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.

I'm really missing the scroll wheel from the mogul/6800. Is there a way to make the ring scroll in programs that don't have it mapped (like zooming in Opera)? I'd really like to use it to scroll through e-mail. I swear that I got it to scroll once in mail for a split second while the app was still loading, but promptly stopped scrolling once it finished loading.

I know I've seen somewhere (I think over @ ppcgeeks) that there was a way to set up custom apps to use the scroll ring in other applications. I'll look again and see if I can't find it.
you can enable scrolling with the sensor using advance config. At the bottom of the list there will be an option with 5 or 6 sub options
I believe DiamondTweaks also has an option for this

I just installed the file "Advanced_Configuration_Tool_v3.3.cab" and I don't see any options for that in it...
Checking the other program mentioned shortly.

Yes it does. Nice app too.
Not as consistent as it should be but I am sure the developer will improve it steadily.
When I say this, I mean that u can scroll around but onceyou make a selection, you can't scroll within that selection.
In advanced config you have to add the programs that you want to scroll with manually. Open advanced config, go to menu, more settings, smarttouch, and add what ever program you like.
there are 2 programs. 1 is called gscroll and the other is called sensorscroll. gscroll is not free, but here is the link for sensor scroll: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=466377
It does shut down on random, but allows you to scroll in manilla (fav contacts, programs, text message etc)
Is there a way to set Dolphin HD as the default web browser and use the tray icon to access it?
Thanks
Yez. You can download an application called Launcher Pro. It allows you to customize the dock, etc. It's free, and available on the Market.

The tray icons (aside from the app drawer shortcut) are all customizable. Enter the app drawer (not the home screen), hit the menu button, then hit edit. It may ask you to switch to the customizable grid. Go ahead and do it if it asks, you can change back later (this is a bug in touchwiz). At this point you can drag icons into and out of the tray area. Hit the back button to lock them in place. If you had to change from an alphabetical arrangement in the app drawer to customizable grid, you can change back by hitting menu, view type, and choosing whatever style you wish.
As for the default browser, just hit "remember my selection" whenever it prompts you to choose one, and choose Dolphin HD. You can clear any default app settings by going into the "settings" app, hitting "applications", "manage applications", and selecting the application that is currently set at the default app for a specific task. In the list of settings there will be a "launch by default" section with an option to clear it as default.
That works. I didn't know about that trick of going to Edit under the application list page and rearranging the dock.

Hi
Just go into Settings -> Apps and find the app which is currently the default. Click on it, and in that screen you will see a button for "Clear Defaults". Nowm, the next time you use an app in that class, you will get the pop-up again asking you which you want to use.
Hope this helps.

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.
Hello guys,
I recently got a note 4 from my brother. I switch from a apple 4s to note 4. I really like the different customization that android allows. I download the themer app. I really like how themer allow me to set different themes. One thing I don't understand is when I first set it to another theme, whenever I click on the message icon it gives me the option to choose between the different messaging apps. however, after I click on one of them it set as default messaging app. Now whenever I click on the messaging icon it just pop up that default messaing app, it no longer gav eme the option to choose between different messenger. I have to manually go look at the other messaging app.
The choice is disappearing because you're setting a default for it to choose every time you press the button.
Settings > Apps > Messaging app you chose as default > Clear Defaults
Then when choosing each app from the messaging button only press 'Just Once' this way it should ask you which app every time!
Hope it helps.

Hey Araytha, I didn't choose it as my default. It just pop up the different options the first time and I just click on one. From then on it just set that one as default. It doesn't give me the option for "Just once." Where do I go to do that.
