I'm not sure what its called but before Froyo rom while reading any type of text on forums I could zoom for bigger text and it would snap to fit the screen, but now it sort of does that but
It starts from the left edge of web page.
Is this on all Froyo, it does this with Ava V3 & Fresh 3.0 roms I've tried so far.

Do you use the stock browser, or a third party browser? I used to use Dolphin HD, but any 2.2 rom I flash I get that same problem with it. I'm using the default browser now, only because the re-texting (or whatever you want to call it) is quicker to re-text, more exact in its re-texting, and much smoother on pages with flash. I'm thinking Dolphin just needs to be updated.
Dolphin HD is the problem. Stock browser works ok.
Hey guys.
Just rooted and debranded my desire this week to finally be able to get some froyo onto my Desire. I love the new features, and the general speed, but the browser is a total letdown for me. It has been reported before numerous times on this forum, and i am experiencing the same laggy scrolling. I have Leedroid 1.8 right now which came with an adblocker, and ive got plugins set to "on demand". Still that doesnt really help the whole experience.
Now what i would love is to have the 2.1 browser back. I even want flash lite back instead of full flash. Hands down, it is laggy as hell, and i would only use it to show off to friends with iphones. Flash lite didnt work most of the time, but when it worked it did its job better than full flash, sad but true.
Now it all comes down to the question: Is there a 2.2 rom availible with the 2.1 browser? If not, is cooking a rom like that even possible?
Im not far from going back to 2.1, because the browser is of big importance to me. Thanks for any help.
Edit: Oh, and using a different browser is not an option for me. I just dont like the browsers availible on the market (Dolphin HD, Opera mini, Xscope, Skyfire...)
i dont know to be honest but you can download dolphin browser its better than stock anyway

posted this before the edit sorry
Since I don't have your browser problem on the OTA HTC 2.2 but the entire opposite experience, I'd say try a different ROM to compare. And try without moving any regular apps to SD and with. I'm starting to see a small trend where the SD card file reads are killing the CPU usage with too many loads from apps moved to the flash.
Trying to install 2.1 browser APK on mine reads "incompatible version".

Change the plugin option to 'on demand' and it fixes the laggy scrolling.

I can now get rid of my Dolphin browser.
I just rooted my phone today and now no idea what I am doing. I checked out the Cyanogen ROM and would like to get it on my phone, however I do not know where to get it or where to begin with this. I checked out a lot of the forums here to find a answer and google and was unsuccessful. I come to you for assistance in learning this process, in hopes to understand, learn and figure all this out!
My questions are : How do you install Roms? What is Rom Manager for and how do I get it working with my phone CORRECTLY? What else do I need to install and get on my phone to fiddle with Roms or any other cool stuff in the future?
I want to be able to have my phone setup to ultimately do anything that a rooted phone can do. Please help!
Ok...well..if you haven't already, hit the DEV section two doors down. Also one of the best pieces of advice I can give is to search out " qbking77" in there and on youtube. He is the hands down "King" at how to vids for not only this phone but many others. Just add "Epic4g" to any search with his handle and you're on your way!...ENJOY and see you on the darkside!!
ALL HAIL THE QBKING!!
well i figured out how to change the ROM's! i am curious what some good ROM's are. I tried out CM7 and i would rather not use it because of the nature of the no 4g and other things that dont work on it. If anyone knows of any good ones with a cool UI please let me know!
and yes i checked out qbking77 and hes is AMAZING!! his videos helped me figure out how to change the roms!
Syndicate frozen rom 1.2 with genocide 2.0 kernel. Flash the rom then the kernel.
All ROMs are good and all have different features. If you make a specific list of what you want maybe someone can help you. Otherwise go into Development and read the OP on each of the ROMs for what features they have. When you find one you like, then read the entire thread to see what kind of problems you can expect.
If u want clean stable rom go with bonsai 4.0.1 with the aio mod, if you would like it just let ne know on this thread and ill give u a link for it and a link for the specific all in one mod, it is a froyo rom but it is stable and mu favorite rom as I never have issues with it

Cm7 is da bomb diggity!

Both are in alpha and beta states [near perfect but cool enough to be daily drivers]
Run an acs if you're not ready to go off the chains!
I prefered stock just cause it runs hardcored but if you run it make sure you stay as close to stock as possible and just get updated kernels to stay afloat til you're really ready to backup and try others!

SFR 1.2 with Genocide 2.0 is good I used it for awhile until the 10/22 release of CM7 which I'm now using. I don't have 4g in my area so no loss there for me. Everything else I use my device for it works great with so I've not needed to go back to SFR.
would there be any specific reason why the battery seems to drain super fast with SRF 1.2 / Nuberl kernal?
Could be the kernel or some specific setting related to it. I'm not familiar with each kernel. So I'm going to make some guesses and say perhaps O/C overvolting, CPU governor not optimal choice, can't think of anything else from the kernel. If you switched ROMs you are probably going to want to fully charge and then boot into recovery and delete the battery stats or use battery calibrator (by marosige is the one I installed) to do it when the battery reaches 100%.
ok guys !!
share what rom are you using ?
and the specific reasons for it !
stock V11a rom - rooted
i am using it because it actually has decent battery life (unlike the v10 series) and because i am waiting for tuesday to put Cyano on it.
I would also like to see the different reasons for using particular roms, good thread idea
@ aaki_rocker what is your rom and why?
For me lol.. depend on what i work on.. right now i use cm-9-20120629-UNOFFICIAL-p930 (my compiled CM9 test build)
CM9 RC1. Running like gravy since it launched. Its fast, smooth, and offers pretty sweet battery life even without HONOs kernel. Oh, and many of the things they released a couple days ago at the Google IO conference work on ICS(google chrome for android is ICS+ only).
Just a few of the perks of running a CM9 rom.
im using hono! not with hono kernel since max keep goin down to 100mhz

