Anyone notice that Dolphin, Boat Browser for Tablet and Maxthon browsers seem to force close a lot since this latest update? I notice it most at IMDB.com when browsing pretty hard through it. Just poof, and back to desktop.

I have applied the latest OTA (yesterday) and use Boat Browser. I've not had one FC or issue as you describe and just went to imdb.com without a problem.

Maybe I need a full reset.....I was in there (IMDB) last night and added a few TV shows to a list and removed some and searched for others. At about 5 minutes with Dolphin the screen locked up and then it went to Home. Tried the others I mentioned and they fell short too doing the same things....
But the stock browser is doing fine....go figure.

Did a full reset yesterday and after a few minor issues things seem like they're back to normal. I use Apex Launcher and maybe I didn't get it setup right, but I was getting warnings about widgets not loading properly. I emptied all screens of all widgets and still would see the warning at start and end of the Intellecast app. So I switched the default loader back to Touchwiz. No errors. Rebooted and then restarted Apex and reset it as default launcher. Now, no problems.
Yippie!

email the developers of Boat browser to update it for compatibility with the N7. I intend to do the same right away, as I'm expecting my N7 any second now. It's already out for delivery.

Yea, they actually replied back last night and said they were working on it. Can't wait! I've tried all the browsers out there and Boat is the best one I've tried by far.
Weird I use boat and don't get any crashes?

When did you download it and did you get a recent update?
I downloaded it last night but uninstalled after it kept crashing. Maybe they updated it overnight?

Do you have your user agent on "desktop"? If so, can you try going to espn.com and click around?
I have a problem with my browser.
Only xda page continous reload in browser. I deactivate all extensions but problem not solved. I need a solution.
Thanks for advices
I had this problem when enabled noscripts plugin in firefox. Please check for plugins and allow xda scripts. This should resolve.
Try starting browser in safe mode.

You did not flood. Thanks for update. You should try with new browser window after clearing cache cookie. Usually ccleaner does that for you.
Next time please mention device. PC or mobile. Forum is accessible through all means.
Your update will be useful to others.

I have the same problem using Archlinux and Chrome. Any idea how to solve it?
I am experiencing this as well. Every time I touch the screen it reloads the page. I've run out of ideas. This only happens to me on XDA's site. If I uninstall Chrome and install it again it goes away for a time and then comes back I believe once I have logged in and posted.
I'm running Wanamlite 3.9 on a GT-N7100.
Same Here...

I am having the same issue but not just on my Samsung S4 phone, but also using IE 11 on my Win 8.1 pc.
Just wanted to contribute this info in the hopes that a solution is forthcoming from the geniuses on XDA!
TIA

Likewise: when browsing xda forums with chrome, it continually reloads, but only when I'm logged in to xda. If logout, it stops reloading. This happens on my Samsung Note 2 and my Barnes & Noble Nook HD+. I haven't tested it on any other platforms.
Yep. Same here. Using Chrome on Android.
Also same here.
Chrome on Win7 and chrome on Asus Tf300TG with 4.2
Selecting the XDA 2013 Beta 1024 theme at the bottom of the page fixed it for me on my Android tablet.
the problem also happened for me with opera mobile classic in desktop mode, using a note 2.
but the reloading only happened in topic/forum lists, and only if I tried to zoom in.
appelflap's solution worked for me.
edit:
something that might help in finding the real source of the problem: ?nocache=1&z=6394149552676460 gets added to the url whenever the page refreshes automatically.
Looks like appelflap method fixed my android and desktop browser issue. ThankYou
The site admins have been notified of the issue and they are looking into it.
In addition to the reloading issue, they need to be aware of the random redirects to Badoink. Nasty porn app that you can hardly back button away from. I'm so sick of reading a thread, and all of a sudden a giant d**k pops up on my screen. Freaking disgusting.

