after flashing nonsensikal 10.1 i noticed a graphic glitch in the browser, so i removed it with root explorer and replaced it with one from a previous version. the browser would not show up in the app drawer. i went back to it in the system/app folder and clicked it, installed it (it actually said it installed surprisingly) and tried again, with no luck. removed it, tried again with browser from current version, same effect. its not there.. the apk is in system/app, but browser wont show in app drawer..
i prefer stock broswer to others in the market.. please help me fix!

Hi,
I was searching in xda same thread, but couldn't find an answer.
I'm using Dophin Browser, ADW.Launcher EX and others and I'm freaking when after every reboot I must check to use Dolphin as default. How to remove system internet app and replace it with Dolphin? Tried replacing the browser.apk in system/app and it doesn't work. I still can use system internet app. What I am doing wrong?

delete whatever you want to delete from /system/app which you dont want like browser.apk twlauncher.apk
they will never bug you..
beware while deleting as you are doing on your own risk as they are system files..
deleting something unintentional will leave you with only one option and that will be REFLASH or beg for that file from someone else
I deleted browser.apk and browser.odex (I'm using CM 7.1 by Grif_07) and adw.launcher.apk(without ex) and yes, Internet apk disappeared but ADW Launcher (without EX) still existed. Now every app after launching gives me fc. I'm getting apps back from backup.

After restoring browser.apk and .odex I'm not getting fc anymore(on FriendCaster and my national communicator), but how browser.apk and .odex can affect on FriendCaster app?

Any app doesn't see system internet app now! Thanks!

Hello,
I have an Archos 43 tablet and have been running UrukDroid 1.5.1 for a while now without issues. I recently discovered that 1.6 was released, so I upgraded to that successfully. However, now I'm missing the default android web browser. The Market app and apps I installed via the Market are still there. I do not see the default android web browser available via the Market (searching for "browser" and "web browser").
I've been searching the forums for answers to this but haven't had any luck. Is there an apk or something I need to install to give me the web browser back? I find it does exist when I reboot back into the official Archos firmware, but it's gone when running Urukdroid now.
Thanks,
Scott
Edit: I just managed to upgrade to 1.6.1 and this made no difference, the web browser is still gone.
have a look in /system/app.old
If it's there copy it to /system/app and reboot.
Don't copy everything, just the one apk

If I try to download files to my browser through pretty much any share site, I either get download failed or a 1kb htm file. I know the solution to this is to install opera browser. Problem is, I like the stock browser especially now that its all synced up with my Google account. I have tried astro file manager (option to allow browser downloads and that didn't work either.
If the astro file manager thing didn't work maybe try Download All Files from the Play Store. And if that doesn't you could try a modded browser such as ICS Browser+, also in the Play Store.

more info required as which ROM are you on... GB/ICS...
although i dont think it makes a difference...
If on ICS stock brower... go to menu ...settings..advanced... default storage...
see if its selected to phone...(memory card only if you have one slotted in the phone)
i just checked a download from www.filehippo.com
works for me...
i dont think you need to use any other browser or app to download stuff...
Hi,
I have downloaded dozen of stuff using dolphin hd but the "Downloads" app is showing no content! Its totally empty!
But if i navigate to the "/sdcard/download/" folder via my files app i can see all the downloads!! as this is what is set in the dolphin browsers settings.
Is this download app not linked with the folder mentioned above?
what folder do i have to set in dolphin browser to see my downloads when i tap the downloads app?
Specs:
Galaxy S2
CheckRom RevoHD v6
Dolphin HD Browser
Download app has this white arrow in green background icon
Thanks
no suggestion
If you have cleared download history then you can't see your download stuff in the list again unless you have a titanium backup or dolphin browser and you had backed it up at the time you had download list
Hi,
No, i didn't clear any history.
I flashed checkrom. installed dolphin hd. downloaded stuff and then realized that the download app is not showing anything! No history no nothing cleared.
Eventhough all what i download is being properly saved to "/sdcard/download/". I even get the "Download Complete" message in the notification bar but the app still remains empty
I always have to navigate there using "My Files" to open the downloaded stuff whenever i need it.

Try clear data of dolphin browser or install "Download all files" from market
Hi.
I'm new to these forums and to Android phones.
I'm having the same problem as Thindboy in my Samsung Galaxy Note i717.
My Note hasn't been rooted and I also have Dolphin Browser HD. I think that this problem also happened with the built in Android browser but I can't remember. Dolphin Browser download folder is set as: /mnt/sdcard/download
I followed sahibunlimited suggestions but even with the "Download All Files" app the files are still saved in the previously mentioned directory.
Does anyone know the address of the directory that the "Download" app in Android uses?
If it is the same one that I mentioned, does anyone know what might be going on
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

SOLVED.After hours and hours searching the internet i finally found and downloaded original stock rom, in dedex format, and then extracted browser.apk from it. After that i put broswser.apk into sys folder of phone(via Root explorer) and set appropriate permissions , so that they look alike other's app's permissions (rw-r-r in this case), then i rebooted my phone and Voila everything was fine, my old stock browser was back <3. I just needed to dload and install ChromeBookmarksSyncAdapter_blackhand1001.apk from this thread tnx to blackhand1001, so i could sync my boomarks from PC Chrome to stock browser on my phone.
Can u help me? I rooted my pap 5044, and deleted stock apps, but now that update came, i cant apply i cant install it. With 1.0.42 update, it also updates stock apps which i deleted. What can i do, how can i get those deleted aps?
