Mobile site broken on Android

lewis82 · Nov 16, 2012, 11:57 AM

I used to be able to access the mobile site on my 2.3.4 Galaxy Ace. Now I can get the page to load correctly, but as soon as I scroll down a bit the screen becomes white and I can't scroll down anymore. There seems to be a kind of link (the whole screen gets selected) but clicking does nothing.

It happens both on the main page and on the forums.

Can you try a different browser?

Mobile site works fine on my Nexus 7 with Jelly Bean 4.2. Using Chrome.

I'll look into it. I use the stock browser because the space for apps is very limited - 180 MB only.

Have there been any updates rencently? It only started happening a week or two ago.

The first two are what causes crashing: AdChoice. Every time I see one of these apps it becomes blank.

The bottom two show an ad in the process of loading that did not cause crashing. I have my phone open right now on MacRumors and there is a Google ad which does not crash either.
