browser stuck in zoom mode

[solaris]

i've had this issue on the stock browser, chrome and ucweb browser. only solution i've found is to power cycle. the browser gets stuck in zoom mode, and i am unable to click on any links, type in any text (though the keyboard does pop up if i am not docked), or close the current tab. if i click the X to close a tab in ucweb, the option is to close ALL tabs. if i kill the browser and restart it, it is in the same state as before. only a reboot seems to solve this. any suggestions?

Welcome to the forum Solaris! A few suggestion: 1) a hard reset (turn off, press power + volume down until white instructions appear in upper left of screen; let go and allow to boot)2) clear everything for those apps in Settings, eg-cache, data, etc. 3) try a different browser, Boat is a good one! Let us know if any of those helpl

Welcome to the forum

I agree that sounds very odd - could be caused by any number of things, but let's start with...
Settings, apps, all - find the browsers concerned and clear the cache, data & force close them (which will delete all the locally stored bookmarks)
Then do a cold boot (link in signature)

I'm moving your thread to our applications section as it refers to applications.

Let us know how you get on, please.
