I'm being thrown out of Browser

[Edmundblackadder]

I'm on my second Excell now, the first one having to be swapped. It is generally fine but when I am on the web browser it is randomly throwing me out of the page, closing the browser down, and returning me to the main front page. It is doing this on a range of pages, not just one site. Any thoughts? I am hoping not to have to send it back but I will not live with this as it is too annoying.

Hi,

Sorry this won't help, I'm on my 1st Excel still but got the same thing 6-9 times within 2 weeks of having the tablet. However it does not do that any more (why and how I don't know) - I have only been using the GB stock browser. Maybe with all the messing about on the tab I have done I could have fixed it without knowing.

Charlie, Magic fingers without realising it. The only problem with solving a problem without knowing how is that if it comes back you don't know what to do to solve it again. Hopefully it is something simple.

Yes very true , touch wood so far the problem has not resurfaced. Are you using the stock Launcher or a 3rd party one. I wonder if this issue stopped when I changed to ADWLauncher EX, you can try the ADWLauncher version for free the Ex is a paid app.

I just click on the browser app that it came with. I use Google as the search engine.

Yes I am using the stock web browser and Google as the search engine - What I meant was to change the home launcher (the app that controls the desktop - so to speak) I.e.


Mini breakdown comparison of Android / Windows

Android:-
* OS
* Home Launcher (different Launchers can be installed & used and can be switched between - There is an app to make that easier too)
* Apps
* User Data


Windows:-
* OS & Home Launcher (i.e. desktop screen) as one program
* Apps
* User Data


Sorry if you already know this, it will be useful for others that don't.

I didn't know but will try it out. Thanks.

Couldn't solve the problem so the unit has gone back. The next one will be my third in 4 months. If this one is not perfect then I will ask for my money back as that is too many faulty units for me. Here's hoping......
