Most advisable browser for DHD

hey mates,
i'm looking for the "best" browser for my dhd.
there are so much out there, that i cannot decide
firefox mobile, opera mobile/mini, skyfire, dolphin hd,...?
which one do you recommend? flash support would be nice.

Firefox is good

dolphin is excellent

I've tried all of them. My best experience is with SkyFire for watching flash. Firefox always crashes, dolphin lagged out so much once that I had to remove the battery, Opera as you know has no flash but is extremely fast for non-flash. But in the end they all have their pros and cons which is why I have all of them
I've heard good stuff about miren browser, havent tried it though :/

thanks...
as i guessed, the opinion here around is also splitted
yeah...i think a combo of skyfire and opera does it best...
lets see

Haha... Still using the default one.

yeah but i doesnt like the w'n'w logo because mine is tmobile branded
nope its not bad, but i thought there are better ones out there

Dolphin is by far the best browser ! Hands down. I've tried them ALL: Opera (bugs), Firefox (I'm a BIG Firefox fan for the pc but on the DHD it's just unresponsive & slow), Skyfire is also just ok nothing special.... Ur best bet is Dolphin HD... Gluck....

I'm a big fan of Dolphin HD as well. Its got some really handy addons which are nice to have sitting in your toolbar. I personally never suffered from any lag with this browser on this phone or my previous Nexus One.

xScope 6 is not bad and supports flash.

Am i the only one that thinks the stock browser is good? I've tried Miren and Dolphin HD, but i don't like them. Feels kinda slow. Also on WiFi (20 mbps down 10 mbps up)

downloading flash
anyone found an ad-on for any of the browsers which enables you to save/download flash videos? Have been looking but come up with nothing

I actually quite like the stick and watch some pretty intensive flash videos on it without a problem. The one problem they all have is that if you're watching a flash video and decide to try and go back,. You have to press the back button at least 3 or 4 times :/

I'm using the stock browser and its fast. Flash is not a problem. I've used Dolphin HD as well and I must say its basically the same as stock cos its base on the stock browser.

Yes but i have noticed on Dolphin. there is no option to switch from mobile version sites to fulll sites. whereas with the stock broswer i just untick enable mobile view. this alows me to go to sites e.g dailymotion and watch videos as if it was the full site and just maximise the videos. LOVE STOCK browser. lol

iv tried em all and stock browser wins hands down

Dolphin does the switch with an addon which isn't installed by default.

Does it have the option to remember which sites you want to view in mobile mode and which you want in desktop mode? That's the only thing that's missing in the stock browser . I want to view the news sites in mobile mode, but southparkstudios' mobile version doesn't have the full episodes .

Oh right. Which add-on

browser

what seems to be the most popular browser being used with a rooted nook?
got a favorite, lets here it
I am using the stock and Skyfire

I use Stock and Opera Mini

Dolphin browser HD with the user agent set to desktop.
I'm running CM7 r17.

Miren has been the best in my experience. It's got a great UI, it's very speedy, renders pages very well (with modes that display full pages on the screen very well), and has loads of options.
Also, I was experiencing a bug where every browser crashed to the homescreen when I tried to visit an htpps: page. Miren does not do this at all.

What he said.

I use XScope.
The latest version of the program has fixed the issue of white text on white background in the pop up menus.

This is why I love Android. Ask this question in an iPhone forum and see what you get. Safari or Opera. Choose wins!

Too bad the market says it's not compatible for me

I have give a try to xscope!
Currently i'm using Miren and it's pretty fast, the ui is great to!

I am using xscope pro. I gave dolphin hd a chance for 2 days but couldn't stand how it rendered pages no matter what my settings were... Especially how it rendered reddit. I do love how dolphin does the bookmarks though.

I will give these a try, wow so many options...lol

I am trying Boat Browser, it seems to fill my needs, but the only one that seems to show favacons it the stock browser

[Q] What browser do you use?

I'm running CM7. I just opened the News and Weather app and went to browse a story, and the page scrolling was a bit jumpy. Presume it would have opened the stock browser. What browser do all of you use?

I use Dolphin HD and Skyfire

Dolphin HD

Was using Opera for an age. Just now trying Dolphin HD. To be honest not that impressed so might switch back

Stock browser.

Stock one and opera really fast opera!

Stock browser works well. I tried Firefox (a lot of memory), Dolphin HD (the best alternative), Miren browser (very fast browser) and Opera (I don't like its UI).

