Stock browser crashes after initiating download - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Have my note 2 for about 6 months and love the stock browser. Don't want to use a third party browser.
But since a week my browser keeps crashing after I initiate a download.
Every time with no exceptions.
Tried t empty cache / buffer and erased all info I could in app info and in restored factory default of the browser app.
Without succes.
Does anyone have a solution to fix this?
I searched my ass of here an via Google, found similar problems bit no solutions.
Thnx!
P.s.
Device was never rooted and is stock on 4.1.2.

The same with my phone. Only the browser crashes wether I download or not. But only once per session.
After that first crash, it tend to work flawlessly for the rest of that surf session. Regardless of the length.
So maybe you should try downloading a second time after crashing? But I guess you've already tried.

Thank you but yes I tried that already.
But without succes.
Mine only crashes with download.
It freezes and within 5 seconds it crashes.

Here is an idea. Have you emailed youtube (the people behind it) and see if they took that option away in the last update? Or it could be a bug they need to fix.
Sent from my SGSIII with the XDA Premium App
No but I searched and either my wording or no one has has this issue. Was fine after latest update then all of sudden gone.. ill roll back updates and see if that helps. Will email YouTube people too.

Problem with messaging

Guys, few weeks ago ive been experiencing a messaging problem. When I open Messaging, it appears that it is empty. I have to restart my phone to view/retrieve my messages again. Please help. Thanks
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
I get this too. So far a reboot is the only solution I've found. Force stopping and restarting doesn't help.
Happens on both stock and omega rom

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.

Have you uninstalled and reinstalled the App? Cleared app data? Multiple things you can do.

Seems like a Facebook issue.... They've been pushing updates thru network and not the store.... Which is against TOS, so it could most likely be on the apps end.

It is a Facebook issue that many others, including myself, have experienced as well.

Stock Browser Crashing? (Solution)

I've had several weeks of frequent crashing with the stock browser, including associated crashes in Pulse and other apps that use it. I searched high and low to no avail but finally came across a one line post elsewhere that seems to have solved my problem (24 hrs + stable).
The issue was caused by a Google search setting that may have gotten changed some time ago during an update (grrr). If you have this problem, go to the Google search page in your browser, then click Settings > Search Settings, and under "Precise Location", choose "Do not allow". I cleared the browser cache afterwards and for good measure, rebooted to recovery and wiped the cache and dalvic cache. Hope this helps someone else as it was a nasty problem.
