[Q] [Request] perental control application? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So i've been looking around for a perental control application to restrict web surfing from porn and violence but wasnt able to find something that even tries to do so.. Is it possible that android doesn't have one?
Does anyone knows of such app? paid apps oviously works.
It doesnt have to be tracked or anything, just something that blocks types of content.
Thanks!

have you looked at this:

not exactly what i looked for
thank for the answer!
there's also k9 browser that can provide the same feature but i really rather use the mini boat browser that i love so much..
and anyway its kinda sucks that it always depend on specific browsers and not as a general app that control the smartphone..
anyone got another suggetions?

[Q] Is there an app to allow full websites and no mobile versions?

Was wondering if you guys could help me to find an app to do this? Certain sites like ebay go straight to their mobile version when I try to access it on my phone... I want to be able to go to the full versions of websites ask the time. Is there an app that would block sites from being able to read that I'm on a phone? Thanks

You can change your browser settings to make it look like mozilla or anything you want. Try reading google or anywhere else instead of posting questions with answers everywhere.
@fenixnr. You can't do that on the stock browser anymore. Don't be a troll.
@ O.P. you have to use an alternate browser for that. Try dolphin HD. Then look in the setting and change the user agent to desktop.

If you're running any 2.2 ROM, you can use the stock browser to view non-mobile sites by typing "about:useragent" (without the quotes) into the address bar and selecting "Desktop" from the dialog that comes up.
Aside from that, you will need to use another browser from the Market.
The ucweb has the function you looking for. It is the most popular mobil browser in China. I don't know if there is a English version.
ok thanks guys... i have dolphin hd so i'll try that... i actually like the stock browser better so i may try that method as well, you have been a big help, thanks!

[Q] Windows Live / MSN Messenger Support?

I know there's some lengthy workaround to the lack of live/msn support on the Touchpad, but it also seems pretty buggy. Is there a plugin available or client app at all?
Thanks!
I dont have a touchpad yet but if nothing else works you could a web app for it.
For example: http://imo.im

are you talking about the Jabber workaround? If my Gtalk worked I would use it.
The imo site it cool thanks LP.
[Q] Windows live messenger/MSN client or compatability
The default instant messenger client on the touchpad doesn't presently support WLM/MSN. Does anyone know of any plans to create a dedicated app or a plug in for the stock IM application?
I was going to ask the same thing. Seems like search isnt working, but someone mentioned there is hack to get it working. Just wish search was up! grr

seems a bit much for what its worth, but if youve got some free time
If nothing else works you could try install an msn program from UbuntuChroot?
[Q] can you get msn messenger on the touchpad ?
I see the likes of google, aol etc are there, but the most popular one isn't ?
anyway of adding msn messenger to the hp touchpad ?
the only way ive seen is to use the jabber work around, just google 'jabber touchpad' and it will come up, but you need linux to make it work it seems :/ other than that you could always just use ebuddy from the browser doesnt seem to have any discernible lag
Yeah the chat program is a little lame...no MSN or Facebook chat...and the facebook app doesn't include the chat feature...so have to use plain web browser.
Any update on this? I really need/require msn/windows live messenger support
There is a way to do it, when I have a little time I'll see if I can find the site with instructions.

Here you find some sometimes ..

there was an app that kill wifi for all other devices on the network, and it was abandon from the market ..
There are loads of apps outside of the google store, and well the XS has a few stores of its own built in from sony.
But as for good apps, swype from http://www.swype.com/
Its the keyboard from the Samsung galaxy S series and once you swype you never go back. It takes a little getting used to but it is so much easier / faster / accurate to use!
It was one of the first things I tried on my XS and was so glad that it worked straight off.

But Swype is already on the phone out of the box so why would you install this? (Unless you ment your happy it was pre installed).

Your S has Swype built into the default keyboard.
I didn't notice the default keyboard had support for 'gesture inputs' as they put it as the phone didn't mention it and I don't think I read it in any review either.
I shall give the default keyboard another whirl then and see which one I prefer
This is freaking awesome. I didn't know it was built in by default. I was using the Chinese keyboard and switching it to English.
Thank you guys!

A simple ways is to google .apk or file sharing forum that would yield a lot of result..
there are thousand of alternative market, forum and warez sites for android out there..
Mostly i use it to get apps that are not available for my country like bing as well as to get maps to allowed voice guidance navigation

this browser is amazing for the note

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.myboyfriendisageek.airbrowser
Thanks for the suggestion. I'm looking for an alternative to the stock one. Why do you like it so much? And did you try chrome, firefox or any the other browsers out there?
+1 I use this browser for its floating capability. It works great in that respect.
Does anyone know if there are any other apps like this? It would be nice to maybe be able to do this with any app.

I hit thanks by accident lol. The developer who makes this browser also makes Stick it! the floating video player, a floating calculator, and floating terminal emulator. The maker of A.I. Type keyboard make a floating split keyboard (useful on the Note when using tablet mode). Those are the floating apps I know about.
As far as any app having the ability to float, there is a thing called Cornerstone that allows for floating windows with up to three apps at once. I believe it's being used on tablets and I heard it may be implemented into CyanogenMod but I don't know much about that. Here's a link:

Wow, nice find. It has a great interface. I LIKE!
The floating Window really does make multitasking seamless. The only sticking point I have encountered is os related. The excruciatingly slow upgrade schedule imposed by at&t/Samsung means a large base of gnotes users are still on the "offical" bloated gingerbread rom.
If you want flash support on this browser, then you will have another reason to upgrade to ics.
Just what do you think you're doing, Dave? Dave, I really think I'm entitled to an answer to that question.
this and stick it are sick! Good to show off the multi tasking our phones are capable of and to use up all this screen!

install older version of mi browser on miui 11??

hello,
am on miui 11.0.5.0 global and was able to remove the stock mi browser(v10.....etc).
am trying to install an older version of mi browser that had better features than newer versions , it installs but keeps closing everytime i open it!
is there any workaround to make it work?
I know I'm not answering your question.
But why exactly do you prefer to use a browser filled with ads and junk?

Poco launcher gives you a neat way of hiding those bits of xiaomi scurf that you can't uninstall - why not just do that and browse with Iron or something better?

Regardless of ads or not, why do you still insist on using a inferior browser when there are so many others out there that do a better job.

i already mentioned the cause above!......the old version am talking about has a certain feature that isnt working anymore in new versions!.
All you mention is "the feature I'm looking for" or the "cause I'm looking for"
There's no direct mention or explanation of what you're looking for. Maybe more people will help you if you choose to explain a bit more rather than shut down every comment that's trying to help you.

the reason for posting this topic is to get help regarding running an older version of miui browser that installs but closes everytime i open in oreo/pie/q ......it runs fine on other android phones on nougat!!.
specifying the feature thats working on this old browser and not working on recent versions wont help coz poeple who "try to help" would simply recommend using other newer versions or even different browsers!!
if i wanted to shut comments ....i would have simply ignored any replies without a direct solution!!.
Okay, so you know how it works in the software world. Nobody codes everything from scratch. What we do is build upon the work of others to get what we want. Your previous browser would have been built with various libraries that it hooks into to provide different functionality. Now a new one has come out which was installed on your fone and this is using later versions of the libraries and possibly some APIs may have been dropped. So you're trying to use the old browser with the new libraries and it's entirely possible that the APIs/ABIs it needs are no longer available. So you're SOL. You're going to have to run your browser in debug mode to see what's wrong. I hope it works out for you.
