After the update to Froyo on my HTC Desire I got the common problem with com.android.browser wanting to force close every time I tried to use the Internet app. By mistake I found and easier solution than hard resetting the phone.
Under Settings/Application/Manage applications you have a tab saying All. Under that tab you’ll find the Internet app. Click on it and you’ll find a button called Clear data. I don’t know what kind of data you lose but now I don’t get the force close message at least. I didn’t have to backup everything, doing a hard reset and performing the update again.

Hi,
Please clearify:
“Under Settings/Application you have a that saying All.”
I have the same problem so I would like to understand your solution.
Best regards,

@bert: I forgot one step. It’s under Settings/Applications/Manage applications where you find the All tab and the Internet application. I hope that helped you more.
thanks, it works again….
Thanks for an idea, you sparked at thought from a angle I hadn’t given thoguht to yet. Now lets see if I can do something with it.
Thanks a lot! This really helped me.
This works! My husband’s phone kept having the same problem trying to get to the Internet. Luckily, I found your post and it’s working again.
