Opera 10 works fine for me with flash. you can also try http://www.uzard.com/en/main/main.asp. This is a server based browser, like Skyfire, which works fine but one must be aware of privacy issues with this type of surfing
I used to use Skyfire but i switched to xScope and absolutely love it. I wouldn't go back to anything else now. Dolphin is also very popular but i didn't like it so much.
hi there is xscope just for android or can it be used for winmo too ?

Hey guys, I wanna cook my own rom and I'm looking for some ideas to include. I don't need powerpoint and excel but I do need mms and im. also I'm curious which browser you guys like the most. I hate pocket IE. I'm looking to make a more entertainment based rom.
Any input would be great.
Perhaps you could cook in the HTC AudioManager and the YouTube app. For web browsing I use Skyfire but if you don't like that I assume most people would suggest putting in Opera.

you can add battery status =D (I LOVE IT).......HTC task Manager if you don't like the one from battery status =D(i don't like the battery status one)
Is development for dolphin browser plugins open? Is there some kind of sdk I can download? I'm thinking of switching from opera mobile but I really miss speed dial and it probably wouldn't be too hard to cook up if it's possible.
And yea, I know there's already a dolphin speed dial app and it looks great, but my backflip is unrootable and stuck on 1.5, apparently this plugin doesn't work with the non hd version.

A post from 3 years ago, hmm, I know dolphin built their dolphin open platform last year.
My brother just got this phone, and he's loving it! We've got CM6 up and running. Is the default browser the best one? Or is there another browser he should look at? I ask specific to this device, and not to android in general, due to the relatively small screen size.

I personally like Opera Mobile a lot, it works very well on my Mini and it has support for HTML5 videos, you should also get Skyfire for general flash video support.
I've found opera not to support multi-touch on my mini pro, dolphin mini or dolphin hd do though. +1 for skyfire

Skyfire 4 FTW, Dolphin Mini is not that bad either.
Skyfire is not compatible with X10 Mini Pro?
Skyfire is fully compatible, just using it. When you can't play videos on Skyfire4, uninstall it, download Skyfire 3, run Skyfire 3, uninstall Skyfire 3 and than install Skyfire 4 and you will get licence for watching videos

But don`t appears in market to download....
You will need to use the hacked market from the development forum as the market will not show skyfire due to our screen resolution, despite this skyfire runs beautifully.
You can download .apk file and install it manualy, just search for it.
i suggest you use skyfire too, works like a charm on the phone
Opera Mini 6 on my Xperia mini pro works great and supports dualtouch...
If you are on slow GPRS or EDGE connections than Opera Mini is the fastest among all the browsers that I have tried.
Miren browser comes close to opera mini in terms of performance on slow connections and has an option of clearing the cache and exiting so that the RAM memory can be reclaimed by the operating system.
So what exactly has to be done, to find Skyfire in the market?
I already tried "Market Enabler", but that one didn't do the job, and although I searched for it, I could not find the .apk to install it manually. I looked through the dev forum, but could not find a "hacked" market.
I am running MiniCM7-2.1.8 btw.

Works for me too!
I am using Dolphin Mini Browser now, as it seems to be the best option for such "low end" mobile.
From what I read Opera is closed source and the traffic is "optimized" using their proxy servers, which means they can track & analyze all your steps in the web, which is nothing I would trust (as if one isn't already sharing enough data in the net). But to be honest, I don't really know the situation concerning the Dolphin company as well, so both may be in the same ship?
I haven't used the browser on the mobile much by now, so I can not really tell if it is the best option, but it will have to do for now.
Can anybody recommend a good open source browser for Android? On my PC I only use Firefox and Midori, but unfortunately those are not an option on the phone.
you should try uc browser works perft on my psp go
and on my iphone 3gs so it should work fine on xperia
by the way , whats that market called blackmarket ??
Ok opera it is fast and nice looking. But many pages not showing good. Thay are smashed. I lot travell in my country with buses. And when i need to open the page with timetravel table it is all smashed, evan id i unchack text warp. Also page of my university had view proble, with opera.
Because of that i use mini boat. Simple lookung but works nice.

Hi guys
Sorry to post another browser thread, but i searched and all i could find were threads full of people saying how bleedingly fast Opera Mobile is for them, so i had to post this.
I've been trying it out in comparison to the stock Android Browser (i'm using a Galaxy SII on 2.3.4). To test, i was loading up the full desktop version of the Engadget site, as it has lots of graphics and seems like a good test.
Well, the stock browser finished loading (i.e the little green bar) in about 20 or so seconds (didn't time it exactly as the difference between the two browsers is so massive). On Opera Mobile it loads for, and i'm not joking here, about 2 whole minutes! The site is readable long before then in fairness, but it should not be taking this long surely. I was using 3G for both tests so i cannot see why there is such a huge difference. I tried out a few other sites, and they too were much slower, so it wasn't a one-off.
The thing is i really like the Opera browser and would love to use it, but not with these kind of load times.
Can people share their experiences, and let me know if i'm not alone in this regard, or if i'm missing something?
Cheers guys.

Opera Turbo usually introduces such 'infinite' loadings for me. Have you tried turning it off?
Yes
I had a bunch of problems with Opera as well......Sticking with Dolphin for now as stock is not playing well with CM7
No.

Thanks for the replies guys. I turned off Turbo and it made a big difference I have to say. The jury's out though as to whether our not it's actually any faster.
Something else is bugging me now though
The font in Opera Mobile is just horrible. I've changed my system font in Display Settings to Helvetica S. With it webpages look so much nicer, but Opera mobile uses it's own horrible font. Is there any way I can make it use the same font as the rest of my device?
opera mini is the fast one... though fairly buggy
Hey guys, this is mike and i would like to know which browser would you recommend for an android mobile phone or tab because Mozilla is very slow in android phones so if you know anyone else then please let me know?
I appreciate your time and patience.
Thanks a lot!!

Depending on your device Chrome works flawless (On Nexus 4 is impressive, whereas on S3 was a bit slugglish, so pretty much device dependant). You can also try to search in here for AOSP Browser which is the default browser for AOSP ROM's and behaves pretty well too ^^

Dolphin works great, even though i don't like the fact it used to reset my openened tabs after reboot (I usually stack over 20 tab to read later or similar, and that nerfed a bit my experience even it works great, definitely worth a try!). Maxthon used to be a nice browser back in my Sensation times, it's been a while since I used it but some dev's even include them on their builds, so worth a try as well.
As nearly everything in android world you should just try it, usually worth the experience because it hardly depends on device and use (for example, my "special" use and Dolphin browser).
Best regards,
