hi there

i dont know what the problem here is.

but this happened only recently, my web browser is soooooo slow, through wifi and hsdpa, it took 6 minutes to load google. i turned the phone off and on and it worked a bit better but still slow, cleared cache and everything. the cache size is 40mb.


shall i reflash the device? or is there an app that is affecting it?

kind regards

Six minutes to load Google is absolutely not normal. I have never seen that. I did improve my browser performance a little by changing the DNS servers for my connections to Google's DNS servers. Seemed to help lookup performance just a bit. YMMV

Cant say ive ever had this issue, what area are you in? What applications do you have on your phone. Google loads in less than 1-2 seconds for me with 3.5 g, and less than 10 seconds on Edge..... I think you may have a software issue

Where did you go to change your DNS options for the web browser?

It's not for the browser itself, its for a connection.

Settings -> Internet Connections -> Connections -> *connection you want to modify* -> Edit -> Next -> Next -> Advanced -> IP Addresses

Deselect "Auto-retrieve DNS" and set your addresses manually. Google's is 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4. Keep in mind that there are other free DNS services as well that may perform even better than Google's for you. Or your existing servers may perform better. Or you may see no difference.

Today I installed the mozilla firefox and mozilla runtime updates. I must say that, even if it's still slow, firefox browser has improved a lot. It loads faster and never crashes. Anyway the default browser is still better.. ;D

Have you tried to delete browser history first. There is a known bug there.
