Can you access a known website without making a search?

Yes, when I enter a URL with a domain, e.g. forum.sailfishos.org, so it loads the page and displays it correctly

Are you still able to reproduce this bug?

No, I can not. I already have version 4.4 and this error does not occur there.

I had the same experience with 4.3 (on a volla phone) and since 4.4 have not had the issue.

I started to experience this yesterday suddenly with no apparent reason.
I had updated my X10III to 5.0.0.55 couple of weeks ago, so I don’t think the update would have triggered this…(?)

Reboot and changing search engine didn’t help on this.

For me the same. With Xperia 10 III Silica browser bar doesn’t search anymore, as well as the search button on the top menu I tried resetting the browser to the default values but nothing

Already reported that the fix will come in one of the future RCs.

Not fixed for me in 5.0.0.61, it always chose first search option Bing, no matter what search engine choosen.
