[Q] Use chrome beta as default browser - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a way to set chrome beta as the default browser? (When you click the browser.apk [default browser application], it should open opera instead of the android browser)
Reason: I am currently running MIUI 4.0.3 and i like the browser icon and want it to run chrome beta instead of the regular android browser.

I dont think there is a way to change the icon of the app in MIUI 4.0.3. Remember the rom is still in beta.

Or other browsers? e.g. ICS browser, chrome beta?
Is there a possible way?
What do you mean by referrer?
Edit:
If you mean 'Launch by default'? This can be cleared in Settings>Apps>(AppNameHere) and clear Launch by default settings.

Browser question

How can I get a browser that I can change the user agent, and not lose all my bookmarks? AOSP worked fine for me on my note1.
I use ICS Browser + to have a dedicated "desktop" browser, plus the thumb controls are great. It pulls bookmarks like the stock AOSP ICS browser. I started using it on my TouchPad, but use it every once in a while on my phone when chrome won't request desktop view.

Ill try it, thanks. I have a ton of bookmarks I don't want to lose, but I use desktop almost exclusively.
Going to try this...brb.

HELP: Browser Doesn't Open New Tabs

New G3 with strange problem - the built-in browser will not open a new tab. For example, if I am in Google News and click on an article to view the page it won't open.
And no issue doing this with Chrome - only in stock browser.
Any help will be appreciated
Don't use stock browser? Android equivalent of internet explorer

kitkat - stock browser is chrome, and says it needs updating?

The stock browser on my desktop the blue world widget, it has started asking me to update it and directs me to an google chrome download page, but it downloads a separate chrome browser it does not integrate the updated files with the stock browser so it still asks me to update it, what kind of crap is this.
I don't want to use an separate chrome browser, the stock browser is chrome supposedly and is supposed to work with the Samsung RGB sensor to keep the whites white.
Is any other kitkat user or do lollipop users get this message as well.
You can see the message i am getting in the link below.
