Ubuntop & Webtop+ users iGoogle homepage poll - Motorola Photon 4G

So I'm going to step away from the Support My Moto Campaign for a little bit and get some deving done. Seeing that on November 1st 2012 the Google home page service iGoogle will be discontinued I'd like to know how many Ubuntop & Webtop+ users use that service. Of those that use it how many have an alternative to move to and how many really do rely on it? I may be able to set up a basic home page replacement with some of the most commonly used widgets but want to hear from you first.

I used iGoogle for a while but abandoned it once I fell in love with RSS and Google Reader. I can live with it being gone, I don't actually use a homepage in any web browser anymore.

This. I use an rss reader on my phone. Anytime I'm using a computer I don't have a homepage set except for the Firefox default Google search page.

book app for GT10.1

When I get my GT10.1 I plan to read a lot of books. I tried it on my DHD using Aldiko, but I think the screen is to small.
I've seen the videos of the preinstalled book app, it looks sweet! Is it a Google app or Samsung?
I'm wondering what book apps would you reccomend?

It's the Google Books app. But I find myself using the Kindle app.....but I guess that because I have an amazon account.

The google books app and kindle app are both fine, but I need the ability to sideload epub files, so...
I do wish you could limit the page length in aldiko though. One full screen (in portrait) is an awful lot of text.
Aldiko lets you load ePub files from your SD card. I used Aldiko heavily on my Evo 4G but I find myself preferring the Nook app on the tablet. It loads ePubs, splits the pages in two in landscape mode & has page transitions like you see in the Books app. I haven't tried Kindle, but Kobo also lets you load ePubs.
In general I like google book and like the animation of it. However, its still very poor when it comes to functionality. You can't highlight, write note, or annotate. The app by itself remember your last location but you cant mark a page. It still needs more work to be done as i think its unfinished app. I contacted google regarding that, and they said that they are still working to improve the app as its still and i quote "a baby"
I am gonna receive my Tab 10.1 tomorrow and as you have mentioned, i will be doing lots of reading as its one of the reasons i bought the tab. For the meaintime, I think I will go with the Kindle version unless otherwise, google impvorved their ebook.
I am using Nook. Kobo is also good. But anybody know if there is any book app which has built in English dictionary ( or atleast link to an external dictionary) so if you want to know meaning of a word you just highlight and option is there for meaning/synonymous . This is helpful for people for whom English is not first language.
I've tried quite a few, and I find Montano Reader the best for me. Full anotation and highlighting, bookmarking, side loading of epubs and PDF's. I will let you read almost anything.
Asus has a nice books app mybooks I think, they extracted from the transformer Not sure if its working on other tablets yet.

I'm all about Kindle. I guess it's partly because I have a lot of books there, and don't want to switch, but I like that it's not overly animated, and I can highlight and search in google, wikipedia, and see dictionary definitions directly from the page.
Kind of blows me away that google didn't add in the functionality to highlight and perform a google search.
I have tried pretty much every reader on the market after getting my gt10.1. Nook is probably does the best job of having all the desires features (thought definitely not perfect). Kindle and google books are lacking major features (most importantly highlighting, bookmarking etc + importing non-drm files). Third party apps like cool reader, aldiko and fbreader all have great functionality, but they lack the polished UI you get from the big names. So I chose Nook, because it has the most functionality to go with its polished look. If it had custom fonts it would be near perfect for me.
I've been using the Nook app so far for my limited reading. I tried that, a well as the Kindle app, and prefer the Nook app so far. Nook seems to have more formatting options and I like the "butter" color scheme for daylight reading - it's sort in between the white and sepia settings in Kindle(both of which are available in the Book app as well).
My biggest compliant so far is that text selection can be difficult. I haven't quite figured out how to consistently make a selection so far.

Easily transfer what you're doing on a PC to your Android device?

So I find a news article I'd like to read but I don't have time to read it. Is there an app I could install on my phone and my computer to make it easy to me to just push this site to my phone? Ideally I would click a button in my browser and it would cause the browser on my phone to automatically open and display the website I want to read.
Any ideas?
Use a qr code generator to turn the url to a qr code and scan it with your phone?
I think chrome may also have something that accomplishes this. Something about syncing across platforms? Someone illuminate for me.

Ya I usually QR code it. But if you have Chrome beta you can see all the tabs you have opened on other devices and open the tabs on your phone/tablet
Chrome to phone app
Chrome - Chrome to phone extension
Firefox - Fox to phone extension
The best way is to use Pocket(formerly Read It Later, also the name of FF extension). It is universal, Firefox, Chrome, Any android browser(share button) etc. I prefer it to Chrome to Phone.
Firefox has it, once desktop and mobile versions are synchronized.
You open mobile version, you find same bookmarks and open tabs.

