flash support isn't coming back.
as of android 4.4 flash support is completely gone, even sideloading flash and using a browser that still tries to use flash won't work. -

Fixing top crashes is ignorant? Couple hundred thousands had crashes mentioned in this changelog.

To be honest... you did in your previous post, ... the thing with tabs reloading in the backround (or the sad cat)... those might be crashes of the process that was handling this tab and we want to gracefully give back you the content that you had without crashing everything.

Well, yes. Comments from here, Google Play, bugs reported, comments under engadget or android police posts - those are my favourite places.

Thx for your reply.
This means when my background tabs are reloading every 30-60 sec when I just move to another tab, these tabs crashed ? This is sad because for me that means the tabs always crash when I am not having them in the foreground..
I thought it was a new feature. I d be glad to have this fixed, because apart from the fact that I can't disable discovery, this browser has good potential.
By the way, I noticed that on the latest beta, if you zoom on a page and you are on the left corner, you cannot pan to the right -> some content is not accessable because it is past the screen. This works fine in the stable though.

I've seen your comments about discovery, you know that if you don't swipe there (leave it alone) there won't be any traffic in the background?
We only fetch few article previews (really low ammount of data) at startup to fill the screen (avoiding white area visible for the user), and then we wait for user to go there and start swiping or pressing refresh button. So if you are worried by data usage - don't be... it's minimal if you'll leave it alone.

Hmm... can't reproduce, on what site are you seeing this? Do you have text-wrap enabled?

The no pan bug has disappeared after me rebooting the browser. Ghis was on focus.de, ard.de and zeit.de and some blogspot anf thumblr sites. All the pages had in common that they had html5 video embedded.
Currently can't reproduce it too.
About discovery. This is good to know. I travel a lot and use roaming, each kb starts to count. All apps are usually behind droidwall apart from my browser.. But if the traffic is minimal that is fine. I d appreciate if there would be an option to deactivate though ;).
Currently downgraded my Opera Browser to version 15. The reloading tabs isn't present there on my device. Ghe current version is definetly faster, but the usability matters more.
I heard current Beta supports flash? Tried a site but only got the message plugin not active or so.

Browser is virtually useless until you get the cache management fixed, pages should not have to be reloaded every time you switch tabs and go back. No other android browser I've tried suffers like this.

Opera 18 for Android:
is this a special feature: after >Enter< on a Webpage or Link, the screen is darkened for about 1 second?
