how do you close browser tabs with quick

Controls enabled?

If you're on android 3.0 then you don't get the option on the quick controls. Think you need to long press the background of the webpage to get the option on a pop up menu
On 3.1 you can close the current tab using the X icon on the quick controls

Google Labs

Has anyone been able to find google labs setting for the internet browser?

I'd like to know this too. I had a defective Asus transformer which had the setting. I liked the gesture dial because it hid the URL bar.

Default browser

Is there a way to change the default browser so the bookmark widget shows my bookmarks from Dolphin HD and not the standard browser?

U can add a bookmark to the homescreen and then open it with the dolphin browser.. if im right it will ask u with what browser it want to open it, then u choose dolphin. if it doesnt ask, u go to settings, applications, all applications, dolphin, scroll a bit down then clear default settings.
U click the bookmark again and it will ask

I don't think you can have the widget open the default browser.
They have a bookmark widget for Dolphin, but the reviews aren't that great.

Default browser gestures

Ive noticed that there has to be some kind of gestures. Because sometimes i can get the browser tab window up without clicking the icon. But i cant figure out what i pressed. Is there a list of gestures for the default browser

[Q]No fullscreen on browser?

Hey guys is it just my device or does the browser not go fullscreen? It did on my s3. And every other samsung app even music for some reason goes fullscreen. Is there a way to at least hide the nav bar?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
In the browser, go to Settings -> Accessibility then check the option for full screen :good:

I installed a Touchwiz ROM last night and just discovered that the Samsung browser doesn't do full screen. Anyone know of any custom ROMs that have a fix for this? I tried dolphin browser but the scrolling was to stuttery for me.

I would like to know what the deal is, too. The new browser seems nerfed. No real fullscreen and the option to open in background tabs is gone. The browser on my S2 was better in usage.
