View 2 Replies View RelatedI have just created and iPhone web app, which has some x264 (mp4) video files on it. When I link directly to the file on the iPhone and the user taps the link, the video player is loaded and the video starts playing. Using the app on an Android phone causes the browser to download the video instead of just playing it. Is there a way to force a video player to just boot up and play the video not download it?

Here is my (non-working) code...

View 2 Replies View RelatedLet's say I have an app that has a "search on Google" button. Every time the user choose it, I want to bring up the browser and run a Google search. Currently, I use: startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(url)); However, each time, it launches a new Window inside the browser. After a few times, the browser complains that it cannot open new Window anymore. Is there a way to tell the browser to re-use the last Window I created? Something like what you would do with <href=xxx target=_mywindow> in HTML?

Android platform on the other hand is only pop up a notification that is required to tap in order to open the html file (launching an installed browser).Is it possible to force the device to automatic launch browser without poping the notification?

View 1 Replies View RelatedNotice this on the stock browser when it first launches? This takes up at least 5 seconds or more when you're just trying to open up the browser to go to a site. Seems unnecessary. Would be better if it just pulled up the browser. Is there a setting to change this? I like the stock browser, otherwise and I'm not interested in Dolphin. I hear it has advertisements on it?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to specifically run the default Android browser for a given URL. I'm using this code: I also tried adding <uses-library android:name="com.google.android.browser" /> to the manifest. Am I missing something here? PS: I'm not interested in using startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("http://www.google.com"))) as it will list all the choices for the browsing Intent.
View 3 Replies View RelatedMy stock browser used to crash immediately upon launch, no matter where it was being launched from. So I always have to start the browser twice.
But I recently rooted and went with xtrSense. At first it all seemed smoother, but after a few days, it's back to crashing on launch again. Once I re-launch, it seems to work fine, but this is still a hassle.
Thought rooting would b my magic "fix-all".
