I recently upgraded to the latest os for the K3, 3.4.2, and just as was with the 3.4 that I had on previously, my browser fails to run at all. It even freezes and I have to hard reboot.

To note, I have had this problem for a while now, noticing first I think when upgrading to 3.4 (never upgrade 3.4.1). I read somewhere it was a security credential issue that Amazon fixed in 3.4.1, but it does not work for me even after the latest upgrade.

Also, I am on a Jailbroken K3, with all the bells and whistles that I have used for years (latest versions, fyi). I had no issues previously, but do think the problem first occurred when I last updated (to 3.4).

Finally, the strange thing is if I remove my hacks in reverse order, and eventually factory reset, the browser works (at least the previous time I did this). I can even install Duokan 2014 and it remained working. But then after the hacks installed it fails. The thing is I don't see why any of them would affect things.

Any help?
