First this in not the full chrome 25 for android! This is just a little teaser
Google said that, they will release a dev build of chrome matching the desktop dev releases this year, so i thought i will give it a go and try to build it from source now. Not all source is merged now. it seems i cant build the full apk only the chrome test shell. It does not have the ui
nor the full rendering engine and many other things missing, but it can display 1 webpage at a time. so if my cpu time is gone i thought i would share the result
what is there:
Can open and surf one webpage at a time
New webkit 537
Faster javascript
422 point in html5test.com
what is missing:
no ui at all
scrolling and zooming is worse than in the latest 18 release ( many stuffs not merged back now)
I think the direction where chrome is headed is good, but it is still far from there.

Very cool. Throw in an adblock plugin and I'll sing at your wedding.
Reminds me of the browser on my old nokia phone.

has xda developers ever thought about some new themes or just a new look?? not thats its unsightly,its pretty nice to access and use, just wondering??
I'd be happy with something that was a bit more QVGA friendly, I find it somewhat cumbersome to navigate this site from my 8525 - maybe it's me... who knows
Actually I was thinking of both versions, but the pda version does load much quicker
My problem with the PDA Site is that everything on it is at least one day behind everything on the main site...
Maybe cutting out things like avatars, signature pictures, embedded tags like

I see your point, and will back down.
I'm quite happy with it as it is, and the site loads fine on my prophet.
Hmm, as far as the PDA version is concerned, I can't speculate on that for I have never used it. I always browse XDA Dev in full view Opera Mini. Even then, I find that the layout of the forum is quite clean and manageable. I would not recommend any unnecessary changes. If it ain't broke don't fix it, but fix the broken stuff (haven't noticed any so far)

It has built in options.
Its own dropdown overlay
Even minimize, maximize and a working x out option.
Fit for any geek that wants that desktop feeling on your epic. It's aimed at Tablets I believe, but works great, according to the dev, anything you can do on your stock browser, it can do. Yes, that includes youtube.
I was not able to run two youtube videos at the same time, (just for giggles, not like you need to) I am unaware if its a developer side limitation, or our Epic hardware.
Glad I could share, enjoy! (Its paid, but affordable)

I use this on my A500 Iconia and it works really well. Browser is quick and has all the major features of other browsers. For the epic through I didn't find it as useful.
Could be useful
Aside from the very intuitive minimize maximize and draggable nature of the app the browser is very powerful as well. I hope we see more apps come with windowed options.
Edit: replaced my browsers alltogether for this

Hello!
I am a heavy user of RSS/google reader and I have to read a lot of articles everyday.
Here I wrote an app: Quick News for myself to speed up the reading. Maybe someone like me will like it!
Bug reports and suggestion are welcome!

Thanx! looking good
I'm new to windows 8 and just starting to learn the new metro, apps and stuff..
I also use Google reader alot!
Have your app on the side of the screen and see all my new Google Reader items...
Only thing is I have to manually refresh it to get new items... would like it to auto refresh so new items 'pop up' on the side
Maybe a way to set minutes between refreshes?
And one other thing...
when I Browse original source and then Launch Browser.. nothing happens.. I have Firefox browser as default browser.. maybe thats why??
Link is broken? I would really like this app...
it's a very good app bro faster than any rss reader i've ever used on win 8
any mirror?
Pulled from my Note 2 and working on my OG Epic as well as any other stock Sprint VVM app in the past... that is to say that it doesn't FC (so-far), My AKOP/TW/CM10.1 modded ui did however crash taking a couple of the screen shots,
Code:
not sure if related.
Don't forget the thanks!

Click to collapse

What I'm saying is that this is the original apk so desclaimer etc. So without further adieu I give you the apk!

"Edge of Night" theme
It has no widget Otherwise a decent update.
I bet we see one in the next full update.
Any update to this application? Curious if a fix was pushed with a widget included.
This thread is obsolete now. See the latest version here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2218441
They added a widget, but it's still just as goofy with simple UI bugs as the original FC09 VVM app has. (Constant black rounded background behind the app name, and the name "Voicemail" is cut off.)
