I saw the Flan Gallery backported to 2.0.1 from 2.1 so can it be backported to 1.6 or even 1.5.
I tried the Flan Gallery in Eugene's Eclair ROM but that was too slow to enjoy.
I saw 2.0 apps backported like the dock and car home so I'm hoping this can be backported.
If this question has been already answered please just give me the link and close this thread and do not start flaming me.
Oh yeah! Working on 1.6
I pushed it through Terminal and it works, super fast and smooth... see images

I'm not sure if that was sarcastic, but that is the wrong gallery...

Ummm the gallery_flan.apk is the 3d gallery found on the Nexus, NOT the one that you have
The Nexus One Gallery is the one you can see on http://www.google.com/phone/
This one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMwoPS8ts7Y
I would love to see this app in a future release of CM...
That sucks
I checked the system app xml and it says cooliris, so I hav ebeen duped. Thanks for letting me know.
so is there a way to backport or push it...or is it just impossible right now?
for now, it seems impossible on 1.6 but hopefully we can get a full 2.0 or higher rom for the g1 and mt3g.
With 2.1 on the g1 I tested it and it ran at like 5fps and didnt load the pictures only the menus and backgrounds no thumbnails.

I was going to comment on this, I have the droid and it seems to be a resource hog, of course thats on an unofficial 2.1 rom which isnt out for the Droid yet but just saying
would be wicked slow on the g1
Link????
Can I have a download link, I am a Sense 1.5 user
You can get it here, but it's crap and takes up 40+MB of internal storage!! And it's still beta
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/m/beta.html
it`s Fennec (aka desert fox) and yes it huge and crap
Even moved to SD card it was still about 30MB! It's also unusably slow at the moment, and it doesn't reflow the text either so I doubt it will ever be an improvement on the stock browser.

flash doesn't work on this, right?

The size is ridiculous but its definitely not slow for me. The scrolling and zooming are very smooth. The address bar is awkward, you cant type something in without it brining up the whole bookmarks/history stuff, very annoying.
I really like the sync features. Having access to all the bookmarks on my PC is really convenient.
Its lacking a lot of settings and options though.
Overall I like it, but not good enough to replace other browsers yet.
I used it awhile ago, doesn't compare to the stock browser or any of the others for that matter.
Skyfire is no doubt the best.

remember guys this is still in beta, im sure before we get an rc, mozilla will have an awsome browser
It's good that we android users have choice. But until mozilla fixes the size & optimize the browser its a no go for me.
Last time i checked, it was a resource hog, not as slow as hell but slower than the stock browser and Opera.
Uninstalled it less than 5 miniutes later.
tried it and yes the size is unbelieveable! shall be patiently waiting for them to go out of beta.

Personally, I think this is a long way from being a beta quality release. It's a late alpha/pre-beta at best. I think Mozilla have done themselves a disservice by calling it a beta.

So I was really looking forward to getting a galaxy tab, primarily for web browsing. Then I saw this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZvCXMARtl0
What is the deal with the stuttering jaggy web browsing experience? Can someone that has a tab let me know if a third party browser can make browsing a little less, bleh?
The Galaxy Tab has Flash running in on the webpage.
Look at 0:08 on the video, you can see on the iPad that there are two bars marked "FLASH" disabled. It's suppose to have the banner for "HTC" on it.
Yeah, flash is SERIOUSLY CPU heavy. In fact that's how apple justifies not using it on any of its mobile devices. On closer inspection, there's more than just two 'FLASH' bars on the iPad, I count at least 4.
If you want it to good THAT fast then turn flash off.
On the other hand, do you look at websites by pinging back and forth on them so fast you can't read the text ? Personally, I scroll slowly down, and only move quickly infrequently when I want to 'go to top' or 'go to bottom'. If you actually read websites, the video doesn't really show off a whole lot. Its not comparing like with like, and its not comparing a real life situation, so it doesn't matter.
I have the tab. Some sites with flash will run just fine.
Others will simply cause the browser to be unusable. I have no explanation to this.
I compare a site that is unusable on the tab with my Droid x and on the droidx the site runs just fine with flash enabled.
Maybe. This is a software issue which is unrelated to flash and can be fixed in a future firmware update.

