I know there are many great features but I have 3 things that I hate
1) If u open the browser now, the homepage doesn't display, instead it shows the last website
2) I hate that if u download something, it doesn't take you to the downloads
3) Also now you can't double click a flash object and isolate it
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I feel your pain, the isolation was one of my favorite Parts. Any way to have like it was?
Android .apk's are supposed to all be forward compatible, you might try installing the browser apk from 2.1
I hate how I can't watch my flash tv shows on megavideo because it says its missing a plugin and an ad takes over and redirects my page so I can't even go to the site.
Thus, I am stuck on cm6. (not like that's a bad thing though)

the new browser (or is the new flash) handles taps incorrectly... on 2.1 i could tap the seek bar and fast forward as intended. on 2.2 tapping ANYWHERE on the flash object (typically a streaming video player) causes the video to play/pause, just as if i pressed right in the middle of that object... horrible
I cannot use Google Analytics with the new browsers. When I click on the calendar drop down, it just displays a blank instead of the calendar. It was working before.
You guys could install a different flash version.
Press and hold on video and let go.. On top od where the video box will be a bar with a rectangle to isolate... Tee hee I know what u mean.. I was the same way till I found out by accident.. Is there a way to download on our interent embedded movies or video on websites like a pluggin?
Edit: sometimes only works if you turn ur phone sideways.. Well foe me I have to or it wont work.. But isolates video with option to full screen..

Are we talking about the stock browser or one that can be downloaded? I am using Dolphin HD and it seems to be pretty solid.
Still waiting for firefox to release a stable browser.

2. why would you want to go to the downloads page when u can just get what you downloaded from the taskbar?
3. neither here nor there on that one.
Downgraded flash, still same issues... must be the browser that's the culprit. Anyone got apk for 2.1's browser?
Nevermind. Got the apk from 2.1 OTA. it fails to install...

Probably the security flaw fix they were talking about.
is this the one that has been on the market for the last two weeks or is it a update. I avoided the last one due to slow downs but want to see if this fixes it.
Nice catch - thanks!
does hulu work on it?
One thing that I notice was that Dolphin needed to updated. Now the flash loads on the pages automatically with out me pressing the button to load them. I know I could have set this up when installing or even the settings for Dolphin. Besides that, its running very smoothly. It seem to of fix a lag issue if anybody else has had that problem

Hulu will probably never work out of the box. It's up to hulu to support/license/whatever mobile viewing; and with hulu plus, it will probably never happen for free.

i don't really visit hulu but why doesn't it work? Just use opera mini or skyfire or something of the sort. If not change the useragent to display firefox in webkit. This way the desktop version of the site loads and it should work. But then again idk anything about hulu and why it doesnt work.
I downloaded it today. Here's the apk to push through adb.

Neither of those work. Hulu doesn't allow mobile viewing and will check thoroughly either via the browser of through the version of the flash plugin you use.
I got it! It updates the current flash but doesn't show up as an update in the market.
Hmm. I wonder if we need Player V 10.1.95.1?
Adobe says the security vulnerability-in Android-is limited to v 10.1.92.10.
My EVO currently has V 10.1.72.7 (probably since the HTC/Sprint Froyo/Android 2.2 update). Apparently 10.1.72.7 doesn't have the vulnerability.
And idk the dif between 10.1.72.7 and 10.1.92.10 (or 10.1.95.1). Hate to fix what isn't broken (especially if i can't get the old one back).

I would say to just keep the one you have already. I didn't see any additional functionality from this new update atleast from my use. The file is way too big for something we already have that only takes 52.00kb. I also notice it slows down the page load times with fresh 3.2.0.0. Uninstalled...

Explain what you did, what you downloaded...every detail please.
For some reason Skyfire is able to stream flash content on this site. Click on the video icon and wait for it to buffer. You'll see the player pop up and then the live channel streams.
Skyfire uses a server based flash implementation..it decodes flash video on a server and sends it to you in h.264.
This is not flash on the xoom.

No, it's not.
Exactly - it has nothing to do with Flash.
I am curious how long will they be able to keep it up - who is paying for all this traffic created and servers.
Skyfire is no longer providing its services in Poland - maybe they start to be the victim of their own success?

It is similar as stock android browser but i has a score of 343+10 on html5test.com also it is faster and better looking, more desktop like it has some nice feautures of auto zooming but i got some problems with pinch to zoom

Same thing here. Saw it first thing this morning. Downloaded from market. After typing in a search, never loads web content. UI is there, just no web content. (Currently running evervolv 4.0.3 ICS ROM).
Tried wiping cache and data. Didn't think to try fixing apk uid mismatches. Already uninstalled, though.

