[Q] How do I fix SSL Errors from Google on a custom ROM?

[NickC713]

I recently started using Dirty Unicorns 4.4.4 for my Evo and it's really great, but I'm having a problem. Any time I try to go to a HTTPS site from Google, I'll get an error saying "Connection Problem - net::ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR" or "Connection Problem - net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE" and I don't know what to do to fix it. I originally thought it was just the stock browser and the Gapps package that I installed with the ROM, but then I tried it on Chrome and Lightning Browser too and it's the exact same thing. For example, if I go to news.google.com it works completely fine, but if I'm on the Google home page and I tap News, which takes me to the HTTPS site, it always has an error message. I think it's only when accessing Google sites, I've gone to other HTTPS sites and it's been fine. It's not something wrong with DU necessarily, I've seen this issue brought up a lot in forums dealing with CyanogenMod, and sometimes about Chrome, but I've never seen a definitive fix or even a reason why this is happening to users with custom ROMS. Any help would be great, I'm not the only one having this problem and it would be nice to get an answer. It's preventing me from using some apps. Thanks ahead of time for any help if anyone has a solution or some advice.

Also I just noticed that it's also keeping me from seeing images in GMail. I wouldn't think that I'm the only one having this problem haha, if anyone knows any fixes I'd really appreciate it
