We recently flashed the Lollipop Preview System Image onto our Nexus 5.
 
Some of our apps can be launched from the built-in browser via custom URL 
scheme
 

<activity android:name="myActivity" ...
<intent-filter>
.
.
.
 <data android:scheme="myscheme" android:host="com.myhost.com" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>

 
This feature is not working with the new browser in Lollipop, we get a 
 

*Webpage not available.  *
 
The webpage at myscheme://com.myhost.com could not be loaded because:
 
net: ERR_UNKNOWN_URL_SCHEME

 
 
We installed the Firefox browser on this Nexus 5 and tried the same thing 
and it all worked fine.  And this same technique has worked for us since 
Android 2.1 thru KitKat.
 
I think I'm seeing a bug that is concerning as browser launch is a critical 
capability for us.  Wondering if anyone else has seen this and perhaps 
suggest a workaround?  Alternatively, I hope to get some attention at 
Google, and am unsure if this forum is a good way to do so.
 
Thanks in advance for any advice!
