Question

Samsung S6 BLUE Loading Box on Chrome, no startup sound

Apr 1, 2016 2:51PM PDT

Samsung S6 BLUE Loading Box on Chrome, no startup sound

1. Galaxy S6 Verizon Marshmallow load of this site: forums.androidcentral.com shows blue LOADING box

Whenever I bring up this site with Chrome OR Firefox on Android S6 with marshmallow the screen loads but I have a blue box in the center of screen that says LOADING. It does not go away. Nor does it load the rest of the screen,
This happens in both browsers. If I disable pop-ups, same thing.If I request desktop site same thing but in different location.

This freezes use of the site except for any other buttons that may appear above this message.
I did clear cache/data and history for Chrome and Firefox
I did several restarts.
I did wipe the phone cache.
Does not matter if Wifi is on or off
Does not matter if Power saving is on or off

Thoughts??

NO big deal . Did not notice same LOADING box behavior yet on other sites.Not sure it happened n Lollipop.

2. START UP SOUNDS
Also noticed (not a big deal) that the start up sounds are now gone with Marshmallow. Only can get back by routing I read on XDA forum

Thanks for any feedback

Peter

Clarification Request
What is this "load"?

Is this some root or other ROM?

No this is stock Android without any root or rom update. I just wanted to see if other people had this issue where that blue box appears on that same website.

I hate this marshmallow as it had issues with getting voicemail messages while Wi-Fi is on which I never had an issue before.

Thank you, Peter

Samsungs don't come with stock Android.

I have found folk that load a ROM and call it "stock Android." Then you write ". Only can get back by routing I read on XDA forum" which must be a spelling error.

So it's rooted and maybe more. I find I have to let Samsung restore it to the factory image when all this happens.

Which I can add

That rooting and non-stock ROMS are best left to folk that can accept problems like these.
