chromedriver cannot automate built-in "Internet" app on Samsung Galaxy S5 #1063

I am trying to automate the built-in browser app on an S5. I've tried caps that 
include an androidPackage and androidActivity of "com.sec.android.app.sbrowser" 
and "com.sec.android.app.sbrowser.SBrowserMainActivity". Chromedriver 
successfully starts the app but eventually freezes on a blank screen and never 
responds to the new session request.

Is chromedriver supposed to work on the Samsung browser?

We regularly test ChromeDriver against recent releases of Chrome as well as 
Android WebView, but we don't officially support browsers made by other vendors 
including Samsung.

But if Samsung's browser uses Android's WebView to render pages, then it should 
work. What version of Android is your S5 running?

Interesting. The device is on 4.4.2. I assume Samsung uses the Android WebView, 
however when I connect to it in chrome://inspect/#devices, I don't see anything 
other than the device name. Maybe this indicates that it doesn't?
