Please, always add your Vivaldi, Android version and your device.

@mib2berlin I am using a Galaxy S23 Ultra, One UI 6.1, Android 14, up-to-date.
Not long ago, it was working corectly, It seems the crash has to do with a recent update (Vivaldi or phone-wise). I tried to clear the app cache, but to no avail. G4Media is the only site I see crashing. -
@vladrusu
Hm, it is maybe only happen on Android 14 devices or a Samsung only bug, we really have some.
If another user can reproduce it you can report it to the bug tracker but it make no sense if nobody else can reproduce it.Cheers, mib

@mib2berlin If it is a Samsung bug, it doesn't apply to tablets. Note that Vivaldi released an update today, he may want to check if that is available yet.

@sgunhouse I have the latest version. Strangely enough, I tested the website (g4media.ro) in Incognito mode, and in works!
But in normal mode, it crashes.... I tried clearing all the domain cookies from the Settings, but it makes no difference... -
@vladrusu
Did you cleaning the cache in Vivaldi or in the Android setting?
This would wipe all data of Vivaldi and is more or less a clean install, you loose all your settings, bookmarks and so forth.
If you use sync and don't have hundreds of tabs open it's maybe the only way to get Vivaldi in clean state.
I use a feature called "Dual Apps" on my system, it create a clean clone of the installed Vivaldi, does Samsung have a similar feature? -

You might want to try updating Vivaldi or clearing its cache. If the issue persists, consider using a different browser to visit the site. For a smoother experience, you could also try the best web browsers options available to see if they handle the site better.

@Eren1107 Thanks! I cleared the cache... wipe all data and sync again ... nothing works.
Curiously, the site loads ok if I open it in private browsing. :)))
I found it baffling that Vivaldi does not have an option to report that crash... at least on mobile. -
@vladrusu

@vladrusu Sorry! No crash.

@vladrusu
Can you try to install the Vivaldi snapshot (Beta)?
It is independent to your stable install, if is work there it is maybe something in you user profile broken in stable.
Search for Vivaldi snapshot in the Playstore. -
Hi again,
I confirm that it works in Vivaldi Snapshot. Probably something is broken in my profile. -
@vladrusu
Hm, if you use sync it is not much work to reinstall Vivaldi, you loose most of your settings, other data like bookmarks, passwords you get back with sync.
As it is only this page it depends how much work it is for you. -
Hi all,
I confirm that the issue was fixed by totally wiping the app, reinstall, and then re-sync again.
So, it was an issue with the profile, apparently.
