Just one series of crashes and lack of function after another. That's Dolphin HD, Dolphin Mini, Opera won't even load, Skyfire, Boat, Miren. Dolphin Mini comes closest to being stable and allowing me to login to necessary sites (Pubget.com), but I can't see any way of getting pdf docs into a reader. Downloaded Dolphin pdf reader, which only seems to work with Dolphin HD, and the supposed online Google reader solution in Dolphin Mini doesn't work. Pdf is just displayed as though it was a plain text file.
Anyone futzed with these things on the Nook Touch? Has anyone gotten Opera to load? Is there another I haven't tried? Reading pdfs linked to web sites is key for me.
Opera mini worked fine. I am able to download files (any kind, including pdf), but I open the pdf with ezpdf or docstogo pdf reader.
Can you tell me the version of Opera Mini? Maybe an old one? Thanks.
The latest. I always update through market. But I had problem on my own, when looking for the best browser. Opera mini worked the best.

i searched the web but i could not find a way to make thetouch hd opera to work...i can not view camgirlslive and youtube and all the other websites like that....the only way is to use skyfire browser....does anyone know anyway to use opera or mini to work properly...
The opera browser is working it is just that that there is not a windows mobile flash plug-in capable of viewing that content at the moment.
However, adobe has said they will be bringing a full flash capable soon to the platform (click here).
Skyfire at the moment is the only one that will have reasonable flash support. For java based website's try Opera Mini at mini.opera.com.

Have a look here!!

works on my phone with youtube site.
Hi,
A problem I recently have been experiencing with facebook is when I log on now for the full site, it does not show me who is online nor does it show the 'chat' button??? Any ideas as to why this is happening on my Galaxy Tab?
-Thanks
Did I make my question clear? Is there anything that I could clarify?
I'm using Dolphin HD logging in full site and it works fine.
Have you tried the facebook app? It is free and works fine for me.
Which browser are your using? Try Xscope.
Where can I download Dolphin HD or Xscope? What are they? Are they a browser app or something else?
Yes, both are web browsers that can be found in the android market.
Dolphin Browser HD or Dolphin Browser for Pad? Also, are they free downloads?
Pad or Tab? Ipad no, tab yes. They have free & paid vesions.
On the Dolphin Browser HD site, I only see Dolphin HD Browser for Pad. Which part of the site can I download Dolphin HD for Tab?
-Thanks
I honestly cannot see Dolphin Browser HD for Tab? Or am I just confused? Will this solve my issue?
My default browser always fails tobdownload correctly whereas with firefox no problems
Any ideas?
No, but you can try other webkit-based browsers like Dolphin and Dolphin HD. Or Opera Mobile.
I haven't found an apk for flash that works yet. Has anyone else or for dolphin version 8.x or higher or the AOSP browser?

Nope. With the latest flash version (11.1.115.81), in desktop mode, the stock browser doesn't play videos at all for me either. In mobile browser mode, youtube videos will play, but not directly in the browser. An external player takes over ( with no option to choose).
Same scenario, but with Dolphin Mini, videos play directly in the browser each time.
Using Hulu, the stock browser and Dolphin Mini both play video clips within the browser window while in mobile mode. It seems to be a made for mobile browsing kind of video player. As soon as switch to desktop mode, both fail to play any videos. The stock browser complains that Adobe flash player isn't installed, while Dolphin Mini receives a system not supported message.
As far as flash content goes (games, ads, banners, etc), the stock browser isn't having any of it (mobile or desktop). It just won't display it.
Dolphin Mini handles banners and advertisements pretty well in both modes. I was also able to get this game to load beyond the play button screen quite a few times, but it crashed right after tapping start on every attempt.
I don't really know what the best methods are to test flash, but from what I'm seeing, we may be SOL for the time being.
Have you guys checked out the latest version of Maxthon browser?
I HATED this browser when i tried it years ago, but they totally re-wrote it and its pretty amazing!
plays flash beautifully as well,
Hi all
Is there any lean back web browser available for the Nexus Player currently? I tried Chrome Beta, but that didnt do tha trick
Also does anyone know how to uninstall an app from the Nexus Player that you installed from your PC browser?
Thanks in advance!

Tried firefox, dolphin, and chrome. Chrome was the only one where I could do searches but it has tons of functionality ripped out ie no tabs and I still haven't figured out how to go back.
Uninstalling is the same as any android device. Go into settings > apps > find chrome > uninstall.
I found a 11.3.0 version of the Dolphin browser with Leanback support here: https://plus.google.com/communities/103510820500984874818/s/dolphin?partnerid=gplp0 Namely, the file named mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser-2.apk in one of the posts. The file installs fine in my rooted Nexus Player and an icon for the Dolphin browsers shows up on the Leanback launcher see pict. The program starts, but the browser is only able to load a couple sites, namely cnn.com and just a couple others see pict. When I try to go to other sites like google.com or facebook.com all I get is a blank page see pict. After entering the URL the Dolphin progress bar moves quickly to the right, but then slows down to a crawl and slowly continues to the right, but never loads the site. The Internet connection is fine, I can load all sites using Chrome browser without a problem, but I'm use to working with Dolphin on Android. Chrome on the Nexus Player does not allow tabs, but Dolphin does. Anyone else testing this Dolphin Leanback browser on their Nexus Player with different results?... I understand that this version appears to be modified specifically for the ADT-1, but given that it loads cnn.com, I can't understand why it won't load other sites.
Has anyone found a newer version of Dolphin with Leanback support?
Btw, to work with this browser you'll need a mouse and keyboard. I'm using a K400r keyboard with a trackpad. The Nexus Player remote does not work. If after the installation you get stuck on ads screens the first time you run it (flipping to a black screen)... click and hold the mouse button and swipe to the left to navigate to the Welcome (Start) screen.
FYI - The problem I was having with Dolphin 1.3.0 with Leanback on my Nexus Player was being caused by the Dolphin Jetpack. I disabled the Jetpack and the problem loading pages went away. I guess I lost the functions provided by the Jetpack (e.g. flash support), but at least I can load pages now.
I hope Google or some third party is working on a web browser that can be used with just the NP remote, Having to "always" go for the keyboard to navigate the web is not convenient. For the small amount of web browsing that I do using the TV bookmarks, up/down - left/right navigation plus access the on-screen keyboard to enter URLs and to fill a couple forms should be enough.
I also have a Logitech Revue (GTV) that came with a neutered version of Chrome. I believe copyright laws were the main reasons why Google did not developed the GTV Chrome browser further. With a couple of hacks it's barely able to play flash videos. Streaming content directly to the big screen has always been something that content owners are reluctant to allow without a fee.
