Its buggy on doughnut, but the market post says thats being worked on.
Fix that and add a couple of things from Loccys build (hide notification and multi-touch) and i would switch

Smooth on my side (cm 4.1.999), great browser. Especially the gesture recognition! And the tabs ... wow
But missing MT!

I can't figure out how to work the zoom on this otherwise amazing browser. Hints anyone?

alexnick: Long press on the page itself, you'll get something similar to Steel browser ^^, with the zoom in and out buttons.

I like how it caches pages and allows you freely move among pages without having to reload them when opening the next window/tab, unlike the default browser. IMO this is really the better browser for a G1 due to the lower memory capacity than the other newer android phones. Unless of course you are rooted, then either way it is still a great browser. I have uninstalled steel because I no longer need it. RSS ability makes this a killer app.
Does anyone know if Mozilla Firefox will be releasing web browser for android?

wow...with integrated GBookmarks and GTasks!
Really a cool app.

The best "aftermarket" browser yet...great work!

Hide notification is an option when pressing the menu button - which I LOVE because it is easy to turn on/off!
I really LIKE this browser - much faster on my phone the Loccy's/Stock!

Yeah he added full screen with the latest build.
I must admit I have switched from Loccys superb browser to this, just due to the fact it has full screen. I love Loccys build but that extra little bit at the top just makes the difference to me (I know its a small difference, but there you go)
Not convinced on the gestures, but you cat have everything.

amazing browser bro! Great job!

just downloaded latest version with lots of new features and all i can say is WOW

I just tried installing this from the market, and it completely messed up my phone. It started by forcing my phone to reboot before it could install all the way. It then continued to force close whenever I tried to open it. Then my stock browser wouldn't open without a fc. Then core processes started force closing every ten seconds, preventing me from obtaining any information from log collector. I've uninstalled and rebooted to try and fix the issue, but none of it changes.
I also noticed that I can't access some of my apps anymore after trying to install this. I haven't seen anyone else leaving comments about this issue, what is wrong with my phone? I'd really like to try this browser, especially for the supposed multitouch support for cyanogenmod roms. Can everyone else install and use the Dolphin browser just fine?

I actually did do that sometime in between reboots, without knowing what it actually does. I didn't notice any change though. I tried repairing the ext filesystem, then fix apk uid mismatches, then updated to the most recent CM rom and fixed permissions.
My phone still refuses to run the app. I don't feel like formatting just to have this browser, but I don't want to have this problem for other apps in the future... so I'm going to format anyway.

I'm running C< 4.2.3.1 and I just installed this from the market and it would not open at all, it kept force closing, it also caused the normal browser to force close, even after uninstalling the browser would crash, things didn't go back to normal until I rebooted

Ah! So I am not alone! Yeah... still sucks though. Have you noticed any apps in the downloads section in the market being listed as "installed" but not being able to open, install, or uninstall?

one word: perfect.
although i gotta admit that i am really looking forward to see other rendering engines (fennec, opera) ported to android

Well
I think Chrome even if it´s not a beta anymore, it´s a very young browser, fast in fact but very limitated in other functions, maybe in a couple of years is going to be a great option, but by now I´ll stick to the majestic Opera!
nice browser ... shame its not on mac yet
Oh well,. yeah,. thanks for the info guys!!,. i am downloading now,. hehe,. last time i download before i format my PC, it say Google Chrome BETA,.
Some issues I run into (I've used it since day one of it's release to the public):
Flash videos work off and on. This seems to be consistent, I will go to play a youtube video and will need to restart the browser because the audio or video will not play.
Spellcheck sucks.
Very few add on's. Add on's are what make firefox so great.
Some pages just do not interact well with Chrome. If you go to a lot of message boards you know what I mean.
Highlighting anything is a PIA. Many times you will will try to highlight one individual word and end up with long blank fields. When you copy and paste it then just comes up blank with the whole field minus the word...WTF??
Other then those few things it's a great browser and I use it full time for work and play.
Ive got a portable version if anyone is interested and doesnt want to actually install it.
Send me a pm if you fancy it
I.M.O not enough to it yet, security wise i can beef up Firefox, don't like Google policies & i need a browser that works efectively on UMPC so Firefox 3 it is...
One of co workers installed chrome on my computer at work so I gave it a try. I started using it more and more since it starts up in half the time IE, or Firefox does. Since then I've been using it ever since. I don't need the fancy plug-ins from firefox and IE just plain sucks. Easy choice IMO.
Also its no longer in beta.
I would recommend switching to "SRWare Iron" as it is Chrome without all the Spyware Crap that Google put into the Browser (Unique ID, constantly running updater and stuff like that).
It is based on Chromium, which is the base for Google Chrome.
It even looks and handles the same as Chrome & Chromium...
I used Chrome since the beta because I preferred the look of it.
Thanks to this thread - I'm now using SRWare Iron which I'll keep an eye on too..
Cheers.

