User Agent on Navigate ICS Rom - Eee Pad Transformer General

Hi,
I've flash ICS WW on Revolver Rom
Work perfect, but User Agent switcher missing on Navigator and I need it for use iphone on modem mode
But, I find a solution, if you need same :
Go to navigate
on URL, 'wrote " about:debug "
Go to Option, Debug, UIString, and change your mode
Sorry for my english !

Definitely one of the better features in ICS, no longer have to do the about:debug fix.

You can also use ICS Browser+ from the Market. Gives you the option in settings, and a few other useful things missing from the stock browser.

But it goes off every time you close Navigayor. At least on mine So you have to switch it back on every tjme you open it.

I hope asus will solve this issue soon, it looks we 've been forced in a one way like the apple way.

UA String Fix for WiFi Xoom

For those of you following along with the thread in the development forum, I'm not allowed to post in there yet but I've come across something of interest.
I took the resources.arsc file out of the framework-res-uastring.apk posted there and put it in the framework-res.apk that I pulled from my WiFi Xoom, and wouldn't you know, it worked!
I'm testing for stability now, but I can say that it's working for me so far. I've attached my modified framework-res.apk in case anyone wants to test along with me without going through the trouble of mashing files.
Nice, I was wondering if that would work. Just a word of caution though, since this resources.arsc comes from the US 3g Xoom it only has US-English and Spanish support.
Can someone test this and verify it works?

Works. Don't forget to reboot after applyng. I will post back if I notice any side effects but so far no problems.

Is this for the wifi version, would it work on 3g? And do I need root?
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
I tried it and caused multiple FC's on me as soon as it rebooted.
I however did the samething you did and pulled my framework-res.apk, added the resources.asrc file to it and then pushed it and all was good. Thanks for the idea!
Thanks for that Codespeare. I have posted a version for the Canadian WIFI Xoom ONLY under the Dev section OT.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13207039&postcount=125
pulled my framework-res.apk & added the resources.asrc file. works great. thanks Codespear!!!
I did it too, worked. EXCELLENT!
Will try now, thank you so much, I love you really I do.
EDIT: works... but at what cost? I have noticed the keyboard has been acting up, sort of how like the Gingerbread keyboard screws up from time to time, I don't think it's it me, but sometimes when I type something like backck it does that! Back back back backck, I have never noticed this before hand.... I am typing this out on my Xoom right now just to let you know. I hope this wasn't the fix. Still the keyboard works okay but that annoying bug that Gingerbread gets is present... pretty weird. Hope for a fix if this is really the UA string fix. Thanks anyways, it works great!

You can now load up a website in full desktop mode by default. If you don't have this all websites will load into their mobile versions, because it detects it is Android and makes it suitable for the screen. Since Android works on tablet PCs now, this should be an interchangable option, however I don't think Google thought of this when they were making the browser.

Because it changes back by default on the Android web browser. Also this is for the wifi only Xoom, there is another version specifically for the 3g Xoom.

My tablet wont download ANYTHING through ANY browser

Despite what the subject says, I must say I AM able to download a file from any link you could think of. Except when I do, the download will start regularly and almost immediately say finished with the file being only a few kilobytes. This goes for every file type. When browsing the market and downloading apps though, no problem at all. Any ideas?

[Q] Right click on ICS bug?

I just upgraded my firmware to 4.0.3 and I'm having a little bit of trouble. I use Splashtop HD and it says that it has enabled right and middle click for ICS, but when I try to right click, it just asks if I want to disconnect the session. Is there a way to set right click on an external mouse to open the context menu? I'm using a Logitech MK500 keyboard/mouse combo if that helps any.
Thanks, TechPlease
Sent from my A500 using XDA Premium HD app
This is not a bug it it work as design. I would like also to have the old behavior back.
I've seen that on Asus there is an extra menu developed by them to chose the behavior of the right click is it possible to make an app or something to do the same.
Thank you
@Thade "Old behavior"? Do you mean where a long left click will bring up the right click menu? If not, sorry for the misunderstanding on my part. I hope they put that back in for now, as, when I use my mouse I can't right click at all.

