Chrome won't open shortened links - Sprint LG Optimus G

Like the title says, when tapping on a goo.gl/ link, chrome says web page not available. Is there a setting in Chrome to fix this? It worked before the jelly bean update.
Thanks

I have same problem with Twitter and other apps. I thought it it was the Imperiam initiative agent mod but I realized it works when I choose Browser but not Chrome. But some apps that have there own built in browser don't work either. So I don't know...

I just noticed this a couple days ago. I was figuring it was something to do with the hosts file I'm using for ad-blocking, but haven't gotten around to messing with it yet.

Is there a fix for this I'm unaware of? It is becoming extremely annoying. Are not more people having this issue?

I'm still looking for something. I have the stock browser disabled so using that isn't an option. Not sure why chrome can't handle these links

Nothing for this yet? How is everyone else viewing the shortened links given on this site or anywhere else with chrome on their mobile device?

Did anyone ever figure out how to fix this? I've tried like 4 different browsers.

The shortened links work in the stock browser but it. Have disable that to use Chrome only.

[Q] I can't download zip files

I didn't have any problems on my last ET4G anyone know how to fix this?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
Even though I set the default browser to "desktop", I am also unable to download zip files. I ended up using XScope browser to download zips and it's working fine. I'm fairly certain other browsers should also work.
I noticed this as well when I tried to download apps from other websites. I really would like to find a work around for this with the Dolphin browser if anyone knows how please share
Download "download all files" from the market. It fixes the downloading problem with the stock browser. Its free also

Download astro, go into preferences and select to allow downloads from browser. Simple as that.

I had this happen a while ago. The clipboard was corrupted. There is a procedure to clear it. I will look for it.
Edit:
Take a look at what I posted over here:

Are you rooted? You can clear it without a reset if you are rooted.
Edit: Just saw your later post that you are not rooted. Some have reported that they could clear the clipboard by deleting items using Polaris Office. You might try that but it did not work for me.

Youtube Won't Stay Signed In

So can't tell if this is a bug in a new update or something basically every time I don't use the Youtube app for more than 5 mins it signs me out. Then when I open it Youtube signs me in for another 5 mins. Very annoying any help is greatly appreciated NOTE: Screenshots from EVO buts its also happening on Note ii
I found out it signs me out after I end the process (like closing it in multitasking)
Things I did to try to fix this ..
Force stop Youtube and remove all user data/cache
Completly factory reset without backing up any system apps or anything to do with Google
Removed Google account, and add it again
Wipe Just Cache
Use a modified Youtube app
I've got the same problem and would love to have a solution. I use YouTube a lot and this has been a very frustrating bug.

One browser? Any android browser?

Anyone uses one browser have an issue with seeing some menu options? Everything is always blank for me. Is there anyway to fix this myself or is it the developers issue to fix?
Also anyone recommend any browsers? I used to use dolphin which was the best ever but lately its only been getting worse. All I need is a browser that kind of has the "speed dial" options of dolphin (a start up screen with links to bookmarked pages).

Or if you're using an Android version above Gingerbread, you can use Chrome for Android

Speed dial plus speed is UC Browser (English version), but I doubt you won't like it. As for me I use UC when I download things (multithread acceleration) but use Jellybean's default browser for else.

Flashplayer doesn't seem to work on uc so I need to find something else lol.

I'm using opera on 4.2.2. Maybe you have a DPI conflict with the play store. Flash works sometimes on opera, but is getting progressively jankier as time goes by.

Nope, that's a history issue for UC 7.x, they need a plugin. UC 8 natively support as I've read somewhere.

Ya I've changed the dpi ofmy phone. I guess ill just stick with one browser for now its only problem is the menu options don't show but other than that it works fine.