Oh, thankyou, so now i am not wrong if google chrome ever have a beta version,. lol
After I using Iron for a week I switched back to chrome. Spellcheck doesn't work, and its slower to load pages. The privacy issue isn't a problem because there are programs which remove your unique ID and you can simply disable sending google your browsing information in the options menu. The only thing that Iron has going for it over Chrome is a better looking icon.
Chrome Rocks!
I to have been using google chrome since the earlly beta.
to clear things up, There are two version available. Stable releases and a "developer" version (which is like a beta version.)
Personally i love the broswer for its speed but like already mentioned, it doesn't like all websites. I can't stand IE so i keep firefox around incase i have problems. Things are getting beter all the time for chrome though (for example it used to be almost useless for facebook and now its basically fully compatible) I'm proud to say its my default browser
This became a POLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
See the top if you know any other tell me! to include it!
Ok, voted already,.
What da...????
Who includes the Internet explorer 8 beta that dont includes the link to the download?
Come on guys... share it share it share it....!

I got tired of running market enabler after every boot This build sets phone to US T-Mobile - you'll see all apps (including pay) for this resolution.
Nice work buddy.
PS. Are you from Canada? Maybe even Toronto?
The reason I ask is I see "The Hip" playing and I know they are big there. Having lived there for 21 years .

Vancouver! nice. I'm in Victoria. Love The Hip.
Reuploaded and tested base.
i'm not sure I believe that market enabler actually does anything to the missing market apps for donut and above anymore. why?
1. after booting 320x480, getting full market, then going to 240x320 and using market enabler religiously, after 4-5 days my market still reverts back to having missing apps.
2. after booting a data.img at 240x320, I ran market enabler before entering my google account stuff. missing market apps still missing (paid apps yes, but no pandora, no google listen, no pdanet, no weather channel etc etc).
but i'm willing to be a believer. i'm going to fire this up in 240x320 with a brand spanking new data file and see what rolls. I think we need to find a way to fake resolution to google to avoid missing apps, as the market enabler/t-mobile footprint thing seems to only work for paid apps. waiting to stand corrected though . . . will post back.

This build won't show you the apps for different resolutions - just gives you the full market (as market enabler would) for 320 x 240; I'll have to correct the wording to avoid confusion.

love the build, fast as usual. I see you are feeling lcd.density of 113, I like it. love the animations as well. yeah, to me "full market" means everything - only way to get that, it seems, is booting a fresh data file at 320x480. I should work on a fix for that . . .
absolutely love it! same stable build as last time, updated. With bluetooth and fully functional gps, there is really not much more that I could ask for! For my phone and my use, this build is far and away the fastest out there, very smooth. Everything just fits right on the screen too. Nothing fancy but 100% usable.
Love that you have paid apps enabled by default too.
Tatnai, you figure out how to fix the market / resolution issue and I don't think there is a single thing left we can complain about...as small of an annoyance as it is.
Thanks Plemen! great work as usual
i´ve installed this version to my polaris and it runs very nice and fast. thanks!
just a few things i noticed:
- data connection works
- camera works
- wifi doesn´t work
- market doesn´t work (always getting a server error message)
- coundn´t test bluetooth yet
wifi not working is a big issue for me since i don´t have a data-plan. hope this gets fixed in the future

I'm not sure what enabling wifi for the polaris entails - I only have a vogue but if somebody sends me the info I'll add an update and add it to the first post.

getting that too. going to try clearing my dalvik cache again and re-installing, I wonder if the new footprint has anything to do with it? if what I'm doing now doesn't work, I may try replacing the build.prop with another footprint, will post back.
EDIT 1: ok, i pulled myns build.prop and dumped it in, google voice works again. I don't know if it is the carrier settings (could be) or maybe the lcd.density (don't think so, unlikely but I guess possible; I know I've used 113 before and I don't recall it causing a problem). I've got to go to bed (my wife's about to kill me) so I can't test anymore. Someone should try google voice with myns build.prop changed to 113, and with plemen's changed to 110. I'll assume that plemen's is going to still force close at 110 cause I think it may be the carrier settings. then we'll need to figure out which setting in particular.

Official AIM for Android released

The official AIM app for Android has been released. I've used eBuddy on various platforms for years, but I'm checking out this new app now.
http://www.cyrket.com/p/android/com.aol.mobile.aim
all the comments say its really buggy, ill wait after some updates, but yea its about time for an official AIM app.

