Why is xda so slowww on my phone! - About xda-developers.com

I can go to most any websites, watch hour long streams whatever. But try and load xda forum pages and usually sooooooooooooo slow. If they load at all. Worse than old aol 28k days. On the pc they load just fine.

Are u trying to view w browser or with the xda app?

XDA are also in the process of releasing a faster app, and the new 2013 style which will be faster once they have worked out the bugs for both.

That's what your problem is likely to be then. Download the XDA app from the Google Play Store and it should run smoother and quicker for you.

XDA with android browser

Does anyone else have any issues clicking on links from the XDA portal with the Android browsers. Not a big deal but somewhat annoying

Funny that a phone website doesn't even have a mobile friendly version.
But just use the xda app.

Nope, I pay for mine and it's only just bearable. I'll be moving to a paid sub to StrongVPN when my current period ends.

Looks original enough.
Looks legit. Seems an xda member ported it. Check about. Lol. It's nice. Pretty fast. But it has some stuff in another language for some reason.
Sent from my GT-S5360 using xda premium
Lol screw "nice" and "pretty fast" this is the ****. Pretty damn awesome lol I'm loading websites in less than half the time it took with Dolphin and Maxthon.
DOLPHIN HD BROWSER IS BETTER, looks like google chrome too
I ditched Dolphin for Maxthon, and I'm ditching Maxthon for this. Don't really care for the gestures as long as it's faster, and this is.

Hmm a friend on stock rom tried this and had to uninstall because he said it slowed down his phone. Wonder why. It's fine on mine.
its nice but the apk is very small the original chrome has over 10mb.Greeeeeeetz
Okay did some digging around. The browser is Miren, not Chrome. It's a browser from China and has a MIUI feel. An xda member translated it to English. Now why anyone would go through the bother of labeling it as Chrome I have no idea.
Still pretty awesome though. Seems I've been testing a lot of Chinese apps lately. XD

Flash supported browsers. What are you using?

Hey gang. Just wondering which flash supported browser is everyone using.
I watch a lot of football (soccer) online but lately Dolphin (modded) and Boat browser have been freezing and crashing while trying to play flash video.
Any suggestions would be great!

Have you tried Dolphin Browser Beta? It supports Flash without having to make any modifications.
I'm such a dork...... It was the website's fault. I'm using flash with Firefox but I'll try Dolphin Beta as well. Thanks home slice

Actually NONE of the browsers fully support flash video in-frame on websites.
In other words, we can all play any flash video as long as it's not embedded in
a webpage.
There are a very few websites which are setup in such a way that allows any of the new
models of android phones to play/view flash videos which are imbedded in the webpages.
My S2 and S3 had no problem doing it............. I am sure sooner or later there will be
a mod, fix or an upgrade so it works properly all the time on any webpage.

Site Admin, please read: Landing page "Root" video.

So the video on http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1891#root plays automatically in the background whenever you get to the Samsung Galaxy Note II landing page. Is it possible to stop this from loading until I press play? Or I figured it was code on the page telling it to load that video and play automatically.
Seeing as how alot of us are using tethering already anyway on our phones, it takes up quite a bit of bandwidth that we ALL KNOW Sprint doesn't have to spare.
I have adblock already.

I am not experiencing what the OP is describing. The video does not auto play for me.
Go into your phone's browser settings, find Plugins and set them to Click to Play or Disabled etc.

This is on a full desktop browser guys. Not mobile.
I've never had this happen, not on any of the four separate computers I use (at a minimum) every day.

Chrome, almost exclusively, FF on a random occasion. Two of the computers have Chrome (and all ad-on/settings/b-marks) synced. The other, shared workstation...
Try Chrome in incognito mode, make sure it's not a sh1tty extention.

I have this happen all the time. I use Chrome. I haven't figured out how to stop it, but I know it's Youtube video, and somewhere in my settings, Chrome automatically starts any Youtube video. I noticed the YouTube thing on other sites. I just haven't been able to find the Youtube video on the landing page, but I do know the video playing is from YouTube because I have watched it on YouTube.
So it's A Chrome thing then... Simple enough.
