Removing stock android browser? - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Is it possible to remove the stock android browser without any problems? I want to use xScope as my only browser and some apps always use the stock browser without asking me which I want to use, and I want that to stop.

Settings-all apps-browser-remove standart settings. (or similar)
Now you will get asked which browser to choose for the app thats calling the browser

normally it gives the option of which browser to start if you have more than 1 installed, you can put the tick in remeber selection and set the browser and from then on it will open in your choice, are you saying this doesnt work for ?

Adobe flash player issue

I'm 2.2.1 rom on my Fascinate. I downloaded flash player 10.1 from the Market, but any time I want to view something that requires flash player, it says that I need to download flash player, and directs me to app via market, which shows ive downloaded it. Sigh. Any suggestions?

Make sure you enable plugins in the Browser's settings (either to Auto, or On-Demand).
Thanks. Its the simplest things that get the best of me sometimes

native browser doesn't work in the background!!

If I open any web address in the native browser of the phone and then switch to any other app, so that after some time, the webpage opens. When I switch back to native browser after sometime, I noticed that the web page was not opening and starts opening as soon as I switched back to native browser. Can anyone please let me know the resolution to this?

It's because of android's memory management. To run the app your closing, ram is needed. So they close background apps. Thus, on our this low ram phone, multitasking is harder. Try v6 supercharger, may help

You can lock the browser in the phone memory if you want using v6 supercharger ,kyoraapp., which makes the browser to remain in memory from boot up to shut down
If you are desperate to have browser running in background then lock it in memory but you might occasionally feel your phone is sluggish if you open lots of websites and leave it in background

AdBlock and open Wi-Fi agreement?

I notice that when I try to connect to a commercial open wifi like at an airport or McDonald's, I will see my browser open for like a split second then close. I'm pretty sure this is the page that asks me to agree with wifi regulations. This often results in me not being able to use the wife even though it's connected. Is this an adblock issue? Is there a fix other than turning adblock off entirely?

have you tried a different browser like chrome or dolphin. I usually have this when I stay at a hotel, I open the browser in a new tab to agree with T&C and then just leave that tab alone, open a new one and browse from there.
That's the problem. I can't get to the T&C screen. I see the open wifi (for example at Target) Then just after it connects, the browser will flash open for a split second then close. Then when I try to open a new tab or browser window, it won't open to a T&C page, and thus I cannot use the wifi even though I'm connected. I'm assuming this has something to do with adblock, but I can't find the option to shut it off (assuming it's a problem with adblock). Any suggestions?

What adblocking software are you using? (i.e. browser extension or an app that modifies the hosts file, like AdFree)
I usually get a "sign in to wifi network" notification that I can tap to open the new tab with the T&C page.
I have sacs rom and I see "adaway" in the "manage apps" screen, but I don't see a shortcut to it in the apps drawer or in any of the settings. So I don't know how to adjust it.
I don't get a click to sign in notification, maybe that is turned off some how.

If you installed comadose that is likely what is doing it, it has a built in ad blocker