Stock gingerbread ROM with HONO's kernel for me! CM9 just isn't as smooth for me, and while the ICS leak is as smooth (if not a smidge smoother than GB stock), the screen digitizer driver seems to not be perfectly calibrated (most noticeable and annoying when using swype or other "dragging/drawing" apps) on the ICS leak, AND it seems in ICS they screwed with the way zooming on images is handled.
1.) First, when web browsing, text doesn't auto align like it used to in GB, regardless of browser (with the exception of Opera, but I don't really like that browser very much)
2.) In email apps which DO allow pinch to zoom on emails with lots of images (such as touchdown and K-9), you can't seem to zoom out anymore in ICS when you could in gingerbread, so you're forced to have to slide around a ginormous email image to take a look at it rather than zoom out entirely and get an overview.
If anyone else knows of an email app that allows pinch to zoom to zoom OUT of a large email far enough to get a complete page overview in ICS, let me know. (I'm aware K-9 and touchdown still allow the zoom function, but they seem to cap how far you can zoom out in ICS far below getting a full image, when this isn't the case for these programs in gingerbread. Some strange global setting in ICS, it seems...)

i use maildroid !
i dont know whether pinch zoom is supported or not but its worth a shot !
I've tried fixing permissions to get rid of the force close but nothing. But itabnot force close in a sence. Its whenever I try to start an app, of the phone process, or the system setting, it say that unfortunately the *process name* is not responding. I've flashed the rom 3 times consecutively and the kernel and fixed permissions and the same things still happens. :-/. Guess its just my luck

Thanks for the suggestion!
I gave it a shot. Unfortunately, it also won't allow zooming out on emails if installed on ics even though when it's installed on gingerbread, it zooms out just fine. It's definitely a systemic issue on all ics-based roms for all phones. People have been complaining about it for all ics phones, not just the Nitro. Oh well. Till they change that, I'm sticking with gingerbread! Because of what I work with, tons of my emails are ginormous, and I need to be able to get a full overview for it to be useful. I don't have any major qualms with gingerbread anyway. Honestly, I just wanted to get rid of the color banding, but that'll just have to wait =P

Try a complete wipe (including your SD card). Also, don't restore anything from TiBu. Sometimes that will clean things out.

CM9 RC1
I hate this. Because CM9 & AOKP are so freakin awesome. Great battery life
and incredible GUI options. Especially AOKP which I liked better than CM9.
But as good as they are, I'm just getting bettery performance with stock when it
comes to my only PERSONAL test. This doesn't mean stock is better overall. It
just means stock is better for the one test that I have which is pretty hard on a
phone.
I've tried CM9 as well as AOKP based on both ICS and Jelly Bean. Also tried
multiple kernels and performance settings. But no matter what I try, they all lag
REALLY BAD on this webpage that has tons of gifs on it:
WARNING: Some pages on this thread have nudity.
The direct page I'm linking is pretty PG13 though.

I like to show the gifs to my bar buddies. And can't do that with CM9/AOKP, but
stock ROM does it flawlessly. No lag for me at all when scrolling up/down the
thread page I posted. All the video gif's play nice & smooth.
With CM9/AOKP, they all judder/halt-stop/lag.
If I'm doing something wrong, please let me know. Cuz I really want to go back
to AOKP!

I already flashed a ROM called Resurrection [TEAM_INSOMNIA] and it's doing nicely so far.
I just went to that website with chrome on a JB rom to test, it's smooth as hell.
So you must be doing something wrong.
Just ran that site on cm9 using Chrome. Loaded almost instantly and was insane smooth. People are quick to blame the phone and software. User error maybe?

This is true, stock wasnt horrifically as bad as I thought it would be then again I wanted to see cm9 running on this. Can you recommend a stock-like custom rom in the dev section? Or just stock itself is getting par performance as the custom ones?

I've tried two different SIII phones.
My LTE and also my 20Mbps WiFi.
Three different CM9/CM10 based ROM's.
Stock browser & Dolphin.
Always full wipe between ROM flashes.
Tried naked ROM's, without any setup or app installs by me.
Stock works great, CM9/CM10 doesn't.

Running CM10 and Chrome and that page is perfectly smooth once it finally loads. From my experience, loading 50 animated GIFs at once is murder on any connection.
Okay this is distressing.
I've tried EVERYTHING to get CM9/CM10/AOKP to work smoothly on the page I linked above. Nothing worked.
And stock works perfectly each & every time I go back to it, on the first try.
Is there ANYONE else on CM9/CM10/AOKP who gets studdering/jerky behavior with those gifs? After the page loads up, the gifs should start playing and keep playing smoothly as you scroll up & down the page. No stopping, then starting.
in aokp/chrome, the scrolling is smooth yes but the gif playback kinda lags behind until you lift your finger off the touchscreen or until the scrolling stops
