- I downloaded 1.0.7.3312 the other day. Since then, I've had nothing but problems with my browser while connected through my bluetooth. I've had dificulty connecting and when it is connected, it freezes. When I close the browser window, I cannot reaccess the brower until I disconnect from the bluetooth, the re-tether. Is there a way to go back to the previous release? I tried the hard boot and it did not clear the problem.11-14-11 05:12 PMLike 0
- Yes Ive complained about irks I have with the playbook, but I've always been positive in the browser. I think it's great and a breakthrough for tablets. But lately it's crashing constantly or jus disappearing requiring a restart to make it reappear. What the heck is going on?
Sounds like a typical flash crash. Flash is buggy in most os other than windows. Linux for instance is notorious for browser crashes caused by flash. Unfortunately you cant reinstall flash you have to reinstall the whole os. Try turning off flash and javascript one at a time and see what happens before doing anything drastic.11-14-11 05:27 PMLike 0 - Wow I started a thread yesterday with the exact same problem. I had the problem for the last couple of weeks but got brutal after I download the Orb app from app world. It got so bad that the browser was almost completely unusable both in WiFi and Bridge. I called RIM today and they talked me through reinstalling the OS. Had to reload my apps but seems to be ok now.
Very odd coincidence that this is happening to others at the same time.11-14-11 07:00 PMLike 0 - Superfly_FRRetired Moderator
EDIT: and yes, cache and history clean can do much, especially if the problem is recurrent on identified sites.11-15-11 04:33 AMLike 0 - Yesterday my browser would not connect I did a restart from the screen, that did not help after several attempts did a shutdown with volume -/+ combo, then restarted. I am using wi-fi no phone. Also shut down modem for a few min. Finally was able to connect. The strange thing was that the wi-fi bars were all green from the start.11-15-11 05:47 AMLike 0
