Is anyone else having any problems with a Samsung Galaxy Tab freezing when on these boards ?

This only happens when I am on Talk Quesada or Costa Blanca forum, I know that they are sister sites.

The Tab works perfectly on all other sites.

I have done all the usual clean up and reboot stuff.

This has been happening for about a month now, I did report it to admin who didn't respond and the issues remain.

Thanks, Ken.

You may find a few thoughts at the below link, how old is the tab and which browser including browser version are you using.

The tablet is app 4 years old and I am using the latest version of Google Chrome, never had issues with this set up until the last month.

This important thing here is, the tab works perfectly everywhere else except on these boards.

Understand what your saying that tab only started doing this a month ago and works well on every other site, conversely if hundreds or even thousands of other forum users are using the site without issue's then it would point to your tab or the tabs apps that are causing the issue.

If it happened to me I would install Opera/ another browser and see if the problem remains, afraid there is no easy answer, the next chrome update could quite easily put things right.

Using a Galaxy S8 phone, which I guess would be much the same as a tablet under the hood, and no problems.

Have you tried the Samsung Internet browser, it's really quite good with lots of options for ad blocking, pretty much the deciding factor in a browser for me!

Thankyou, I agree with you but as I only posted this question app 1 hr ago and so far you are the only one to reply.

That was the thrust of the question really, if there was anyone else ?

No, not tried Samsung browser as I like Chrome and it's translation features.

But thanks for letting me know that you arn't having the same issues, which was the point of my post.

How much memory have you  got left on your tablet. If you are close to the limit it could well be giving you problems.  If you haven’t already then clear your cache, browsing history, remove links in favourites you no longer require and check out all your download folders.

If you’ve done all that and space isn’t an issue, try using another browser as suggested. Nearly all browsers have translate facilities built into them, but if you really prefer Chrome, you could just try another browser for accessing both of these forums.

Loads of clear space Lynn, all procedural stuff completed.

It's confusing me why it only happens on these boards when it never did ?
