fix it, try to get into settings before the page finishes loading. Clear location access, and until Samsung releases a fix, don't allow Google.com to have location access.
If you really like the local search feature, try "places directory" from the market in the mean time.
this happened to me everytime i tried to go to flash intesive websites. it wasn't too often though, i ended switching to xscope is the best browser i have used on a mobile device(personal opinion).
give it a try.
stock, dolphin and skyfire all crash on me if i go to some web pages with flash. Turning off use plugins in the settings fixes it.

Web browser keeps closing

This is my second vibrant and I have noticed that after browsing web for s small amount of time the browsers keeps closing suddenly and returning to home screen... This happened on my first vibrant as well... Is anyone else suffering from this issue or knows a way to fix this?

Yes this happens, hopefully they will fix it.
There are two options to remedy the situation for now.
1st, go into your browser settings and uncheck plug-ins.
Personally this didn't work for me
2nd option which works flawlessly. The second option is to visit desktop versions of websites. For example, if I visit mobile version of google, it just randomly exits. So what I did is set my homepage to the full desktop version. Since google is my homepage, i went into settings, and typed out the full path for google desktop view into my start page settings.
Again, if your browser randomly closes, try visiting full page views.
I've also noticed this is linked to the GPS issue. Some sites try to get your location. If the site starts trying to find your location, and your gps is bust, the browser just exits.
you could try a 3rd party browser like dolphin or skyfire.

It has been confirmed that on the Mobile version of Google, the "nearest location" check activates the GPS which crashes the browser.
Turn off the GPS. Open a webpage to Google search and finger "Classic" which is half way down the page. This will switch you to the original Google site so that its not trying to get your location when you open a browser window. If a site is trying to use your location it will happen, but in my experience it has only been on mobile sites using location tracking.
There is a setting to turn off - allow websites to request access to your location. Would that help?
This isn't necessarily a location settings issue. It could be a flash issue. When visiting some pages with flash content, the browser will suddenly close and return you to the homescreen. If this is the case, it will happen every time you visit a particular page, and it will also happen with skyfire and Dolphin HD (at least on the 2 phones I have tried them on). Only option to fix this problem is to disable plug-ins in the browser settings.
Good Luck.

internet on desire hd not working

hi all, browsing web pages on my desire hd via 3g network has became a no go. it works fine with wifi. weird thing is though the mobile network is working, ive done a speed test, all my widgets update and using the market is ok but when i bring up dolphin browser hd or the original internet app the progress bar is right at the start then it disappears and it stops trying to load the page, weird
anyone else seen this? not tried a reset yet (would like to avoid). ive turned the phone off and removed the sim but didnt think that would help seeing as though the 3g is working
cheers all
UPDATE - re-installed browser still nothing, installed firefox and it works ok, but dolphin and the stock net app still dont work
Some times ago I have similar problem in Poland.
But this was a problem with the network, not with the device.
Try to change for the while only for gsm, reeboted and back to the dual mode.
Seems like a login issue in network.
If it works in firefox, go to the settings, applications, manage applications, "all" tab, find dolphin browser and the regular browser (called simply "internet" I believe) and press the button that says "clear data". That will reset the apps. You will lose any bookmarks or passwords though.
So inspite of title, really what you have is a problem with Dolphin HD and browser, as Raze suggests try clearing the app data and caches and see if that helps.

Browser defaults to mobile instead of desktop

How do I get my defy to always display websites in desktop format? I want desktop to be my default settings so that all sites load this way and never realize that I am surfing the web from a mobile phone. I am using the default browser and do not want to (and should not have to) download a new browser.
What I did: I went into my browser, went to about:debug, went to UA string, and changed my option to desktop. However, most pages still load the mobile sites.
Does anyone know how to fix this? My phone is rooted.
Also, I have a tmobile bookmark and it is displaying as locked. How would I unlock and delete this bookmark?

Here's what I tried. Open browser, go to settings > advanced > user agent and selected Desktop. I then opened a website which has an android app but it opened up the website instead of redirecting me to get the app. I then changed the setting back to Android, restarted the browser and tried the site again and this time it took me to the app page. I'm using quarx CM9 on red lens defy.

I do not have an option in settings for "advanced". Are you using a default browser?
Here's a quick guide how to set the browser to show desktop versions of websites. Images are from Honeycomb 3.2.

Chrome download issues

Can not download or save images through chrome. If I long press and click save image its like i pressed nothing at all and the downloads folder is empty. Is their a setting I'm missing? I've tried uninstalling updates and reinstalling.
This isn't an only an Angler issue, this is just how they've changed the Google search app, unfortunately, and it's upsetting.
Does that mean I need a new browser?