I used this for almost 3 days now. It's the best AIM app for Android by far, but it drains the battery fast. Besides that, it's great.
It seems a little laggy and definitely uses more memory/system resources than eBuddy. I'm leaving it installed, but I'll be sticking with eBuddy for daily IM usage.
It uses a lot of battery, and signs out when the phone goes to sleep. I constantly find myself having to re-login.

It keeps me logged in 24/7 (unless I'm on the phone and I lose 3g connectivity, but then it would log me back in when I get off the phone and regain internet connection), but then again, I am running 96mb swap.
keeps me logged in...I have it excluded with Advanced task manager...then again, I haven't put the phone down since I installed it...lol...
but so far the best AIM app...doesn't use the dictionary unfortunately so typing can get annoying, not sure if that's a KingKlick Eclair rom issue or the app itself...but all in all 4/5 is def a proper rating...could easily be 5/5 if I could remove the damn livestream and its tabs completely..not a lot of settings though.
I keep it excluded aswell in Advanced Task Manager, and I've been using it all day, and it's gone out on me multiple times, and I spent a good 6 hours with full 3g coverage, so I know it wasn't a matter of losing data. Even or wifi I lose it, and I have wifi lock on aswell to keep it from disabling while going to sleed/stand by. And I have a 128mb swap, not sure what that would have to do with it logging on or off...
I've been using HiAIM beta ever since I got my phone. It doesn't disconnect me unless I'm on the phone (which is normal). I like the interface a lot more than anything else I have used (I turn off bubble-style chat).
nice! great that aim finall released for android. i am currently using helloIM which is great and i think better at this point than this one. but helloIM is no longer supported by its devs i think, so i have a felling official AIM will be the one to use for the future as they update it more.
I heard on the news that Facebook chat will be available through 3rd party IM apps like yahoo messenger and AIM.....can anyone confirm this?

It looks nice, however it is a mega battery drainer, my phone also heats up quite a bit but that may be because I'm listening to music at the same time. Does anyone know if messages sent through this application to cellphones count as messages or date?
[AIM can also send text messages, im wondering if they count as texts or not]

It looks almost identical to Community Hero Mix, but slightly different (especially the battery indicator).
iVisionX01, how did you get your data indicator to display "H" instead of "3G"? Or is that included with the ROM?
My apologies gentlemen I have a Nexus One. I'm using CyanogenMOD 5.0 w/ the Smooth Black Bar Theme.
Interesting, I didn't know that the H was included with CM5. I'm requesting that he also make that change for the next release of CM4.

Help! 4.2 update erased my bookmarks!

All of my bookmarks have been erased by the 4.2 update! Is there anything I can do to get them back? I am talking about the local bookmarks.
Actually, the update erased everything related to my browser: bookmarks, saved passwords, search options etc.
Chrome Browser?
Did you get OTA update or did you do something to get it?
Stock browser. OTA, just popped out of nowhere (didn't even know 4.2 was out until it showed) and I thought "why not"? Well that answers why not. I do have a backup of the bookmarks but it's over 2 months old and many are missing, probably lost forever unless someone here has any ideas on how to get them back. The missing bookmarks were the result of many hours of web searches I did at some point researching a topic and I'd really hate to think of all that wasted time. I never imagined an update would erase my bookmarks, it never happened with previous ones.
(I could never figure in titanium backup how to do scheduled backups of the bookmarks only and nothing else)
If you visit each & every site that you had bookmarked you'll find that you can tap on the star in the address bar & bookmark them all over again.

Do you happen to have the same Book Marks on your Phone or maybe your Computer. Do you use Chrome Browser on your Computer... If not i recommend it. It as well other desktop / phone browsers will give you the option to sync them across devices.. I LOVE This feature.
Now as far it being a near end of earth catastrophe About loosing book marks. It has happened to me in the past. I just had to search for the sites i use again. I also found i had way more book mark sites then i actually use.
I think this is what the above comment meant about . Just go back to the sites and Re add them.. Some of the Inter-webs and company links are not so easy and i do feel for you for loosing them..
Good Luck.. Chrome will not get them back but could prevent this in the future..

Now as far it being a near end of earth catastrophe About loosing book marks. It has happened to me in the past. I just had to search for the sites i use again. I also found i had way more book mark sites then i actually use.
I think this is what the above comment meant about . Just go back to the sites and Re add them.. Some of the Inter-webs and company links are not so easy and i do feel for you for loosing them..
Good Luck.. Chrome will not get them back but could prevent this in the future..

I don't use chrome. I have tried hard to like it, and failed. It is counterintuitive for me.
Like I said, those bookmarks were the result of many hours of research (product availability for a narrow niche market, very hard to find). I didn't have them anywhere else. I guess I will have to waste more hours to find them again.
Anyway, the 4.2 update gets a big thumbs down from me.

