Dmarks in the market will sort your stock bookmarks.

---------- Post added at 11:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:44 PM ----------

I am running 1.0.1 from the market. There are references in this thread to beta versions 1.1.x. Are these more advanced versions? If so, how to get?
[Android Apps and Games] TZAR@:
Needs text reflow. It's the only reason I don't use your browser. Back to stock til you get it.
[Android Apps and Games] palmcrash:
+1 for this request. Trying to tap on edge buttons on some sites is maddening. Being able to select download folders would be another bonus.

Thanks again for this app. It not only beats the stock browser, but also Dolphin HD, Firefox, and Opera!

Btw, I actually prefer the current manual text reflow by zooming, then double-tapping.
[Android Apps and Games] simone87stilo:
This browser is very nice and complemeto. Thank you immensely!
[Android Apps and Games] letsgoflyers81:
Text does reflow. Pinch to zoom, then double tap the screen to reflow.
[Android Apps and Games] djmcnz:
Doesn't work consistently, covered extensively in this thread. Even if it did, the alternative is more useful for most.
[Android Apps and Games] XlAfbk:
Check out Quick ICS Browser. It also is a mod of the stock browser but with more features than this one. E.g. customizable quick controls.

On motorola xoom: sometimes sites takes to long to load, is this a known bug? When that occurs the browser lags. Ics with team eos 1.0.0 rom
[Android Apps and Games] blierp:
is it possible to integrate the stock browser's fast scroll option into ics browser +? I really like that feature
[Android Apps and Games] quentin0:
I guess I wasted my money on the donate version of this app since it has had 1 update and nothing new for months. The dev seems to have abandoned the project, or it takes months to update the app. Either way, moving to quick ics browser...released it well AFTER this app, yet still managed to get many more updates.
[Android Apps and Games] TexasBadger:
I like ICS Browser+, especially for its ability to make desktop display the permanent default. I do have one request, however. Like the stock ICS browser, it is very difficult to add new bookmarks if the quick controls are enabled. The star at the top left of the screen appears for only a couple of seconds, at most. Please create an easy way to add new bookmarks, preferably from the quick controls. Thanks in advance.
[Android Apps and Games] XlAfbk:
there's an add to bookmarks item in the menu
[Android Apps and Games] roobeyn:
Please attach an xda-thread-linker addon(optional install).

Im often looking up updates for diffrent threads on xda and it would be very nice if there was an addon witch could help me attach icons on the menu witch could directly link me to my suggested thread.

Would simply work as a link-icon addon too, just put in the link and add the button to menu or something including an option with different icons where you can add your (own made icons) and (already made icons by you developers) to the link-button.

btw, i LOVE your app!! thanks!! :D:D:D:D:D

Update!

Hey guys,

thanks for your support by buying the donate version. Finally an update. A big one! As of now I'm on it again.

Update v1.2 contains the following new features:

* Auto text reflow (automatically reflow text after pinch to zoom)

* quick control editor (customize quick control rings - up to 3 rings)

* new quick controls (Share page, Close Other Tabs, Find on Page, Add Bookmark and more)

* new swipe actions

* Fine tune quick controls behavior

* and more..
[Android Apps and Games] DrAk0H:
Feature request.

Could you add auto size option for quick controls like in Quick ICS Browser? Some times when quick controls are opened on the edge of the screen some quick buttons are hidden...
[Android Apps and Games] jwe222:
Browser constantly freezing since the upgrade. Sadly I have had to revert to the stock browser. Comments in the market suggest others are impacted also.
[Android Apps and Games] XlAfbk:
try Quick ICS Browser, it's got a pretty similar feature set. In fact i switched to that one as its development seemed more active and it had some nice stuff this one didn't have, but with the latest 1.2 release they're pretty much on par I guess.
[Android Apps and Games] appelflap:
Yeah saw that too. It seems to work on the majority of devices / roms. Anyway, I think I know what the problem could be. Will fix it asap.
[Android Apps and Games] jwe222:
Wierd....same problem with "quick" (which is now uninstalled as it does not have the home button). Thanks anyway
[Android Apps and Games] appelflap:
Are you running it on a Prime? If so, you didn't have this with the previous version?
[Android Apps and Games] jwe222:
Yes Prime. Your browser was a pleasure to use - seemed more stable than the stock browser although there was the ocassional reboot which i attributed to the prime setup rather than your app.
[Android Apps and Games] appelflap:
Prime is a difficult device :) I have one myself and I also have issues, while others don't seem to have issues. Overall the ICS version on the Prime isn't the most stable one yet. Still have all kind of issues with it. Nevertheless I'm eager to create a work around for it by compiling it differently.
[Android Apps and Games] vietnam100:
I collapsed on the browser to update to 1.2 seconds after a few more off. sensation with arhd 6.5.1.:mad:
[Android Apps and Games] appelflap:
Can you translate that back to German? :mad: :D
[Android Apps and Games] yareally:
I would love this browser forever if it had a speed dial like opera mobile and let you block third party cookies. The ability to do user css and user js per site would also be nice.
[Android Apps and Games] XlAfbk:
"Most visited sites" is a bit like speed dial.
[Android Apps and Games] rjax:
Another option, though only for a fresh start-up of the browser, is to grab QuickShortcutMaker (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sika524.android.quickshortcut) and make a shortcut from the ICS Browser+ activity subtitled "Bookmark" that has the activity ID ending browser.ShortcutActivity

