Running Froyo? Want the push to phone that was shown at Google I/O?
Well this isn't Googles, but this looks pretty close.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/161941/
Install that in your Firefox.
http://outgoing.mozilla.org/v1/1a19...ooglecode.com/files/chrometophone-android.apk
Install that on your Froyo. (You'll have to allow 3rd party apps in your settings)
Open it and REGISTER by logging in.
Now back in your Firefox window, you should see a Black phone with a green arrow on it up near your address bar. Click it. Now watch your phone.
Enjoy
It's called chrome to phone and we have known about it since the day froyo was unofficially released
Sorry, this was the first I saw any mention of a Firefox addon for it. So far everything I had seen was for Chrome.
Anyway, I love it!
welcome to 4 weeks ago.

About the time I unrooted my g1 to give to my wife in order to get a mytouch, there was some chatter in the g1 forum about a google chrome browser i believe?
Anyway that was the last time i was on the g1 boarbs for some time and I dont recall where the discussions were but i love chrome on my laptop and desktop, is it possible to get it on the mytouch? Mind you i havent rooted and would really rather not...thanks
Erm .. don't think that Google Chrome for Android exists or ever will? The built in Android browser is made by Google and based on webkit, just like Chrome. It is essentially already a cut down Chrome for mobile.
Ok, first off I like most of the new tw features and haven't had any major problems. I have 2 minor annoyances tho. First, the stock browser keeps loading mobile websites even tho I did the about: debug thing I tried clearing the data and factory reset. This will help for a little while but next time I open the browser it is loading mobile sites again. Dolphin and opera work fine.
Second problem is with market app. When I first open the app next to all the categories should be a ">" icon you can click to go into that category. Like Free Apps >, Paid Apps > etc. but mine doesn't have the > next to every category. Only certain ones. I cannot click on the categories without the >. Its the same with movies and books. Once again tried erasing app data and cleared my account and reentered it to no avail. Not sure if my settings are screwy or if it's re doing this.
for the first one just use the modded framework so it sticks to User Agent of a desktop. second one not sure :<
The second problem doesn't have anything to do with Touchwiz. I have the same problem with Xoom (Android 3.2). Google updated the European Market to have Featured Tablet Apps and this messed things up.
after doing the update haptic feedback does not work in stock android keyboard and I have issues with wallpapers some times only half of it shows
Number 2 seems to be a market issue, It's doing it pour moi aussi.
I think that's googles fault & the reason is becos some apps are not available in your area or are not optimized for tablet but you can sideload them.

When I try to upload pictures on my FB via the application, it reaches 100% and then I get an error that the transfer failed. If I do it on the browser it works.
What seems to be the problem? I am on HC 3.2 and my Xoom is unrooted.
Works fine here. Try signing out, clearing data, signing in, and trying again.
No, it didn't work.
I can't see my albums either.

TBH, that app is flaky as h*ll, adn gives nothing but problems. I use the mobile browser for most facebooking. It's far superior. However, that doesn't answer your question...
I seem to remember the latest version of that app fixing that issue. Are you on the latest by chance?
Yes I am. I even removed and installed the app again.
No answer here?
The best thing to do for your Facebook needs is to download a third party app or possibly search Google for the .apk of an older version and sideload it. A lot of people have been complaining about the latest update in the comments on the Market page for the Facebook app.

I do wish they'd release a proper tablet version of their app already. The current app looks alright even if it's stretched but a dedicated tablet version would do way more justice. Then again, the Facebook people dragged their feet developing an Android app before they finally released their own so them dragging their feet here doesn't surprise me.
They drag their feet with the Facebook Android app while constantly screwing around with the layout of the site confusing users who are already still coming to grips with the last layout change. That and just their way of doing things in general would have had me delete my account long ago if it weren't for that site being my only means of contacting certain people.

Hi guys I just installed ICS Slim and boy am I glad I did. Smooth and Slick. One quick question, I did install Chrome Beta but do I have to separately install Chrome 2 Phone from the Market for it to work? I thought it might be built in. Thanks!

Chrome BETA browser already had the "chrome 2 phone" feature built in, you have to login from your browser on your PC, and login on the android browser, and they should be connected, it does sometimes take a little bit of time for them to sync.
Yeah, I did log in to both. I can even view the tabs on my Comp on my Phone but C2P is not working yet. I will give it some time first. Thanks!
After waiting a while, it still refuses to work. So I just went ahead and downloaded Chrome to Phone from Market. Now it works fine. I think this has to be installed.
Edit: it's not working again. Either the program is buggy or the rom is buggy, im using slim. I am trying to get this to work, will post solution if i find it.
I got it...
I needed to remove Chrome to Phone from my Chrome PC Browser and install Chrome to Mobile.
You guys need Chrome to Mobile.
Fixed.
Im at my wits end with this issue...
I'm getting a bit desperate here, and i cant find a solution anywhere else... i asked before, and it seemed the other people having this issue were using nova or at least some sort of non oem launcher, but some people with nova never saw the problem..
whenever i click on anything in an app... aka, a link in gmail to an ebay item...
what happens, is it opens chrome and displays the last thing i visited on chrome. sometimes if i hit back, it will go back to the ebay app it was supposed to open in and display what i was looking for. other times if i hit back, it goes back a page in chrome till i get to the home page, and then if i hit back again it finally closes chrome and it takes me to the ebay app and the results i want.
the same thing happens if i click on a link from search in the google app... if it is a link handled by an app, it will open with that app. if it is a misc link, it will open chrome showing the last thing i viewed in chrome, then i click back once or a few times(or switch back to the google app via recent apps), and boom... the link is open in the google app.
another example.. open a link in metal(my reddit app, but it also does it with bacon reader)... it opens chrome showing the last thing i viewed in chrome. if i back out of chrome, or go into recent apps and switch back to the reddit app.
it is absurdly annoying. this happened with my old lgv20, and it happens with my new one that i got as a warranty replacement. Idk what app or setting followed me over to the new phone and i have no idea how to fix it. anyone else have this problem?
the only time i can get the issue to go away is... if i clear google chrome defaults in the app manager.. and i have a 2nd browser installed, like firefox... and every time it asks to open a random link in chrome or firefox, if i select just once... the issue stays away. if i either uninstall firefox, or click chrome and set it as the default, the issue comes back.
thanks. Im honestly getting desperate as it is making phone use very very cumbersome, especially for switching back and forth between apps.
occasionally making sure chrome isnt in my recent apps will help, but not always.
anyone else here with experiencing the same?
