Can't figure out how to force opera to display deskop settings.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ranklepup:
Opera button-Settings-advanced-user agent

You better make sure you have the right opera also, because they have an ultra fast one that only displays in mobile views.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] klau1:
The problem with opera is that the fonts are too small compared to stock
[Eee Pad Transformer General] fldude99:
So just change the settings
[Eee Pad Transformer General] klau1:
how do you do that? there is just zoom

and if you use zoom on websites with tables, the tables will also become bigger, requiring an excessive amount of horizontal scrolling. which makes it pointless
[Eee Pad Transformer General] earlyberd:
The stock browser fonts are bigger because it uses what it refers to as a "wide viewport." Basically it just enlarges the page to make the fonts and other UI elements match the rest of the Android OS, which are huge compared to the standard fonts and UI elements of desktop operating systems. For instance, the typical task bar on a desktop OS is 24 pixels tall, while Honeycomb's notification bar is 48 pixels tall. If the fonts appear small on your tablet screen, it's because the tablet screen has a much higher DPI than a typical desktop monitor, and current websites are not designed for such a high DPI. Opera is simply displaying the pages as they were originally intended to be displayed on devices of 1280x800 resolution. The problem is that 1280x800 screens used to be 14-15" instead of 10.1".

where have you found v7?? I only see dolphin HD v6.2, dolphin mini 2.2 and for pad v1.0 in the market...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] CrazyPeter:
It's not going to be stupid fast, it's going to be the same speed as the stock Android browser, BECAUSE DOLPHIN IS THE STOCK ANDROID BROWSER.

How hard is it to understand that DolphinHD is justa skin on the standard browser, using the same rendering, the same javascript engine, just with a different UI.

Opera Mobile will smoke dolphin, as it's the only mobile browser to use hardware acceleration (not even stock one does), and it very fast anyway.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Stinky9:
Tried all browsers. I like Opera best because of the GUI and because it's the fastest IMHO.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] 34Ford:
Browser, browser, all I want is one with a good working ad blocker.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] GwynBleidd:
Firefox + adblock plus works as good as the desktop version in terms of ad blocking. Sucks in all other terms though.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jiyucn:
It can be downloaded from Android market? It seems I only get Dolphin HD 6.2 when I search browser.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] cowballz69:
Opera mobile does not use hardware acceleration hahaha. Scrolling websites on opera is like 15 frames per second while default browser scrolling is silky smooth like iPad.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gottahavit:
Then there is something wrong with your opera. Scrolling in Opera is silky smooth on all but the most intensive web sites.

the only reason I keep Dolphin installed is because the Flash Hardware Acceleration fix does not work on Opera, when that is finally fixed, dolphin will be gone too.

3.2 was suppose to bring hardware acceleration for stock browser, but I don't think it did.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] paultrevino:
For those looking for an ad blocker... Search the market for AdFree....

Seems to work great for me....
[Eee Pad Transformer General] cowballz69:
open gl rendering is built in to the browser since honeycomb was released, Opera mobile does not have open gl rendering, disable open gl rending in default browser and it will scroll just as bad as Opera.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Globespy:
Opengl and other technical assertions aside.... You are in the absolute minority of users who actually has a better experience with the stock browser. In there lies the truth. If everyone was experiencing the same performance as you seem to be saying your getting, then threads like this and other browsers in fact would not exist! It's simple supply and demand.

Stock browser blows for the vast majority of users, whether on stock or custom roms /kernels.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Bjd223:
He isn't saying it is faster than stock because it is a totally different browser. He is saying it is faster than the stock 3.2.1 browser BECAUSE IT IS A NEWER VERSION than what is available in the market.

If Dolphon v7 (which I can't find anywhere so I'm not even sure it exists) is probably built on the ICS browser core.

The OP should attach the apk if they have this newer version.

In my opinion the best broswer currently available in the market is Opera. The JS rendering engine is superb.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] GwynBleidd:
http://betanews.com/2011/10/21/dolphin-hd-7-for-android-adds-new-sync-feature/

I could actually post an apk if someone assures me it's not against ToS or anything.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] CrazyPeter:
Opera uses Android GPU acceleration, which is why scrolling and pinch to zoom is supersmooth.

www.tomsguide.com/us/Android-Opera-hardware-accelerated-pinch-to-zoom,news-8328.html

Even the stock browser doesn't have GPU acceleration. Even on my lowly HTC Legend is silky smooth in Opera Mobile.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] :
I do like the quick controls in the stock browser though...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lamlam01:
It's exclusively on getjar now; here's a copy.

