Or even the JB 4.1 browser. Does anyone have it?

Thanks. I haven't installed it yet though because I noticed that the files inside the .apk were last modified on 28/02/2008 6.33pm. If Jelly Bean only came out this year, how is that possible!?
stock apks are also dated to 2008. it's normal
Error

Hey muzikarik,
It doesn't work when I replace the stock browser with this...
Even if I try to install it, it says, "error parsing package"
Where did you get that from?

I just presumed that the JB browser was the same on all Jelly Bean devices. Therefore, if someone with JB posted it, then anyone could use it.. Is that wrong?

I believe the only devices with official 4.2 right now use chrome as their default browser, i don't know if Google has made one for 4.2 like the previous ones.

Oh ok. That would explain why I haven't found it.
Having too many browser also can cause your browsing slow so just disable plug in because that also cause your browser to search for plug in that also can cause slow on your browser...stock browser usually fast...

Doesn't work on GB, only ICS
OP, quit being a tool and simply get ICS. >.>
It's got hardware decoding and everything, you should be fine using it as a daily driver.

ICS is getting good now on the KF. Kernel 3.0 has hardware acceleration and all that good stuff.
And yeah, Dolphin Browser HD is a good alternative browser. I use it instead of the ICS browser.

An OTA wouldn't just remove your stock Browser and replace it with Chrome. Why would they do that?
They're going to start shipping new devices with Chrome as the stock browser. But considering you bought your phone with a Browser, it will always have Browser. They're not going to get rid of it for the GNex. If you want to use Chrome, download it from the Play Store and disable Browser. Its the exact same.

NO. you can't take an OTA when you're on a custom ROM...
Well. Imo they should replace stock browser in gnex with chrome... Would be 1 useless app less.

Change your build.prop to the new version so it doesn't check and find that your device "needs" the OTA.
Or just update your ROM to the latest version based on the OTA.
I find that the stock browser is much faster and smoother than Chrome, and there seems to be a lot of people who think the same thing. However, Chrome is much more feature-packed, has better favourites management and ftp support. That's why I use both, but for the occasional surfing the stock remains my favourite.
Flash is beeing cast out. I ve had only 1 opportunity to use it. And there is no flash player for 4.1 so they really shoul include chrome in place of stock browser.

I would hate Google if they got rid of it.
It's not useless if other ppl want it.
If you don't like then download Rom Toolbox and delete it from the phone and be free from this "useless" app.

I had chrome and the stock browser installed before the jb update. Since the update though, Chrome was automatically set as default without me selecting it.

What browser are you guys using on your HOX with Jelly Bean?
I'm running tbalden's CM10 Alpha, and since it appears my favorite browser (ICS browser+) is still incompatible with JB, I'm interested in your browser choice. I really like ICS Browser+'s quick controls. They are a Labs feature in the stock browser, too, but for some reason they don't work on my HOX, they just don't show up.
Any input?

And there I went thinking the makers of Apex were making a browser and wondering why I couldn't find it on play or on the web.
Seriously, though, any ideas why neither the stock browser's quick controls nor those of the "Quick ICS Browser" don't work on my JB HOX?
Whoops yes! Completely missed that
I use Quick ICS browser. That's smooth etc etc and works perfectly with CM10

I get it to work sometimes, but it just doesn't recognize my gesture very well... :S I do like it a lot if it work smooth though!
Boat Browser
Just discovered Boat Browser and I love it. Text reformatting on pinch zoom (Settings ->Labs ->Text wrapping) is what I was looking for. (ICS Browser + still not working on JB)
Different UI is not bad IMO.
Found this in the market and it works great, its ICS browser+ for JB.

It works? It says in the description that it isn't compatible with the N7.
Quick ICS Browser is an improved version of stock Android 4.0.3 Browser.
***Notice***
Nexus7 is currently not supported.
This browser doesn't work without Stock Browser.
***Jelly Bean (Android 4.1) Limitation***
cannot show url bar
cannot use auto text reflow

I tried it on Paranoid Android and it crashes back to the home screen quite a bit, some sites won't open fully and crash as well. I recently started using Boat Browser and like it a lot.
I hope Google adds the aosp browser back in the next ota. I am never stock but chrome is just crap compared to the stock jellybean browser in smoothness, speed, and features. Not to mention some apps depend on it.

You need a rom with the old Android stock browser included, quick browser and ics browser+ both rely on the stock browser for core functionality.
i was able to add stock browser on my N7.

only problem is that the URL bar is missing
***Jelly Bean (Android 4.1) Limitation***
cannot show url bar
cannot use auto text reflow
as this is 4.1 problem, im hoping that it will be fixed soon.
edit: im attaching newest version of Quick ICS (free).
I'm on Paranoid Android 2.54 (4.1.2) and the url bar works!
Flash, Stock Browser and Tablet-UI. 4.1.2 is Android as it should be!

I use the 4.1.2 stock browser and i think thats the fastest and most stable browsers out there. I also like that i can have full screen
But i've heard that google plans or have replaced the stock browser with chrome in 4.2.2? Is that true? It the stock browser gone in the SGS4 with 4.2.2 fw?
Chrome for me is just super laggy and slow with no support for full screen

well on theory the browser is Samsung's stuff not google so i would like to believe that the browser will not be changed, it is really awesome and I talk with the experience of having had to change my stock browser in all my previous devices because they were terrible.
hope It helped to you, if someone know it for sure I'll be glad to read it.
