Bug Description

Ubuntu Touch (15.04 r3) Meizu MX4

When clicking at a link in the Telegram app, the web browser open - as expected - a new tab and starts loading the web page. While loading the web page is visible. When loading is done, the web page become white. I tried to zoom in or out in the page but the page stays white.

I’m not seeing that on my MX4, with the same test page. But it could very well be a case of the OOM killer killing the renderer process because the system is short on memory (bug #1478853).

@Thibaut: when the web page becomes white, the chrome (top bar with address bar, back and forward buttons) remains visible, right? If so, what happens if you focus the address bar and press Return on the OSK to load the page again?

I tried to reproduce the bug, but now the page is displayed correctly.

Yes, the address bar was visible and the "action menu" was clickable.

I did try to find out how to reload a web page, but couldn't find the action (too hidden). Therefore I can't tell what would have happened.

As I suggested, just focusing the address bar should select the URL and bring up the OSK. Just press the Return key on the OSK to start loading the page again.

I’m provisionnally marking this bug as a duplicate of bug #1478853, feel free to undo that if you think it’s a different issue.
