Hey guys! I have my GNex since yesterday and I love it oh so much
Just one question: Is it possible to change the stock browser's agent permanently to desktop? Because I always browse on desktop mode and hate most mobile optimized sites :/ And everytime I restart the browser I have to tick "show desktop site" again.
If not possible on stock, is there a solution with root? I'm gonna root that beauty anyway ASAP
Regards

P.S. sorry if such a thread already exists, but the search function from xda app is unbelievably crappy...

its not a stupid question its just not possible on the stock browser. The only option is to install another browser such as Dolphin Browser HD which works very well and can be set to desktop by default.

In Honeycomb you type in "about:debug" in the browser address bar, which enables the Debug category in settings. From there you go to UAString and select Desktop. Does this not work in ICS?

I know that hack, but it didn't show me an agent to change to desktop mode on ICS. In Honeycomb it's possible to change between mobile, tablet and desktop agent by default since version 3.2 btw. But about:debug shows some other neat options too, like OpenGL rendering for example.

I think you're talking about the check-box for "Desktop version" that is already available without about:debug? That's what I talked about in the OP. It resets after every browser restart.

Ok thanks. I'm aware there are other really good browsers, but Google improved the stock browser a lot in Android 3.x and 4.x and I kinda like it a lot So I thought it might be possible to hack. Doesn't seem like that though :/
Do you think devs could modify the browser.apk in some way to make desktop mode persistent?
Cheers

Maybe in Honeycomb. It definitely doesn't stick in Ice Cream Sandwich. I've tried it. It doesn't stick. That's why I said it's not persistent.
Hey man, I almost swear I saw that what your talking about in this hour long video by Google /Samsung in October some time. ICS is supposedly meant to be possible to do just never found an option.
Hahahahahaha
Just found it. Press menu (top right corner, three dots sat on each other) when in browser and you find a check box for request as desk top site. This should be what your after man
Edit
After a more careful read through seems you found this option already. As for making it stick after reboot surely its not too much hard work to check one box after reboot? Permanent solution unknown

Yeah, I knew about this feature from the start, but as I mentioned before, it doesn't stick to it. And I don't talk about full reboot, the option doesn't even stick if the Browser was closed and needs to be restarted

Hi everyone! Thank you for your help in getting CM up to a flawless standard! We are now almost ready to deploy CM 1.5 - it will include MMS blocking, Class0 auto replies and many other new and very cool features.
We need your help now to iron out any remaining bugs before we embark on a daemon rebuild. Please download the app from the market and get testing! Here are the issues we want to address specifically:
- If you have problems regaining 3G after the telephony restart. This should have been fixed. If not, please try "Slow radio restart" in Debugging and report your results!
- Issues moving list priorities on Light or Dark theme. Again, if you have issues, please switch to the other theme, try again and then report back.
- Notification color schemes. We are interested if the new notifications comply with the majority of frameworks.

This is a fully functional application. However, after a 24 hour demo period it will start nagging you to buy the Key, which will remove all nag
screens and timeouts from the interface. The nag screens are pretty light though, so users who dont want to spend can live with them.
Screens - VIEW GALLERY
So, has anyone done any testing?
Hey, running it since yesterday. Here are the issues I found:
1) Data connection not working. I waited for 15 minutes for data connection to start, restarted telephony service still no data.
2) Restarted phone, data came back for a while then again gone!!!!
3) Menu button is disabled, is this feature or bug?
4) I can't move to full screen mode. Maybe some problem with ROM? I'm using CheckROM v4, with siyah 2.6.2
5) Lot of FC due to lack of data connection as phone considers it enabled but apps don't get any data
Will let you know more if found

call log
The app work perfect...
In log menu we have: system, all, and whatever block list activated. If i delete a number in all tab, the other block list doesn't automatically clear up until i scroll pass it or exit and go back into log.
Feature request: pls include "FORWARD" in action. I do aware of forward option in call menu but that would forward all...
By the way guys, we have just released a new app that lets you securely switch between multiple installations of android on one device:

So I'm shopping for a Widget that toggles Mobile and GPS without having to be in the settings page. I don't know why Google didn't throw Mobile into the "Power Controls" but it's an absolute must.
I've tried:
http://www.appbrain.com/app/widgetsoid2-x/com.jim2
which Mobile doesn't work
http://www.appbrain.com/app/extended-controls/com.extendedcontrols
Costs, so unclear if it works. I would purchase it if I knew ICS controls worked properly.
Anyone have something working for them?

