[Q] can only open bookmarked sites. Need Help Please - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, I am having a problem opening web sites that are not bookmarked on my phone. I have tried using both stock and Opera Mini. Stock browser will just kick me out of the browser and back to my phone, and Opera will give me an error that says server something or another. Any Ideas??
As always, I will be sure to hit "thanks"
Nevermind, got it figured out!! Thanks anyway.

Google Maps Problem....

Hi
I recently tried to install google maps on my phone but when I get the link for it. It brings up a page sasying 'visit now' but when I click this it only takes me back to google search.
Does this happen to anyone else?? Or am i being stupid and missing a link to downloading the software for it? I searched the forum and didnt find a similiar problem to this.
Cheers.

I can tell you use opera, you need to do it with pie
ah right.. didnt realise the browser would make a difference. Thanks i'll try using a different browser.
when you do it, it will works
yeah your right. I tried it with internet xplorer and it went through fine. Strange..
it is becouse the internet explorer is the standard browser in wm and opera is a browser Htc make in the rom
ah right fair enough, thanks for the help =-)
No problem

Downloading problem

Just wondered if this happens to anyone else, I cant download from any file share sites via my phone or any external link for that matter. I can only download from the market and attachments in forums.
Am I missing a setting somewhere or does this happen for everyone :-(
Same here, i cant seem to download from any fileservers except a few like megaupload. All the others give me a 'download unsuccesfull'. Anyone?
Are you guys using the stock browser ?
If yes, then try using a different browser to name few ( dolphin HD, Firefox, Opera)
If still doesn't work then make sure you have a astro file explorer or some sort of app like that which will recognize the files you download.
Hope this helps.
I use dolphin and set user agent to desktop, almost always works then.

I use stock so will give one of the others a bash cheers
Yeah this problem happens when using the browser that comes with the phone. So use another browser for downloading from file share sites. I use Opera browser.

Site problem with IE9?

I am using IE9 (x86) on Windows 7 x64. And I am having a lot of trouble while browsing XDA on IE9.
The tab become so unstable and it can go not responding whenever i click "Thanks" or "Quote" . The tab crash most time when i clicked " quick reply" on the last post of the page and IE has to recover it.
I don't know if it is just me, or something else?
Anyone can confirm this?
Change browser. Use Chrome or Firefox.
If you want to keep IE, let me check it.
The browser lags to rool the page. IE 9 was a huge improvment over IE 8, but it still sucks.

I have used IE for a long time... I have Chrome also but i use IE most of the time.

[Q] Can't create bookmarks after ICS update

I can't seem to figure this one out and search doesn't help.
After updating to ICS (Unrooted/Stock) I can no longer create bookmarks in Skyfire. Is or has anybody else experienced this? If so did you get it resolved? If you did, how did you do it?
I have already done a Factory Reset, reinstalled Skyfire too.
Thanks in advance!
[PLEASE DON'T PUSH DOLPHIN OR X,Y,Z BROWSER ON ME, I KNOW ABOUT THEM ALREADY AND I LIKE SKYFIRE AND THE QUESTION IS ABOUT SKYFIRE - THANK YOU!]

It's probably Skyfire not updated to work properly with ICS.
I had wondered this too.

same problem here ... i suppose since the latest chrome v 23 update ... but some threads are working, some not ...
I have an other problem with Chrome and XDA (Windows).
Whenever I close Chrome and restart it, I'm logged out at XDA, although I check "Remember Me".
This is pretty annoying.
Maybe someone has an idea what I can do, I have this problem only on XDA.

No problems here, using Chrome Version 23.0.1271.64 m
I face the issues described here when I use Firefox 16.0.2 on Windows 7 (32 or 64 bit doesn't matter, same problem on two different PC's). The forum will reload the page over and over and over again until I deny to run scripts using NoSript for xda-developers.com. Using Google Chrome (23.0.1271.64m) there is not a problem.
Edit: Now Chrome starts to reload the forum pages over and over again, too.
The others are talking about desktop, not mobile. There is no App for those.

Same issue with Firefox and No Script on windows. I'd be interested in what is causing it if you find out. Likewise, I am enabling and disabling the MANY ad and tracker scripts running on this site.
A fresh profile of Chrome sorted this.No idea how.Same add-ons.

Whenever I hit the back key on my mouse on XDA in Chrome I go back two pages instead of one. Very frustrating. Does not seem to happen in Firefox.
My default browser is Firefox and I have none of the mentioned problems. On Chrome however the pages reload over and over again, just like described here.
Same problem here... Attachment loaded but UI messed up... And I couldn't add smilies... -_-
Happen on mozilla firefox too...
I have issues while using. Xda in browsers too,
But only in my home,
I cant even use the 2013 theme it gets garbled up
In my gf's place everythings fine,
I think it's your ISP, DNS, or browser extentions that is causing the problem
