XDA DEVELOPERS Firefox Search Plugin - About xda-developers.com

​
Hey there all, I was recently searching the Mycroft Project, and found that an XDA DEVELOPERS search plugin for Firefox has been released! Now you can search XDA DEVELOPERS without having to actually navigate here first. Here's a link to the Mycroft download page. Just click the button in there and it'll install.

This has been around for years. I even have it linked in my sig. As a noobs best friend

Broken links on defy

I go on sites like slickdeals a lot and for some reason, many of the links that people post don't work.
For example: http://m.slickdeals.net/forums/showthread.php?t=2469686
The link in the first post of that doesn't work for me. I know its not the link/site because it works on my blackberry and my vibrant but not the defy.
Can someone else please try the link in that first post and let me know if it works for them? This is driving me nuts. Thanks.

It's not the link i posted itself.
when you go to the link, the first post in the thread has a link.
Here's the link. It works on my blackberry, desktop, vibrant, etc but not my defy.

Is miren browser one of those that compresses the page before sending to you?
That is why I specified opera mobile...Opera mini is one of those and sometimes the going through the proxy/compressing the page can mess things up a bit.
Otherwise you could go into settings and manage applications and clear the cache for the browser and see if that helps.
It only works with opera mini which is compressed.
Wont work with non compressed.such as opera mobile, miren, or the stock browser

There's one what? Golden Sun 2? Bro I tried every Golden sun Two - They dont work! all that happens is the intro starts then it just restarts after the intro, every single time. It doesn't work. I know Dark Dawn doesnt work either because they cant even get that one emulated properly on PC much less on a 1GHZ Xperia Play.
Hes saying there is already a Thread on this in "Themes and Apps" here:

Oh Ok, will close thread. Anyone knows how to delete a thread?

Adobe Flash Player...

I've read on a few forums about how Adobe Flash Player is no longer available on new Android devices and how it's been pulled from the Google Play Store.
In case anyone didn't realize this, I was able to install it on my Droid Razr M by going to "My Apps" in the Google Play Store and downloading it.
I guess if you've downloaded it in the past, it stays in your Google Play Account "My Apps" list.
People help me out so much on these forums, hope this helps someone else.
Just installed (; it actually works. Thank you!

Not supported by Jelly Bean, but when you get to JB there's an APK hanging around somewhere if you really need it.

Thanks...but I just figured it out. Chrome does not support flash....so I installed a different browser that does.
Thanks for the offer.

Mind if I ask which browser you went with?
I was trying out Opera for a while, maybe I should have given it more of a chance...
I don't like Chrome.
I used dolphin. I have it on my nook tablet and has a great interface.

Anyone tried Firefox for Android? How is it? Battery drain?

IMHO Opera Mobile is the best web browser out there!
Anyone mind sharing the apk for Flash Player with me? I did install it before on other devices but it now tells me the Razr I is not compatible.
I actually really like chrome and how it syncs quite well between multiple devices.

IMO I hated opera. Sometimes u have to refresh the feed in order to bring up a website that you click on.. that is the page will show up completely white for me. For example.. wiki answers. Always use that for help on homework topics but opera doesn't seem to load it while others do just fine.. got real annoying

I downloaded flash drive from Adobe's website and put it on my Razr M without any issue it works great.

You can find all of Adobe's FLASH Player builds here:
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html#main_Archived_versions
Scroll down and you'll see every APK compiled for Android 4.x (and older versions too). I always prefer to pull APKs direct from the developer.
Adobe Flash is still in the google play store, I guess it's just hidden?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.adobe.flashplayer
Why is that? Why don't they want us to use it?

Adobe officially stopped supporting Flash as of August 15th, and announced there would be no support for JB. The best referring article I could find is here:
http://www.redmondpie.com/long-live-flash-adobe-stops-supporting-flash-on-android-as-of-today/
I think the bottom line is that Adobe is focused development on HTML5. Older devices can still install Flash from the market, but nothing running ICS or JB.

Screenshots of your favorite multiwindow setup

Just curious. I see very few reasons to use this feature. I just hold home for to seconds and hop back and forth. Or copy and paste. What do you guys love it for?

Is it too late to modify the topic before it's flooded with tons of useless pics showing 2 apps running? No offense, but it's an idea as pointless as posting home screens or telling which color phone you bought.
Perhaps we would all be helped by elaborating on, "how have you gotten the most use or productivity using mw"

When I'm editing files on my phone per instructions of a developer, it is nice to have both root explorer open as well as a screen shot from gallery illustrating what needs to be done so I don't have to keep closing and opening the file editing app.

I find it makes it easier to copy text from an app (like browser) into an SMS/email etc without switching back and forth. Don't use it a lot but when i do use it, it's very useful and works very well.
For me it solves the problem of YouTube shutting down whenever the app is not in use. I listen to a lot of music there and many videos aren't even videos but just images with the audio playing. Now I fire up youtube in 1 section and open the browser or whatever else in the other and maiximize its size.
I use it while doing Google chat with people while also Web browsing.

Best Floating YouTube app.

What is the best YouTube floating app?
I started using 'Floating YouTube Popup Video'. But I am looking for something better...if there is one.
I am interested as well.
Stickit or popup browser... just I'm my opinion.
