I had the same issue and have been doing some searching to look for possible answers to this problem.

Hacking the Browser Agent might work but it's not really a good idea.

The solution given in this post also worked for me and I think is a better solution: Problems loading mobile.twitter in webview

Hope that helps.

try this:

Uri uri = Uri.parse(Place your URL here);
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri);
startActivity(intent);

noo try it its a web view to add aweb view inside yout own layout. You can edit the Layout as you want.. this is just an example how to add the webview inside your activity and layout. — Shah, Aug 01 '11 at 12:51
Just add the WebView element where you want in the layout and then add the implementation where you have used the corressponding layout. — Shah, Aug 01 '11 at 12:52
I am trying load weburl in webview but every time I goto browser, there is any way to stay in current activity and load weburl in webview. If I load data like webView.loaddata(), then it's open in current activity, I don't know why that happen — Hitesh Dhamshaniya, Jan 23 '12 at 06:37
