             Bug #: 37454
           Summary: Back button doesn't go back
           Product: Wikimedia Mobile
           Version: .5
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Generic
        AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
        ReportedBy: rlb.gene...@gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---


I'm experiencing a consistent issue where it will not "go back". Pressing the
back button causes a refresh event (the spinner icon appears) but the same page
is displayed.  This doesn't happen every time but often, maybe 50%.

This is on a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and I almost always use my tab in portrait
mode when reading, including using wikipedia beta.

I was able to reproduce this behavior consistently following the steps below:

1) Search for "arthur c. clarke".
2) Click the link "Childhood's End" under "Notable works".
3) Click on the link "The Songs of Distant Earth" in the second paragraph.
4) Click "Plot Summary" to expand that section.
5) Click the link "cryonic suspension" in the second paragraph of that section.
6) Touch the back button.

Rather than going back to the previous page, the spinner displays as if loading
a page but the same page appears.

I've had this occur on many other pages at many other times but these
particular steps are consistently reproducible for me.