For future reference, there are are apps in the play store that will back up your bookmarks.
I've lost plenty of bookmarks myself over the years. Until I started backing them up with
A third party app.

Like I said, I use Titanium Backup and it does a good job at it, but I haven't figured out how to make it regularly backup my bookmarks only. I don't want to do a full system backup on a daily basis. I backup the bookmarks manually, but I have to remember doing that. The last time I remembered was on Sept 29th.
Another app I tried, Bookmark Sort&Backup has the nasty habit of reversing the order of my bookmarks every time I start it. (yeah I know, just run it twice) It has no automation built in it either, so all operations have to be done manually. Comes down to memory again.
That would be something nice to see in titanium... The closest you can get is to schedule
A backup for modified data. But it backs up all modified data, not individual apps.
(Pro version)
(Edit) Just realized that TB does backup individual apps with modified
Data on a schedule... If you create a filter for just that app.
I use chrome and all my bookmarks are still there. However on one game it cleared my history of winning games. No big deal.

Question Delayed Typing After Update

Just accepted the latest update on my S21 Ultra and noticed straight away that there is a delay on typing. Usually if I open messaging app I can tap the text box and start typing instantly. Now there's a few seconds delay so it misses off the first word or so. It's very annoying.
Happens in any app eg Messages, WhatsApp etc.
Tried Gboard which is my usual but also tested and it's the same on Asking keyboard. It's driving me mad!

Clear system cache
Clearing cache hasn't worked. Genuinely think it's a bug with the latest update I got. Started after that and it's the only thing that's changed.

Don't see such a problem on my device...but I can't really relate to your problem literally. Do you have a video showing the lag?
It's not really obvious that I'm tapping but I press the buttons as soon as the keyboard appears.
That's horrific and it would drive me mad very quickly.
Feels like the keyboard is connecting to a service. Have you gone down the list of disabling all advanced features, like GIF/emoji integration, then enabling each one one at a time?

Try in safe mode.
Your phone is probably recalibrating. Suffer for another day or 2 and it will likely go away.
Really don't see it in my device. Have you tried another keyboard. I'm on SwiftKey and don't have this issue.

The Samsung keyboard is one of the best, so much so many prefer it. I've been using the same Samsung keyboard layout for almost 8 years. One of the few things Samsung hasn't screwed up, but they are on a roll
This delay glitch is unacceptable... drop the ball Sammy.
Am I missing an update or so? I don't see this delay...hmm

It may only adversely effect certain production batches. Update roulette...
It could well be due to messaging app iso the keyboard.
It seems the messaging app may be waiting for voice input.
See SS of OP's screen video, and the circled icon...

Good point. Intelligent phones aren't that intelligent and many of those features rely on internet connection to process the raw voice inputs. Not sure if this is one but it likely is.
I disable voice to text, always... and little Bixby too
I've factory reset. Gone through the pain of installing all my apps and it's still the same.
Very good points regarding services I think I'll try and disable anything voice related as I don't use that!
Ok disabled the voice stuff I could find and it's still doing it. Driving me friggin mad!!

Clear system cache. Hard reboot.
Device Care>Battery, make sure ALL power management is disabled, except display setting which should be optimized or higher.
If still doing it Device Care>memory, clear the cache, now use the keyboard and immediately go back to memory and see what was added. Those are potential seauspects.
I'll add to blackhawk's instructions - kill your data & wifi then reboot and try again (with the data & wifi still off). So often when a computer has these little lags, it's data connection related - like something is phoning home or phoning out. I'm getting that gut feeling with this one too.

Add a network reset to the list and a carrier network reset.
I never liked voice commands; when you're out of the streets, driving, walking, jogging, whatever... the phone needs to disappear.
It's a liability, not asset. You need to be paying attention to your surroundings not matter how boring or inconvenient it seems.
Bad things happen fast, you need to be ready... not jerking off with the phone.
Even when talking, you are being distracted. The man with no name knew that...
Check your Access point settings too.
On my AT&T NXTGENPHONE profile I found that instead of "hipri" (high priority) it had "fota" (Firmware Over-The-Air) which I don't want.
So I created a new profile and tested it. Instant download speed increase it seems... still testing.
APN type default,mms,supl,hipri
My original profile was set as IPv4/IPv6, which I used on my new profile instead of the AT&T suggested IPv4 only.
APN protocol IPv4
If you do this create a new profile with a different name so you can retain your original one too.
Don't forget to fill in any relevant spaces on the new and leave the blank ones blank unless you know better.
AT&T APN Info
For other carriers you'll need to up their APN specs.