This is the best, I have tried them all. I have Pocket on my phone, kindle fire, laptop, and work computer.
Maxthon browser has Cloud Push which is exactly what I was picturing when I asked this question. I didn't really want all my tabs to be synced and I didn't want to deal with add-ons , plugins, or 3rd party apps. I'll install Maxthon on each device and just use that. I like the interface better than any other browser so I'd be switching to it even without this feature.
Thanks for all the suggestions everyone. Much appreciated.
Just to throw another suggestion out there:

it all depends on your needs/preferences, there's a lot nice RSS-readers (and quasi RSS, like BBC app, Zite or World Newspapers) on the market, see for yourself you''l find sth you'll like and keep
myself, after testing about 20 different apps, I've settled with FeedR, it is old, it is not flashy, but it has clean, concise and cofigurable interface, no unnecessary pics, and the news articles open/expand on the same feed page, so there's no need for extra navigation - more than enough for a serial reader

Advice to choose by yourself via Google Play, coz everyone has their own preferences

After trying a handful of RSS readers, I sticked with google reader which I access via browser (Dolphin HD).
The features I was looking for:
Cloud reader (so that I can read my feeds on phone, then come home, open a tablet and resume where I ended)
Seamless follow-up when reading "the rest of the article". Here the Google Reader in the browser really scored because many of the RSS apps provide very nice user experience, however ultimately I end firing up the browser anyway. With G Reader in Dolphin, I can just open the article in a background tab and move on
Of course, YMMV

[Q] Best android browser for CodeAcademy?

Hi,
I like working on the website Codeacademy.com, and would love to do so on my android tablet (kindle HD), or even my phone (razr HD). However, every browser I've tried has had a terrible time with this website: browsers love to zoom in too closely when I start typing, they have trouble scolling in a text window within the main window, etc. (just try it, you'll see what I mean).
Does anyone have any suggestions for a browser that would fare better? Or perhaps dolphin has an add-on that would mitigate the problems? I have trouble believing that I'm the only one who likes to use this popular website on an android device.
Any help is appreciated.
EDIT: The kindle is restricted in its browsers by default, but I haven't had any trouble downloading apks and sideloading, so that's not a limitation to worry about.
Me too
I am looking for it too. It would be awesome if codecademy made an android app for its exercises

Agreed-- though I feel like they shouldn't have to! This website isn't doing anything particularly advanced--it's just a text box to type in--and I feel like one of the myriad android browsers should be able to handle it. Especially since each one has a different unique problem with the website.

			
				
Okay, looks like Maxthon browser works tolerably well. Good browser overall, actually.
Jwdink,
Good to know Maxthon worked for you. I tested many, including Maxthon, and I always get the same problem.
When I click on the box to type, and try to move it up or down, everything goes white and I have to find the box again...
I tested with chrome, opera, firefox, dolphin, dolphin beta, and others less known browsers, and always the same problem happens
Now I'm gonna test with firefox beta..
I emailed codecademy some days ago concerning this matter but got no answer
Did you notice the site doesn't have a mobile version? Maybe if they can create one, it could fix the problem

Maxthon didn't fare to well for this task on my rooted Kindle Fire running Gingerbread .......I sometimes have success with the latest release of Firefox (not the nightly edition) but many times will have to refresh the page to get the coding input box to respond "halfway" normal.
Even on my Windows 7 laptop the site has issues and I've tried IE9 and the latest Chrome. Maybe I'll try Firefox on the laptop today. On the tablet I find myself reading the tutorial from the website on whatever browser I'm using but will not try to implement the code there. I'll just open up my good old text editor and code there using what I learned on the site and then run the code on "x" interpreter (in my case the Python) and it's much easier to do it that way.
When I have the lesson running correctly I will return to the website and "attempt" to complete it on there either possibly with Android Firefox or on the PC so it will keep track of my progress. Otherwise I would get WAY to frustrated trying to get every little step to run in the browser's input box!
And yes, a dedicated app for this website would be ideal

Please, I am a codecademy student and want to ask if you have any recomendation for a good way of using the site on android devices, because it is very difficult to do the exercises on the browsers for android.
For me, and others users, like this guy:

and, I believe, many others students, it would be very very useful if you could make a codecademy app for android, where we could do the exercises.

I don't think its very effective to work on codeacademy from your tablet especially if you aren't using a real keyboard. Codecademy has problems with browsers in osx and windows and I can't imagine how it would work on a tablet which browsers that do much less. Codecademy gives me issues everytime I use it, some courses are sometimes impossible to complete unless codecademy themselves fixes them. Python last summer was uncompletable due to weird errors which tooks weeks to fix.
Also, something you should be doing is after you complete courses, go make something with your newly gained knowledge. I can go through every single course in there and might not have a full understanding without actually making something, plus, you have to get used to dealing with the unexpected because everytime you code, theres going to be some problem. You can't code much things comfortably in Android either, at least I haven't been able to.
Try using ucbrowser.

Foxfire & disable autocorrect/autocomplete
To use codecademy on my rooted Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (n8013) tablet I used Foxfire (stable or beta) browser and I disabled the keyboard's autocorrection/autofill/autocapitalization functionalities.
Tested but couldn't use stock browser, Chrome, Dolphin and Opera. Tested but couldn't use Swype keyboard and Google downloadable keyboard. Something weird happens connected to the shift key.
Should say my Samsung's running stock (Cyanagenmod) Android 4.2.2, no bloatware. Don't know if that matters or not.

