Browsing Issue

**BlackDynamite** · #1 (**permalink**) 01-19-2011, 03:54 PM

Is anyone else having a browsing issue on some (but not all) sites?

If I go to gizmodo.com in either dolphin hd or the stock browser, the page loads halfway and then stops.

I've noticed this on several sites, on both 3G and 4G. Sometimes they load, sometimes they stop before they finish loading.

This all started last night. Anyone else experiencing this?

Actually I noticed the same thing yesterday. If I would go into my gmail and try to open a link it would open partially. Then if I refreshed it would close completely and go back to my inbox

Same here as well, it happened several times over the last few days.

Having minor dolphin issues here as well. When trying to login to the wifi at my public library, the keyboard keeps "falling" behind the screen in portrait, so I cant even access it. Only by going into landscape view did I get the keyboard to work...

Same here, I started noticing it yesterday. Wondering if this is an Android thing or specific to any ROMs. I am running myn's RLS5 in case it matters.

I'm running Myn's rls5 as well... issue persisted with both native and gingerbread IMEs. Only way to get it to stay onscreen was to go landscape.

I'm on Sprint Lover's so I don't think it's ROM related.

I just tried this and it seems to work, Chris from Sprint Lovers posted it.

Use Root Explorer and go to system/etc and delete the hosts file then reboot.

Seemed to work for me.

Does anyone know what this file contains that caused this issue?

I don't have Root Explorer so I used Android Mate and deleted the hosts file, but I did not notice any difference. In fact, I just confirmed that I still have the issue even using WiFi.
