[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] appelflap:
I'm working on a ICS stock browser enhancement for ICS phones, but now ICS is also available on the tablet I like to make some adjustments for it too.

The browser can be downloaded here: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.beansoft.browserplus

Features implemented yet that are relevant for the tablet also:

+ setting of the User Agent string is implemented in tablet mode. (When setting the ua string to "desktop" notice that one always can request a mobile version of a page by unchecking the option request desktop site)

+ home button on the action bar

+ gestures: swipe left and right to do certain user definable actions

I will work heavily on the browser in the near future. Any suggestions, requests (concerning the tablet mode) etc are highly appreciated.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ravizzle:
Nice app, liking it so far

Requests for the future:

a dedicated home button would be awesome

a speed dial type home page option (like opera)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] appelflap:
Like the speed dial home page idea. Btw do you mean a dedicated home button in the quick controls?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] timgt:
I second the home button, I think he meant a button near the back and reload buttons up top
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ravizzle:
yea i mean by the back controls and stuff at the top
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ravizzle:
Hold up? u also the dev for thumb keyboard! that has to be my fav app for this tab! makes typing so much easier . u are the man!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chin_a_ling:
Can you also find a way to permanently switch from mobile view webpage to Desktop view pages
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] geinome:
Its already possible at the moment:

"possibility to set the User Agent string . "

Taken from the market text. I use this on my DHD on ICS beta and its pretty handy.

*feature request*

maybe having a dedicated settings page could be handy.

Something like what dolphin does, could be pretty useful.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ravizzle:
ok heres another request:

An option to specify what folder downloads go to.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] appelflap:
Good one! The home button is implemented in the latest version. I also added gesture support. Very comfortable on a tablet.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gaetawoo:
how do you pay for the "pro" version?

also, are we still going to get text reflow on zoom, double tap and pinch? because if i have Auto-fit Pages (in advanced options) selected, it is autofit for zoom already even if i haven't zoomed in. it doesn't ever change. if it is not selected, then it is fill for the full screen view but never reflows whether i pinch or double tap. I can't find or change anything in the settings to change this. it either is formated for the zoomed in version, or formated for the zoomed out version, but not depending on zoom.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dandmcd:
Thanks you for this app, not having an option to set all webpages to the Desktop version was really irritating. I also like the addition of the home screen button and basic gestures!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] colbyb25:
Any way to get settings that you change in the debuging menu to stick. When the browser is closed, they rest until you open the debugging menu again. I prefer to disable the "use wide viewing" setting but hate having to continue to enter "about:debug" just to get it to work everytime I open the browser.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fuzzer:
Love it...thank you for the awesome job...

My suggestion...option to open new tab in background....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] stereotada:
Love this browser, i've been using it since the update. One suggestion though.

When you go to menu via quick controls, you get the very low res yellow circle indicator. It kinda bothers me and i hope you can just make the selection highlighted with the ics colors.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] silverwings2008:
+1 for open new tabs in background
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] FunkyMcBain:
Dude, awesome
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] RamAir02:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] FunkyMcBain:
Seem to have issues saving images by just long pressing and saying save image
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fuzzer:
Nevermind...found it...settings, advanced....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] atgmartin:
Really good browser, nice job.

Suggestion: in the new stock browser, when you scroll up, the navigation bar briefly appears, allowing easy access to the bookmarks and home icons even from the bottom of the page. That was one of my favorite parts of the stock browser, any chance of getting that in ICS Browser +? Also, the quick-scroll feature that appears when scrolling allowing you to quickly drag the scroll bar.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jamur87:
Great job with the browser. One suggestion, would it be possible to be able to import bookmarks from other browsers like opera or dolphin?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] appelflap:
I accidentally disabled this feature in the last version. I will fix it in the next version.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vgjfelix:
Hi,

I too have mostly migrated to your browser. Generally working fine but a bug I have found is that BBC iplayer doesn't work that well. It seems to blur when trying to set to full screen. Also when you finish watching a program it seems to crash the browser as it won't load any pages (blue bar goes about an eight and stops, does nothing). To fix this I have to force close the app.

I echo what other people have said too: speed dial favourite links buttons on new tab rather than home page.

Excellent job though.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] murgo:
great browser! however, the swipe gestures stop working for me everytime i change the tab. when i open a new tab, they only work in that specific tab and as soon as i switch to another one, the gestures stop working again :(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] appelflap:
Thanks for this feedback. This is fixed in version 1.0.1
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] appelflap:
Update 1.0.1

V 1.0.1

bug fix:

* phone + tablet: show URL bar again after short flick down (when quick controls are not activated)

* tablet: keep gestures active when switching tabs
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] murgo:
that was fast, thank you! gestures now work perfectly fine :)

now if you could include a quick scroll bar like asus did in the stock browser, it would be perfect!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hollywould:
Can someone please help. I'm getting a "Your device isn't compatible with this Item Message." I really want to get this awesome looking app, but I can't for some reason. Please Help.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hollywould:
No one? Really no help. Can someone please upload the APK at least? Thanks for any help.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] js931:
Great app!

