Ohh I really love to find a mod that do this!
I modified the one in Tweaked to do just that - it only expands into chrome though (removed the stock browser). I used the modified expandable one that is floating around as a base, but I also adjusted a few things so that it retained the original stock dimensions and filled a bit more of the screen when expanded.
It's a smali edit - you need to replace the call to the stock browser with a call to Chrome instead.

Sure, that's what I did - I in fact modified it a bit further so that it will look for chrome first, and if that isn't found it'll fall back on the stock browser. You can pull it from tweaked, or if you'd like I could upload a flashable zip.

Worked perfectly! Does it look for any browser besides the stock one or specifically Chrome?

Right now it looks for chrome first and will always use that if its there. If it isn't then stock (and in theory this could be either TW or AOSP) browser gets called. I suppose I could work in other browsers now that I know where it all goes down. Was there another you were thinking of?

Nope - do you have Chrome installed? All this mod really does (beyond the expandable bit, and being able to choose it from the app drawer) is set it so when you want to have the popup browser content go into a "full" browser it will look to do so first with chrome, and if that's not there then it'll look for the stock browser. Is it not doing that for you?

Yep, Chrome is installed! I flashed it through TRWP, maybe that has something to do with it?
Oh, when I click from a link, I got the regular sammy's pop up browser not Chrome browser.

Right - this is a modded version of sammy's popup browser. When you are in the popup browser there is an arrow that points up and to the left in the left corner. If you click on that, it takes whatever you are viewing in the popup browser and throws it into a "full" browser. This mod looks to throw it into chrome first, then the stock browser if chrome isn't around.

Not when you expand into the full browser. But the button up on the right will make the pop up window bigger.

Did not work. I searched for another one on google. I'll try that one now and let you guys know.
I tried the 3d gallery i found and it seems to be running as good as the stock one did. I'll update this if thats not the case. I have Vanilla 2.2 messaging and gallery. It is partially hybrid
Can you please port the .apk you found? My gallery app is acting up and doesn't read my pics. I'm rooted running stock de-odexed rom and am planning on deleting it and re-installing it..thanx

Can you post the gallery apk that you found, I'd like to add it back to mine as well!
This should work for you guys. Enjoy.
Still doesnt read my sd card..I've tried everything and it still wont read my pics Can anyone post the files in the thumbnail folder that obviously aren't the actual thumbnail pics??
FYI, this seems to break some of the options in the Sense Camera. The menu/gallery softbuttons don't seem to work consistently.

I dont quite get what your referring to. Explain it a little better.
He's talking about the little picture on the top right corner right that comes out after you take a picture..Now when you click it, it does nothing..instead of opening the picture.

And the bottom-most button below the "camera shutter" button in the Camera App. It looks like a little SD Card and normally takes you to the "gallery", HTC's Album. I'm thinking we have to change the link somehow.

Whats happened to thumbnail pictures here on XDA all of a sudden?
I click on a thumbnail that someone has posted to enlarge it and all that happenes is an annoying huge black box opens over the screen...
I have tried this on 2 different computers using 2 different browsers and same problem...
I do not get any blackbox, I get the image opened in a tab. (The preview feature with navigation is apparently gone, which frankly is a good thing, because it has been screwing the image quality in an incredible way).

SRWare Iron 13.0.800.0 (basically, Chromium v13 derivative).
This is still an issue today. I'm running IE8 and the thumbnail won't open up. This used to work, but now the screen goes dark gray (kind of like a privacy filter) and no larger image appears.
Hi,
Could anyone please test JReader Google Reader app (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1782777, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jyvee.jreader) and let me know if you get any issues on Galaxy S2 (layout, style, crashes)?

Nice app...
Syncs the feeds properly...
didn't quite like the list view, and on click which displays only a preview and on second click the article is marked as read....need to check settings to change this behavior....to display previw in list view and open article on click.
need to get used to the bottom icons in the list view... they look all too similar....

Hi, click shouldn't mark items as read. Items are marked read on image button click only (the top rightmost one in item's expanded view).
I agree about action bar icons, will try to think of something new

Ok, so I just got the HTC One V and I really like it - except for when browsing the internet.
I've tried stock browser, dolphin and chrome, but they all have the same issues:
1) When zooming any text will blur stay that way for 2-4 seconds.
2) When scrolling down or up somewhat fast pages won't show for a few seconds - all I'll see is big white and grey squares.
3) Zooming and dragging seems pretty unresponsive.
The phone is up to date software wise and I'm running complete stock Android.
Is this just the way it is, or can it be fixed? I'm comparing to a HTC Desire which was my old phone, and it's far inferior on the One V - but only when browsing

I'm trying opera right now and it's better, but still not very good.
But is it fixable on custom roms?
I plan on rooting anyway, but I won't bother if this issue exists on custom roms as well. Too much of a deal breaker.
How is it on the the custom rom you're using sera??

What about the rom in your signature? That's not the one you mentioned - I take it the one from the sig isn't stable and has a working camera?

Well a working camera/camcorder is an absolute must for me, so I'll have to wait for 4.2, but that's ok.
I'll look around and see if I can't find that rom you mentioned and try it out. If it works that would really be excellent

Hmm ok, so I tried Opera - last one I tried was Opera Mini - and it works really well. No blurry at all, so that's nice...I still just can't abide the fact that I can't use Dolphin or Chrome.
What's your experience Seraz, do other browsers than Opera work well on that rom of yours? It'd be awesome if I could get Chrome or Dolphin working - I would really hate being forced into using Opera.

You should flash a custom Rom to improve your overall all performance or go to settings>developer options select force gpu rendering it should help out
Sent from my One V
Tried the GPU rendering aswell, but didn't really make a noticable difference.
I'm getting rid of the HTC One V, giving the HTC Desire to my mom and buying a HTC One X for myself. That should solve it.

If you feel like opening up some apk's and finding the asset you can always do that. Could be in framework-res, contacts or any number of default apps though
