Hi guys, this is my first report as I started using OmniRom a week ago.
I have a Galasy S3 i9300 and right now I'm with 4.4.2-20140312-i9300-NIGHTLY.
This bug report is about incognito mode in stock browser. When I try to use it, the browser forces close.
I've tryed to attach the debugger, but the phone hangs at the message as you can see in the image attached.
Thanks
Stock browser of omni has no option of incognito mode.

Why not? Is there any plans of using it? I still can access though the pie menu in stock browser.

AFAIK there is no such control in browser. But haven't used is much. If it is there, it should be removed.
It was Google's decision to abandon browser and opt for only chrome. It updated WebKit but didn't update browser to have its own incognito mode.

Is the browser on Gingerbread truly awful?
Im gonna agree. I have problems navigating back on all gb roms, sometimes it just locks up and refuses to do anything, other times it takes ages to load pages.
I've given up on it and use maxathon browser.
Would be nice if we could use the browser from 2.2

I really hate the default browser on gingerbread, I hate it so much that I went back to froyo because of that.
The part I do not like is where I can't scroll a long page all the way from top to bottom with only one swipe. Samsung for some reason copy that crappy iPhone thing to this phone.
the reason I keep using the default browser not 3rd party one is because it continue to load when the screen is off. Yes, I only have EDGE connection.

I've also had many problems with it before i went to CM7.
Why using default browser?
Dolphin works just fine.
I find dolphin quite slow tho.

Ok I recently tried going on to Louis Vuitton's website and it loaded the mobile site, I looked around for the desktop version button but it seams I'm stuck on the mobile site
So I was wandering if there is any user agent apps to change change the settings I know ics has a request desktop version button but untill then what's the solution?

You can change useragent in the stock browser by entering: about:useragent in the browser, but it will reset itself every time you exit the browser. You can also install Opera, Boat Browser or Dolphin (and many more) and set the user agent in the settings.

Thanks ill try that out, I prefer the original web browser, pretty weird they don't use chrome browser as default browser and you cannot import chrome settings and bookmarks from desktops

Hey I just checked and there is no, about option in the browser to switch the UA
Composed on my Samsung Galaxy Note using XDA Premium app
Do you type it into the adress field? if "about:useragent" doesn't work then try "config:useragent"
Well, in CM7 and Streak Froyo/GB it is "about: debug"
I just tried it and that brings up a ton of different options under more and settings... But no UA.
I use Dolphin for desktop mode... when I'm not running CM9 alpha.
Its about:useragent

Fyi.... ICS in fact does automatically syncs your chrome bookmarks and of course has request desktop site as a menu option.
Ok I'm sorry I didn't realise you have to type it in the address bar I thought it was in the settings but i got it figured, I just hope the ics would be worth the wait I mean comparing it to the ios 5 doesn't really seem that big of a deal, does have cool features but..... still lacks alot

Well we've all been waiting for it so here it is http://market.android.com/details?id=com.android.chrome
Has anybody tried Chrome beta on custom ICS roms? Mine, on ics-deck-inc alpha 5, force closes immediately after launching.

Can't get tilt scrolling to work. Anyone got it working?
Scrolling works fine here. But I can't get it to force show desktop versions of certain websites. It'll only show the mobile versions. Also, getting to bookmarks is a bit cumbersome as there are no quick controls as in the standard browser.
Don't expect flash to ever work. Read a FAQ somewhere that there are no plans.
Really wish you could set the us string. Scrolling is super fast.

I agree, it's very fast. Looks awesome on the Xoom. I'm fine without having flash, in fact, I haven't had flash installed for a long time and I've gotten along fine without it. I'll be glad to see some more features added to Chrome.
one thing I noticed (only compared one wiki page) is that chrome for android shows for text (about 2 extra lines) compared to default browser (on my xoom in landscape)
Not regular scrolling. There's supposed to be tilt scrolling where tilting your tablet up or down will scroll using the accelerometer . Also just found out about tab swiping. If you swipe your finger from the edge of the screen you can swipe between tabs. Awesome
Thought tilt scrolling was something different. Guess it doesn't work on tablet. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bzdcw6WSr8&feature=player_embedded
not available in my country
Could anyone upload an apk for this?
Thanks!
no flash
So how do I sync this up with my chrome browser with my desktop computer?

I've actually found that Chrome is much slower on my Xoom than the stock browser. Scrolling is rough and pages load quite slowly.

Works good on Eos 1.0.0. I don't really notice any improvement or slowness vs. the stock browser yet. Awesome to see a daily desktop application make its way over to the tablet though.
So, if chrome is just came out then technically what is the browser on the android os? I take it chrome will replace it in future releases?

The stock browser on Android has always been a separate app. Word on the street is that Chrome will replace the stock browser when it's out of beta, and the current browser will no longer be available in the open source Android os.

So sadly to hear that. Flash is still a huge number sites embed it. Hope they support Chrome in the nearest future when it become default browser of Android os
Anyone else having problems with the ics browser?. It crashes if you type in the browser adress, fast. If you type very slowly, it works.

Install chrome or dolphin. Why you still stuck on the stock browser?
I dont think it suck. I just think its bad it doesnt work. Had dolphin. Think stock is better. Chrome isnt available in norway.
But i love the ics! So smooth.

I've tested all these browsers completely.
The ICS+ browser on the market is really good in that it has a permanent desktop setting and some nice gestures.
The only two third party browsers that hold up ( in terms of downloading heavy sites fast) are boat browser mini, and Opera Mobile. Now havent done my 5site test ina while and things might have changed a bit but the other browser whilefeature friendly are just slightly slower...or more than slightly in some cases.
Nice! Thanks man.

I use the rocket rom ics. Any difference in the browser there, and the ics browser in marked? Or is it just the OS that is unstable? Or the rom?

Please post all questions in the Q&A section
Have to use 1 process in " process in background" settings. Then the ics browser wont crash

I asked this question in the Galaxy S2 forum when I had 1 of those phones and never got an answer.
Now I have a GalaxyNote I guess I'll ask again here lol
Does anyone know anything about flash player for the popup browser? Anyone know anything at all like if its even possible/its being worked on?
I'd love to watch live sports streams using it, that would be so cool!

What kind of rom you are using ? and what are things that you tried and didn't work ?
Popup browser does not seem to have flash enabled. May be the floating windows will work as an alternative for you.
