[Q] Browser keeps scrolling/panning right on some web sites - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Strange browser problem that I have noticed on different Rom's (currently have Fresh 3.2.0.0).... On some web sites, the page continues to grow wider even after it appears to finish loading. The page then slowly moves to the right and I have to keep moving the screen back to center. Some sites like XDA, never show this problem. It seems to be most common with some news websites, but I don't have a list.
Any ideas? I have plugins set to on demand.

Tilt2 web browser site login issues

I just got a Tilt 2 the other day, and this is my first HTC phone. I love it so far, but I am having an issue of not being able to login to any site in the any either opera or IE. It either tells me the login in incorrect (which it is not) or that my session has expired, without ever actually logging in.
I tried to install skyfire, but it will not even run, just returns errors and closes.
Anyone else have/had this issue or know what the problem might be?
I can not login to any site, I have tested 10 or so sites.
I have also tried putting both browers in mobile only mode, with no change.
I actually have two of these phones right now, and the problem is on both phones.
I have the same problem, specificaly with mesh. It states my cookies are expired, even after clearing all cookies, history and browser cache.
I take that back.
Logins for things like cpanel/plesk/billing scripts (whmcs, ect) and web scripts such as WP or Joomla and even Kayako don't work. But I can login to sites like ESPN/Sportsline, ebay, ect.
I take it there is something missing from these mobile browsers that is not passing along the proper info to these scripts that does not allow them to be logged in.
I finally got skyfire to work, but the same logins fail in that browser also.
I even tried to install the beta of mobile firefox (can't remember the code name now), and it was horrid, worst mobile browser I have ever seen.
There has to be a way to change cookie settings or something to allow these type of script logins.

OFF TOPIC - DESKTOP Chrome is acting strange

Ok, I know this has nothing to do with the Epic Touch but I value all of your opinions about technology stuff.
I recently switched my primary email to be my Gmail account and since I did that I was going to try using pretty much all of Google's products since it makes things very streamlined.
In doing so, I switched from Firefox to Chrome on my computers. It's a great browser: love the themes, controls, add-ons; pretty much everything (especially once chrome on android gets ironed out and bookmarks, tabs, etc. are fluid between desktop and devices).
Unfortunately, there's a major kink in the armor I've found since starting to use Chrome. Google's own websites are acting wonky! Not all of them, but Google search & Google maps (two I use constantly for work) are acting erratically. See screenshot attached as far as the search problem. Maps is just really, really unreliable and slow. It will take 10-20 tries to get it to find an address, if it ever does. I'll open Firefox and it will find it the very first time, very quickly...same with the google search. It never shows the page I screenshot and is very quick and reliable on FF.
I'm confused and just looking for some insight from ya'll smart mofos.
Is it just those two sites, or are other Google sites affected as well?
Make sure you're using the Stable release of Chrome. (Settings -> About Google Chrome and make sure dev or beta is not after the version number.)
Have you tried swapping out your DNS servers? I tend to use Google's DNS servers. http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/ (Let me know if you can;t get to that, lol.)
Something might be messed up in your registry.
I had to change to Google Chrome from Firefox about 6 months ago because the Reg was all messed up and causing Firefox not to play any video, and a few other things. Yet when I started Chrome everything worked. Instead of trying to figure it out I just kept using Chrome. Haven't had any problems since. Although you may be using a Beta version also and don't even know it.
It took me awhile to find a decent program for checking the reg, so I would do a search on www.download.com for registry or registry checker.
ps I hate it when cheerios goes down the wrong side of your throat. cough cough cough
Thanks guys, I appreciate the input. I downloaded CCleaner and that got rid of a bunch of stuff, helped with google search a lot. Maps is still sucky though, but I am considering trying out the DNS suggestion at home first as a guinea pig then here at my office pc. I'll let you know what comes of it.
I'm having a problem getting to cyanogen mod Nightlies as well. Those pages just won't load! IE9 would find. Also AVG keeps blocking those sites and wont let me unblock them!
I use chrome as well, and sometimes when i go to fb, chrome wont load the feed. then i reload and it works. this happened on every fb page i would go to. go to firefox or IE and it al worked fine so i knew it was on Chromes side, maybe the way the script was wrote. anyways, this did this for about 2 months. i kinda got used to it. but then it updated and it doesnt do it anymore. BUT, since i installed linux and chrome for linux, now the chrome on linux does it again. was wondering if anyone else had this problem. i know this is about google services not working right, thought i would throw that out there. dont know if it will help or not (leaning towards the not). just my 2 cents.

Forum problem with FireFox

Over the last few days, the forum has been unreadable with Firefox (on Win7). Every forum page constantly reloads. To be able to scroll, click a link, or anything else, I have to click the "stop" button. And I even have to time that just right or it either still reloads the page again, or it stops before it loads any content so I just have a blank white page. I did not update Firefox between the page working and not working correctly. I have since updated it, but no change. I have killed all of my add-ons (just NoScript and a couple web development based add-ons) and it still does it.
I can browse the forums in IE, but even there I notice the "xda" logo on the IE tab flashes between the logo and the reloading circle symbol.
Is it just me, or is it something with the site? This is the only web site I'm having any problems with.
All fine here on Windows 7 and Firefox.
Once I load an actual post (such as this one) the reload issue stops. It only happens on the levels up from this one.
mother ****ing win
Yeah it was giving me issues too but in ubuntu, so I went to look for another browser.
When I stumbled upon this:
I have been having the same issue. I read a few days back that someone thought there were issues with NoScript in Firefox. I wish someone would respond and fix or suggest a fix.
In the meantime, I either use Chrome or switch back to the 2010 theme for XDA in Firefox, and they work fine (though I would prefer the 2013 beta theme if it were working).

I'm also having this problem when using the 2013 theme and firefox. What browser/ad-ons are you using?
A work around for now is to use the 2010 theme by either selecting it from the bottom left of the page or adding "&styleid=16" to the end of the URL. eg. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2450418&styleid=16
Firefox has been giving me warnimgs for the past few months about redirects with pages with ads on them, and is still doing it, while the redirects are happening, so the only way (with expecience) for it to still redirect is for the HTTP header to be sent by the server. SO *something* is triggering this. :|

Problem with displaying web pages in ANY browser

Hi! Since I'm new to the forums I would like to kindly request your help.
I've just bought the Lg G4 and restored my settings with my gmail account, after that, the Chrome app when I try to load certain sites, it loads them partially and a page number appears generally above all the site or below so I can see that site "by page numbers". Which is only resolved by requesting desktop site (on certain sites). I never had that issue before when I was in Lollipop and I've been looking around for a solution and found nothing. Could you help me with this issue?
By the way, other browsers seem to have this very same problem.
Thank you very much for your help
