firefox beta4

Where can I get this for my gtab? I don't see it in the market.

It won't be in the Market for a long time.
Side load it from this page:

Beta05pre is the current version. I like it quite a lot so far.

It was in the market for me this morning. I am running Vegan 5.1. I am actually running the Pre beta 5 from the website though.

Note that the link is to the Nightly builds. Don't be surprised if you get an update notice immediately.
I'd recommend adding a shortcut to your GTab desktop for that link or use DropBox and a computer to download and sync it with your tablet instead of using the updater, as I've been unable to get that working properly.

I found it in the market yesterday. Seems pretty slow, and I haven't found a way to keep it from using mobile sites. Most browsers have a way to change the user agent. Haven't found it.

The version in the market is older and much slower. The version in that link has many speed improvements.
There is an add on that well let you spoof the browser also.
I am posting from it right now in fact.

Im using the nightly build, everything is fast. The sync feature is nice too.
Only bad thing is you can't tell it your using a tablet, so it chooses the mobile site a lot instead of the full sites.

I've had good luck with the beta FireFox provided by the link. Flash does not work though. The flash player (beta) only seems to work with the stock web browser. Everything else (FF,Opera,Dolphin) crash or do not display correctly. It's not really smooth in restarting, it has to force close if it's been open for some reason. I have not found a way of setting the default to open with other browsers installed. A pop-up with all installed keeps coming up to open. Default browser settings are grayed out in the control panel.

[Q] Firefox 4

Anyone have a working firefox apk for autonooter. I tried to install an apk i found but it didn't install and actually created an issue with my Application pop up screen.

not answering to your question but i tryed FF4 on nookie froyo and it's not very good.. Keep Opera mobile if you can use it, or Miren browser if opera is not 2.1 compatible..

I just want to install it to hopefully fix the bug that is occuring when I scroll on the app screen. It kicks me out everytime to home.

I found Firefox 4 mobile to be very buggy still. The sync doesn't really work, you can't get onto sites with a username and password, and it's slow. They did do an update in the last few days though, so maybe things got a bit better.

I've been messing around with it, firefox 4, for a couple hours today. I've had no issues with the sync option, I actually really like it. being able to sync my laptop's tabs to the nook is a worthwhile feature IMO. however, I really like dolphin HD. Enough so, that I doubt I'll switch.

Why haven't you tried the android market? They have a working one available, and yes opera seems better for the nook color!

[Q] Have internet - but can't browse...

Hi guys,
Hope someone can assist. I have a stock Tab, and entered all the suggested APN settings. I now have 3G (Can text, call, recieve calls etc...), and I can use internet apps, such as Facebook, Market etc. However, using the stock internet browser ... nothing. Web page cannot be displayed. I can't browse. When I get into Wifi connectivity, then it all works fine...
So, under 3G, I have internet, but can't browse.
I have upgraded to Gingerbread, and still have the same issues. Any ideas what can just block browsing, but allow everything else? The only common things I guess, is my APN settings... the device it's self ... and my network.
I'm in Australia, using TPG as my provider..

try grabbing another browser in the market like opera mini which is amazing. If that solves the problem then its something to do with the installation of the UI or Android on your device. Either restore to factory settings. If neither work you may have a port issue on your APN settings as different internet services work differently. So triple check with your carrier.
But if Opera or another browser works then I would suggest restore factory settings and if they don't work with stock browser then call Sammy and they will do a full reset on the device and or replace it. They are not that bad at doing this.
Hope this helps.

dolphin hd is better browser... just my suggestion.

Love with opera that it has link and my home screens and bookmarks all sync to my phone and tab.
That for me is reason enough .. But Di like dolphin too >:~)

Miren and opera are definitely the best, doplin just seems to bloated and fat for my liking

No one uses Firefox??

Tried ff some nice features but bloated to hell and buggy
Maybe whenbits bit more stable will give it a run

new google webpage causes cascade of force closes?

anybody else experiencing random FCs when visiting google.com or googling anything? It started happening RIGHt when the website changed and other coworkers that have this phone said the same thing....im suprised nobody has mentioned this yet
im on CM7.1

Just tried going to google.com and doing a search in both the stock browser and Miren browser and it worked fine

tried stock and dolphin mini and works fine.

What browser are you using? I use Dolphin HD and have had no issues lately.

doesnt dolphin use the same API as the stock android browser? I used firefox and browser....browser tries, hangs and then force closes....firefox just force closes as soon as i go to google.com
its weird.

I have never had that problem on either my CM7 captivate or my 2.3.3 cog5b3 phone. Both I am using Dolphin HD and both have Google.com setup as my homepage. So no issues here.
Also I just tried it via the stock browser and it also has Google.com as the homepage and it worked too. Try going into settings, applications, find the browser and clear the data for it and see if that helps.

[Q] Browser not working on 3G, but FB/Market/Other work

I recently installed MIUI v 1.9.30, and despite my previous experiences with MIUI I really like this one, despite one thing.
I've found that while on 3G (Bell Mobility Canada), I can download from the Market and browse Facebook, but I cannot use the browser (Charming Browser). When attempting to load Google, for example, the loading bar will progress about 10% and then stop there.....
Funny thing is, when using Dolphin Browser the same thing occurs, and it gives a webpage cannot be displayed error. I've tried looking in both browser settings but I can't figure it out, because they work fine on WIFI.
Has anyone experienced anything like this?

Clear cookies and other browsing history and then retry bud

Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately it didn't help =/
I went as fat as trying a factory reset and the problem still occurred. I posted asking for help on the miui website but haven't gotten any response yet.
