Sorry if this is not the right place to ask this, but is there any way to adjust the settings in the Google Chrome browser so that it shows regular websites instead of their mobile versions? Thanks.

Yes:
1. Open browser and type about:debug in the address bar
2. Tab the menu icon in the upper right corner
3. Select Settings
4. Select Debug
5. Select UAString
6. Select Desktop
That will do it.

I changed UAString to Desktop in debug mode but websites still load as mobile. Any idea how to do it properly?
Wish I knew, but I so far haven't heard anything about it in terms of a solution. Its one of the only things holding me back from flashing TouchWiz, because I know it would aggravate me way to much
I've tried using the stock browser apks from the xoom, transformer, galaxy tab 10.1 on the touchwiz rom and still nothing. I think I'm doing something wrong though.
Also, how about a fullscreen mode in the stock TouchWiz browser? I have found no way to do this like in all other browsers. The top bar is always showing I think.
And Jesus, no re-flow of text on pages to resize to fit when zoomed in right? F'in riduclous.
My problem is the opposite, I cannot get out of full screen mode. WTF!!!!!
Nevermind, I have some type of popup that occurs when I touch the right side of the bezel.
you can change the UA string the exact same way that you would in any other android phone.. just type "about:debug" into the address bar, then go into settings and select "debug" tab. It's the second setting.
@gdog1977, you have quick controls enabled in the "labs" tab of the settings. touch and hold either side of the screen until a menu pops up, move your finger to the very bottom icon(four horizontal lines), select "settings" in the popup, and then select the "labs" tab on the left. then de-select the "quick controls" option.

Yes most of us are quite well aware of the about:debug mode, but again the problem is not switching it to the desktop UA, it is getting that setting to actually stick after reboots, etc. Anybody have any other ideas??

In the top right of the Browser is a menu button, click on it. Under General is a Set Homepage option. The Browser will open with the last page visited unless you close using the x on the tab or use back button until browser closes.
I have set the homepage on my TFP original/default browser to http://news.google.com but there doesn't appear to be a way of putting a Homepage button on the address bar.
Have I missed something?

You sure have....and all it required was a little playing around with the Prime.
When you have the browser open, in the upper right hand corner are 3 dots...click on those and the bottom choice is SETTINGS. Click on that, and DADA....you can set your home page.

He knows how to set the homepage. He's asking if there is a button to click on that brings you to that homepage.

Yeap, I've already set the homepage, I'm just trying to find out how to get to it from the browser main screen!
Anyone?
Only way I have found is to open a new tab which will then go to your home page
I set a web site as an icon on the home screen but when I click it I get a tiny popup window instead of the web browser. HELP.
Sounds like you have the popup browser set as the default. Go to Settings>Application Manager>All>scroll down to popup browser, select it and then click the clear defaults option.

Thanks, that was my first attempt.
Guess I picked "always" the first time I did it so I had to go to
menu/settings/apps/all/menu/reset.
Thanks though.
Yesterday, a blue semicircle appeared on my Galaxy S3 and now I can't find a way to delete it, just move.
Here's a quick preview of it (I found the S3 image on Google and put the circle)

Also, you can move the circle on left/right side and also on top, but you can't delete it. And when you "open" it (with the finger going up/down/right/left) few applications appear (actually, those apps are installed with the Android itself, but...). Any help?
Multi Window.
I believe it's a Multi Window feature.
To Disable It:
1. Open "Setting" App
2. Tap on "Display"
3. Unmark to Enable/Disable Multi Window

You can activate/deactivate multiwindow feature by long pressing the back button.
