Why do some webpages not finish loading images when using cellular data instead of WiFi?

IIt seems to have solved the issue. At least with testing one of the sites I go to that had issues.

WIth that said, at least with my iphone5s with 2gb free memory, the phone tends to freeze/run slower quite a bit more than when I had 8.1 on it. Incidentally os7 froze but not to extent os8 has.

FOr instance, if open maps or google maps, it locks up for a few seconds before loading. If I move map, the screen freezes and after 10seconds or so comes back to life. Or if maps open and I go to send email, keystrokes freeze. I have to wait for come back alive. Point is not maps issue but seems phones processing power was killed some. So whatever they did to help iphone 4's seem to have created issues with 5.

SO pick your poison. Freezing or web images.

I can also confirm that the image corruption issue appears to be resolved on iOS 8.1.1 using an iPhone 6 plus on ATT LTE.

Also confirmed that with Verizon iOS 8.1.1, safari stops loading sites with many pictures and shows them as half loaded with a black bar on the bottom half. Images appear to be cached that way after load. Trying the same site on another phone produces the same effect, but on different pictures. And on refresh, the same pictures are cached and look half-loaded.

Clearing cache/cookies fixed that particular site on one phone, but not another.

Both are iPhone 5s.

Still seeing instances of this on mobile Safari on the iPhone 6 with iOS 8.3.

The mobile Chrome browser on iOS 8.3 works fine.

So it seems to be Safari-specific.

I can 100% confirm that the issue still exists as of May 13, 2015
