[Q] .42 -> .62: Change in stock browser functionality? - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
When I first had my Arc I was very pleased/impressed with the resize feature in the browser: double tab and the page is resized to fit the screen, text would fit nicely on the screen so no left-right scrolling was needed.
Now that I upgraded to .62 this does not work that well anymore .
Is this due to the upgrade to .62 or has the browser changed? Is there a way to get this feature working as it used to do?
Tnx,
Jef

I noticed the same thing when i was on .62 stock rom. On Arconium this bug is gone.
Maybe you should use a different browser like opera mobile or dolphinhd. I'm using dolphin brwoser and double-tap is working and it is fast as hell

Thanks Wayne!
I just tried Dolphin and it works perfect!!

Opera Problem when rotating

Hi
i use your 1.17 version and i got some problem with Opera in lanscape mode when i rotate my phone.
I sometimes encountered a problem that when i rotated the phone while browsing web the opera browser rotated but then disappeared and back to the home screen. If i restart the phone the opera browser continued to work well
The same problem for GSen when i rotate the phone the screen change to lanscape mode but then disappear and back to the home screen. Is there any other program with the same features like Gsen but work well on your Rom ? Thank you very much.
You can try Gyrator2,

All apps tested and work fine on Touch HD
normally u can rotate your opera browser without another software right ?
What i want to know for the first question is the problem is from opera itself or from the room
I'll try your recommend software. What room do u use now
I'm using french original rom.
Opera must be in exclusion list of Gsen, gyrator2,... because he don't need additional app to rotate...perhaps you only need to exclude opera from gsen configuration ?
actually thing happened before i install gsen on my Touch HD and now when i install gsen it continued to happen and the same result for other app when i rotate my phone
Are you using pzucchel rom???
If yes, there's an update (v1.18), perhaps that solve your problem
i'm asking him if i still get the same problem maybe i will change to the original rom like u

I also had this problem.
It seems to have something to do with sdkcerts.cab or after installing a different icon in windows top bar.
Could also have something to do with GSen or Gyrator, but after uninstalling them the problem persisted.
I flashed to a different ROM, problem is now gone.
Which room are u using now ??
same problem here
I'm having the exact same problem. It has to do with sdkcert.cab and the new task bar with colored icons.
Don't know how to fix it yet.
Any ideas?
Same problem
I have the same problem.
Will change the color bar and update you.
Kind regards,

why doesnt the zoom bar work in IE?

I can't get it to work. even did a fresh reset and it doesnt work
but it does work in opera.
is IE non fuctioning? or is there a trick?
using sprint and 6.1
I don't think the zoom bar is compatible with IE at the moment. It's only compatible on the Opera Browser.
I have a Tilt 2 and the zoom bar isn't work for me with Opera. Do you guys have a screen protector on your phone? Maybe mine is too thick or something.
that happened to me when i flashed a 6.5.1 rom on my phone it worked on the ie but not opera. idk why

trackpad laggy between home screen transitions

hey guys, sorry if this has already been posted, I've done a quick search and nothings come up.
When using the track pad to scroll through home screens with a normal wallpaper, the transitions are really jumpy and laggy. but when using a live wallpaper it's fine.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
and if so, do you think there will be a possible fix for a rooted desire without having to flashing a custom rom?
Thanks, Brandon
Why use the trackpad at all?
same 4 me. trackpad on desktop lag.
i don't use it but anyway it's boring.

[Q] hiding the address bar on stock browser 4.2.1

Ive updated to 4.2.1 and everything was improved until i tried the stock browser. One problem is that when tapping the tab button and scrolling between the pages i have open is laggy. Anothe annoyance is that the address bar never hides. It uses too much space. All this wasnt a problem on android 4.1.1. Im using stock 4.2.1

Yep. I noticed this too. However, it's smooth if you hold your finger on the screen, no matter how fast. If you flick your finger, lift your finger, and let it scroll, it gets laggy.
I suggest going to settings>labs>enable quick controls. I did not care for these on older versions, but i like it now. It will also hide the status bar.

S4 mini I9195 bottom screen unresponsive

So somebody gave me a Galaxy S4 mini I9195, but I found it has a bug. The verry bottom of the screen (the line where quick actions are situated on home screen like app drawer) is not working in some apps or specific "places" like in Camera app, google's prompts to log in with account or register a new one or the keyboard in web browser. In all other cases like swiping from bottom between home screens, in dialer or typing messages, it works perfectly fine.
I belive it has something to do with the OS version, as it runs 4.4.2 and I encountered problems with this version on another phone in the past. I tried to install CM13 hoping to fix this problem, but it hasn't work. Can you give me any advice? I still hope it's just a matter of OS and I could find a custom ROM (I think I would prefer to install a stable, safe, clean one; I don't want to twerk it too much and have random crashs or things like that). Please help me out.
