[Closed] Browsing the forum on Android kills my phone

Anyone got any ideas why browsing the forum on my phone kills the browser? It'll load the first couple of pages fine but then just hangs. I need to quit, force close and clear the cache before it will even load google again. Doesn't happen on any other website. I've tried the bog-standard Android browser, Opera mini, Opera, Dolphin and Dolphin HD and they all have the same issue.

Funnily enough it seems to have problems with the chrome browser on my PC. Google hates STW?

No issues here using android. Try clearing the internet cache first.

My htc android has a few probs with the forums - mainly the buttons like "Send Post" not working, or working intermittently. I mainly use Dolphin HD

Same here on an HTC Hero. Several pages in and freezes and force close. seems worse with picture heavy pages. Only happen since this morning so My guess is a add on or script or advert.
Or the hero not supporting something new on t'internet.
Chrome seems fine on my computer.

what quality level do you have pictures at? just wondering if you're pulling in a lot of unnecessary data?

Oddly my handset is an X10i also. Does it make any difference if you're using 3G or WiFi?
Are you running the latest firmware etc?

bigyinn, I'm running a custom Android 2.2.1 rom, but it's done it ever since the official SE/O2 2.1 update.
