Dolphin won't load Google search results

[dylane]

I don't think this was always the case, but in the last couple of weeks I've noticed that if I do a search from Dolphin and get the Google results page, clicking on any of the results links won't actually load the page, I just get a blank page. This only happens with Google search results, doing the same thing from a different search engine works fine. Any ideas what could be causing this?

Same issue here.

I've been going back and forth with their support for a while now. They have been unable to replicate the issue. I only have the issue on my Verizon GS3. Is that what you have as well?

PLEASE email them at support@dolphin-browser.com and let them know you have the same issue.

Can't duplicate it here ... in Dolphin I load google.com and search, getting a page of results. Clicking any of those results opens the referenced page as expected with no such blank page.

Do you have the Dolphin Jetpack installed? I removed it because of some problems it was causing, and I think the one you describe was one of them.

I'm using a Galaxy Note 2 on Verizon. Good to know that I'm not the only one with what seems to be a strange issue.

Will have to check to see if I have the JetPack installed, is that something that comes installed by default or is it an addin? I don't recall adding any extensions into Dolphin manually.

It's a separate app from the Play Store; your apps page should show if it's installed. I recall that I somehow got a "suggestion" popup while using Dolphin, and that's how I came to install it, but it creates a second icon for some reason. Didn't want to keep it for long though, as there were several problems.

I checked and couldn't find any reference to Jetpack anywhere in programs or in Dolphin, so don't think that's the issue. Thanks for the suggestion though.

I have emailed Dolphin support, so we'll see if they have any ideas.

I don't have jetpack installed either.

Think this may be an issue only on Samsung jelly bean devices.

I have the exact same issue on an AT&T S3. Sometimes it works, but once it starts loading blank pages when clicking on Google search results, it continues to do so. I think restarting the phone fixes it. My phone is rooted, but stock ROM. I can't find many others having this issue! It must be something specific to the particular software combination/settings on our phones.

I started getting this same thing recently (Galaxy Note 2) but it wasn't always like it - used to work fine when I first got my Note but something recently caused Google search results to come up blank when clicking a link.

One thing I noticed is it seems to be dependent on the user agent you select in Dolphin's settings. Can't remember which way around it is but I think if you select iPhone or iPad it doesn't happen. I usually use Desktop as I prefer the way sites like Youtube look in that mode, but that's the mode where Google search links are blank.

May be completely unrelated but I also had a similar thing on my desktop PC recently where my Google Adsense reports page would display blank on my PC. When I disabled Adblock it worked fine. I don't have Adblock on my Note but seems strange that it's just Google related sites which seem to have these similar issues. I do use Xmarks & Lastpass synced on both my PC and Note so wonder if it's somehow bringing across a setting because of those.

Also, Dolphin Beta (Play version) doesn't seem to have the problem either but Dolphin Beta (apk direct from Dolphin website) does. Much strangeness...
