I'm attempting to simply load any webpage using Google Chrome, however all that happens is that the progress bar appears, but nothing ever loads regardless of the website that I try to load. The other thing that happens is that sometimes Chrome just sits on the loading screen itself and doesn't finish loading when started.
If you want to use both vukan and chrome on emulator, just mark vulkan flag as disabled in chrome://flags and re-enable Vulkan on emulator by changing Vulkan value to on or deleting advancedFeatures.ini.
on android make sure you create a device that has playstore option(sign) and uses "Software-GLE 2.0" in Emulated performance:Graphics(might be needed that you actually log in in playstore via emulator to update emulator chrome version)
How to: On Android studio, click on the Tools menu at the top, click SDK Manager then, click on SDK Tools Tab, you'd see a list of SDK developer tools.Look for Android emulator and other packages that requires update(for those installed). Update them. Go to your device manager, wipe data and relaunch your AVD, it should work!
If you were on iPhone or iPad then when you open up your bookmarks you would have to go back to where you can choose like the main menu, then you would hit the little red square with an up arrow plus on the bottom left and choose Import.
Yes, the only way on Android is to import them on your laptop/desktop and sync to Android. You have to use laptop/desktop in any case to export them right? So you can use laptop/desktop Brave and sync into Android.
Thanks everyone for your help. Actually this option of import, I think was present in the beginning for android because when I searched on Google, all procedure was written & I followed but at the end when I went back to Brave, after taking a backup of the passwords, I found that there was no option of import anymore on Android.
Unfortunate that this option is present for iPhone but not Android devices.
I will say that I have been considering switching away from Chrome/Google for some time and I find it a bit demotivating that, as soon as I make the attempt, I am stymied from completing the swap. I am traveling at the moment without access to my home computer, so I really wish Brave would allow me to import my passwords via my phone browser.
When using Kiwi mobile browser with chrome extensions, I do not experience bugs. I get the same experience as when using a chromium desktop browser, such as brave, with chrome extensions.
I would most appreciate it if I could use a mobile chromium browser that allows me to install chrome extensions, without google cookie warning.
My son managed to click on something and infected his android mobile. Multiple chrome popups suggesting the phone has been hacked and click on a big red button for Mcafee to clean the phone(Mcafee not installed). Full scan of Malwarebytes (full paid version) fails to detect.
These types of ads are usually browser related. This is caused by the way browsers handle redirections executed by JavaScript code. Most browsers do not do a great job of preventing these redirects, which can also cause ad pop-ups. Unethical advertising affiliates are aware of this and exploit this weakness. Even if an advertising affiliate is shut down for using this exploit, they just come back with a different affiliate id and are right back at it.
I created a little web app to help at work. Just some HTML and JavaScript, and before Android started enforcing the Scoped Storage, I had no issues using it. Now when I try to load the URL (ie: file:///storage/emulated/0/__MyDocs/SignInTracker.html) I get an access denied error.
I could use Firefox, but it seems to be because it's not yet using the Scoped Storage standard, which if I understand correctly, will be a requirement in the next Android version, so that means I cannot rely on it working in the future. Also, Firefox just doesn't run as nicely as Chrome.
Is there a proper way for a non-Android-developer to use a local web app like this? Is there perhaps a location on the phone where I can place my .html and .js files that will allow Chrome to access them without issues? At work, I'm not online or connected to anything, so loading from another server/computer is not an option.
You can put your documents into the folder Android/data/com.android.chrome/files/Download/ in the internal storage. It's absolute path is /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.android.chrome/files/Download/ or /sdcard/Android/data/com.android.chrome/files/Download/. This is the location where Chrome stores any downloaded files and therefore, this the only location where Chrome can access the files. But remember, uninstalling Chrome will delete this directory.
This means that on Android 11, the folder from which Chrome can read local (m)HTML is /Download folder, not Android/data/com.android.chrome/files/Download in internal or external storage space like in Android 10.
