I have gotten at-least 2 report on the other forum about Andromium users not able to show any content on the Andromium browser. We have not encounter this issue before in our internal testing, so we need a little bit information from our users:
1. What is the device(s) you are running Andromium OS on.
2. What is the Android OS and/or ROM version of the device
3. How you are running Andromium OS: Chromecast or HDMI connection to TV.
4. Did you restarting the phone after installing Andromium OS?
5. Have you gone into the browser setting menu, and enable HTML Video (hardware acceleration)? if not please try turning it on, restart the browser and see if that fixes the issues.
Thank you for your assistance on isolating this bug.

As i see it, this app has been created to replace a computer and to increase productivity. So you connect it to a big screen, attach a mouse & keyboard and there is your computer. Now why would you use Youtube under Andromium on a 4.6" instead of Android native app? Non-sense.
I have connected my Padfone to TV through Slimport, attached bluetooth mouse & keyboard and i was able to multitask easily. Browsing web, opening microsoft office, playing minesweeper, all of this while playing youtube in another window. I really don't see the point of using Andromium on a small screen.

It is not meant to be used on a small screen. At first you had to be using all the features to make it work (Tv, keyboard, mouse and charging). There's no point to use it on a 4inch screen unless you have bionical eyes... I'm typing from my nexus 4 at the moment and I miss andromium on my Tv haha. By the way guys, how do you enable HTML videos? when I click on the settings I get a text screen that says something about HTML videos but no checker box or anything. Thanks! |

Oh I see! Sorry!
Anyone knows how to turn on HTML videos on?
I have it on my cellphone running but not on Andromium apparently. When I go to the broswer's settings there's no checker box just a message.

Hi Purplemikey, hope that you are now able to start watching online videos.
Hi Kahun, thank you for all the support you been giving fellow users in the forum, just a follow up with the browser display webpage issues, did that get fixed after you turn on HTML 5 video or enable hardware rendering layer on your device? Or do you still need to resize the browser for the page to show up?

I have not restarted my device yet but I restarted the browser. I will let you know when I restart my phone later tonight. Right now I'm just surfing the web on my TV with your browser  |

Hi Purplemikey, for most site, the video won't auto start on Andromium Browser (Youtube, Viemo...) you will have to click the play button 1 to 3 times (depend on the power of the SoC inside your phone), for it to start. Give that a try and let me know.
I hope that the website won't display until resize issues is also solved on Kahun's device.
Glad to hear that you enjoying Andromium, keep reporting back. I also working hard on couple very exiting items as well. Will share later on this week, once more progress is made.
Best,
-Gordon

Hi Gordon, I can't really confirm that it is working now as my browser starts as a small window every time and I need to maximize it which was a way to fix the problem. I also can confirm that YouTube videos are working correctly no problem at all. |
