Answer 1

Add Permission Internet permission in manifest.

as <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>

This code it working

  public class WebActivity extends Activity {
  WebView wv;

 String url="http://www.teluguoneradio.com/rssHostDescr.php?hostId=147";

 @Override
 protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_web);
    wv=(WebView)findViewById(R.id.webUrl_WEB);



WebSettings webSettings = wv.getSettings();
    wv.getSettings().setLoadWithOverviewMode(true);
    wv.getSettings().setUseWideViewPort(true);
    wv.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
    wv.getSettings().setPluginState(PluginState.ON);


    wv.setWebViewClient(new myWebClient());

    wv.loadUrl(url);
}




public class myWebClient extends WebViewClient {
    @Override
    public void onPageStarted(WebView view, String url, Bitmap favicon) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        super.onPageStarted(view, url, favicon);
    }

    @Override
    public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub

        view.loadUrl(url);
        return true;

    }
}

Answer 2

maybe SSL

    @Override
    public void onReceivedSslError(WebView view, SslErrorHandler handler, SslError error) {
        // ignore ssl error
        if (handler != null){
            handler.proceed();
        } else {
            super.onReceivedSslError(view, null, error);
        }
    }

First, check if you have internet permission in Manifest file.

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

You can then add following code in onCreate() or initialize() method-

final WebView webview = (WebView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.webview);
        webview.setWebViewClient(new MyWebViewClient());
        webview.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(false);
        webview.getSettings().setSupportZoom(false);
        webview.getSettings().setJavaScriptCanOpenWindowsAutomatically(true);
        webview.getSettings().setAllowFileAccess(true);
        webview.getSettings().setDomStorageEnabled(true);
        webview.loadUrl(URL);

And write a class to handle callbacks of webview -

public class MyWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
        @Override
        public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
                           //your handling...
                return super.shouldOverrideUrlLoading(view, url);
        }
    }

in same class, you can also use other important callbacks such as -

- onPageStarted()
- onPageFinished()
- onReceivedSslError()

Also, you can add "SwipeRefreshLayout" to enable swipe refresh and refresh the webview.

<android.support.v4.widget.SwipeRefreshLayout
        android:id="@+id/swipeRefreshLayout"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent">
        <WebView
            android:id="@+id/webview"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent" />
    </android.support.v4.widget.SwipeRefreshLayout>

And refresh the webview when user swipes screen:

SwipeRefreshLayout mSwipeRefreshLayout = (SwipeRefreshLayout) findViewById(R.id.swipeRefreshLayout);
            mSwipeRefreshLayout.setOnRefreshListener(new SwipeRefreshLayout.OnRefreshListener() {
                @Override
                public void onRefresh() {
                    new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
                        @Override
                        public void run() {
                            mSwipeRefreshLayout.setRefreshing(false);
                            webview.reload();
                        }
                    }, 3000);
                }
            });

Answer 4

The simplest solution is to go to your XML layout containing your webview. Change your android:layout_width and android:layout_height from "wrap_content" to "match_parent".

  <WebView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:id="@+id/webView"/>

Answer 5

Note : Make sure internet permission is given.

In android 9.0,

Webview or Imageloader can not load url or image because android 9 have network security issue which need to be enable by manifest file for all sub domain. so either you can add security config file.

1. Add @xml/network_security_config into your resources:

<network-security-config>
    <domain-config cleartextTrafficPermitted="true">
    <domain includeSubdomains="true">www.google.com</domain>
    </domain-config>
</network-security-config>

2. Add this security config to your Manifest like this:

<application
   
    android:networkSecurityConfig="@xml/network_security_config"
    ...>
</application>

if you want to allow all sub domain

<application
   android:usesCleartextTraffic="true"
    ...>
</application>

Note: To solve the problem, don't use both of point 2 (android:networkSecurityConfig="@xml/network_security_config" and android:usesCleartextTraffic="true") choose one of them

Answer 6

Just as an alternative solution:

For me webView.getSettings().setUserAgentString("Android WebView") did the trick.

I already had implemented INTERNET permission and WebViewClient as well as WebChromeClient