Thus, (m)HTML files saved into /Download folder with Chrome (with .mhtml extension from older times or with manually added extension by renaming saved mhtml files without extension - from certain time Chrome stopped to append .mhtml extension to saved mhtml files :) on my devices, I guess from upgrading to Android 10)
This did not work for the mhtml files which have been moved to other folders and then returned to /Download folder. (And because of collecting saved mhtml files in many different folders, I have many mhtml files which are necessary to copy/move back to /Download folder prior to opening but they still cannot be opened)
I need to use Total Commander's "Open with" functionality with file://url option checked, then choose Chrome in order to open (mhtml) file with Chrome (with file://url checked, the Chrome is in the list to choose from, with file://url option unchecked, it is not listed in the list) or to browse local files in internal storage directly in Chrome (file manager My Files provided with the device was unusable to choose mhtml files to be opened with Chrome)
(mhtml) files from /Download folder opened in this way are opened as offline versions of downloaded web pages - but only if the file was not moved and returned back to /Download folder, otherwise you get Access Denied message. Also, opening (mhtml) files in this way using Total Commander, but from other folders than /Download folder, leads to Access Denied message
Opening mhtml files from any folder using Total Commander, but with file://url option unchecked (in this case, the Chrome is not in 1st list, so you need to choose "Open with *" option with folder icon from the list and subsequently choose Chrome from next list) behaves differently. Opening in such a way leads not to successful opening or Access Denied message but to Save as Dialog Form in which one can choose also if the resaved mhtml file should be saved to internal storage or external SD card (if present). In this way, resaved mhtml files in /Download folder (on internal or external storage space) can be now opened using Total Commander "Open with" dialog with checked file://url option.
Hi. For some reason, Zoom stopped launching meetings through the browser in Chrome on my android. When I choose the meeting from my calendar, it will ask me to launch the meeting, and when selected, nothing happens. I uninstalled the zoom app, and now I can't finish the process of logging in because of course, it will not launch. Can someone please help?

I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing difficulties launching Zoom meetings through the browser on your Android device. Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try to resolve the issue. Firstly, clear the cache and data of the Chrome browser on your device. This can help resolve any temporary issues or conflicts that may be causing the problem. If that doesn't work, try using a different browser on your Android device, such as Firefox or Microsoft Edge, to see if the issue persists. Additionally, make sure that your Chrome browser and Zoom app (if reinstalled) are both up to date. Updating the apps can help ensure compatibility and resolve any known bugs.
Google Chrome is a web browser developed by Google. It was first released in 2008 for Microsoft Windows, built with free software components from Apple WebKit and Mozilla Firefox.[16] Versions were later released for Linux, macOS, iOS, and also for Android, where it is the default browser.[17] The browser is also the main component of ChromeOS, where it serves as the platform for web applications.
Most of Chrome's source code comes from Google's free and open-source software project Chromium, but Chrome is licensed as proprietary freeware.[15] WebKit was the original rendering engine, but Google eventually forked it to create the Blink engine;[18] all Chrome variants except iOS used Blink as of 2017.[19]
As of April 2024[update], StatCounter estimates that Chrome has a 65% worldwide browser market share (after peaking at 72.38% in November 2018) on personal computers (PC),[20] is most used on tablets (having surpassed Safari), and is also dominant on smartphones.[21][22] With a market share of 65% across all platforms combined, Chrome is the most used web browser in the world today.[23]
Google Chief Executive Eric Schmidt was previously involved in the "browser wars", a part of U.S. corporate history, and opposed the expansion of the company into such a new area. However, Google co-founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page spearheaded a software demonstration that pushed Schmidt into making Chrome a core business priority, which resulted in commercial success.[24] Because of the proliferation of Chrome, Google has expanded the "Chrome" brand name to other products. These include not just ChromeOS but also Chromecast, Chromebook, Chromebit, Chromebox, and Chromebase.
