Guest warwound Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 Hi. I have the MCR r8 ROM on my Vega. I've noticed that if i use the stock browser and search from the address bar that the browser force closes as soon as i hit the go arrow to the right of the sidebar. I've rebooted and it still happens. A search of the forum comes up with nothing. Does anyone else get this with the stock browser on MCR r8? warwound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the arrow you refer to is on the notification bar then this is the BACK button and will just go to your previous screen whatever that was. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest warwound Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 Hi. Look at this screencast: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Q7L5rp3UFQ I type some text into the address bar and hit the (go?) arrow button to the right of the address bar and the browser force closes with the dialog box seen. warwound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has either changed layout in R8 or it could be as I'm using a keyboard app called Smart Keyboard Pro off the Market which trips in as soon as I click on any text field inn the browser or other app whereas you seem to be using the default Android keyboard. Can only suggest you try another keyboard app to see if problem goes away. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest justmac Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 (edited) I have this exact same problem on my Desire which runs OpenDesire by AdamG but never bothered trying to fix it. I think its caused by removing the Google Search widget, not being sure I removed the widget from the MCR r8 ROM and had the same problem on my Vega. After reinstalling with the widget included searching from the address bar works fine. Hi. I have the MCR r8 ROM on my Vega.

I'm actually using the Gingerbread keyboard 1.0.11 that's part of the current FLB ROM for the San Francisco! That could be the problem but... I think its caused by removing the Google Search widget, not being sure I removed the widget from my MCR r8 ROM and had the same problem on my Vega. After reinstalling with the widget included searching from the address bar works fine. That could well be it - i didn't include the Google Search widget when i baked the MCR r8 ROM. I might install it but am not too bothered about searching from the address bar. [edit]Yep it needed the Google Search widget installed - that's fixed the FC issue[/edit] Thanks for the help. warwound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