I have one request: When pressing the back button on a tab with no prior page, the whole browser closes. Could you maybe let it switch back to the previous tab instead?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jedi5diah:
Thank Jesus this app saved Prime from a total embarrassment , the stock browser is really unstable!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Flip35:
dam i had scrolled by this thread so many times and finally decided to give it a shot, and dam i wish i would have done it sooner, pretty slick, nice job, maybe in the future if something could b added, i would suggest if we could use the extra control buttons alone with the stock tabs fr asus, i notice when i use the control buttons i get a full screen mode and i lose the tabs style, and i like the tabs style but i like the control buttons more if i had to choose, thanx
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Dakey:
So far so good...

Really enjoy your work on the browser and may I you suggest you to add an "open a new tab" for the gestures actions list.

For me swipe left is going back and I think that swipe right coud be for open a new tab...

Thank you anyway for your work

Dakey
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] g1xx3r:
Thanks for the time and effort you put in this.I glossed over this thread a few times and finally read through and tried it..Awesome!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Snow02:
I love the quick controls and this extends them nicely. Thanks.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vgjfelix:
Could we have the option to have quick controls but keep the address bar and such too?

Felix
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hollywould:
Finally got it working. It's great browser. I was wondering if it's possible to enable to large scroll bar on the side for faster scrolling, like on the stock browser? If you could add that in this browser would be perfect. Thanks.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] yumms:
I would like option too.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] avlon:
Is there anything that can be done in this browser to prevent the long delay when first loading a webpage like on the original browser?

For instance... you go on androidcentral, or engadget and you see the blue bar on top loading the page. About 5/8ths of the way in...the whole browser freezes while it loads that last bit of the page and freezes the entire tablet with it.

Happens with the stock browser and yet not Opera.

Thank you for all your hard work!!!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nevetsvsx:
amazing!

Thank you! The stock browser definitely needed your help. Well done :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 2fastkuztoms:
this is the only thing that bothers me, always used opera until found this browser, its great. Thanks OP.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] unknown_owner:
It's great ty.

Suggestion : I find the stock browser worked well after going to about:debug nit necessary doing anything in there, just by going to about:debug. Can you make a settings that would keep the settings of going to about:debug active everytime you open the browser

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] huynhc:
I agree...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] appelflap:
Optimization is definitely something that has my attention.

I'm not sure if I understand you. Do you want an option to open the debug settings?

I agree that this was a very handy feature. I've already added it to the todo list. :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] avlon:
Just wanted to give a heads up.

With yesterdays new adobe flash update. It seems to have shortened the load delay quite a bit.

It's not totally gone yet, but it's definitely better.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rynowhi:
Besides quick scroll and browser optimization, here are things I would like:

On a bookmark, have an area that could be selected to launch in a new tab without the long press, but still be able to select for the current tab. Maybe a little ± in the top right of the window?

Bottom and top of the page buttons in quick controls.

Love your work so far.

---------- Post added at 04:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:07 PM ----------

One more, I would love a little more organizing ability in the bookmarks. Maybe also being able to save certain images as the picture shown on the bookmark page instead of always updating.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] franky_402:
+1000. For start page like opera its the main reason I keep going back to it, but would prefer something more stock like this.....downloading now and testing it out

Concern:

I have never had my gmail account hacked before. Shortly after first using Browser + my account shutdown and I had outgoing emails I was not sending.

This was the last program I gave access to my gmail info before the compromise and it was over my tablet. Not sure if its what caused it but seems likely. Just thought I would let people know
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Pizza4Breakfast:
I have a similar issue. I am not saying this is the apps fault necessarily and may just be a coincidence but shortly after I installed ICS Browser+ and used Google Checkout to buy something(in which I allowed the browser access to auto login to my account), my Prime constantly says my password is wrong and I have to relogin. And I am also getting spam now, which I have never gotten the entire time I have had this GMail account. Again, not saying it's the app's fault but it's still really weird.

Sent for my Transformed Transformer Prime :>
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] appelflap:
Sorry to hear this. I understand the concern, but there's really nothing in the app that could have caused this. I will see how I can restrict the permissions for a alternative version.

Btw try to login with the mobile version of the Checkout page (uncheck "request desktop site")

Again, this app is completely safe. It is as least as safe as a custom rom of course.

Just to make sure, did you download the app following the link in the first post or did you get it from elsewhere.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] appelflap:
There's absolutely nothing that could have caused this. It is not likely at all. But then again, how could I refute this weird observation. Please back up your observations. Now, it is like asking the question: "do you beat your wife?" This question can't be answered without reinforcing the question.

