I have been wanting to run a vanilla rom, but miss the pinch zoom function of my sense rom. When I enlarge the page it will realign the text so it is all within the window. Any way of getting this with vanilla?
Its usually in settings somewhere

What rom have you tried where it did not resize your internet browser? I am no expert but I've used at least six different rom's and never had an issue with my browser resizing. Also, with each rom that I have flashed I used Dolphin HD and my text realigns quite fine. I'm currently running Skyraider Athena 1.2 and browser resizing works.

I read somewhere yesterday that the stock browser in 2.2 (Froyo) was almost as fast as the iOS Safari, but I had always used Dolphin on my EVO and Hero before that.
Well, I tried the stock browser yesterday( I'm using the latest Cyanogen Mod) and surely that thing is blazin! So much so that I made it my default browser.
Has anyone else tried the stock browser on Froyo? What did you think?
I love the stock browser in Froyo on CM6 I havent even bothered trying another one.
The stock browser in Froyo is 10.1 flash compatible out the box, correct?
Stock froyo is far, far faster than Dolphin Browser, as much as I love the additional features.
how many tabs are you allowed to have open?

No you have to download the flash plugin

It scored higher on the Acid3 test if I recall correctly and was virtually identical in speed to the iOS browser

This is the only reason I use dolphin, cause allowing only 3 tabs in the sense browser is way retarded.
Do you mean the sense froyo browser or just the stock froyo browser?

stock froyo
stock browser on CM6 is good. much faster than stock sense browser, BUT the scrolling is laggy. swipe down, short time passes, then it scrolls on screen. there's a delay between the swipe and the actual scrolling.

I've never had that problem with mine. Did you try setting plugins to "on-demand"? That reaaaally helps out with browser speed.
Hi everyone,
I don't know if it's just me, but i've noticed that when browsing the internet, in froyo roms scrolling, and pinch-zooming is quite choppy and not smooth at all ocmpared to sense roms.
Can something be done about it? or is it to do with the libraries and drivers used in these froyo roms?
well i won't my experience with froyo browsers was bad, but i can say nothing beats sense.. i'm using fallah rom (legend based sense rom), and browsing is a treat, add to that the quality video and pics this rom gives, it just fantastic.
I have to say that i havent got any problem with smoothness, but if u want, u can try out another browsers, like Miren Browser
i tried that and that is much more smoother than the stock one, but luckily i havent got any problem with the stock.
Smooth scrolling is in Sense roms. In non-Sense roms like CM is non-smooth scrolling
same here....i used tegro for a while with launcher pro only for the sense browser. i wonder why ....ui of cm is really fast...but browser ugly slow...
+1 here
any Froyo ROM I have used, the browser is very choppy and not smooth like Sense..
adding the flash (in)capability to that is the main reason I switched back to 2.1 sense roms..

Yep, flash incapability sucks, flash was one of the main reasons i bought a hero instead of a iphone.
Ok so I don't know what the hell is going on but for some reason the Rosie app drawer from any sense GB Rom is laggy. There is always some sort of lag, I don't know if its just me or other people are experiencing it. The super smooth homescreen scrolling was made but is the app drawer posible to be optimised?
If you are willing to change the rom then may i suggest getting the rcmix3d runny 3.1 rom so far the the best rom i have tried it has no lags or freezes and the battery life is also excellent.
That's because of the crappy coded sense apps. every single one of them is laggy. not much you can do about. OC helps a little but it will be still laggy.

I was running Runny 3.1 the other day, I flash all sorts of Sense roms and the only thing I have problems with is the app drawer. It's not exactly lag, just a lower FPS than a lot of other UI elements such as the homescreen.

This is about the app drawer. Not the homescreen itself.

Thanks, but I'm already running this. As Flussen said this is about the app drawer. Is anyone else having this issue? It's easily seen when one of the unlimited scrolling mods are applied.
Do you mean the lag when you touch the ▩ to open the app drawer?
I have the same problem, it's not much, maybe 1/4 to 1/2 of a second but it's annoying. I don't like the iPhone but you have to admit everything's super smooth there. Unlike my DHD on Sense 3. It feels like a slightly underperforming PC.
I tried both the Supercharger and Smooth Sense 3 but I'm not sure there is any effect at all.
And definitely nothing about the app drawer lagging.
I don't know why only some people report this, either most people don't care/notice or it really only happens on some phones. That'd be strange though. Has anyone tried the official HTC Sense 3 ROM, does the problem occur there as well?
I'm thinking about downgrading to Sense 2, there isn't much I'd miss from 3 besides the lock screen and that can be patched into Sense 2.
Is there an easy way to flash any Sense 3 ROM with Sense 2? Maybe just by replacing the rosie apk?
Ok, so I've tried a couple sense roms on my g2 and run into a constant issue. Whenever I use the browser and switch to different app the browser closes all the windows except the last page I was on. Is this normal or is there a setting to keep all the windows open?

Thats because sense ROMs lack multitasking, multitasking uses RAM, and sense ROMs eats RAM so it eats multitasking... The only way to solve it is to make a SWAP partition on you sdcard... This makes a part of your sdcard working as RAM... Thus enabling multitasking (i made it today, works great)

I think Sense browser just discards all tabs by default, even on Sense 2.1 and 100mb+ free RAM.

maybe... but i remember when i had stock unrooted... i would go to an app... when reverting back to the browser, the tabs reload themselves...
i could be wrong tho

I was wondering if this happened in Virtuous Sense for you.

Riro, you really need to actually judge sense based off Sense 2.1 or Virtuous Sense. Sense 3.0 or 3.5 was never meant to be run on the g2/dz.
It's like running a computer that runs ok on windows xp but does not meet the requirement for windows 7. even if you get windows 7 on it, you wont get the experience you would have if your machine meets that spec.
I have over 100mb of ram constantly on virtuous sense and that's the standard that you need to base it off, not sense 3 or 3.5.

oops... i should have said, "sense 3.x lacks multitasking while running on our device"
EDIT: ok, i'm on virtuous sense 2, and i'm switching between the stock browser, and tapatalk... And the windows doesn't dissappear... Although i applied the v6 supercharger script... But i don't think it matters much... Maybe after partitioning the sdcard, it would solve the OP's problem... But i'm clean

When I was on GB ROMS:
- I always had the ability of Text-Zoom Reflow
- I could also double tap and the text would fit the screen
I was using the Stock Browser.
I forgot if reflow worked with Dolphin HD installed on GB ROMs.
I installed ICS FC07, as well as FC14:
- I no longer had reflow capability
- still had double tap text fit to screen capability
I flashed back to GB EL29 to get GPS back and:
- I had reflow once again using the stock browser. I didn't try Dolphin HD.
I flashed back to ICS FC07:
- No reflow with Stock Browser
- No reflow with Dolphin HD browser
I installed Opera Mobile Web Browser 12.0.1 and once again have:
- Touch-Zoom reflow
- and double tap to fit screen, which I always had.
It appears that Reflow does not work using Dolphin HD when on ICS ROMs
The above has been my experience, and as always ymmv, as individual
E4GT's work differently, even under the same conditions re: app, modem, kernel, etc. installs
Hoefully this will help someone out, as it took me a while to figure it out
Text-reflow also does not work for me in MIJJz BLEND ICS rom. I am using the stock browser. Any ideas?