Opera Mobile is great - but it does not play high resolution Flash very well is my experience: http://www.youtube.com/my_speed
[Eee Pad Transformer General] GwynBleidd:
I dunno, just played with it for a while... Don't find it to be 'stupid fast' or anything like that, even without extensions it'x about on par with stock. Will continue to use Opera for anything js heavy and stock for everything else. Uninstalled.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gottahavit:
An App can't include a new Browser Core. DHD uses the browser core on the device, otherwise they'd be asking you to root and apply a system file. The only way for an app using the android web core to be faster than stock is to do a better job with menu and background plugin interactions, but since the stock browser has almost none of this it's going to be minimal improvements at best. To the user claiming DHD is faster than Opera, can you compare DHD to stock? Maybe you got one of the "magical" devices where the stock browser performs well.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] joazito:
What Flash hardware acceleration fix?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Super Prince:
Dolphin Browser 7 + Flash Player 11

Full Screen 720 Plays Flawlessly in Youtube

For Normal Screen 720 playing there is a little lag

And For Me Opera is still better in scrolling ...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Bjd223:
I don't know enough technically about Android to comment on this, but I do know about PCs, Linux, and Macs. Anyway I'm not saying it updates the Browser core at the OS level (ie root required). I am saying it could add a new rendering engine (what some call the core) in addition to the stock browser just like some current alternate browsers do.

Since this is a beta made to work on honeycomb they would have to include the new rendering engine because I assume this was built with ICS in mind and obviously honeycomb does not have the newer build of the rendering engine. So either it uses the stock 3.2.1 rendering engine or it has a newer rendering engine, but I can't say for sure because I don't know.

I was basing this on the fact the user said there was such a pref difference between them. I am going to test it to see how it goes but I doubt it blows Opera out of the water as it has a very fast JS engine and a decent DOM rendering engine.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] gottahavit:
Yes and APP can completely write it's own browser core, that's how Opera works. I just installed DHD 7 and can tell you it still uses the HC browser core. Main browsing performs identical to stock brwoser, and there are a couple telltale things you can see that tell you it's the stock HC browser.

1) As you scroll it paints in big square blocks. This is the biggest annoyance I have with the stock brwoser.

2) when you click a link you almost never get the selection rectangle around the link, the browser just starts loading the next page.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] zephiK:
I use Opera because it is the only browser without typing lag.

Dolphin Browser 7 is really good when its not used for typing.

The exclusivity is on Getjar and will probably be on the market sometime this week.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Drybonz:
Has Dolphin added an easy way to import bookmarks?

*edit* Tried version 7... it has a bookmark import option, which fails. Zero bookmarks imported.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] klau1:
Finally!! Thanks SOO much for the great explanation, I thought it was just me.

I'll be sticking with Stock til Opera implements what is referred to as "wide viewport"
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Spidey01:
<ot>

So it is just like the desktop version then?

</ot>
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Oilersfan:
I stopped using dolphin because hc stock is so good, especially how it syncs bookmarks with chrome on my laptop automatically
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Kermode:
Yeah zoom is NOT the same as bigger fonts, its a pity the children idiots who develop browsers still have perfect eyesight and so don't get it. By the time they get it they have probably been fired and new kids hired to take their place.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] PeQuEsan:
Good to know someone is able to use chrome syncing... I've never been able to make it work. It never syncs all of my chrome bookmarks... I'm using chromemarks till that's solved.

About the war stock vs opera... Opera scrolling has little less fps IMHO, but stock shows those ugly grey rectangles and it's a bit laggy...

Bye!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] CrazyPeter:
Yes it can, Opera, Firefox and NetFront on Android do exactly this. They don't replace system files, but they don't rely on the included browser either, they are complete standalone and full browsers with their own rendering engine, javascript engine and UI, however Opera is the only one to not suck badly by doing so.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mikelt89:
What opra do you use for the TF, opra mini or the regular one?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Spidey01:
Just to chime in for the value of non opera users out there:

Opera Mini = off loads most of the browser stuff proxy server.

Opera Mobile = standard Opera web browser.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] judasat:
i have set "FlexRoot Max Width" to 800 on the opera:config page and is good for me.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Susido:
Likewise. While I'm able to sync my Chrome bookmarks between all my desktop and laptop computers, I've never been able to get them to sync with the stock HC browser. I wonder what the secret is? Meanwhile I'll have to look into those "chromemarks".
[Eee Pad Transformer General] PeQuEsan:
Ok. Just FYI:

Chromemarks lite (free): You can't have same order for your bookmarks as in chrome:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.h.chromemarks.lite&feature=search_result

Chromemarks: You CAN have your bookmarks ordered same way as in your desktop chrome... Maybe there are other benefits, but that's the key one:

Woah! Just checked a massive batterydrain on my TF and Opera Browser was the bad guy. It was the most battery-consuming process during the last day. Anyone else noticed this?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Globespy:
Did you spend most of your time browsing? That might explain why. Just like if i spend hours listening to music, the music app will show as the biggest battery user :-D

---------- Post added at 02:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:10 PM ----------

and out of curiosity i tried dolphin v7. Very similar experience in terms of speed to standard browser....text input is still stuck in a time machine if your typingspeed usesmore than one finger at a time! :-)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gottahavit:
never had a problem, but maybe you left it on some flash intensive website? or some site that got stuck in a javascript loop. I do usually exit the browser regularly

---------- Post added at 09:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:11 PM ----------

As i said an app can have it's own full browser core and not use the one built into android, however it cant deliver a new core to the os, as in the ics core. Either way it's moot, DHD 7 uses the built in core. it's blatantly obvious when you use it.

