Today I also have a problem with accessing websites from webapps, e.g. Facebook. It used to be that a link would open a website in the webapp, but now it gives a blank window. There is no option to cancel or go back to the webapp, it is frozen.
Only way out is to close webapp. And, as already reported, text messaging also closes when opening. Now photo gallery (“Events”) also crashes on opening. I mention these because I think they must be related. Either a bug in Ubuntu phone, or corrupted files somewhere, or maybe even a hardware fault? It's a BQ Aquarius E45. purcc On Saturday, 27 August 2016 00:28:37 BST, Kavoura <da...@daking.org> wrote: > I tried renaming files in /home/phablet/.local/share/webbrowser-app/ but > nothing made any difference, the web browser still did not work. > > I looked for > /home/phablet/.cache/upstart/application-legacy-webbrowser-app-.log > but could not find any such file. > > > On 26/08/16 18:17, Olivier Tilloy wrote: > >> You could try moving the files under /home/phablet/.local/share >> /webbrowser-app/ out of the way, one by one, until you find the >> corrupted one.

I went to use it, and wanted to access my History, as all tabs had disappeared that had previously been open. Then webbrowser-app froze, and I had to close it. I tried to reopen, but as soon as I do, it crashes, closes right away. I tried rebooting the phone, but that did not help. Nothing else was running at the time it froze. Even after another reboot, I have not been able to open the web browser. Web apps, like Facebook, still work okay with no problems. So how would I fix this? Is there a file to delete or edit in the filesystem? I have searched online already and found no answer.
