Samsung browser home page reset - Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers

Since I been using my A50 I been noticing the Samsung home page keeps reverting back to Google. Com. I change it then 3 days later it's back to Google has anyone else seen this issue. I use Samsung browser on all my mobile devices and It's never happened with my tablets or other phones. Oh also I am Google free, apps are uninstalled and I never login to Google ever. Thanks

Again does anyone's home page in the Samsung browser default back to the Google home page after changing it to something else?? This constantly happens every 3 days.

How about using a browser like Firefox, Opera or Edge and see if the issue persists.

My browser crashes all the time

It crashes usually when I'm submitting a reply to a forum making me lose my whole letter. But it's not limited to just hitting the submit button.
Does anyone else have frequent browser crashes or know what might be causing it?
No. I have only had the browser crash once or twice.
Since the update, I've been having lots of browser freeze-ups in the stock and dolphin hd browsers. The browsers don't crash, they just freeze for several seconds. But yesterday my stock browser crashed about three times when I was trying to pay bills. Did you get the 3.2.1 update? If so that could be the culprit.

This happens to me all the time with Dolphin HD and the stock browser:
The error that pops up offers to force close or to wait. If I wait, the error disappears and the browser continues as if nothing had happened. It seems to happen when I try to scroll or click before the page has completely loaded - i.e., when the loading line is still displaying.
Is that the kind of crash you are experiencing?
I have been trying Opera Mobile for a couple of days, and it has not yet crashed on me (crosses fingers).
No, I don't get any kind of error message. I just get kicked out to my home screen and when I open the browser again all my tabs are gone.
Yes, I did download and install the latest update but these crashes were happening even before the update.
Try something along these lines
Settings>Applications>Manage Applications (and go under "all" tab)
Now, look for the internet browser app there and click on it. Some info on the app should pop up (size, cache, data, etc.) Now click on "clear data" and confirm. (Note, clearing data will do just that, clear ALL user data on that app) now relaunch the browser and try to recreate the crash...with any luck, this will have fixed it

Every problem I had went away when I installed Opera browser. No more crashes. No more stuttering, choppy YouTube videos. Working select text, copy, and paste. No more bumping the wrong links or accidently closing on-screen keyboard because I hit the spacebar wrong. No more opening windows because my finger accidently strayed across the screen. Everything just works now. Boy am I glad I tried Opera. If you're having any of these issues I suggest giving Opera a try.

I wish I would have listened to you sooner but I was getting no error message. Oh well. Better late than never.

Dolphin Loading Blank Pages on Google Results Links

AT&T S3 rooted but stock ROM. Ever since I loaded Dolphin a few months ago, sometimes Dolphin starts failing to load a page when you click on a Google search result. I'm guessing it may not be specific to Google but simply specific to any link to a site that does a subsequent redirect (since search result links go to Google then redirect.) If I recall a restart clears things up. But once it starts doing it, the only way I can get a result link to not bring up a blank page is to open it in a new tab.
Anyone experienced this or have any ideas as to a solution?
Have you tried another browser to be sure it's not dolphin having issues?

Ya try the same lunks in stock browser or chrome or what ever u choose. If they work there clear the app cha he for dolphin. Maybe uninstall and reinstall as well

It has something to do with cache, history, etc. As when I clear everything it works again but then does it again. This is with only 2 or 3 tabs open. It only happens with Google results links (iow, happens with redirect links.) I tried re-install. It only happens with Dolphin. Don't get this issue with Dolphin on my Nexus 7, only my Galaxy S3. Seen at least one other person have this issue but it seems somewhat rare.
I noticed I have it set to cache to SD card. Turned that off. Will see if it makes a difference.

[Q] Bookmarks not working

My bookmarks stopped working after I updated to Kitkat and turned Google+ off and then on, clearing history and cache. Not sure if one of these actions caused the problem. My husband has the same tablet and his work after Kitkat so could be Google+. Clicking on the bookmarks in the stock browser just opens to google.com. Any ideas?
Could the lock be causing this?

I also noticed that in the address bar there is a star which I would expect and a lock. My husband's does not have a lock. Anyone know how to unlock?

Facebook camera icon in chrome missing?

Suddenly today my facebook camera icon to attachnimages to comments is missing when viewing via Chrome browser, but it's still there in Firefox and request for desktop version.
Anyone got any ideas what's up? They trying to force us to use Thier apps or something screwy?
Do you realize that you speak gibberish in your post? I'd love to help you, but your language is not comprehensible!
I'm also having trouble figuring out what has happened. It seems the camera icon for comments is missing from Facebook when I'm using chrome. Unless I switch to desktop. I've tried reinstalling chrome, clearing data and resetting settings.
Seems it just took a few days not exactly sure I did anything but the icon has reappeared.

I have the same issue. I just tried Desktop Mode for the first time a few days ago and noticed it was missing. Were you able to use Chrome in the past? You mean it just disappeared after a recent update? In that case we could roll back to a previous Chrome version...
Anyone know how to add apps to the desktop mode start menu?
All G apps except Chrome are missing.
