View 7 Replies View RelatedI've seen plenty of discussion here about different browser apps, but I have yet to see one listing the pros and cons of the different most popular browsers available for android. The main browsers I've been able to identify are the following: If there are any others worth mentioning, please add them to the list. I would love to hear your input regarding the pros and cons of each one.

I have a Galaxy SII running ICS but I wanted to test my mobile websites using Froyo or Gingerbread browsers.
i cant wait to get my Xperia upgraded to 2.1! i have one issue though. i only have access to a work PC with XP but no admin account (big corp, so no chance of getting it temporarily) or my housemates Mac. my girlfriend has a laptop but she wont be home until next weekend are there any non-windows/non-admin methods of upgrading?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have had DC 2.08.1 installed for about 2 weeks with no issues. I decided to go ahead and partition the SD to utilized apps2SD as I was having memory issues. That process, while not smooth, went through okay and the SD card is working with the partition and apps2SD. However, ever since that was completed, my Windows 7 box no longer recognizes the phone either as a phone or as a drive. My Linux laptop recognizes the drive without issue.
Any suggestions on how I can reintroduce my phone to the Windows box, at least as a drive?
Ok so i have been searching the forums for an answer to my questions but cannot seem to find anything definitive. Does hdmi out/tv out work with any of the Internet browsers? Do any of the emulators support hdmi out/tv out? Is there any android device the supports tv out for its home screen and all apps? If not when will we get any of this?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to see if there is more than the normal popular web browsers out there that support user agent switching. I am looking for those that support either custom or iOS settings.
Before I get attacked for wanting to emulate a iOS product I will explain.
The company I work for uses a 3rd party vendor for eBooks for our students we work with. They use a proprietary software that only worked on Mac or PC's to download the book as well as a online website.
Yesterday the vendor launched an app for the iOS that allows the users to download the books to their devices. They also altered the online version of the site to work perfectly with iOS devices.
They refuse to take into consideration Android devices and the website will not display the eBooks properly on any android device.
However, when playing around with Dolphin and xScope the User Agent settings have iPhone/iPad in them. After enabling them, the site thinks its a iOS device and the content works beautifully with it.
What I am trying to do is catalog the other browsers out there that support user agent switching to try to catalog the ones we can suggest to students to use.
I've been following a discussion on the apparent lack of JavaScript and Java on Android browsers. One of my hot button applications requires either JavaScript or at least the ability to run a .jar file in order to save data. No one in the other discussion has been able to find a Android browser capable of supporting this application (TiddlyWiki)..

View 2 Replies View RelatedFor a site I'm working on I'm implementing image preloading with javascript however i most certainly do not want to call my preload_images() function if someone is on slow bandwidth.
For my market the only people with slow bandwidth are those using mobile Internet on a smartphone.
What's the best approach for detecting these users so i can avoid image preloading for them?
option 1 : detect browser width
if($(window).width() > 960){ preload... }
option 2: detect user-agent with a list of browser to preload for
if($.browser in array safelist){ preload... }
are there any better options?
Any web browser where the resize/crop profile photo window in Desktop (full) version of facebook actually works? Seriously, I can not change my friggin fb profile pic because when it asks to drag the edges of the box to crop the photo, it wont do anything. When I touch it and try to drag, it just moves the entire screen around. It wont actually select it...kind of like you do when you click inside a Flash window. I have tried stock browser, Boat, Dolphin HD and Opera. None of them will move or resize the drag box. Im stuck without PC access and have been wanting to change my photo for months but have not been able to. I dont understand this. When I had my Touch Pro 2 with Windows Mobile and used Opera Mobile, I had absolutely no problem dragging that box around.

By the way, I'd like to add I am brand new here, I am brand new to Android, and I am brand new to Smart phones. I just upgraded from a crappy 2 year old samsung slider to the HTC Hero on Wednesday, and I am loving it so far!

View 2 Replies View RelatedOver the weekend I had a party to go to. The address was in my events on FB but I could not access my events from the FB app and I could log into FB from the browser. Every time I try to connect into FB through either the stock browser or Skyfire I get a "Cookies Required" error msg and it won't let me log in. Cookies are enabled on both browsers but I still can't get in. What gives?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using CyanogenMod 5.0.6 on my Nexus One. Until recently everything was fine but now, none of the browsers on my device are working on either Wifi or EDGE. I tried default browser, Dolphin, Skyfire and even Firefox nightly build. All of them are not opening any pages. Strange thing is, all other internet related applications work i.e. Market, K9, News & Weather etc. It is not a DNS problem as I can ping sites in terminal and get a response. I tried clearing the cache/data. Also tried CacheCleaner. None of the things I tried seem to work.

Whenever I go on certain websites like Facebook, it will ask me which browser to use. So I select one, then the box comes up every couple seconds asking me to choose which browser to choose after I already selected one of them! This is so frustrating some times! I don't want to make skyfire my default since its still in Beta stages.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have noticed that there are a lot of different big name browsers on Android yet coincidentally not a single one of them has been updated with a simple new API which allows for immersive mode full screen.
How and why has Chrome out of all the browsers not been updated with this?
We have a website that makes use of OAM for single sign on (form-based authentication). When we submit credentials to WebGate / Access Server the authorization succeeds, however after the authentication is performed, the form action (as configured in the Authentication Scheme - with passthrough:no) returns a server error instead of redirecting to the originally requested URL.
If we use Mini Opera, we are able to get authenticated and forwarded properly.
This problem happens on numerous Android phones (versions ranging from 1.5-2.2), as well as the Emulator provided with the SDK.
This is proving to be a real problem as the default browser on Android phones is not able to get access to our sites(and this is the only browser that is having this problem).
I have created a WebView-based custom browser with the hope of seeing a client-side error and tried trapping every possible error....none show up....
I have tried to trace all of the http requests and found only a single difference in the requests... the http header for Connection:keep- alive is not sent by the Android WebView.
I have provided some tracing info below...
CODE:....................
Phone prompted me to do an update so I did, now skyfire won't even open and the default browser that came on the phone will at least open, but force closes after like a minute. Can I roll back to my previous firmware? I started to browse all these rooting and flashing forums and sticky's and it all sounds like rocket science to me.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI got the OTA 2.2 update pushed to my first generation Verizon Droid this morning. Nice new homescreens, love the apps menu, USB tethering option even showed up in my settings menu as selectable. BUT, nether my Dolphin Browser HD or the stock browser can connect to the Internet via 3g anymore (they work on WiFi though). It worked fine before the update. After TWO hours on the phone with Verizon (one Customer Service guy and two Tech support guys, one of those a "Droid support" person), their solution: Factory Reset to 2.1 and don't update it if it asks again. All other 3g Internet based services work fine: SMS, Facebook, Marketplace, News apps, etc. I mean COME ON Verizon! "The glitch is with Froyo and our mobile network but there's really nothing we can do". "The update is pushed by Motorola" "There is a second OTA update supposed to be coming in early September" Folks, is this 2.2 update really this faulty? Or is this maybe just my particular phone? I was also having an issue with my GPS no longer working for several weeks before the update. They couldn't figure anything out for that so they agreed to send me a new phone, which they said will have 2.1 on it. Since I'm traveling next week, I am reluctant to accept another OTA update. Any opinions about whether I should?.......

I turned it on, connected it to my home Wifi, used the correct password, and it says it is connected, and has been assigned an IP addressed. However, it isn't connecting to any websites or anything else in any of the browsers.
I have tried both the native and dolphin.
