First thing:
Music. Are there any music apps that are mainly targeted toward larger screens? I like the Honeycomb app, but the 3d Gallery+plus the accelerometer is really annoying haha.
Other thing:
Bookmarks. I am currently using Dolphin HD on my G-Tab (any other suggestions for tablet browsers?), the stock browser on my Nexus one, and Chrome on my laptop. What's your guys' opinions on the best way to sync all my bookmarks together?
For the bookmark sync i use phonemarks. I recommend it.
It says it syncs, but on my phone, I'm not seeing the bookmarks in my browser
Music aaps
Cubed is free and I love it.
Power amp is a music lovers dream
Awesome Soundboard and excellent album art FL. Costs 5 bucks.

I use Rewares's "Mybookmarks". Free in the market. And the stock browser, or Merian (sp) browser.

I like Dolphin HD. I can have it set to a desktop user agent, it can be set to not load flash elements automatically. You have to tap to load which I find nice. Tried Firefox but it felt a bit bloated. Opera Mini is nice when you aren't on wifi or 4G because it compresses pages for faster loading.
If you prefer the stock browser, give the app named "download all files". Just search the market.
File downloads in stock browser.
There is also an option under the setting of " astro file manager " to enable browser downloads in the stock browser.
I agree, I am loving Dolphin HD on the Bionic... I also use Lastpass & Xmarks to sync it with everything else I use.
On my Tab, I am still happy with the stock browser tho, sometimes I switch back to Dophin but waiting for the 'Pad' version to get the Lastpass & Xmarks plugins
What is the best browser for my new vivid?

Dolphin HD here.
I'm liking Dolphin, set to work as a desktop
I, too, use Opera Mini.
Either Dolphin HD or Firefox Beta, your call.

Dolphin for desktop browsing, Miren for something else

+1 for Dolphin too. I also use it on the iPad and it syncs favorites between them which is kind of handy.
Opera Mobile. Because the stock browser is junk.
I use Opera Mobile and Dolphin Browser HD.

Im loving Dolphin HD more now that it has an evernote extension!
I tried them all, by far the best and easiest to use has been the Boat browser. Once you go Boat, you never go back.
I use dolphin personally due to its stylish user interface and gesture support.

Can someone explain the benefits of using a browser other than stock? I surf the web a lot (2.5gig a month) on my phone and have always used the stick browser...?
i prefer opera mobile, but i might have to switch back to dolphin since they have an evernote add-on now.
I downloaded Opera Mobile from android market.
At least is not transfering so much data.
Quick and fast!
It's all good
Really a matter of preference.
However some might do specific tasks better than others. For example the other day I tried Dolphin, Opera, Firefox and the native browser during a flash stream of a basketball game. I was hooked up to my home wireless router.
I never did get the flash addon to work properly on Firefox. Opera and Dolphin opened the stream just fine, but the video was jerky and hard to watch.
By far the best video continuity was with the native browser.
But I still prefer Firefox for general web browsing.
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?

Opera mobile, for everything mobile.

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

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.

How come the Google sites and many other pages look so UGLY in Opera browsers? I can't believe why so many users are still using it. They look torn down version of the sites in other browsers, such as the stock browser, Dolphin and UC.
Google designs their stuff to only look good in chrome so they can spy more on your browsing when you use it.
