Hello,
I have a really quick question about the GingerBlur Rom. At the bottom of the home page where it has the phone/dropdown/browser, is there a way to replace the default browser icon there with say, dolphin HD? Or at the very least have the browser icon open dolphin HD? I would appreciate any help.
Download any other browsers and it will ask you which one to use every time you click on the browser icon. Unless you choose to always use the one of your choice by default.
I'm using Go launcher, it's easy to change the target of every shortcut on the dock. Maybe that's possible; have you tried long-pressing on the browser icon?

Going back and forth between Alien and CM7 - love CM7 functionality, but occasionally need some of the stuff still in work on the ROM and will decide to go back to Alien.
One thing I find myself really missing is the fact that CM7 groups your widgets when you go to add - so instead of having 8-12 widget options for a single app, you'll have one entry for the app that says (12 widgets) or something similar.
Is there any way to flash this functionality onto the system if running a different ROM?
Thanks!
Homebase 6.2 Blue Chronic rom has this as well as cm7...

I have an issue with Mini Dolphin Browser and workshed's 4.0 odex'ed gsb 4.0 cyanogenmod 7.1.0.
EVERYTIME I leave the browser in any manner including home button and sleep mode, when I come back ALL tabs fully refresh once I jump back to the browser.
It did not do this non-rooted or with xtrasense.
It's as if its done a low memory dump of the cache EVERY time I leave the program. (It only did the dump before if the program sat for a good while not being used).
4.0 odex'ed default performance except animations turned off.
Dolphin mini cached to sd.
Adwlauncher ex 5x5 grid with tron glow legacy theme.
Zip themer used with a froyo tron theme (found here).
That's the major visual changes and rom / browser info.

Note: I installed dolphin HD (more bloated than mini) and it only seems to refresh if program is unused for a while.

Has anyone found a tabbed browser that has the menu button designed in so there isn't so much wasted space at the bottom of the screen?
I use dolphin HD and I have tried boat browser as well...
Thanks...
Chrome is an awesome browser (it will sometimes take a couple of seconds to 'launch' but once its on it's blazing fast) and it doesn't have the menu bar.
Either way, if you are rooted why haven't you flashed a ROM/mod that gets rid of that menu bar?
Root and flash the mod penises a ROM with it built in. Sadly the default browser won't work right after for some reason

the stock as well as ICS+ are both tabbed with no extra buttons on the bottom.
I love boat mini browser. Very fast and tabs quite easily.

Which one is better? Share your opinions.
Everyone talks about Google Chrome. But, I like Dolphin Browser HD because of its add-on support. All bookmarks and Add-ons are one swipe away. And, there's an add-on for quick desktop toggle, too. Worth mentioning that it supports advanced gesture and voice commands!
for me is better dolphin because google chrome is awful with the battery and my battery does not last long.
The new Dolphin HD is super fast if you are on ics.
For now Dolphin Browser HD is the best browser than any other present in the playstore.
Google Chrome is still in the beta state and not available for most countries.
So Dolphin Browser HD wins for now !

Google Chrome is out of beta as announced in Google I/O 2012.
I'll be the first to say I prefer chrome. It's much smoother ever since it got out of beta, I love how opened tabs and all your bookmarks are synced from phone to laptop and visa versa, I love the way tabs are handled the same way as tasks are. Swipe them left or right and they disappear. And also awesome is that you can switch between tabs by sliding from the left or right edges of your screen and into the middle. I guess you can say I'm a huge fan of tab management on chrome

Open tabs sync between phone and laptop is really a nice feature of Chrome which Dolphin users are jealous of.
When it comes to tab switching, I can use volume keys in Dolphin. But yes, managing a large number of tabs is a pain in Dolphin.
Dolphin Browser HD is the best browser with lots of features like multiple tab & Add-ons option like desktop Firefox browser. Dolphin Browser is the world's first Gesture, Sonar & Add-on enabled mobile web browser on Android.
Dolphin HD is good but with recent versions [on ICS] having more than 5 tabs open leads to a force close each and every time. Earlier versions didn't have that problem but I'd rather deal with that than Chrome. The add-ons support tho >>>
Dolphin HD has flash support, allows custom user agents and doesn't require ICS. On my GB Droid 3 its my default browser and I've been satisfied with it. If you have ICS or JB the default browser is much improved, I believe it uses a Chrome/webkit derived rendering engine anyways. It has flash and allows a desktop user agent.
What about the current versions on ics
No flash sets Chrome back for me even tho I use it as my main browser.

The standard ICS browser is, in my opinion, faster than any browser out there..
I use Dolphin HD on my tablet, but chrome on my phone... I personally like more Chrome, but on the tablet the Dolphin experience is a bit better.
I think stock ics browser is best out there.

I use Dolphin because it smoother, Chrome lags surprisingly much. Also Dolphin changes the layout of text when I zoom so I don't have to scroll sideways all the time

In dolphin you can't easily switch between tabs nor you can close tab easily.

I just hate the way it handles zooming. Chrome seems much better at that but more clunky with other things.
I keep going back and forth...

What? You click the open tab to close it. Is that hard? Switching is done by clicking it. That's one click, It's two clicks in chrome or the swipe thingy ( that one is actually really nice, I miss it a bit, but you can't say It's hard in dolphin). You can also assign gestures to switching tabs, but I haven't really found gestures that convenient.

I still use Dolphin, Chrome lags but also won't let me push that URL bar off the top for full screen browsing. Seriously, these devices all use 16:9/10 ratios, and the bottom of the screen on a tablet is already taken up by the taskbar, so Chrome has you almost "peering through a letterbox" at websites.