Quote possibly. Samsung have been slow to release Froyo for the galaxy, so maybe the flash thing isn't just the Tab, its the architecture. Maybe they can't get the hummingbird GFX to accelerate properly.
I have a Tab since 1 week and yes...the browsing experience is really awful. it's a pain...it's slow in loading pages and VERY jaggy in scrolling.
If I think that it should be one of the best features on the Tab I'm very sad and I really hope that it will be fixed (ad least improved) soon in future releases!
By now I just can't leave my ipad for internet browsing.
It looks like both the SGS and the Tab are suffering from the same issue with the browser.
Samsung will have no choice but to fix this.
Dolphin and Opera
Yes browsing with stock browser is really slow and jaggy. I've installed Opera mini and Dolphin. I use Opera for casual browsing (ie xda) and it's really smooth. When I need flash, or for "difficult sites" or if I have to download with rapidhare etc I use Dolphin (which is almost smooth).
Thank you all for your honest opinions.

Dolphin uses the same core lib as the stock browser so it should run the same as stock in terms of speed.

Didnt know. In practice it's really smoother though!
The webkit browser has a really annoying renderer in general. I dont understand why it needs to lower picture quality whenever you move the image around.
Just look at the way opera mini does it - much faster and better looking! Sadly its buggy and lacking in features, which is why im still using webkit.
Dolphin HD is slightly better (if only because it semi-blocks flash content by default), but it has some annoying ui elements like the giant tab bar, which can be removed but at the cost of being able to click on objects along the top edge of the display.
Ive also tried the ARM7 version of the mozilla fennec nighly builds. It just force closed on me, not even a little looksee
For me Dolphin HD is much smoother beside the fact it doesn't show flash banners where stock one does.
Both of them have been a disappointment WRT flash support.
It isn't that great for sites i visit.
If I open a new tap, I need to zoom in and out to get a picture
is this normal?
No, mine loads fine immediatley.

Downloading now! Thanks for the link!
Doesn't support flash.
Edit: Used it for about 10 minutes before uninstalled. It's clearly pre-alpha build stuff, buggy and slow with no features.
Very slow.
At first I was impressed with how smoothly it handled scrolling while the web page was still loading(according to the progress bar). But then I realized that was because it didn't seem to be loading the entire page, just what I was currently looking at and a few lines down. So if you quickly swiped up or down, you'd just hit blank white and then the Browser would scramble to catch up. if you swiped back down to where you were, it would be white as well.
Uninstalled and I'm sticking with Dolphin Browser Mini for the time being.
Yea this is getting very buggy.
They update it nightly so let's hope it gets better since Google for some reason doesn't wanna implement it into the stock browser smh :/
It'll probably be in the version that hits the Market later this month. Fingers crossed.
Someone should port the XXJPU browser that Samsung modified. That browser was very fast

I love the idea and speed of Dolphin Browser Mini but I just hate how they took away system controls (such as the checkbox of "Enable Location")
Sticking with regular (non HD) Dolphin I guess...

I've found that Dolphin Mini actually imports alot of settings from the default Browser, such as Flash Player being Ondemand or not. I think Location Services is completely disabled in it, though.
Man that Samsung GPU Acceleration browser is SEXY!!!

Yes, there have been lots of threads already. Here's the .apk. It's pretty unstable though. Not for "daily" usage yet.

But the screen shot looks great... specifically the tab management
The people with galaxy Nexus can run the chrome web broswer with nearly any problem.
But I am running with Andy ICS room and chrome is very weird.
A lot of little jumps or shakings when sliding or zooming the webs. and sometimes it freezes or closes when displaying the multiple tabs.
Any way my room is beta, and also the Chrome web browser, but sure it will be my default web browser soon... it could be amazing...
ive been hearing this is running nice on custom ics roms

Yes, it looks nice, and it's fast also. Go ahead and install it, no harm in trying. It just freezes too often to use it on a regular basis.
On the SGS2 I had freezes only when 'force gpu acceleration' was enabled....
tried it both with this rom (bezke LPB http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1393569) and this rom (wanam LPB http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436817) and it's exactly what i wished for in a mobile browser! it's just a pity that it crashes very often on both roms. i'm sure they'll figure it out until it's out of beta i'm anticipating a release