This will start up ICS Browser+ on the regular bookmark page. Still not quite Speed Dial though.

EDIT: Or maybe not. It does take you to the bookmark page, but clicking on a bookmark just sends me back to the homescreen. Personally, I just use the bookmark widget, which accomplishes pretty much the same thing.
[Android Apps and Games] appelflap:
Update v1.2.1

New update

New:

* Add bookmark button to the navigator bar (optional, only phones)

* New Quick Controls: jump to top of page, jump to end of page, day/night toggle

* Nice little tweak: tap on the page icon on the navigation button will get you to the top of the page

* Option to show navigation bar when the quick controls are enabled

Bug fix:

Fixed the FC issue when disabling the second quick controls ring

The issue on the prime for some will be fixed later
[Android Apps and Games] XlAfbk:
is changing the quick controls toggle area size still planned?
[Android Apps and Games] rjax:
Happened last update. It's in the main Quick Controls settings.
[Android Apps and Games] XlAfbk:
oh, i missed that. installed the free version again to test it but i don't get any site content, just the background color. in tab management the thumbnails show content, but the browser doesn't :(
[Android Apps and Games] appelflap:
Which device are you using (and which ics version). Also, could you test some different sites with Wifi and 3g. Maybe you had a bad connection. Try to reinstall it, etc .. you know, everything that could help.

Cheers
[Android Apps and Games] XlAfbk:
cm9 build17 on galaxy s. other browsers were working fine at the same time and tab switcher showed the previews, also the background color changed, so the site did load. it just didn't display. cleared data, no difference.
[Android Apps and Games] appelflap:
Based on one test ? Maybe you can install it again and do some testing. I sent it around before release and it worked on every single test device .
[Android Apps and Games] XlAfbk:
well it's not like uninstall + install is any different from clear data. i guess if you want to call restarting the browser, testing whether other apps can connect, clearing data "one test" because it's on one device, ok... but i don't have more devices, so can't do "multiple tests".

but anyway, to fulfill your requirements i uninstalled, installed again from market, still the same.
[Android Apps and Games] MadJoe:
I noticed some one mentioned Quick ICS Browser, so I gave it a try, and I have to say ICS Browser+ kills it in my very unscientific tests. I have all three browsers installed, and a shortcut to each on my home screen, and counted after tapping each, and routinely ICS Browser+ opened the fastest of the three. By a couple seconds, so it's noticeable. I'm sticking with +.

Sent from my rough sketch of a Vibrant on a brick.
[Android Apps and Games] SirPrick:
This is hy far the best browser out there! I love the "toggle night and day" function awesome!
[Android Apps and Games] rjax:
The last couple updates have been fantastic!

I'll note that everything is working fine most of the time. But there have been a couple isolated instances where I've had nothing but a black or white background show up instead the actual web page.

And now that you have an excellent quick control customization in place, there are two more options I'd love to have for quick controls -- a new incognito tab quick control, and a notification bar toggle so I can quickly check time and other notifications then return to full screen.

I've also got a couple random thoughts on the actual pie operation and how the back (or forward) button works with it. Especially, since this is a browser, I find myself wanting to tap the back button multiple times in a row sometimes. So it'd be cool to see one or both of these features (or something similar):

1) Put in an option so that when the back (or forward) button is tapped, the pie control stays on the screen for a user-customizable time so that easily tapped again if desired. Maybe this would also make sense for some other buttons, but the back and forward button use cases seem by far the most logical.

