Android: WebView opens links in my app on my phone, but in browser on emulator

I have a WebView in my app where I load some internet address. I want when a user clicks on a link on that internet page, the default browser to be opened with the respective link. And I have implemented the following:
//set the addBanner
WebView wv = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.adBanner);
WebViewClient wvc = new WebViewClient(){
//open adds in new browser
#Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView wv, String url) {
Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW).setData(Uri.parse(url));
wv.getContext().startActivity(i);
return true;
}
};
wv.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
wv.setWebViewClient(wvc);
wv.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient()); //this was desperate attempt :)
wv.loadUrl(AdvertisementURL);
It works very well in emulator (Nexus 5, API 23; and some other emulators, too) - when I click on a link, new Browser activity is opened with the expected page on it. But on my phone (Android 4.2.2) - the links open in my app, and not in an external browser.
Why is this happening? And is there a way to fix it? Thanks a lot!

Web mobile app opening in browser but not in webview

I have problem using webview. When I am opening web mobile url in android browser it is opening perfectly but when i am using webView it is not rendering any view and stuck displaying a progress bar.
I am using below code:
myWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.ctn_webview);
WebSettings webSetting = myWebView.getSettings();
webSetting.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webSetting.setDomStorageEnabled(true);
webSetting.setAppCacheEnabled(true);
webSetting.setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
webSetting.setJavaScriptCanOpenWindowsAutomatically(true);
webSetting.setGeolocationDatabasePath("/data/data/<my-app-pkg>/databases");
webSetting.setGeolocationEnabled(true);
webSetting.setDatabasePath("/data/data/<my-app-pkg>/databases");
webSetting.setDatabaseEnabled(true);
webSetting.setAllowFileAccess(true);
myWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
myWebView.loadUrl(myUrl);
Please note that the page is behind login credential so it redirects to many url in between to reach final page. The login page workes perfectly and after authentication i am redirected to final page where I see a round progress moving (image below). There it should render many buttons and form stuff.
Also when I am opening the same url in the browser in emulator it is working perfectly.
I dont know what I am missing. Please help.

Android Webview for videosteams?

I am using a webview to connect to an ip camera. It works when I need snapshots , but i get a white screen when I try to get videostreams. I tried .getPlugins as well. What could be the possible reason?
mWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView1);
mWebView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
mWebView.loadUrl("http://<ipaddress>/videostream.cgi?user=&pwd=");

you can call Browser activity and set specific URL by intent. Take a look here: Sending an Intent to browser to open specific URL

Open Facebook page from Android app?
I have a webview in my android app, and I would like to put a link in that opens the facebook app to my fanpage. In iOS you can say fb://... and it will open the facebook app. Is there a way to do it in android? I'm already overriding shouldOverrideUrlLoading, so I could intercept it and launch an intent if I need to.

You need to use Intents. Here's how to call the FB application (if it is installed):
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setClassName("com.facebook.katana","com.facebook.katana.ProxyAuth");
intent.putExtra("client_id", applicationId);
mAuthActivityCode = activityCode;
activity.startActivityForResult(intent, activityCode);

myWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview); // Create an instance of WebView and set it to the layout component created with id webview in main.xml
myWebView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
myWebView.loadUrl("http://m.facebook.com/pages/xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx/xxxxxxxxxx"); // Specify the URL to load when the application starts
//myWebView.loadUrl("file://sdcard/"); // Specify a local file to load when the application starts. Will only load file types WebView supports
myWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewKeep());
myWebView.setInitialScale(1); // Set the initial zoom scale
myWebView.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(true); // Initialize zoom controls for your WebView component
myWebView.getSettings().setUseWideViewPort(true); // Initializes double-tap zoom control
Check if this works for you.
