Why not? Screen space, don't switch much, or something else?

Do you use the stock browser, or one of the others but with tabs disabled?

Stock. I like my browser to be as invisible As possible. I only o csionaly use more than one window at a time on mobile.

 

Ideally I'd like to not even know I'm using a browser, and stock manages this most of the time quite well.

I'm having nothing but trouble with all 3 of my browsers today. Tried getting to the site multiple time and it just locks up. Had to pull my battery twice already. Surely there has to something better out there?

 

Also I noticed in the advanced settings or the Moreno browser you can change user agents. Does that only effect how the browser reports to a server or does it also change rendering agents?

I don't care much for the tabbed thing on my mobile. I'm not usually multitasking on the phone so it's not a bigger seller for me.

Meant to say others probably too but couldn't be bothered to type more on my phone earlier. Not really sure if it crashes more with 2.3 while editing text but the cursor placement is definitely troublesome on 2.3.

 

I just use the stock browser, and not the HTC modified one. I find Dolphin takes up a little too much screen space and found the side bits annoying when scrolling sideways.

It's gotten especially worse since the text selection changes landed in Android 2.3 for me.

Can you expand on that bit?

Whilst I haven't got any objective proof, I think I would say that I've had more crashes since 2.3.4 got installed, compared to whatever I had on it when I first got it (either 2.3.1 or 2.3.2).

But I'm unsure if you're referring to the 2.3.4 upgrade, or the change from 2.2 to 2.3.

Prior to 2.3 (the feature turned up in 2.3 according this), text was selected by tapping and dragging your finger over text you wanted to select. It was completely unusable on touch screens, but I can't recall having problems with the browser crashing using it.

I don't have any proof that it is the cause, but as you said it just seem like the browser is most prone to crashing when position the caret or trying to select text to copy and paste.

Whilst that could certainly explain some of my crashes - probably over half - it doesn't explain them all.

Sometimes I get it when pressing outside of the text box (though that could involve tidying up the caret I guess), and twice today I had it when pressing the "go" button - I can't get that to select text in any way (unless I first do menu>select text).

I wonder if there's crash logs anywhere that might provide stack traces.

Might be able to see it with logcat (from adb shell / terminal), but filtering the background noise might be hard to do.

When did it become the norm for me to pay the usual price for something and then have to put it together?

 

This pisses me off!!!!!

Is it a robot? Or a very small-winged aeroplane?

How quaint you colonials are with your gas-powered campfires. All sitting round of an evening after a hard day on the prairies shooting negroes and disposessing natives, sharing the songs and tales of the old country over a cup of fermented bison milk and a roasted kangaroo.

I have never understood why people spend many thousands on a decent kitchen then delight in eating food badly cooked over some kind of fire, cos it's so much better outside somehow

So you guys don't have grills and have cook outs? Food cooked on a grill tastes great! And that's the only point you need to have one.
