  3. Download and Install Root File Explorer
  4. With the help of root file explorer ,Change the permission of browser.apk to-rw-rw-r(it will represented as 664)
  5. Now rename the BrowserProviderProxy.apk & BrowserProviderProxy.odex e.g. just add 1 in front of the file name 1BrowserProviderProxy.apk & 1BrowserProviderProxy.odex.If you don't rename the file,the browser will force close.
