I am pretty sure stock browser does that. When I double click on a page, it zooms in and wraps the text.

My immortal is quite right, just double tap the screen on the stock browser to resize

And if you find double-tapping too troublesome, you can always try Opera.
Thanks i dont have the stock browser as im not in the stock rom ! :/

Use opera or ff. Not all websites support mobile view.

Today I just install Adobe Reader. And found something REALLY interesting.
Have any one try Adobe Reader?
When I open PDF using Adobe Reader, I just fool around with its feature including PINCH zoom. And found a shocking event. It WORKS RANDOMLY. Well it might be just a bug though.
I try to slide my two finger in and out. Sometimes it zoom in when I slide in my two finger, sometimes it does nothing, sometimes it zoom in when I slide out my two finger. It applied with the zoom out and it's a random event.
I won't post any controversial video here. Just try it by yourself. Find Adobe Reader at the market and it's only around 1,8MB in size. Please post your experience here.
Ya the pinch thing happens to me too but i'm wondering if it may be just double tapping that we don't notice

Maybe. But still it feel great to see "pinch" zoom in my phone. Lol.

I can't seem to make this work, unless I rotate the screen from portrait to landscape and back again.
Can anyone tell me how to make it work after pinch zooming?
Thanks,

What about it?
double tap to the screen.
That zooms out, and reflows, but doesn't reflow to the size you make the text with pinch zoom.

Haven't had mine come through yet so I've not been able to test this but in the Techradar review they say:
"One gripe we do have is the text reflow, as it doesn't do it automatically – you have to double tap the screen slowly to activate it when pinching to zoom in."
Hope that helps

This was the arrogant comment. Of course I've tried first, why else would I be starting a thread on the issue?

thats you misunderstanding.
did you checked autofit pages box under the the browser settings before trying to do that?
What did you mean then?
I've tried the auto fit pages button, but it didn't seem to have any effect

Confirmed, this does NOT work. Some oversight.
Like others have said, this does not reflow, it just zooms out to fit the text onto the screen...
this is a huge deal.
what about if you just load a regular page, zoomed out completely. then double tap somewhere, it should zoom in. does it reflow after a double tap in that fashion?
99% of my usage is just double tap on a place, and browser reflows teh text. i dont care about pinch to zoom reflow necessarily. any luck with double tap method?
Double tao appears to reflow correctly, but unfortunately that's not much good for many scenarios where I would like larger text
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Yep, as above. The Nexus S had this issue too but got round it with the + and - in the lower right corner. Text would be off the edge after pinch to zoom but tapping either the + or the - reflow it while maintaining the text size previously set. No such luck here though.
Guys my SGS1 had been lost for almost a month, but as far as I remember the stock browser would not reflow on "pinch to zoom", would only reflow on "double-tap to zoom", and only on certain pages that had clear resizeable DIV/TABLEs (html language)?
So on mosr mobile browsers ive used, be it android or ios, double tap to zoom on an article usually zooms in re sizes snd re alignes the document in a way thats more readable so one does have to keep panning while reading.
Is it only my phone that doesnt do that?

hi !
go to browser>>>settings>>>more>>>settings>>auto-fit pages (mark).

Oh thank you, thank you, thank you.

In the stock browser, I hit menu then more and select text. It lets me select text, then what? How do I copy? I go to the same spot in the menu as "select text" after selecting and there are no new options. Long pressing on selected text also gives me nothing.
sent straight from my brain....
You highlight the text and then hit the highlighted stuff and it gives you option.

once it is selected long press on the highlighted text for the options menu
Or just switch to dolphin browser HD it has better copy/text functions and tabbed browsing.
I couldn't get down with the Dolphin Browser myself. I just use stock. Couldn't really find one I was happy with.
Agreed on the browser... I use stock, but I do have Skyfire installed for sites that the stock browser hoses up.

I don't like skyfire much myself but any browser is better than stock. I love the tabs and gestures in dolphin. It's pretty much Firefox but it actually pwns the android Firefox browser lol.
Android Firefox was absolutely horrible.

Yeah. Pretty much.
Is there any way to enable text reflow on the browser, it's annoying to keep on navigating side to side.
If there isn't is there a mod in the works?

On the Android stock ICS browser, you get text reflow by pinching to zoom and then double tapping on the zoomed text. I don't have S3, but would expect that works with the S3 browser since it works with the stock android ICS browser on the S2.
Also, there is a browser in the market based on the stock browser, I think it is called ICS+ or something, that does text reflow automatically without double tapping. Also Opera Mobile does text reflow.
Yes, just use Opera, its fast and the text reflow works great! I have no idea why Chrome and Firefox doesn't do reflow, I would think its one of the more obvious feature to have considering that scrolling from side to side is mega irritating

This is an issue on all Samsung (non nexus) devices I have ever had. It doesn't matter if it's a phone or tablet. I was hoping different for the sg3 I guess not. I have had the Moment, tab 7, 7plus, 8.9, 10.1, and Epic 4g touch

yeah I'd recommend ICS Browser+, looks like stock ICS browser and text reflow included

Somewhat on topic, if you get a MMS picture on the stock Samsung Text Message app you cannot pinch to zoom in on the picture, you have to save it first. Is there any setting to zoom in on a pic message??

I don't understand why you can't download it first? On my HOX you click it in the message bubble and it opens a new screen with the picture at about 70% size and you can zoom in.

Me too. It's highly annoying since I want to use this browser as the quick controls are great.
Guys.... I've used all Galaxy phones and this feature IS NOT available on any. You get text reflow at the default zoom level only. The hardware supports it because it's available on CM9, but not on Samsung based ROMS.
Those who say it works don't understand the question, it only works on one of the Opera browsers on the S3.

He's saying that to actually enlarge a picture from MMS you have to SAVE it to your gallery first. Samsung really doesn't know how to make an SMS program. They had it fixed with ICS on the GS2 and then they ruined it again with the GS3.
Just use GoSMS Pro, it's a lot better anyway.
well, I'm on jb official relase and text reflow works for me on stock browser, in advanced settings tick auto-fit and in accesibility settings set force enable zoom and minimum font to 12 pt
