Does Google Chrome run OK for you guys on ICS? I know that it is in Beta status, but I hear lots of reviews about how great it is.
It runs horribly for me. I can't go 30 seconds without it locking up. It will then give me the option to wait or close. Sometimes it will blur while trying to Thing is, it's not working for me on all different E4GT Roms I have tried (CM9, Calk's, Goodness). I have AOKP on my Galaxy Tab 10.1, and it's terrible on there too...same thing, slow, freezing, bad scrolling.
Any others care to share your experience with Chrome? Am I the only one?
it runs like s**t for me too. Ive tried it on AOKP and every leak since FB07. The people who have reported that it hasnt been glitchy, I believe, are just incredibly lucky. lol
It runs like $hit for me as well. It freezes, stutters & basically is unusable.

How buggy is CM9 on the touchpad? Are "device not supported" messages few and far between or are they everywhere?

My chrome just crashes everytime I try, when the 1.8 update for ICS Blend comes out I'll probably do a full wipe again and try updating again.
it freezes and crashes on me all the time.

Only partially true. Adobe flash just updated and in the market it said the update was for ICS
its been runing horribly for me as well.... works great on my Xoom ICS build
i have been using it on the touchpad cm9 nightlies for a while now. works great. my everyday browser. nice to have all my desktop shortcuts loaded right in. hopefully we will have it working on the e4gt soon.
Stutters when scrolling and crashes a minute in.

It's hit or miss here. Sometimes it works amazingly, other times it stutters and FC's.
What worked for me is uninstalling it threw titanium backup or whatever other app you'd like and then go to play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.android.chromeand obviously download it

There is a known issue running this game on CM9. It will eventually freeze up causing a reboot and sometimes it will delete all your game data when you restart it. Is this issue present on TW based GB and ICS rooms?

Yeah, thats what I do now. Whenever I reach a worthwhile achievement I just back it up in Titanium. For what it's worth I think it's just this build of CM9 because on my Xoom's CM9 I played for 30 minutes straight w/o a hiccup. Oh well.

I finally took the plunge, rooted and loaded fd24 on my phone. Chrome seems to crash on a consistent basis. My question, is it my phone or it's just seriously buggy.
I don't know for sure one way or the other but I can confirm that out locked up and crashed constantly for me on every ICS build I ran. It is still in beta though.

I would say it is chrome. I have not had any luck with it. Always seems slow and crashes
I don't think its been worked out yet for epic 4g touch.. I thought I heard that it may be kernel related.. and that would make Spence since we don't have source for ICS kernels. I think it might work better on a nexus S 4g better, but don't quote me on that..
it should be soon... I hope..

Its def chrome. I have a Nexus s 4g and it works pretty much as expected but on the Epic its not even worth taking up mem. When all is said and done though I would have to say that it will eventually be the best browser for mobile. Its really a joy to use when it works right. Heard its supposed to come out of beta sometime soon so shouldn't be a long wait for us.

wow.. i cant wait till there is a test version of this rom available for the masses. Im constantly going back between CM10 and Diet ICS/kyanROm. I simply dont have good battery life with ICS roms, but with CM10, its a day and night difference in terms of battery consumption. Only downside to Cm10 is that there is no access to netflix just yet.
But Cm10 is a work in progress (WIP), so it will get better, as it already has, in due time.

If someone can just port the camera app onto CM10, it will be golden.

I had the same issue on any touchwiz ROM, once I switched over to CM9 it all went away. Not sure why though.
Its been doing this for months. Somewhat disappointed that google cant get their own browser working right. Dolphin browser is a pretty good alternative if you dont like stock.
Chrome for phones sucks. For computer, is great but it is pretty damn annoying Google has a better version of Chrome out for the iPhone than it does for its Android devices!
On my i777 (yes, different phone) it crashed constantly and I'm running AOKP.

Chrome works great on proper ics devices, like the Nexus 7, SG 3, it's great on ics tablets, any new ics devices not bootleg gingerbread to ics devices like the Epic.
The Epic touch was the top of the line gingerbread phone from Samsung and it will be known as that, not as an ics wannabe. I love my Epic and would not trade it for another phone. When I want to Chrome I grab my Galaxy Tab2 and Chrome away, works flawlessly.

Again, I'm sorry, but you are a crazy person. Your "this is a gingerbread device" shtick is factually incorrect. What is the hd2? A winmo device ONLY??? The original evo? The hardware in this phone is perfectly capable of running ICS, in fact its still probably in the to 25% of all android phones. I'm sorry that you've not enjoyed your experience with ICS but your supposition that its meant only for gingerbread is silly and shows a fundamental misunderstanding of how android and android devices function.

It personally does not bother me at all. If you don't like the scrolling but want to stay on ics then try a aosp based rom instead. There are several options.
The older builds of AOKP either fixed or just didn't have that massive scroll acceleration that touchwiz based roms did.