I have the same problem that my browser (Firefox) keeps reloading, and only on xda-developers. Browsing in a thread is no problem, but the forum overview keeps reloading ever two seconds or so. It seems to be a problem with a script, because I use NoScript and allowing all scripts to be executed solves the problem. I only expierience this on xda and permanently allowing every script is not an option for me, so I avoid the forum overview and only follow my subscribed threads until this issue is resolved.
I have the same problem with Firefox and Chrome on windows 7, XP, and Ubuntu 13.04
To my phone with chrome, dolphin and stock browser i haven't this problem..
EDIT: Now I have no issues, the pages aren't reloading anymore.
What did you do to stop the reloading?

has anyone noticed that these forums always reload everytime you touch the screen? I wait for my browser to stop loading, touch the screen to scroll down and it always reloads. Do I need to change a setting?

It happens to me on my tablet (Chrome browser) but not when I'm reading on my laptop (Chrome, Win7).
Yes, on the xda-forums the browser reloads twice before it settles down so I cam tap something.

On the bottom left side of the page select XDA 2013 Beta, it seems to work better on our tablet.
It seems like only Chrome reloads like that. However mine does not reload if I choose XDA 2010. It does reload if I choose XDA 2013 Beta.
why use chrome?

Just a note, after testing out several browsers, there are a few that come to mind as better than chrome. Dolphin, firefox, and boat to name a few. I have flash also working well in Dolphin, whereas in chrome it will not work. This site showss cleanly in Dolphin and it is wicked fast as well.
Dolphin browser is crashing a lot on my G Pad running Mahdi KitKat ROM. It does it mostly when I'm searching or zooming in. I love this app but can't deal with the constant crashing. I'm also open to suggestions for other browsers. I need syncing with chrome on my PC and flash if possible.

Have you tried installing Chrome from the play store? It will of course sync and should work just fine. Otherwise post the Mahdi thread about your issue with dolphin.

I reckon flash player is to blame. I know you have no interest in this, but uninstall the flash player and see if dolphin isn't stable. Flash is at this point patched up with frameworks in order to work. Prolly not the most stable thing in the world.
Dolphin with flash is what I use when I absolutely need flash and it may take a few reloads or crashes. If I can I just use Chrome..
crash on Dolphin

You can send Dolphin a crash report in Dolphin Settings > Help > Send Feedback > Stopped unexpectedly.
I often send it in this way. You guys can try it to let Dolphin know your issue.

I've sent many reports to them. They just updated the app but it still crashes a lot. It's a shame because Dolphin runs much faster and has support for flash. But until then, I'll have to stick with Chrome.
Curious, I got the same problem with Opera, it crashed all the time either in stock ROM or CM11. Chrome is OK..
Just today there is a new item on my battery stats....mdnsd. It is the top item in battery stats. Anyone have any ideas what it is, why it is suddenly killing my battery, and how to fix it?
This is on stock unrooted OJ6. (It showed up on the second day of use for OJ6.)
As I continue searching for a solution, I find this bug report from mobile Firefox regarding 42.0:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1215012
In short, is says it this may be a bug in certain beta firefox mobile, and Stable version 42.0 (which is the version I am using) which causes excessive mdnsd usage. Not sure if this is it, but I'll follow this for a while.
Try another browser. Chrome is impressive but I didn't like their merge tabs feature so I disabled it (right near the top of settings).
I recently kicked FlashFox (not to be confused with Mozilla) to the curb for recent constant running of a collector service; reported the app twice for this (the app kept restarting this service). Switched to Mercury browser for a flash browser.
I hate apps that don't behave... browsers can be the worse offenders here.

I don't sign-in or sync browsers. I tend to use my phone a lot for important stuff on the web so I sync my open tabs with titanium as needed and use bank apps. Chrome doesn't get all bogged-down with all those tabs ready to open.
I could just make them shortcuts but I got started on that with temporary browser tests until I could settle on one... creature of habit.

Dolphin was my main browser for a couple years but I pretty much use chrome now.
Following. Same thing popped up on my unrooted sg6 edge in the past 3 days. I am a Firefox sync user, but not on beta, just GA from play store. I deinstalled and rebooted, will check in the morning to see if the problem persists.