Hey,
Im trying to use codecademy and khanacademy.org but im using a Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet (stock rom). Ive tried UC browser as well as many others (chrome, naked, firefox, dolphin, maxthon, boat, maybe more) with no luck. Code isnt selectable or pastable, and sometimes i cant even delete.
I dont have access to a computer at the moment and would really like to take advantage of the interactive tutorials on those sites. I even bought a mouse thinking it would make text selection easy but i now realise android mouse support is lame and just emulates a finger.
If anyone has any solution for this, please let me know.

Hello jwdink,
Thank you for asking this question almost two years ago. Like you, I recently stumbled across the delimma of learning to code at codeacademy.com with my nextbook tablet device.
The solution that works perfectly for me is to request the desktop version of the web browser.
A quick review of the steps involved (Recent Google chrome at time of writing):
Click the menu button
Select "Request desktop site"
The page will reload automatically to a closer version of codeacademy that you are familiar with on the desktop site.

Soul Browser - A litte gem you've probably never heard of

I posted this on the Kiwi Browser thread more in mourning at the lack of support and updates Kiwi has received in the last year or so.
So I stumbled on Soul Browser and it's been excellent so far. Extremely fast and lite. Unfortunately it doesn't have extensions but it's got virtually every function and customization you can think of. Digging into it's background it seems to be from a developer out of the UK so should be safe. It's on the Play Store but not open source unfortunately.
Everything is good and all but i couldn't find the toggle to turn video overlays on fullscreen. i watch something on youtube in portrait mode, when i make it fullscreen, video pauses, sometimes starts from the beginning and i don't like that overlay with full of buttons. How do i turn that of and have smooth transition?

Read the last 5 or so pages of the Kiwi thread on here and most of your concerns are answered. I, and several others, had the same worries but it seems Adguard DNS takes care of most issues. Trackers etc are all Google stuff anyway according to ClassyShark.

I understand it's Chromium based but so is Samsung so all the same.
I'm having issues using it with NextDNS. It works but I get constant SSL errors on Soul which I don't get on Samsung or Kiwi, so there's something NextDNS doesn't like in there but I can't find it in the NextDNS logs. However it works fine with Adguard DNS and all trackers etc are blocked. I added Energized Ultimate to the adblock host list in Soul as an extra measure.
I imported my chrome bookmarks with ease using the html file. So no issues there.
A very good browser and can be greatly configured
(bars on top or bottom in custom size, long press settings, swipe settings, back/forward gestures, double finger gestures, no reload when back/forth, skip to page beginning, floating scrollbar, own blocklists, full auto dark mode, video downloader and much much more). I've never seen a better mobile browser, it's crazy.
But my problem with it is that it doesn't launch native apps from links:
Youtube is launched only if you google for youtube, but not from embedded videos; reddit is launched only if you use native reddit app and not third party one; ebay app doesn't launch and so on. Dealbreaker for me - I feel like on iOS.
Another thing is adblocker isn't consistent. If you jump through tabs and apps and then go back to prev opened website, sometimes there is suddenly an ad running, which was blocked before.
So overall it feels kinda buggy and you can say it's made by one person and on top of that - by a completly unknown entity (no mail, website) originate in Asia.
So I'm back on Samsung Browser beta which is still missing few nice to have things, but is fully baked.

I use Vanced and it launches directly. Check settings and enable the toggle to allow YouTube launch. I don't know about the ebay app but complaining about a 3rd party reddit app isn't the browsers fault.
I've switched off the built-in adblocker and use 1Hosts Pro and Energized Ultimate in the user field and never had that problem even with the built-in one active. Maybe because I also use a private dns adblocker on my devices.
I think the developer is from Korea as there are references to Korean legalities if you dig a little. I use this browser for daily casual surfing and it's fantastic but my main browser is also Samsung for secure and private stuff. Best of both worlds.
Well I use YouTube app and not vanced and it's not working. Toggle is set correctly and as I said some apps are starting, example "eBay Kleinanzeigen".
Ofcourse it's browsers fault if 3rd party reddit client is not starting IF it's registered in system as default reddit client.
Well written browsers always open apps properly: Samsung Browser, Firefox, Yandex and so on, because they respect those flags.
I don't want to need use vpn for adblocking.

I love kiwi, and would stick if it wasn't Chrome 77, but for SB I cannot find anything about it and the dev replies on Play Store don't seem native english (which is fine, but I don't want yet another app later shown to be harvesting data)

I totally agree about how nice this browser is but I'm also VERY MUCH concerned about the risk of privacy violation. Anyone has additional info about this ?
To the author if he's reading us: why don't you show up and talk about this important aspect of your (fantastic) app ?
Cool browser. But there's no option to import passwords
This was my daily browser for a while but now things are getting out of control. So much customisations as I like but not working flawlessly. Sad that no developer communication exist and bugs are not getting fixed.
Really like this browser but I have one really annoying issue : when watching a video in full screen landscape mode and would like to adjust something and tap the screen, the navigation bar do not disappear automatically...
Anybody faced this issue?
