Open browser at specified URL using ACTION_VIEW does not work when chrome is the default browser

I have 2 browsers installed on your Android device 1) by default and 2) Chrome

When I run the following code, I get a "Full action using" selector ...

String url = "http://www.google.com/search?q=" + query; 
Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
i.setData(Uri.parse(url));
startActivity(i);

The Android browser works by default, since the browser opens at the specified URL. However, when I open the Chrome browser, Chrome just opens ... it seems to ignore the specified URL.

Is this a problem with Chrome or my code?

Greetings

The problem was my query variable. It looks like Chrome did not accept the query string format in which the default Android browser was installed.

, URL- ...

query = URLEncoder.encode(query, "UTF-8");