I am having troubles with it. With the keyboard the enter seems to put in a space, and not enter in the search and address bar field. Anybody else run into this?

do you have a small loss of images quality when scrolling the page?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tekkitan:
Just tried Opera for the first time (at least since all that was available was Opera mini). I like the interface but seems to be buggy for me. For example, searching in Google brings up the list of common terms under the text box. When I hit search, the list box doesn't go away. Quite annoying if you ask me. Also saying there is "no typing lag" is a lie. True it is quite improved, but there is still a little lag.

Hi all,

Just wondering if people have comments with their successes with radios.

What baseband works best for you? I have N_01.77.33P and I feel I've had better performance with previous radios...

Thoughts? Thanks!
[Atrix 4G General] sky007:
I am look for better radio too.

I have same version radio after update to 2.3.4. But it drain battery faster. One charge can not hold a day.

Flash back to 1.77.30s, see what happen tomorrow.
[Atrix 4G General] sky007:
Two days till now with 1.77.30. Battery still have movr than 30% left.
[Atrix 4G General] IUH1991:
Yeah, .33p drains battery nicely and drops calls. It has the best data speeds though.
[Atrix 4G General] mobileweasel:
Well I am glad I didn't install the .33 radio. I am convinced that my poor battery life is caused by the radio. Currently, I am using the .30 radio and am not that impressed. Are there other radio's that are cm7 compatible ( are there even compatibility issues ?) ?
[Atrix 4G General] coolnow:
Do you guys know if Bell Radios are compatible with UK networks such as T-Mobile? Or is AT&T compatible with us? I don't know which one to flash and there's only 2 options, Bell or AT&T!
[Atrix 4G General] jodahall:
I have the N_01.77.15P radio on gingerbread and my battery life sucks. I charged it to 100% left if only turning it on twice throughout the day and my phone was dead in 15hours, when i actually use the phone (moderately) i get 4-5 hours, so i don't know if it's the radio that's the problem.

ps. i have a bell atrix on rogers, do not have any social networks, sync my email every hour automatically only have the moto weather widget on the phone and did many a factory reset before checking this....oh it's rooted and unlocked bootloader.
[Atrix 4G General] sky007:
Your phone same as my, my phone is a Bell Atrix running in Rogers. I tried different kind of ROM, but finally the radio version make huge different on battery life.

I think you should move to 1.77.30.

I recently got an offer from T-Mobile and I got a free gs2 should I Keep it or should I sell it to buy a Galaxy Nexus? Im also thinking of switching to a Nokia WP7 been a long time Nokia Fan hardware but I'm confused as hell what would you guys do?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dnlsmy:
Try it out, see if you like it. I tried it out at the store, but it felt too big. The Galaxy Nexus might be the same size, but I hated the resolution on the GS2. 480x800 spread out on a 4.5in screen is so ugly. It feels like I should be able to put so much more stuff on it, especially since I was coming from my loaner Sensation, which has a 4.3in qHD screen. I honestly see no reason to buy the GS2 over the G-Nex, unless price is a factor.

Former Nexus One owner.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pegasus912:
Galaxy nexus definitely. Nothing beats being the first (sometimes only for many months) to get OS updates. The HD resolution is a significant plus as well.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josemedina1983:
I actually used for a bit like 3 hrs I found it to be a great phone compared to my N1 but I felt like it was missing something I couldn't pointed out it felt so simple I think the hardware felt played out but I been spoiled by nice materials. as far as the price I think if its over 600 bucks is a no go for me is too much for a phone that might be old specs in the middle of 2012.

They haven't announced anything for US GSM carriers so I would think this will be at last a 2 month exclusivity. By then the source will be released so I doubt I would be able to buy a T-Mo version before trying ICS on my N1.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] addam360:
If you're not bothered about which carrier you're on then I would seriously consider a droid RAZR instead of either of those two. I know technically its worse than both but there's something really high quality in the feel of Moto's new UI that I just can't quite put my finger on and it wouldn't be a huge wait until ICS either (I think it'll probably get it before GSII). Anyway thats just my own humble opinion, consider or ignore it as you wish.:D

Also it's probably worth me pointing out that I do live in the UK so things like carrier decisions and multiple GSII variants simply are not a concern here. We have one GSII and its on every carrier. Nearly all phones here are on every carrier. Just thought I'd add that in there.
