[Q] Default browser prompt - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello
I have more than one browser installed. I want to be able to use all of them, så I have not set a default one.
When I open the standard browser, each time I click a link I get a prompt for which browser I want to open the link with. Extremely annoying.
Is there any way to make the browser use the current session/app to open a link without the prompt?

Nobody gets this - or is there no solution?

The browser does that automaticly. You can set another browser as default but if you open the standard browser it opens the URL with it and not with the one set as default. The same with other browser like firefox, opera and dolpfin hd.

This is a pita - and I can't believe this is how it's supposed to work but thank you for your answer

Need help - annoying Dolphin Browser issue

I'm hoping someone can help me with an issue I'm having with Dolphin Browser (although I suspect it may also happen in the standard browser, although I've not tested this because I like using Dolphin).
It concerns the Facebook website.
Sometimes, (especially when clicking links from email notifications) Dolphin will send me to the Mobile version of the site, or the Touch version (which I think might be a Vodafone thing? My mobile network is Voda).
I want to be able to control which version of the site I use. 9 times out of 10 I want the full site, and very occasionally if I'm in an area with no 3G then I'd prefer the mobile site.
The only way I've found to ensure I get the full version is to set my User Agent in Dolphin as "desktop" - but this makes my Google homepage not fit on the screen.
Is there some way I can force Dolphin to always go to the full Facebook site, whilst keeping my user agent as "android"?
Or any other suggestions?
not that i know of. you basically have figured out the way to go to that website. its pretty easy just open facebook(which takes you to the mobile site) then just click the full site at the bottom. if thats too much of a hassle then use the desktop setting. and deal with google
edit : i just thought of something
try making your homepage setting the mobile google site
I hate Dolphin browser. Dolphin devs can you fix ?
Hello,
Here are the below annoying thing I hate about Dolphin browser.
1. Page reload Issue: I browse webpage ~ i receive an sms or i open some other app ~ i go back to dolphin AND F***ing DOLPHIN RELOADS WEBPAGE. It should not reload but it should b as it is when i visit another app and come back to Dolphin.
2. Worst mobile mode ever. Please make mobile mode like UC Browser's. No difference between normal mode and desktop mode--Compare this page (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1940392) with UC browser, UC is better than Dolphin. Even if you zoom the page in UC browser, its text gets adjusted in the screen and in Dolphin, the text doesn't fit.
3. In last few new versions, there is problem with downloading. I'm using UC browser and its downloading fine with UC browser.
4. Y the f**k the 6th item from the link below is not being downloaded? download hangz up in middle (see the attached picture). I've finally downloaded with UC browser

Hi,buddy. Why not send an email to [email protected] and wait for their reply? Personally, I still think Dolphin is better.

Dude don't you think i wrote them. I wrote them many times. They don't want to improve so ended up writing here. UC Browser is much better (the functionality) Dolphin is good feature wise. More features.

Default browser to always show desktop version?

So I have the default browser on froyo and have changed the browser to desktop viewing in the "about: debug" setting but I occasionally still get mobile sites, is there a way to make the default browser always treat itself like a desktop? One example that does this is gametrailers.com. I really like the default browser and would prefer not to change browsers,i am also not rooted.

[Q] Default browser question

I have the i896 and when I first got it, I installed Opera Mini right away. but I prefer stock browser to be the default.
What I find now is that when I click on a link on the default browser (any link), it will ask me to choose (complete action using...) between stock browser and opera mini. I set the stock browser as default and goes on... However, when I click on a different link on the default browser, it will ask me to choose (browser vs opera mini) again!!! It's really annnoying. Does anyone have similar problem?
Just uninstall it. What is your name acronym for? In the States, KKK is no laughing matter.
It'll stop asking you.
It goes once per category and there are a few of them.

TNT 3.1.0 Dolphin HD shortcuts open in regular browser

Hi Guys,
I just flashed the tablet to TNT 3.1.0 along with LaunchPro. I installed Dolphin Browser. When I put a shortcut to URL on the Home from the dolphin browser, It launches the page in the stock browser. Sometimes it opens a blank stock browser window and it loads the page in Dolphin. I cant figure out if there is a pattern to when it does this.
Any suggestions to open URL shortcuts to open in Dolphin?
When it goes to a browser don't you get a popupp asking to select which browser to use?
That popular should Java a checkbox, and if you check that, it should use the selected browser as the default browser.

It does the first time if I clear the Dolphins "Use Default" option from ManageApps. After the first time it still starts stock browser.
I am using MgeekBookMark as the shortcut type. Should I be using something else?
Samething happens in ADW and Stock Launcher as well.
Something with MgeekBookMark fires up the stock browser
I fixed it. I had to go SYSTEM APP MANAGEMENT and clear the Default from WEB application.

Go to settings/apps/all apps, scroll to the stock browser, click on it, scroll down and clear defaults. Back out of settings, go to your app drawer, click on the desire browser, a pop up window will pop up asking which browser you want to use and will also have check box asking you to either set that one browser as default or to always open that one browser. Check the box and choose the browser you want as default and you're done.
By the way, this better be for the Htc One.
