Hello,
i use a Samsung Phone. On this Phone, there is a Build-In Browser called "Internet". If i im right, it is a Browser based on Chromium 44. There are some features i like really much on this browser, others are not. So i wonder, if it is possible to combine this features, with some features of Chromium/Chrome to make a Custom Chromium / Chrome Browser? Mostly there are 2 features in Samsungs Browser, i wish to have in such a Custom Chromium: The Use of Firefox Account, to sync Firefox Bookmarks and Tabs also to Chromium on Android and the Fingerprint Sensor, to save Logins to Websites. Is there a way to do this and what do i need? Or is there such a Custom Chromium APK available?
I think you'll need the build-in browser's source
Do you have any idea, where i could get this Sources?

As the title says, I am interested in a browser with an ad blocker integrated, not some "system wide" app like Adaway or AdClear.
I know AdBlock Browser exists, but it's based on Firefox for Android, which isn't the fastest browser on the block.
So, are there any browsers that are based on Chrome or Chromium for Android that have an integrated ad blocker?
If you have a Samsung, you can download their v4 stock browser and get a adblocker like Adblock fast which will only block ads on that browser, not system wide.
how about #NoChromo ?

I am now maintaining Bromite (which was based on latest available patch of NoChromo):

UPDATE: I found Brave Browser which is chrome with an adblocker, but doesn't have tab sync among different devices. Any browsers out there with adblocking and tab sync?
Try Opera Browser. Has an ad blocker and tab sync.
Hi..
im so curious about this, what is the difference between:
1. AOSP Webview and Google Webview?
2. What are the advantages of them?
3. Which one is better (or suggest) to using in custom roms nougat?
i noticed, mostly all custom roms preinstalled with AOSP webview (as you can see it in dev. options on "webview implementation".) but once we donloaded google/android system webview in playstore it automatically replaced the AOSP webview with Google one. and theres no option to switch or choose between them.
4. does the Dev's or AOSP webview will always be updated?
(since google webview always does within playstore)
If anyone have ideas about them, a bit of explanations which one should i pick on custom rom, i would be much appreciated, and im sure people would like to know also, thanks a lot!
It honestly depends on the developers to update the WebView implementation themselves. The difference comes in that ROMs ship Chromiums implementation instead of Chromes meaning that we lack the proprietary stuff shipped in Google's standard WebView. You will also notice that Chrome can provide WebView features too. Often Canary is the best route to take on this as it provides the latest implementation of WebView, and in my experience, has been more than stable (WebView at least, the browser isn't excactly a joy)
I've found Google Webview to be more stable than some ROM's builds of AOSP Webview. If you notice apps using that little web browser within apps crashing more often than normal switch it.
I prefer the Android Web Viewer because its less invasive. MHO They may crash more because of google play's aggressiveness as an intrusive APP
I want to use a Open Source browser with built in dark theme, adblocker and various privacy settings, is fast and get's updated regulary. I've used many alternatives over the years here on XDA, Lightning Browser, Pyrope, and more but they all seem to have been discontinued and not being updated. What is the browser you guys use today and why? I can't find any alternatives here in the forum, more or less everyone is outdated.
Not sure if this is the right forum.
I'm looking for recommendations for a lightweight k low memory) Android chrome alternative. Ideally I'd like to link to Google so I can access recent tabs from other devices, my bookmarks, passwords, history. Those are pretty much the only features I need other than the browser itself.
Hi all. I want to use the DuckDuckGo browser, but apparently it doesn't have a built in adblocker. At least none that I could find. I need my browser to be able to block ads, while also being a privacy focused browser that blocks all the companies from spying and whatnot.
So should I switch to Bromite instead? It comes with an ad blocker already installed, and it's supposed to be privacy focused. But it seems to be absent from Fdroid, whereas DuckDuckGo is still there. Thanks!
Bromite
Bromite is a Chromium fork with ad blocking and enhanced privacy; take back your browser
www.bromite.org
Yeah go with Bromite imo.
They have GitHub here it is https://github.com/bromite/bromite
There's also ungoogled chromium as a secondary, which you can use extensions with, check that out as well.
Jfyi DDG has a few decent browser extensions iv used before, mostly on desktop though.
Good luck
For some reason that won't install. I put the APK on my phone, but it says "Installing" then "Software not installed". The only requirement that I can see is that you need to be using later than 5.0 android.