Buy it and try it. If it doesn't work, get a refund within the time frame.
It's also $0.99......

I bought and took the refund as they send you to the settings for GPS, and with Mobile they offer renaming the APN, which doesn't even work. So basically it's the same as any free one.
BAMF LTE widget works perfectly. It doesn't look very pretty, but it's totally functional.
Just google "bamf lte widget" because I can't post links... It's the top hit.
Flash it with CWM and it'll be in your widget list when you reboot.
no toggle widget will toggle GPS. it was a change that happened in froyo and it's now not possible for a third party app to change the GPS.
same goes for network switching. even if your rooted it's not possible. only system apps can change those. been like this for a while.
only way around it is something like bamf that installs itself as a system app.
Search for GPS toggle widget (root) by Jakar. Works on android HD ROM.
Oh, whoops, misread the original question.
The AOKP ROM and some other CM9 based ROMs have built in data and gps toggles in the notifications panel... I don't know other than that

Is your phone rooted? It doesn't work on my which isn't rooted yet.
Yes my phone is rooted but I think the name "Root toggle" is a misnomer because the app has never asked for root permissions.

I'm currently using Widgetsoid2.x and the data toggle works just fine for me. I have confirmed this on both rooted stock 4.0.2 as well as CM9 alpha 4.0.3.
In neither case did I need to touch the data toggle settings within Widgetsoid. In order for it to work, you must install it as a system app. Despite what it says on the dev's website about requiring adb push, I was able to simply use Root Explorer to drag the Widgetsoid2.x.apk to /system/app and then click on it, install, and reboot (for good measure).
Hope this works you as well

Not true. Network data switch works just fine with one click on GN with Elixir 2 unrooted. And GPS switch worked just fine in Froyo with Elixir 1.x.
when I was using Go Launcher I used a switch widget that worked great on my froyo phone
Try Power Toggles

Both GPS (via exploit) and Mobile Data CAN be toggled without root.
So if you are really looking for something that does that and you can't find it,
PM me and I'll see what I can do for ya!
(I am a beginning developer).
Btw, my first app is in-the-make.
It's a no-root extended powermenu, with poweroff, 4-way-reboot menu and QuickSettings.
The last one is just like it is in Android 4.2, but extended with a features you'd expect in a toggle app. GPS and Data toggles are already working, so PM me if you want it

Turn off No-Script or allow *.xda-developers.com. Thank you.
I have this problem, too. I think it started to occur when the new theme became the default theme and it got worse since then.
As an example:
I'm loading up xda and click on a subforum. The forum starts loading the new page and just a milisecond before it finishes loading (the new site seems to be fully loaded already but it's still in loading state according to the browser) it starts loading again. In addition, and that's really annoying, while loading the second time clicking on a thread just opens up the same page again (instead of the thread).
Because of this it can take me up to a minute to actually open the thread I want to open
Browser is Firefox 14 on Win7 x64 SP1, but it happened on 13, too. NoScript is not installed.
I don't have this problem with any other vbulletin board.
Works perfectly on Dolphin Browser and Chrome ICS. Try downloading the app.

I have the same problem on certain pages too. I am using Chrome 23 on Windows 7 and Fedora 17
I have the same problem, and have had it for weeks. Still happens after disabling adblock and whitelisting this site in noscript.
Use "Quick Theme Chooser" at the bottom of the page and change to "---- XDA 2013 Beta - 1024" theme.
If you are like me, you hate the all white of default Sammy N because it's obnoxious and straining. I have figured out how to apply purchased themes to the N beta. I was not able to purchase new ones either. I would get an error, even if I had the links.
Go to the Galaxy Apps store and select Categories. At the top of that page there will be a themes banner. Click on that, then go to the three dots at the top. Hit "My Page" then "Purchased". Your themes should be there, and you'll be able to download and apply them.
*Added screenshots in second post. The full site corrupted the pics and the mobile app wouldn't let me add in an edit.*

The Galaxy Apps Store shows that it is installed, but I can't access it. Am I missing something? I don't have anything disabled.
I realized I can do this through Samsung Themes without having to go through the Galaxy Apps Store. Thanks!!!
Anyone else have issues with Ultra Powersaving Mode? I disabled it and after resetting my phone everything was blown up out of proportion, wallpaper reverted, quick toggles reverted, and several other setting reverts. Had a theme installed so it may be related during restoring theme.

I had that issue at first as well. The App store automagically appeared somehow. Going through themes should work, but I bet an error every time I try to do it through settings.
