[Q] How do I get Chrome Beta/Stable to work?

[v1n337]

Ok, so I'd had two ICS ROMs on my phone till date\

• Quarx's CM9 Nightly for Defy+
• Fuzz's CM9 euroskank kang for Defy+

I was able to install Chrome Beta and Stable on both these ROMs, but am unable to render any page in the browser. Here are some screenshots

Connectivity to my data network is obviously not a problem since I'm being offered search suggestions and the progress bar is loading.

My build.prop already has the ICS id in it.

I've browsed the forums and people have suggested that this problem is caused by the lack of Hardware Acceleration(HWA).

So can anyone either guide me on how to go about fixing this? Or maybe a suggest a full HWA enabled ROM for me?

Thanks!

Chrome is not yet stable on any cm9 rom.

Chrome is not yet stable on any cm9 rom.

Thanks for replying, but stability isn't even the issue here. I've actually never been able to get a [age to render despite having no trouble installing. I've seen other people on custom ROMs using Chrome.

Anyway, is there no ROM out there supporting full HWA?

No.
Chrome doesn't work on any rom.

Regarding hwa, the closest we've got is epsylon3's rom ,where barring few apps like (play store,chrome etc) ,everything else works.
but still its a no go for chrome !

chrome will NEVER work on the defy/defy+. epsylon stated that our froyo/gb 3d driver lacks some opengl extensions chrome (and ics/hwa) would need, and with the locked bootloader we cant implement the ics driver. sorry to be the one bringin the bad news. :/
