[Q] How Do You Get to the Homepage on the Default Browser? - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

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

home page mail client

You know how when you press the home page web app it redirects you to whatever browser you selected as default? Can that happen for the home page mail client? I want to press the home page mail client and be redirected to the stock gmail client?
Does anyone know if this can happen?
Just replace the icon with the Gmail icon. Right? (I don't have a Note yet.)
The home row can't be adjusted like other phones. Thanks though.

^^^ ??? Sure it can. You go to applications, hit edit, go to customizable view if necessary, and then drag and drop as needed. Then you can switch back to alphabetical view if you want and the changes to the dock icons will stick.
OMG I had no idea! Thanks!

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.

[Q] ICS Quick Browser

Just installed this browser to get rid of the annoying "browser not responding" and thus far, having pretty good luck and really liking the browser, much more than the stock.
My only gripe is, why can I not see the address bar when scrolled down far on the screen? For example, while in any other browser, if I am far down the page, as long as I "pull down" the address bar appears, but while in ICS quick browser, I have to scroll all the way back up to the top.
Is this a setting I can fix, or is that just the way it is? I hope is can be changed because I am really liking this browser.
Thanks!
if you tap once on the visible tab title area the address bar appears.
hope the above makes sense.

I tried that, I figured that would do the trick, but no. I have to go all the way back up. I wonder why this is. For example, I tried it on facebook as well as google news...somewhere I was able to be far down.
No other ideas? tapping in the tab area does nothing.
I been telling people about this browser for awhile now. It's badass! To get to a tab without scrolling all the way back up just tap the 4th button from the left next to the recent tabs key. It's what I always did. Hope that helps you.:good:

4th button ? Sorry but when i lok at the top all i see is the current tab/tabs. What do you mean?
for me clicking on the tab works... for example clicking on the tab title for this page

works to toggle the address bar on and off.

X-Scope Question

Have gone back using X-Scope as my default browser on my phone after their recent big updates but 2 things i cant seem to find out, whereabouts is the address bar gone to type in website URL's and why after closing a tab does it then ask me to exit?
Thanks
If you scroll from the top, you'll have the url bar back.
If you've got no opened tabs, it will suppose that you want to exit, so it just asks how.

sorry mate that isn't working there is no option that i can see to type in a URL at all
in the previous version before the ICS update you could just close the tab and X-Scope closed, with this you close the tab and it then asks you to exit,surely you can just close the tab without having to click on exit too.
anyone any suggestions?

[Q] b and n launch page lost

I am a simple nook tablet user that has accidently changed my launch homescreen away from b&n one and would just get it back since it is what im used to. Never thought to bookmark it and now cannot remember or find addy. Can someone please provide for me so i can reset my homepage. Thnkx
If you mean the BN Nook Book Store it's http://www.barnesandnoble.com/u/NOOK-Book-eBook-store/379003094
web launch page
No I don't mean the store page. The page I am referring to is the one that was preset to come up when you clicked on the web button. It was a b and n page but also had the web search field as part of the page. Sorry to be a dork! Can't believe I never thought to book mark it!

Ok, this means you have an alternate launcher. Open the page with all your apps and look for one called "Home". That should be your stock home page If you can't find one called Home, look for "Home catcher". It's an app where you set what launcher to use when pressing "n".
Edit: Went and looked at rooted stock Tablet. Look in the bottom left corner of your home screen and there should be ymbols with 2 little houses. Touch there and you get a chance to switch to your Home, and also make it your default. "Quick switch" just switches, "Home Manager" let's you set your defailt.

Well, I don't have a clue what's going on! I must not understand you right.
If your device isn't rooted I don't get how the home page can be lost, and your talk about "bookmarking" it makes me extra confused. I associate "bookmark" with web page, and don't know how you could have bookmarked the home launch page
Sorry I couldn't help!
thank you

All I know is it had the same home page forever then somehow last night I was searching some recipes and must have hit something and suddently when I hit the web button on my home page it immediately opened to the food network! Have no idea what I did. I did not go to my settings page and change the home page but when I went there to check it now lists the food channel as my home page with no options to change. Since I have no bookmark to the original home page and cannot for the life of me remember the long page addy I have no idea how to get it back to where it was originally! thanks so much for trying to help! Maybe someone else will have an idea!
Could it be this one?
