S60 Browser Bug; Blank Back Thumbnails

by Zach at 10:07 am | May 12th, 2008 | Category: Web

Odd that I haven’t seen any mention of this this before because it really does annoy me. Am I the only one whose N95 8GB browser fails to render thumbnails properly for the “Back” screen? Is it an early firmware bug that was resolved with the v20 upgrade in Europe? It works sometimes but more often than not, I have at least one or two blank thumbnails with each session. Am I the only one?

Really Mark? I've never seen this on a single other handset I've used - N95-1, N95-3, N73, N80, N80ie, etc. I use the back function all the time also. Weird...

See it on the E61i as well, but it's an older version than what you have. I notice it happens primarily when I reload a page, or go back once, go somewhere else, and try to go back again.

I'm using Opera Mini 4.1 pretty exclusively now.

I can confirm experiencing this on both Nseries and Eseries and on different phones. I just checked, having this on my E90 too.

I've stepped into a parallel universe! Usually I'm the one experiencing the weird bugs that no one's ever seen. Now I'm the only one who hasn't ever seen this on another device... !

Yeah, I see this all the time on my N95-3. Actually, I rarely get treated to proper thumbnails in my browser. My history almost entirely consists of completely blank thumbnails. I'm sure it will be fixed in the firmware release that's coming up ... oh wait, nevermind.

I've noticed them as well on my N82. It's nothing too serious, and Symbian is, unfortunately, one big pile of bugs by itself, so it doesn't make me much impression.

I also have discovered the bug, seems to occure on all S60v3 devices. There\'s an even more annoying bug that several pages are not even displayed with white thumbnails, they are simply not there...

I have it on the N75 as well. In my case, it always seemed related to memory issues with the Nokia Web Browser. The browser seems to have a memory leak in some areas, and it just might be that this is only really seen when the back button is envoked, or other high memory tasks are being done.

I have this problem but I am more annoyed by the slow reloading of pages from the cache which is why I use Opera Mini for almost everything.

You're not the only one, and the 95 -x isn't the only ones... 73, and 82 here...

such is life... at least it's the back thumb, and we hopefully can remember that far back... ;)
