browser.apk from Nexus S????

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!

Someone post please update.zip with 2.3 browser for JPX

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

I used to do the same on GB. But with ICS you can go to Settings - Developer Options and set the Transition and Window Animation speeds to 0.5x

Me, like many others DO NOT have the icon to lock the device. Please tell us how to activate it.
Also, I can send messages to contacts. I just tested.
Cheers!

Boy is my face red. Battery % mod is the one mod I always do and I'm so use to it I forgot I even used it.

Only thing I seem to notice is that when I unlock it very quickly gets to my homescreen. Not that it was laggy before, but it may have been a bit slower.

Wow you guys are seeing performance improvements from 4.1 to 4.1.1. I went straight from 4.0.4 and the difference is incredible. And ICS wasn't that slow to begin with!

Hello, sorry for my bad English.
Could you tell if it really works in XS?
thanks for the input!

Nothing new, these were shared long ago.

Reply to all... Yes u can apply it and on sl......
I know those tweaks are not new but ive collected those that made my device faster and without lags in one place so it will be easy for users to find
So are those tweaks working?

Works very well here in my XS with stock.45 rom! Even the browser get smoother.
Good job!

No change felt.
Can you throw some light on what it does exactly.

the first tweaks i dont know what done but i felt that my device faster
the new tweaks made scrolling faster (the first 5)
and the other 2 made the call delay minimum....
the scrolling is especially faster in settings where i felt much lag..
have you saved the build prop after the edit

Normally.. I did the same of the post, with solid explorer i opened the build.prop and paste these lines at the end and saved. Then I rebooted and now the ui is very smoother. And there's other fix that I loved, the mod eliminated boring delay to keypad to calls.
Make sure to save the file before reboot
Good luck

thanks, could put a screenshot of how you did it in the build.prop?
esque look than the other lines to make room use #

You know guys how to remove the lag in the settings and some other apps as well? Go to settings, scroll through the bottom, choose "Developer options", and check "Force GPU Rendering". I know it's not a new thing, but not everybody knows this
I'm an XZXperience 2 ROM user btw. Unlocked boatloader also.

A little help with Paranoid Android...

Running DeviantXone and the ROM just got PA settings implemented into it. I was just wondering how I can make my gallery look like "3D'ish" and Youtube as well. I've seen pics of that but I have NO idea what-so-ever how to do it myself lol. Thanks to anyone that can help.

It shouldn't matter. The individual app should be able to be changed without needing to change overall density.

Go to the pa settings and select apps, then scroll down to the one you want and select the density there.
