Is there any other browser besides stock Internet that supports the hover option with the Spen? I enjoy opera but the scroll option got me hooked i just don't like the stock browser. Any help? I tried chrome, dolphin, cm, and think i read somewhere fire fox don't. I love this option and need it in my life

I've recently rooted my Desire and am running DeFrost but I've noticed something different with the web browser. For some reason, I can no longer hide the fact that the browser is a mobile browser which changes the appearance of some websites. I don't like this.
Is there any way around this? I was wondering if my browser before was a HTC one so maybe switching to a ROM like Modaco or OpenDesire's official port would help. Thing is, I'm not particularly fond of Sense.
Also, I read something about there being a way to replace the hosts file so it blocks out the ads. Is this still possible in Froyo?
If you get Dolphin HQ browser from market, you can download a desktop toggles add-on, which switches between android and desktop ID
Will that work for all browsers or just Dolphin?
Or just type in about:debug in the address bar and "go". Then go to Menu > Settings > UAString
This only half works.
Some sites are now intelligent enough that even though you change your user agent to a desktop one that they can work out you are a mobile and redisplay a mobile specific page
about:debug doesn't seem to work in the default Froyo browser.
It's ok. I've found the answer here: http://www.nexusoneforum.net/forum/...ion/6167-change-user-agent-android-phone.html
When you do about:debug nothing APPEARS to happen, but if you then go into the settings there are more options available.
I've been using third party browsers such as Dolphin HD and XScope for quite awhile. I decided to give the stock Gingerbread browser a try. I set my homepage to Google Search but can't figure out how to navigate back to my browser homepage. I can get there by pulling up my bookmarks but is there an easier way? I don't see a home bottom on the browser anywhere.
How can I get a browser that I can change the user agent, and not lose all my bookmarks? AOSP worked fine for me on my note1.
I use ICS Browser + to have a dedicated "desktop" browser, plus the thumb controls are great. It pulls bookmarks like the stock AOSP ICS browser. I started using it on my TouchPad, but use it every once in a while on my phone when chrome won't request desktop view.

Ill try it, thanks. I have a ton of bookmarks I don't want to lose, but I use desktop almost exclusively.
Going to try this...brb.

[MOD][JellyBean] Replace stock browser with AOSP browser
Works! AOSP browser, kept all my bookmarks, user agent settings.
Quick question.... Chrome is not being 'remembered' as my default browser. So if I use for example Google's widget for internet favourites. Every time it requests me to select a browser. (Chrome or Samsung's stock browser). It never remembers the option even though I set chrome as default.... Anyone else having this issue. Anyway round this? Obviously if won't let me disable the stock browser.
HI Andy,
Did you ever figure this out?

I really like the note 7 stock browser though i really hate that most browsers have a tab button to see open tabs.
Is it possible to get tabs up top like dolphin browser, boat browser, like a normal pc browser, etc on the stock browser?
