browser.apk from Nexus S???? - Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps

Hi guys!
Is it possible to use the browser from gingerbread/nexus s on our galaxy s phones? I remember we used the one from galaxy tab with great success
In videos the Nexus S browser looks far superior
If anybody has or know where i can get the "browser.apk" from the Nexus S I would be happy to test it
Provide and I will serve!

You can have it, but it's not deodexed.

Is it possible to deodex it? I'm running Docs rom right now
If its possible to get it it running, it would be a huge + for the browsing experience.
But then again, there could be some major compatibility issues sinces its from gingerbread.. or maybe not!

The nexus s browser isn't gpu accelerated, the jpx one is just so you know, its much faster.

JPX/JPU browser
Does anyone finds the browser experience just awfull in both firmwares?
The best browser I have tested was probably the one that came with the 1st or 2nd froyo firmware (dont remember)
It was fast, smooth just perfect, this one does strange things like on zooming in or out the page disapears and is replaced with squares and scroling the page gets distorced...
Any ideias how to solve this or is it just me?

Yeah, its bug with 3D acceleration.

Maybe a little bit offtopic.
Is scrolling in this page, http://powerampapp.com/features/ , completely smooth? On my device (JPX Doc) I get enormous lags. The browser hangs at the images.
Am I the only one?

Hmm very weird.. I cleanly installed Doc's ROM and I tested the page without any crap on my phone.. Still hangs at the images...

There you go

I have lag too... I noticed before in other webpages but thought was a site issue... I'm on sconcau extreme 2.0 rom (js5 based)

Galaxy s is the only phone with a gpu accelerated browser out there... why would you want to replace that? Use an android 2.2.1 firmware

[Q] Dell Streak Stage UI

Anybody porting it to the Incredible? Perhaps IncDoes?
He already did, just have to look past xda. Check his twitter it has a link.

The Dell Streak is receiving its Android 2.2 update sometime soon. The UI is called Stage. It looks similar to Sense IMHO. Check Engadget, there is a post about it. Someone has already ported it to the EVO.
Mehhh....Dell's Stage UI is okay. Nothing special. I flashed it on the inc but think sense especially the new sense in the z port is significantly better and much more refined.

I would definitely agree. I love the new sense. I was running that up until recently. I could be mistaken, but didn't ID say that in the coming release, the camera would be fixed? I think I saw something about it on his Twitter. Not sure. That is the only thing keeping me away full-time. Went back to SkyRaider for the time being. Missed my cam too much. haha.

Yup. The cam is the only thing that even makes me look at other ROMs - apparently its not too far away. I do follow him on twitter and hv noticed some chatter about cam but not sure how close we are to getting it.

couldn't make a call after flashing this from Incdoes, says the app is not installed... also, I cannot uninstall the dell stage now...
So this is a full Rom? Full wipe to flash?

No, it's basically a different launcher, you can flash it over any rom without any wiping.

What would happen if I flash this? Does it really break the phone/dialer.apk? I would love to try this, but not screw up my rom. I've been having trouble lately and just got everything working again.

Its just a launcher plus widget pack. To uninstall just flash the rom back on after wiping cache bit don't do data wipe.

Didn't break anything for me. Its like having sense plus launcher pro running simultaneously... Just press the home key to get the sense or stage ui choices and choose sense. Uninstall as described above.

No one "ported it." It's just a launcher. It works fine.
Known issues:
-Music widget doesn't work with HTC Music
-Email widget doesn't work with HTC Email
-Gallery widget doesn't work with HTC Gallery.

The launcher for this rom is sweet. I did get some fc's when I removed the picture and video widget from the homescreen. I simply cleared the launcher data and its all fine. Besides that everything works perfectly.

This is just Miren Browser!!
Did you try it?
I have never used miren browser.
But why would someone go to such lengths to fake a browser?
In settings - about, it says chrome version the modded by an xda member, so I thought it was real.
Are you sure? If so I'll change the post.

[Q/REQUEST] AOSP Browser on galaxy s3 mini?

Hi. I was wondering if there's a way to get AOSP interner browser on the galaxy s3 mini, since chrome is such a huge resource hog and other alternatives don't go to well with the jellybean vanilla look im going for. Ive found some ways to get it on the nexus and other phones but they dont work on the s3 mini. So does anyone know a way to do it?
thanks.
just use boat browser or his small brother boat browser mini.
works great and fast.
Edit: i tested Maxthon and - it´s much better than boat ...
HTH

Any compatible browser.apk for Android 4.4?

As above. Chrome is terrible.
Android 4.4's WebView component is Chronium, which is almost the same as Chrome.
Browser.apk uses WebView.
You can try other WebView browsers in the Play Store such as Naked Browser and it will also have terrible rendering and scrolling speed.
Sorry, I actually mean the AOSP browser. Will the 4.3 apk work? Has anyone tried?
The 4.3 one won't work, tried it on the n5 port a while back

Just extract it from a CM11 rom.
Try this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2510676&page=2
Works like a charm for me. I must say that I truly hate Chrome. I mean sure, it has some cool features but It's the most laggy and choppy browser I've ever used! Pinch to zoom and scrolling is a pure nightmare. There was a time it looked like it was getting better, but then again 3 last updates just made it worse.

That one still has issues. I think we may have to wait for 4.4 to get an update and be pushed out to AOSP.
Yeah, I've just noticed that address field doesn't disappear as it's supposed to. Anyway, I am gonna have to stick with that until it gets updated. Cannot stand laggy browsers

reboot and good to go
Thanks but it's still the same, all browsers become chrome. Aosp browser just doesn't work when signed in on xda.. Just jumps about.
It's a great step forward typing this in giant text in chrome that goes off the screen edge of the screen still. Gonna have to go back to 4.3 as 99%of my use on this phone is browsing the internet, and I can't handle this.