Dolphin HD for me.
Chrome
How are you setting the proxy up in chrome or dolphin ?
I've looked through all the popular browsers and don't see the option. Not finding add-ons that will do it either, I must be going blind.

Check transparent proxying in orbot,
Select which apps run through it, and it should just work.
The check button on top of orbot, will check to see if you are
Running through Tor.
Ahhh, thanks for the info.
I'm not rooted, so I can't use the transparent proxy option.
Firefox mobile has a proxy add-on that would do the job, but it only works with old versions that I don't want to use.
I guess I'll have to decide how bad I want Orbot to work...

You should at least root.. you can still have the stock ROM , but a lot more options available.

(using Dolphin HD)
How do you set this app up? I'm using vpn.. should I not use vpn and this instead?
My $25 credit is greyed out.. can't use it..
I setup already using Firefox, but still unable to use back the $25 credit. Still greyed out.. do we still need to use VPN when using this application?

The search for a decent browser....

I really like Dolphin and UC browser but both of them leave stuff running even after you've closed the app. If you look in settings, apps, running apps, you'll find that there are services and processes that are still running long after you've finished using the app. UC browser actually runs even after you've chosen 'quit' from the menu!
Boat browser is far better behaved and so is Chrome but Chrome has no full screen mode and Boat a little clunky to use.
Am I right in thinking that these running processes are using my battery?
I've emailed support for both UC and Dolphin about this and while they're quick to reply about other issues, they are both strangely silent about these running processes..
Can anyone suggest a browser that runs full screen and doesn't pound the battery?

AOSP browser?
Try Naked Browser. It doesnt leave anything running and is very lightweight, with flash support and all. Try the free version first from the description of the play store app.

You are using nexus 10 ,right?
So i guess your device have tue stock android browser installed, that wont ruj in yhe background, and therefore no battery impacts(i think).
In the menu, you can choose full screen to maximize the space
Hope it helps you

Hmm...
That's strange. For some reason it says "your device is not compatible with this version" when I try and install it!
Is it not supposed to work with the N10?
Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk HD
Maybe you can try “lightning browser”, its fast. However, in my own experience, i dont like the little options for me to choose and the full screen mode of it, coz in full screen mode I must scroll to the top and overscroll to bring-out the tabs which is not so convience in my view, but i think you might give a try.
P.S. The free version of this browser supports only 5 tabs and 5 bookmarks, plus version dont have the restriction
pay or g00gle it (seqrch for #APP_NAME apk) to get the plus version

Hmmm, it ran for me at once, but I guess that was cos I was using a custom ROM. Try one with Hybrid settings and compatibility view - Rootbox, PA or PACRom. Or maybe install it on your smartphone, and then try porting it through titanium backup, might work.

You can always get the current version of Naked Browser from the web site here: http://nakedbrowser.com/android/
Dolphin had been phoning home all visited URLs to their server, even unencrypted https URLs which is a serious blunder. They're not the only ones pulling crap like this. Most Android browsers are spying on users in some way.
In response to this situation, I made Naked Browser. It will never spy or monitor in any way. There aren't even ads. It does not run on boot, does not phone home data, etc. It is just a web browser. If you use the exit button, it actually exits. If you return to your home screen, it goes to sleep and does not wake up unless you go back to it.

android.permission.READ_CONTACTS
It is not widely known but apps can query contact data without requiring the READ_CONTACTS permission in the manifest. Why would a web browser need to read your contact data?
android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS
android.permission.USE_CREDENTIALS
These could potentially be used by the browser to auto-login to Google but they could also be used for really evil purposes.
android.permission.READ_LOGS
Basically no app should have this privilege. All kinds of data can be gathered this way.
Execution of external commands
This is scary because it means the app may be extending its tentacles almost anywhere, especially if you are rooted.
Cipher(AES/CBC/PKCS5Padding)
They're encrypting data, presumably to phone it home. WebView-based browsers do not need to do this as the WebView component handles all encrypted traffic. This is something extra added by this app which may have a legitimate use but may also be phoning home data about users.
