You can use a stylus to scroll in the default web browser, in twitter, instagram, reddit sync... however why isnt this enabled in google chrome? Is there a mod I can do so it will scroll with the stylus being placed near the bottom of the page?

Twitter links do not open in Opera, but in IE

I installed Opera Mobile 10 beta, then uninstalled it. Since then all web links open in IE instead of Opera, which is my default browser. IE asks after every launch if I want it to be the default browser, and Opera not, so this should be set correctly. But all web links (from twitter, from shortcuts, from internet tab bookmarks) open in IE. How can I fix this?

Facebook app

well i grabbed my sister ipad today and saw that in landscape mode there is also chat
will this available for transformer sometime?
The Facebook app includes chat and if I remember correctly Facebook also made a separate app to chat that is also on the market.
This:

Sent from my Captivate
Facebook text chat is still available in the Android app; left corner- 3 lines tap those and a full page menu opens.
I personally just use imo.im and put all of my chat protocols in there. GTalk, Skype, Yahoo, MSN, Facebook, and many more.
It does not do video chat with anyone via GTalk or Skype, but if someone wants to do that I just launch the native app. Then I do not have to worry about doing facebook chat from within the FB app.

Thanks! I never thought to scroll down in that menu. I usually just use that menu to search for a friend and since I'm in a few groups I never saw the chat option below.

I believe facebook has a separate app for ipad, while we have to use the ugly phone version on our tablet
anyone knows about a solution for the chat that scrolls up on the browser on ics?
worked fine on HC

How to set default browser for urls read from NFC?

I have Dolphin set as my default browser. This works fine when I click web urls in other apps, but if I read an NFC tag with a web url on it, it always opens in chrome. Likewise, if I usse "Android Beam" to send a web page from another device, it opens in Chrome. How do I set a different browser as default for NFC urls?

Settings>Apps->Chrome->Clear Defaults
This should enable you to then choose Dolphin as your default browser again and have it stay this time.

Nope. In Chrome App Info it says there are no defaults set for chrome.
For some reason, android doesn't recognize Dolphin or Aurora as apps capable of opening urls from NFC tags, so as the only recognized app, Chrome was opening automatically. Installed AOSP browser, and then it gave me a choice, and I could set a default (but only between Chrome and AOSP).
How do you change or clear defaults for the NFC functions? Right now when I beam a webpage from Chrome to my phone, the phone uses Firefox to open (prior to installing Firefox it used Opera Mini) and it never asked me to choose a default app. I wnat Chrome to be the default app for receiving URLs/links via NFC or beam. How do I change this?
bump, anyone know why Opera/Firefox opens as the default browser when sending NFC links using Chrome? I want Chrome to be the default for NFC but can't find where to control that

[Q] 3rd Party Apps Cannot Access Albums (Insta, Facebook, Fb Messenger, WhatsApp)

This has been bothering me for quite a while now, and I'm hoping you guys might have some insight.
I believe that around the time Google upgraded to Kit Kat, something became "broken".
At that time, my 3rd party apps (FB, FB messenger, WhatsApp and Instagram) could no longer access my Google photo albums directly.
I just chalked it up to an API change that the 3rd party devs needed to catch up with.
It took a while, but eventually seemed to have been fixed.
However, now that I'm on Lollipop, "Photos" has replaced the old Android "Gallery" app.
The same problem has cropped up again.
I can't access "Albums" via instagram, FB Messenger or WhatsApp.
For example:
In WhatApp,
- When clicking "Attachment -> Gallery", it only shows local folders (physically on the phone).
- When clicking "Attachment -> Gallery", then "3 dots" for more, I am presented with a neutered version of the Photos App with only "All, Highlights and Auto Awesome".
I believe this would be classified as a "pull" case.
However, it seems to be broken for a "push" case as well.
Navigating through the "Photos" app into a Album, clicking "share" -> Instagram,
The phone jumps me to Instagram, but it doesn't do anything past that.
It's almost as if no other apps are allowed to access "Albums".
Do you guys have any idea what's going on?
Has Google banned 3rd party software from accessing albums?
I've tried to Google this issue with any combination of keywords but I can't seem to find it.
Keywords "album", "picasa", "instagram", "whatsapp", "lollipop", "gallery", "3rd party"
The keywords are just too generic and doesn't return anything useful.
Hoping you guys might have some insight?
A workaround, perhaps even a fix?
Thank you in advance for your time.
