Help Browser force closes

kysleddogs · Feb 5, 2012

New Asus Slider sl101...browser seems to frequently force close as in with the error message, or just close suddenly no error message at all. I have tried factory resetting once already in case I had downloaded something that wasn`t playing nice, but the issue persists. Stock everything.

Anybody else with this problem? Suggestions? I really want to like this!

Apologies also if i missed this in search..i did not see as applicable to slider.

Tks,
Beth

Have you tried, settings applications all apps, find browser then clear data

also, does this happen with another browser from the market?

I have not tried specifically clearing the data, but the issue did recur immediately following the factory data reset. Have not tried a different browser, but will do. Is this a known issue? Why send equipment with a browser that doesnt work? Meantime, will check alt browser.

May I ask you, as I am not seeing a lot anywhere on the slider, are you happy with yours? Find it generally stable? I just got it, so it's not too late to return. I am not opposed to rooting either if it makes for a more stable experience.

Boat Browser crashes/force closes too. Sooo frustrated. Should I give up on this model while I can or what?

I have had my slider since release and have had 0 issues with it. The stock browser has not forceclosed on me once. no apps have. did you do a full factory reset? like delete all apps and such? it sounds like its a rogue app

Hi, Beth.

I know your post is older, but wondered what you decided to do or if you ever found a fix. I have had mine since December 2011 and I still have this problem. It is to the point of extreme frustration since we have a vacation coming up and it really ruins the portability issue if you can't even use the browser!!! I've also been using it a lot more lately to shop for items for the trip and so I have been more exposed to its "Force Close" in browser issues lately and it's driving me absolutely crazy!

And, then to see where Wake69 has had absolutely 0 problems, well, I'm about ready to throw it away! I guess I just kept thinking that they'd update with a new browser or something or at least be able to find others with this problem and a subsequent fix, but nothing and very few posts having the same problem.

Did we just get stuck with stinkers??? I would appreciate any help.

Thx,

Kristi
