Ok, so wanted to see what web browsers everyone uses for their Galaxy S2. I use Dolphin HD Browser Paid Version. It's quick and has a lot of plug-ins like quick switching from Android to Pc webpages. Plus a few color themes. So what do you guys use? And what's some benefits of it?

AOSP Browser, although I've heard good things about Opera Mini.
I would like to be able to use FireFox more but it kept messing up when clicking internal links. The reason is I have firefox sync setup and it syncs my tabs/bookmars/passwords, so I find that pretty convenient. Anyone have success with that? Maybe something xmarks based?

This is the first third party browser that displays desktop pages across the board...including NYtimes, engadget, gizmodo, wired etc
Which you say? New Firefox release. There is a desktop addon you have to download but it works beautifully!

Ok....so I must have one major bug then.
In all of the browsers you guys have mentioned not one, with desktop useragent setting, loads the desktop version of the sites mentioned in my post....nor about 10-15 others.
I assume yours DOES on those sites mentioned?

Too bad, it doesn't support flash..
yes and the display is poor....
I have found thy with boat browser mini...that if you copy the URLs of sites out want in desktop and put that URL/site in their site speedial home Pages I will then display the desktop at all times.
opera mini DOES display desktop...but its a bit of a clunky interface.
sorry I mean Opera Mobile.
Just type about:useragent in the stock browser

This only works for certain sites. Many sites like Engadget do not adhere to the stock browser user agent. So far, Firefox is the only one that works like what the OP says. Dolphin HD, Opera Mini, and Skyfire may all have settings to set user agent as "desktop", but many sites still go to the mobile versions.
i gotta admit though, i am excited about ff mobile!
Will the XDA app get upgraded for optimized use on tablets?

That could only happen if Tapatalk had a tablet optimized mobile app and from the looks of it, Tapatalk doesn't want to release a tablet update

that sucks. the app keeps crashing on my Galaxy 10.1 when i log in and try go bring up a forum.
i have the same problem :/
It works beautifully on my flyer.
It's in the works (XDA for Android Tablets). Look for it Q1.

The OP is asking about a tablet optimized version, not the standard version running on a tab.
Market ratings are dropping due to back of tablet support
I just bought the new HD version (also as a form of support to xda), but it seems the same as the standard version, i expected to see something like Gmail for tablet or Google Reader for tablet: where I can have a list of threads with preview, or something like that. maybe in future versions......
i also don't seem to understand how to add a forum favorites, long pressing a forum gives me the option to subscribe, not add to favs.
XDA is #1.....

Subscribe = favourites
Regarding being like Gmail for tablet, with previews, I don't think you'd find that feasible, due to everything taking longer to load. Unfortunately those systems are optimised server-side for this. This is a dynamic forum though, and to offer previews of lots of threads at once would just give you huge load times.
The new XDA Premium App for Tablets (HD) is an additional purchase to the phone premium app:

Galaxy Tab (P1000) with CM9 is not supported

Hi
Now it say the xda hd app has expired but there is no update?

Haha, my girlfriend was asking me if there was an app. My research showed there was one but it wasn't official and got pulled. The APK is no where to be found.
So yeah beer, football, cars, and boobs... Nothing to see here, move along.

My girlfriend just accesses it via Dolphin on her Epic. Did some research, and there is no official Pinterest app.
Just create a browser link on her home screen to http://m.pinterest.com/ and tell her you found it.
Edit: It looks like all the Pinterest apps were removed from the Market. No idea why.
I found this one but don't ask me if it works or not

Thanks, I am in the same boat with the Mrs....
There isn't an official app for pinterest that i'm aware of, but it shouldn't be too long now since the iphone version was released not too long ago. I also found the mobile version of the website buggy on Dolphin HD, Chrome, and the stock browser which is probably why she wants an app.
That pushpin app looks neat - too bad it's already gone. I wish pinterest would hurry up and release an app if they're going to make google remove all non-pinterest pinterest apps.

What exactly is pintrest?
Anyone noticed at times when using the internet 9 on windows that if you try to back out of a page you can't . On XDA.... Not talking about other sites..
When you right click the back button 4 ads seem be already clicked even tho you didn't click any . Seems like some topics or forum's ads are preloaded into the links.

Get rid of the liftdna BS!
I like internet 9 no issues with it just don't like how pages will hang to you can't back out . Because you are kinda forced on clicking ads that you don't wanna click on due to it being embedded into links.
I know sites make money off ads nothin wrong with that . Just wish it wasn't snuck in like that lol. Anyways hope you guys have a good weekend
See alot of that liftdna... Wonder what that is for?

IMO - it looks pretty cool.. would be more for "flashAholics" since most of us cant stay on a single ROM for too long !
nothing feels better than going back to a simple AOSP ROM , and the freshness ! hehehe...
but yeah i would try this
Yeah, that's the thing, I tried a whole buncha ROMs. I mean A LOT. Then, I played with my friend's phone while at work the other day. I managed to convince him to exchange with my N4 for an entire weekend. This thing really grows on you especially the lock screen where Frog did the most ingenuity, its pretty intuitive as to speak. As for the icons for the apps, I think they need better aesthetics and arrangement. They did Blinkfeed even before HTC even tried.
Imagine this on a Nexus 4 hardware, the experience would be fluidity at its peak. Forget butter, I'm talking about industrial strength lubricant.
To me it seems like a modded version of android. As you can see our uses the same messaging app. Looks nice though
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
I think the lockscreen would be an interesting change to use, but IMHO, the 'basic-ness' of the desktop screams "CUSTOMIZE ME!" to a mod junkie like myself. It would be a good port if you/me/somebody could figure out how to personalize all the UI aspects, like background, colors, fonts, etc.