Dolphin HD, best browser in my opinion!

Opera a real browser

i have used opera since the moment i started using internet, so yeah, opera ftw

Im using stock browser at the moment but I intend to go back to Opera once I have stopped messing with my phone.
I think its always good to have opera installed just incase you havent got much signal as it loads pages super fast.

I use Boat Browser Mini, it's really realy fast and simple

Stock browser is ok, but I wasn't quite satisfied myself.
So tried Dolphin HD, wasn't really impressed, can't see what other people find so great about it.
Now using Opera, works the best so far. It's a bit too much of a memory hog for my liking, but overall I'm much happier with it.

i use dolphin HD and opera browser, since my stock browser always suddenly close with no error or force close especially when open the site which has many flash player

Been using Dolphin HD and Skyfire until I discovered Opera Mobile which is significantly faster in scrolling and zooming.

Dolphin browser HD, and Opera

use dolphin browser hd for viewing flash stuff youtube ect, firefox for downloading pron and opera mini if i need to save data.

Dolphin hd because of his great extensions...but opera mobile is better in smoothness

What is the best browser for the Note?

Im trying to find out if there is a browser that can compare with the stock browser in terms of speed. Ive found the stock browser to be lightning quick but it has two problems: it doesnt seem to resize text to fit the screen when you zoom and access to bookmarks is at the top of the screen (big deal for me considering the sizs of the note's screen). I used to use dolphin hd because i loved the quick access to my bookmarks, but there is a noticable lag when scrolling and resizing pages. Does anyone have any suggestions for a browser with the lightning speed but better browser access?

I might be being too picky, but even opera has a slight lag in scrolling compared to stock.

Try Dolphin browser HD..

I tried dolphin hd and it just lags too much when scrolling. I think im going to use opera as was suggested. It seems to move the fastest and allows you to get to bookmarks quickly.

Boat Browser and Opera Mobile

Stock browser, its the only one that runs on HW accel, best for battery life and performance. Other browsers only offer better functionality at the cost of battery life.

Dolphin HD is the best in speed, battery and marks

Netfront life is very fast and not draining battery as opera or dolphin does.

I keep swapping between boat browser and stock browser.
I think I may just swap back to stock....

personally i use dophin browser hd

Im using opera and it works really well for general surfing. Resizes text right and has a setting for useragent in the menu.
But it has trouble with flash games on mine, mainly games on facebook which are quite large. the stock browser used to play them really well but i cant even get that to work anymore it just locks up when its trying to load the start page.

Try boat browser

Opera Mobile for me. It makes web browsing 10X better than any other browser I've tried, and I've tried a lot. It's just soooo good with text reflow and centering when zooming! With opera I can effortlessly browse the web, but with all other browsers I have to constantly adjust the screen to have the text readable and all in the right place.

Boat browser

Sometimes I dont know why people say Opera is fast, all of my experience in Opera was quite slow, even stock browser feel faster. Tested this on my htc legend, sgs2 and note. Maybe its just me .
By far I found dophin HD the best for me. Function wise and speed wise.

browser wars

hey guys,
im on the lookout for a nice browser
which one you like most ? i personally like the stock one in tablet mode, but it fails to load some webpages properly ... havent found anything with good functionality/speed/smoothness compromise yet. chrome is nice, but it needs soooo much ram, cant even have 3 tabs open without having to reload them after switching.. awful.
i was hoping ucbrowser would answer my call, but something peculiar happened, i tried the tablet version first, just out of curiosity and it worked great, fast quite smooth with occasional hiccups. but the phone version was just horrible, lagged like i was running it on a single core 600mhz cpu. just pathetic... anyone know what the deal is with that ?
cheers

Naked browser
dolphin but now has some bugs, Opera......

the hemelywo
Chrome or Opera mini

Im using chrome, just becouse its syncing with my pc, but to be honest, the stock browser is my second best one!

thanks, ill try the naked browser
i didnt like to browse forums with chrome, the text is uneven, eg posts are displayed in a much larger font than the quotes in the same posts, so constant zooming is needed if you want to read the quote. bs..

browser
Chrome and Opera

I'am using this amazing browser named Puffin Browser and it's blowing my mind atm with its lightning speed!

I use "Lightning Browser"! It's just incredibly more fast than Chrome and than all browsers i used

I like AOSP/CM stock browser on kitkat. Puffin is fast indeed but that's it. I also use Opera mini for its great rss support.
