Most of the time it take a long to to load a page,its like it not responding, it takes 12-15 sec for the keyboard to come up sometime it don't even appear ..?
I had to stop using it and go back to using the browser app..;( its a shame..
I know its not the rom cause it does it in all the ones I have tried.
Is it to do with the memory the W has or something..

If I know it well, its in its beta stages... so its not really that good a browser... just what I think
Thrown out by my custom CM10 with CastagnalT's kernel.
Chrome is a heavy browser so I assume that galaxy w cant handle it with so few RAM. Thats the issue

Remove clear data of the program maybe would be smoother
or run a turbo script or download a root cleaner to have more ram
cuz more ram is more smooth ..
even I have tried the google browser and it is slow, the stock CM browser is the most stable and fast for me but you can also try maxton browser :good:which is very fast in the scroll,pinch-to-zoom and in loading pages.

As we all know the Froyo browser is bad.
Is there something that can be done? AOSP browser maybe? Galaxy Tab browser? Eclair browser?
I know this might not belong here, but I am sure the devs here could come with something up!
WE NEED A FASTER BROWSER!!!
Amen to that.

Yes, it is smoother but still not iphone smooth. But anyway, we deserve a fast browser WITH flash!
Let's add a bounty as well!

It is not Flash that is slowing it down.
Disable it and you will see.
On the Droid X the browser is by far smoother WITH flash enabled.
There is something else going on here.

Yes the problem is that with flash enable,the available memory is gone making the phone so slow to scroll etc.Its a memory management problem
Agree, we have far too little useable ram, and the browser is using way too much.
Opening pocketnow.com uses 120mb ram on jpa, it causes a fc and memory dump.
We barely have 120mb useable to begin with!
Very very annoying... Time to start posting on samsung facebook page

Flash is not the problem. I don't think any sane person runs Flash "always on" on the galaxy s unless they enjoy feeling frusterated.
With flash off, scrolling is pretty bad, pinch to zoom is pretty bad. It varies from pretty good to terrible.
I don't like my phone being whooped by a 9 month old Nexus One in terms of browsing performance, when mine has better specs!!!
Maybe Opera Mobile, which is coming out this month, is the solution. Opera browsers are always very very fast.
Also, has anyone hands-on experience with the Galaxy Tab? How is the browser performance there?
I hope that Opera will be good. Thing is, the Froyo browser should be absolutely amazing on this phone but Samsung screwed it over. Hopefully Cyanogen can take care of it.

I just opened pocketnow.com and it's perfectly smooth..
I have no complains with my froyo browser except it has problem downloading from megaupload.
Have you tried auto killer?
O loved Opera Mobile on WM, let is hope that on Android it will be equally good. I can't wait for it.
Why have Dolphin HD and xscope the same problem with the ram? I check it both have 100 MB two. (pocketnow)

Hmm sounds like they removed the smooth scrolling cache tweak. You could try supercharging it. Or you could jump ship to Aokp31.. its basically the same deal as cm9b2 just more features. Its on the same framework 4.0.4... and it runs slick.. it has the option to force enable the smooth scrolling and it works like a charm. Sorry if suggesting another ROM isnt an option..
Yes I would prefer to stay on this one... this rom you mentioned is still on alpha right? I think i might try cleaning the cache in cwm not sure if that might help..

Aokp... its really on par with cm9 beta. They are very similar and just as stable. Aokp just has extra features.. that come with the ROM control. And no wiping cache in cwm is not what I ment. Scrolling cache is a different cache entirely .

If you would like you could just wipe cache and dalvik and flash right over it. However i suggest you wipe everything.. now that the play store restores your apps you've installed with it automatically thats the best option. I used to be really hesitant to do fresh installs.. but since the play store remembers what've previously installed and does it upon restore your google account its much easier and less room for error .
Interesting. I am actually having the same issue. It was not a problem on beta 1 but beta 2 for some reason is just awful for me. I may have to jump to AOKP. I really liked an earlier build I was using but it had some scrolling problems too. These are all smoothed out with Build 31 then?

Chrome has become my daily browser since I started using Dolphin with my Nexus One.
With the last update for Chrome and FF09, it's the smoothest browser I've used on Android. However, there are still instances where scrolling is jerky and sometimes scrolling stops working for half a minute. It seems like it only happens when I try to scroll while a page hasn't finished loading, but all of the browsers I've tried seem to have issues with scrolling an incomplete page. Closing and reopening the tab will fix the jerky scrolling.
Chrome also freezes on me forcing me to force stop it through settings -> applications. I cannot reliably reproduce this problem and it is annoying, but the benefits of having access to the open tabs on my computer on my phone outweigh this problem.
I do wish Google would iterate the Chrome beta app as fast as they iterate the desktop version of Chrome beta because I'm assuming they mean for this browser to become to default one on Android and jerky scrolling and freezes is pretty bad.
I absolutely do not know which Chrome people are using that they find "buttery smooth" and "fast". It is a terrible laggy and crappy browser on my end. The last update killed it for me where it only launches to a white screen and just freezes. If and when it does decide to work properly, it's stutters and jib-jabs when scrolling, no flash, just all around terrible. No wonder it's surname is still BETA.
Dolphin browser (mini or HD) puts it to shame, really.
You can also try firefox... It's very smooth, and untill now, I didnt find any problem
I like it but I never use it. No flash is... well, no flash. No plugin support like the rest of em either. you'd think with google being the og devs for android. Could make it all work out.

Hi! I'm going to get the note soon and I'm wondering how it is when multi Tasking. How many apps can you open and retain on the 2gb ram? Does the browser redraw all the pages when switching between say for example 5 apps or so? How about the launcher, does it redraw?

I also have stock browser crashing when it never did before. I suspect one of the google updates that went through recently since besides app updates I haven't changed anything in months and I don't think any of the apps I have is embedded deeply enough to affect the browser. I've considered nandroiding back to trace it but it's a tough one to do since the crashing is somewhat random. Btw I don't have your video app installed (Maxthon).

I have the exact same problem with my N7100. In first thought I was sure that it was a software problem and I did all the steps you mentioned in your initial post...but there I had no luck as the problem kept coming. Then I gave it a try to my local samsung service point. The first time I sent them the phone they didn;t manage to solve the problem and they onlt did a factory reset. The second time I sent it they changed the mainboard (pcb/motherboard)...I thought I was done but guess......the problem was still there! But I am ok, I am now sure that it's a software bug.
I am using the opera browser which doesn't give me the stock browser problems (boat browser is also giving problems to me)!