2) A user-customizable long-press of the back button brings up the last 10 or so history items for the tab (or maybe the global history), ideally in a pop-up kind of like the settings menu does now. (That would mimic long-pressing the Android system back button, but be better since the history that comes up that way requires you to expand the day's history to see it and isn't tab specific.)
[Android Apps and Games] yareally:
Visited is okay and I can make due with it. I guess I just like having the control to change them over the automagic stuff.
[Android Apps and Games] 20hall:
How can i not use this when having a phone running ICS? :P

Thanks! Looks pretty sick x)
[Android Apps and Games] felix822:
Will this run on Gingerbread?
[Android Apps and Games] XlAfbk:
nope, requires the ICS stock browser.
[Android Apps and Games] Papun:
anyone can upload it on mediafare?

if i'll replace it with stock browser it will be work?
[Android Apps and Games] esoomenona:
Can you add the Jump to top and Jump to bottom to the gestures as well?
[Android Apps and Games] appelflap:
Great ideas. Thanks. I might solve this also in a different way by having a regular shortcut pane

With the new update the tabs at the top of the screen (on tablets) look weird. Was that a deliberate change?

---------- Post added at 09:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:37 PM ----------

Here's a screenshot.
[Android Apps and Games] RogerPodacter:
Not sure if this bug has been posted, but just in case. There is a bug with quick controls tab button when the tab button is on the second ring with the third outer ring enabled. When long press the tab quick control and attempt to slide over to open tabs to view/select a different tab, the touch event gets broken and you cannot scroll the other tabs or select them. They just disappear as soon as you slide your finger.

Hope this wasnt already posted. I love the above function but only use 2 rings for now because of it.
[Android Apps and Games] Col_UK:
Hey, just a few things sorry if they've already been posted....

Is it possible to add the scroll bar (grey box with up & down arrow) as its very useful for large web pages.

Could you explain the sensitivity for the gestures? I've tried them and it seems they either work or they don't.

Full screen mode doesn't work unless quick controls is enabled.

Rest seems good and smooth thanks :-)

Asus tranformer running ics.
[Android Apps and Games] orrebo:
I got FC when I try to start it.

I have a LG Optimus 2X and run android 4.0.3

[Android Apps and Games] zalitoh:
Is compatible with my Samsung galaxy S2 (android 2.3.4) ?
[Android Apps and Games] DarkwingDork:
Well done!

I fell in love with the stock ICS browser the first time I used it...became my favorite Android browser to date (until I found this one).

Works great on my OG Incredible running Abduction ICS 1.81.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] SilverHedgehog:
Please add a "keep in memory" feature to prevent the browser from getting killed while in the background... Having to reload tabs all the time really sucks..
[Android Apps and Games] momomok:
Found a bug... (the red icon)
[Android Apps and Games] Q2V:
Pls add option to show bookmarks as list, also option for change brightness
[Android Apps and Games] appelflap:
I've looked the screenshot but don't see anything weird.

Yep this is a bug. It can be fixed by moving the tab quick control to the outer ring when you have 3 rings enabled. Just a note: you can change the "width" of the rings. If you make the size smaller a third ring might be useful if you have a lot of quick controls enabled.

The sensibility is just relaxing or constraining the velocity parameter of a gesture.

Ya, might be a ROM problem. Maybe you can send in a report next time when it FCs. Please add a comment so I can track the source.

Yes if you install the new Android 4.0 firmware for the Galaxy S2 it will be fully compatible

On the list. :)

This is a known bug. Will be fixed in a next version

Good suggestions. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] SilverHedgehog:
Thank you thank you thank you for the memory feature

Just knowing that you will work on it makes me happy :-D

I've got a problem with this fantastic browser. Eg, if i'm in facebook app and i decide to open a link with ics browser plus, it crash! And if then i try to open it again it starts to not open and crashes.

I'm on i9000 with tsunamics
[Android Apps and Games] Libratech:
This browser support flash?

Edit: on my i5500 doesn`t support, but i like his design
[Android Apps and Games] dagnus:
FC on launch! Vivid, 4.0.3, sense 3.6

no idea why this is happening. thought it was due to me being on a lower density than stock, but it wasnt. app launches for the first time and attempts to log in and asks for access to things, and then after having everything allowed, it FC's. and then FC's on load, everytime.
[Android Apps and Games] El Norupz:
I got the same problem and have had it every single time since the last update, but I'm running cm9.

I would send in a report on fc, but I never have had the chance because fc warning disappears as quickly as it pop up and the whole process from pushing the button-to the browser tries to start but fc and disappears again happens in one second.
[Android Apps and Games] appelflap:
Could one of you guys send the log of this event using the "catlog" app on the market. It's a easy to use app. Just hit record in the app, reproduce the FC, go back to the app and send the log directly from the app itself to this email address: ----support at beansoftapps.com------ (without the ----s)

Or post the log here.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] appelflap:
Will look at this. Hope I can reproduce it.

Just install Adobe Flash from the market .

