Is the text still there after it blows up and does it make a loud BOOM? Sorry, had to use boat browser, superior to dolphin and it'll do text reflow very well. It resizes the text after I zoom in a lot and all I do is scroll down, no left/scrolling.

Stock messaging awful mms quality?

So every time I send a screencap people always tell me the text is blurry and can't read it. Today I tried sending the same pic but used handcent and the quality was a whole lot better. Anybody knows why the stock messaging compresses mms into such a bad quality? It's not noticeable on pictures of ppl or things just when sending a picture with text on it. Hmm?

Yes. Unfortunately you have to run something like go SMS and change the send size if u want crisp mms.
Or email em

I don't know if this occur to me as well but i can tell you that when i send an MMS it just stays like "on a loop" (Sending it) like FOR HOURS!!! It's insane, & yes, I'm running stock for now just to know how the phone works by himself without any tweaks... (I'm not giving it much time now, I've heard A LOT OF AWESOME THINGS & ROMS in here; so please don't judge me ...)
Is there something that I need to change for this
I guess I can email them about it. Thanks for the reply.

Sounds like you need to call Sprint and have them refresh your data connection. Mine sends them in like 1-3 seconds.

Locking in the browser while web surfing (stock browser)

Is there a way to do it? The gingersnap rom somehow did it by default. No other rom does it that I've tried
what do you mean by locking the browser?
When you're scrolling through text its nice to have the text to move up and down only, not freely. I didn't realize how nice of a feature it is until I flashed something else over gingersnap.
I know what you are.talking about, use dolphin browser, it locks on text.

Chrome beta am I missing something

Hear lots of.people.raving about it but.is.it just me or are the settings options limited and is it all that,examples are when you go into bookmarks and select the chrome tab no option to creat folders in there,when pinch to zoom the text doesn't resize to fit the screen .I'm use to dolphin which seems for more user friendly .Any tips on getting the best out of chrome as I think I need to get on board with it then I can link it with my pc and tablet

I also couldn't find the option to switch between desktop and mobile mode.
When you press the menu menu on the chrome top bar you have an option to "Request desktop site".

is there a quicker way to access bookmarks on dolphin i swipe from the side and all my bookmarks are there one click and your on the page,in chrome you have to select menu button/select bookmarks/select folder/select link very long winded way to get to bookmarks

I think the rave about chrome is less about its options and more about its pure speed. I personally thing the stock android 4.0 browser has more options. Although this latest update of chrome made it kinda sluggish IMO
Lack of a true exit button is why I'll continue to use Dolphin as my browser of choice
Gestures in dolphin is fantastic, hopefully chrome will have similar support.

Btw guys, dolphin user, where the hell is the tab switcher now in version 8.0? Been trying to look for it, no dice. It was there all along on the previous versions, when swipe left, in line with the add-ons(at the bottom part).
My favourite thing about it is that you can have chrome tabs open on your desktop and bam - click the button and they will appear on your phone. It is pretty smart.
Lack of Flash can be slightly irritating

Flashify is the app.
In the latest Chrome update you can play embedded YouTube videos by clicking on them and it opens them with the Youtube app.

Not sure if this is a new feature but

In the default browser in jelly bean you can zoom in my sliding your figure up and down the side of the screen.

Thanks. I think this is a new feature to achieve single hand operation.
do you see the same behavior with email as well?
That's not new you can do the same in ICS
Edit:
Sorry nvm you can't do it on ICS my fault.
This is the most annoying feature I have ever encountered. I wish there was a way to turn it off. Whenever I'm reading a article on the browser I constantly keep zooming in while trying to scroll
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda app-developers app
Agree man, absolutely hate it. Main reason I don't use the stock browser. Always keep on zooming or panning out when reading an article.
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda premium
Now that I know it's there I love it.
From what I can see, some love it while others hate it. I personally use Chrome for web browsing on my GS3 but at least now we know that feature is there in the stock browser.
I stumbled across this when I almost dropped my phone in the toilet XD. Off topic but when you guys plug in your usb to your computer to add music and such things do you still get that syncing app that pops up on your screen? Mine seems to be gone now ever since the update.

I don't use the default email app but gmail doesn't do it.

The new Gmail (updated today) does do it. You'll need to go into settings and enable 'Auto fit Messages'. VoilĂ , zooming in with the slide of a finger and pinch to zoom of course.

That's what it is, thank you for clearing that up! I thought my phone was freaking out and randomly zooming in & out when I would scroll around. I noticed it first in Reddit Is Fun, it must use the default browser when you browse external links from inside the app. I wish the phone would've had one of those "did you know" tips pop up the first time you do it, as an FYI.

[Q] Multiwindow usage trick if possible

So, i am on att i1317 4.1.2 android with multi window enabled.
Is it possible to open any url from gmail to chrome in multiwindow automatcally? this would be a great boost to the productivity rather manually dropping gmail and chrome into two windows.
I thought that was what pop up browser was for. .. I know it's not Chrome but still. ..

Popup browser is pretty much useless for the following reasons:
1. It comes as a popup rather fit as a multi-window slot
2. If you need to read more and make it full screen it reloads the entire page again making it very inefficient thing to do
3. being a popup its mostly obstructive to the base window
4. And finally its not a chrome
So, would have been nice to have a way to open urls directly in the chrome as a multi-window rather manually doing it