Works great on my Nexus S running ICS but cant get it in my Galaxy Tab 10.1 running 3.1, wont even try to install.
Lovely browser though, its streets ahead of the normal one.
The app requires the LEVEL 14 API.. So not sure when the great devs here can get it to work with GINGERBREAD.
I have it running on my epic 4g with cm9 but its a no go on the evo. The UI looks great, I like the functionality of the tabs. Look forward to playing with it on my transformer
Darn, and here I was thinking I could break free of miren... Anyone know if intent works properly on this one? (i.e. you open a Youtube link and it gives you the option to load it in the Youtube app)
Didn't work well for me
I tried it out on my Evo running Drew's P7 build. Uninstalled it after about 5 minutes. It takes up 50 MB of internal storage, wouldn't move to SD, the keyboard was really laggy when typing URLs, the page wouldn't display, and when I went into app management, it was using a whopping 81 MB of RAM.
Maybe I'll revisit this later, but for now it isn't right for my device.
Guys i've just upgraded to ICS and installed the Chrome browser.. really love it, but tried to go to a site to watch some anime and it says there's no pluggin.. Is there anyway around this??

I preface this with, i dont code flash, BUT how is this web developers issues when adobe is claiming flash is alive and well for desktops? These days companies cant afford to provide 2 completely different web sites for desktop and mobile and on the desktop there are just too many things that can be done with flash that cant be done in html 5 and we wont even talk about the effort to convert even if they wanted too. This is really a web fragmentation issue that needs to be adressed soon.
I'll also add that not being able to set useragent in chrome or even reliably in stock browser is driving me nuts. I hate mobile sites on my tab.

Who is up in arms? Flash is old outdated and a resource hog. I'm glad they are making themselves obsolete.. and their software is bloated garbage. And support and update ain't much of a difference. No future browsers will have flash...unless you want to use old software in the coming years...
No where did I whine about it... talk to yourself about whining....

actually dolphin browser is using the same engine as the stock browser - that's why you get flash on dolphin too since you get it on the stock browser. and if i'm not mistaken dolphin browser is an extension of the stock browser, so code wise everything it should be almost the same except the UI and other additional features that makes dolphin unique.
Chrome is a totally diff browser - so flash needs to be supported in it I suppose in order to view flash sites in chrome for android.
thank you everyone for your response.

Now with JB update, the main browser is chrome and is very slow slow slow and sometimes when I am playing html5 videos makes my system reboot, I know html5 is now and the future but a lot of web sites still use flash player. We still have the android browser but with the update now it does not synchronize anything. In my my opinion, asus tf300t is I nice device but for internet browsing is little bit frustrating. I tried dolphin that used to work fine with ICS, and now is slow.

While I'd hold off on saying it sucks outright, I will say that it leaves a whole lot to be desired. Chrome for Android is no where near as good as it's desktop big brother.
What I'm confused the most about is that they include it alongside their 4.1 updates, with it indented to become the users default browser, but it lacks some of the basic functionality of even the stock Android browser.
I am curious as to what you think is basic features? not bashing in any way...some need more than other.
i personally think Chrome is completely Fine. it does everything i need it to do and works well enough that i dont feel like i have to download or try any other browser out there.
however there is the occasion i need FLASH and have to use the stock browser.

I want it to be able to request, by default, the desktop version of websites, without me having to either specify it every time I load a new site or root and run any custom scripts.
For a device as capable as the TF300, and considering the stock browser has that function, I'd consider that a pretty basic feature. Until I see that little check box in the settings menu that allows me to "Always request desktop site", it's the stock browser for me.

Come on guys, did you not read my post?
"I want it to be able to request, by default, the desktop version of websites, without me having to either specify it every time I load a new site or root and run any custom scripts."
I do not want to unlock in order to root. Once there is a root exploit developed for 4.1.1 that maintains the locked boot-loader I'm all game to give the above options a try.
In the meantime though I'm still of the opinion that if the default browser can be programmed to request desktop versions of websites by default, there is absolutely no reason why Chrome can not be developed to do the same.
I agree it's silly that the old android browser would have features that chrome does not. Chrome can be unbearably slow on my pad. Google now as well.

Did i get what on ICS? The custom script for Chrome that is linked above? Yes I was using that while locked/rooted on ICS, but that's not the point of my complaint with Chrome.
There should be no reason that a feature like automatically requesting the desktop site in a tablet based browser should not be included, without the need to unlock/root/run custom scripts. It's just a lack of effort on the part of the Chome developers as far as I'm concerned.

Yes I am seeing that as well. I am pretty disappointed with chrome on this beast (hell it loading like aol did on my 386). I use Chrome everywhere else (galaxy nexus, razr maxx, my linux machine and my windows 7) and it blows all other browsers away - the sync is amazing when switching between devices. There has to be something coming soon that will get it back to where it belongs. Does anyone know if these chrome issues are related to JB running on tablets or is this a transformer thing. I love this tablet (bought it two nights ago lol) but without chrome working, it feels broken. Hope this gets handled soon. I am debating on trying out one or two more tablets before I fully commit (tf700t? I actually have no other ones on my radar-nothing seems exciting). Anyone know of anything i should check out before I commit?)

I posted similar information here on xda, but I had the useragent string that the tf300 defaults to on desktop mode, if you'd rather do that:

Well I finally unlocked, installed Hydro and then tried applying the custom command line linked to by SpeedNess above...no joy.
I then tried the method liked to by rumspringa9, again no joy.
Yes I changed permissions on the command line file. Might be that the new chrome version doesn't allow for the custom script to work.
Oh well, back to the stock browser and Browser2Ram for the time being.