I think it is pretty offensive what you're saying here. Absurd.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ravizzle:
This app is perfectly safe idk what caused your problems but my gmail is perfectly safe

The only addition i would like is a quicker way to change user agent. Like a button on the main bar or a gesture. Otherwise this is a great browser.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] g1xx3r:
I've been using your browser for about a week now and absolutely love it. However, after about an hour or so it stops working. When loading a page, the blue bar moves about an inch then stops. Loading the stock browser works fine. Your browser works again only after I reboot the tablet. Any suggestions?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hollywould:
Forgive me if this has been answered already, but is there a way to make this browser open when I hit the internet button on the keyboard dock, instead of the stock browser? Thanks, and loving this app.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lucky13th:
I tried your browser a few days ago, and like the stock browser, it seems to be unable to download files from my University's website right. Whenever I do, files comes up as "=" or "=-1", "=-2", "=-3" and so on. The file has really download at all. Just some constant size file appearing in my download folder. Is this a known issue?

Otherwise it was really nice, responsive, and quick.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] eraursls1984:
It would be nice to be able to have this even when quick controls are activated.

Try the most visited sites homepage.

It would. Also be nice to have links set to open in a new tab

Also the ability to turn on/off tab bar scroll (so it would scroll with the page like dolphin HD if turned on)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Magnesus:
What I would like from a browser is ADBLOCK. Really, some Polish sites are unusable without adblock and I don't want to block ads in the whole system (because I want to see admob ads for several reasons - supporting the developers and seeing if mine own work :) ). If you don't believe that adblock is a must - try browsing (quite good page apart from that) - http://hatak.pl on your Transformer without any AdFree etc. :)

Help plz :o3

Hi guys, I am new to this forum and I want the "ICS Browser +" app but my android market does`n recognize the app, i mean my device is not compatible with this app. Just attached the apk file for me plz :(:confused:

Thx anticipated, and sorry for my english.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mattsday:
Love the browser.

A small feature I'd like to see added though is DuckDuckGo as a search provider option. That would be very nice :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] unknown_owner:
What I mean is that browsing seems to be better after just going to about:debug. I know all it does is enable the debug options, but for some reason it makes the browser operate better. We found this out in the original Transformer with the stock HC browser when it first came out. So can you add an option/setting to load the debug options by default.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] anthonyalberto:
Cool that's my new default browser! I tried xscope browser and this is the fastest browser i found so far. It says it uses hardware acceleration maybe this is why?

Anyway if i could have a browser with the speed of xscope and the look of the stock browser, it would be great !

Great job :)

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Maveri9720:
Along with everyone else, I love this browser. Kudos to a job well done.

The only thing I would ask for is bookmark management. I have quite a few bookmarked sites and I'd love to have the option to move them around and group the same ones next to each other. Makes it much easier to find what bookmarks I'm looking for if I could move them around.

Other than that, awesome job on the browser. Big hit!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] m4alkor13:

ersgreat browser, feature suggestion

Hey there,

This is a great browser! I use it as my default browser on my TFP :)

I have a feature request. I think it would be great to be able to have certain shortcuts added for functionality. Ie ctrl shift t would open up the last closed tab (if the browser is capable of this), and ctrl q would close the current tab. ctrl 5 could reload the current browser tab.

those are primarily the main shortcuts I use and it would be super helpful if we could get those in browser+ :)

also one last thought, it would be great to be able to delete words via ctrl backspace. This doesn't seem to work throughout the system so idk if it's possible to implement it here.

Thanks again for the great product and sorry if someone else already requested this...searching from my tfp sucks lol

EDIT: Just realized that ctrl w closes the current tab. genius...anyways

I've also been having an issue where clicking a link opens it in a new tab. This is super frustrating and has happened for the past couple hours. Hasn't ever happened before. Restart fixed it, for a while. Happens when docked or undocked. Keyboard is set to Android English (works with my dock, no issues). Also tried wiping data and cache. Thoughts?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] agentdr8:
Awesome browser! Aside from the scroll handle and other optimizations, would it be entirely impossible to integrate either Firefox's Sync or Chrome Sync for bookmarks/etc?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] r0ark:
Feature request: automatic text reflow after pinch zoom. I know that it's possible now, but you have to double tap on a block of text. I used to have an adroid phone running cyanogen mod ROM that had auto text reflow.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nhshah7:
Any idea what may be causing this - or if anyone else has had this issue as well? Thanks :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rynowhi:
This happens for me whenever I use cntrl T to open a new tab. Every link clicked after that will open the link in a new tab. If I use cntrl W on any tab thereafter, it stops opening in a new tab. HTH.

Ok was encountering this problem too,will try the ctrl+w to fix it next time thx !

Trying to add a Facebook account to sync my info with my contacts. Why I go to add the account, the screen just blinks and takes me back to the accounts screen. It wont let me add it. I did it once when the Facebook app asked me if I wanted to, but cannot figure out how to get that option again on the facebook app.

I just rooted my phone and did not apply a custom rom or anything.

You can't add a Facebook account through accounts and sync.. it isn't built in unless you install a rom that has it enabled.

Google has removed facebook sync so the only way to get it back is through a custom rom now.