I've revised the screenshot - hopefully it makes sense.
[Android Apps and Games] kwhy:
you can modify the quick control dial in the setup configuration in the ICS Browser +. I just added the quick add bookmark star after the regular bookmark icon on the dial.

I almost missed this myself and was considering going back to honeycomb just because of this.

ps: you can also enable the navigation bar to show with quick fling down gesture which would allow you to hit the star.
[Android Apps and Games] brantje:
Order number: 1398508635352080

Really like your browser.

But you do you hide the tabs when quick controls are enabled?

Can you that an option whether they hidden or not.

Kind regards,

brantje
[Android Apps and Games] MaluNoPeleke:
Can you please add a setting to store an individual user agent string for specific websites?

That would be very nice because I like to visit some pages in the desktop version and some in the mobile version.

Another feature suggestion: optional - hide tab bar when scrolling and show it again at the top of a page or when you move your finger from the top of the screen to the bottom.

Thanks in advance!

Edit: Username and password import from the stock browser would also be very nice ;-)
[Android Apps and Games] masterslacker:
I've looked into this "bug", and I think it happened because the app author was trying to reduce the app size. On the market he claims that version 1.2.2 is 30% smaller. But really, how much does 800kb take up?

He took out the "drawable-mdpi" folder from the app resources, which included the images that some tablets use (like the xoom). So, with the folder missing, some devices default to using the "drawable-xhdpi" folder images, which are not the same. Specifically, the "browsertab_add.png" image is very different. In the original files it's the striped parallelogram shape we are used to seeing. In the xhdpi folder it's a solid trapezoid - which "squares off" the browser tabs, as you've circled in your diagram.

So long story short, I believe the "bug" with the browser tab can be fixed by putting those folders back into the app package.
[Android Apps and Games] barisko:
two questions:

1.

I can't seem to find the page icon on the navigation button...??

2. There are yellow arrows displayed when searching using the navigation bar (see screenshot). I clicked them, but they don't seem to do anything special. Where are they suppose to do?
[Android Apps and Games] GuestK00150:
hey!

I really like the browser and your efforts, hope you keep it up!

Can you please let us know what the base browser version is. Perhaps in the changelog. If it is stated somewhere please let me know. I searched the last pages and the OP but couldn`t find anything.

Is the base browser 4.0.4 already?

Bookmarks

Thanks for the work you put into this. As suggested before, re-arrangable bookmarks would be great, especially with the way new bookmarks are added to the top of the list instead of the bottom where they would normally go.

Another suggestion would be the ability to change the order of the open browser tabs like you can on a desktop browser.
[Android Apps and Games] MeX_DK:
Setting the UA string to desktop still renders mobile sites for me. Only way to solve this is toggle "request desktop site" on manually every every time :(.

Had a random thought about another possible gesture option -- let a gesture bring up the quick controls. Especially since the trigger area can be kind of difficult to activate when in landscape mode.

no i think u are dude,when u make a app it has to be all versions of android or nothing,and read other peoples reply,arggg anyway who cares
[Android Apps and Games] biggboii:
I have to agree with MeX... I personally like for my browser to be as close to an actual desktop experience as possible, and here, setting the UA to desktop still only formats your pages in mobile. And to have to set the checkbox each time is a real blower. Would love to use the browser to prevent using storage for an additional app that does the same thing but for now using Dolphin HD until the issue is resolved.
[Android Apps and Games] Michealtbh:
No, it doesn't. There are loads of apps on the store which are ONLY for ICS.

The thread title clearly states [App][4.0.1+] ICS Browser+ v1.2.2 (Update March 21)
[Android Apps and Games] resynx:
HA! If you truly believe this then you are going to be severely disappointed over... and over..... and over...... and over......
[Android Apps and Games] Braneless:
While everyone is entitled to their own opinion, you couldn't be more wrong about this. Many apps, such as Browser+, Chrome, Nova, etc utilize framework features that are available only in ICS - so it is not even possible to port to other versions. Same goes for some older apps which will never be compatible with ICS.

Suggestions: upgrade your rom or get over it.

Love it so far. I didn't read through all 43 some pages, so if this is answered sorry, but I really want to use the pinch to reformat text, but every time I try it, it goes back to page overview when I let go of pinching. I'm using it on a Galaxy S II (T989). Anyway to fix? This is the best feature I like to use. Been using Opera Mobile just for this feature, but would love to use this browser as my main one.

User Agent

Hi, Congratulations I like this browser, but,

Can you add an option in user agent for use a custom string in it or add I.E string?

I need use a web page, but it's only compatible with I.E and can't see it.

Thanks.
