Dolphin Browser and Android Pro Widgets no longer working together - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

I was using these two apps just fine since the beginning of TFP but now I can't see any of my bookmarks when using the APW Bookmark widgets. It'll show stock browsers bookmarks but not Dolphin browser anymore.
Can anyone help me figure out a solution or should I email Dolphin browsers developer about this?

i'm experiencing the same thing and was about to post about it too would love an answer or alternate widget suggestion

Im guessing DB updated and changed something that doesnt make it as compatible. I wish I noticed it sooner so I could just roll back the updates. I use that widget alot >_> it's annoying now having to go into the browser now and pulling up the bookmarks lol
Lazyness at its finest.

Hi guys,
As I've written in the Android Pro Widgets thread,
Dolphin updated their application and one of the changes was blocking the access to bookmarks. What it means is no application except for official Dolphin apps can access the bookmarks list so it can no longer work with Android Pro Widgets.
We contacted Dolphin and hope to resolve this as soon as possible.
Please be patient

Thanks!!! Greatly appreciate you popping in and letting us know what's going on! Very much appreciate it.

Hi again,
As of now it seems like we won't be able to support Dolphin Browser anytime soon.
Per their request we implemented it as a separate Add-On a while ago. All left is for the apk to be signed by them like they did with other 3rd party Add-ons (and some cosmetic changes...).
Unfortunately they recently informed us they might not be able to support us (???) at this point. My attempts to explain it is already implemented have failed with no answer.
I didn't understand it at first until I saw their new bookmarks widget update today. I guess they thought they can do it on their own (You decide if they got it right).
Anyway, I tried my best and it really exhausted me so please understand why I'm giving up on that one.

[Q] Facebook places

Hi guys, done a search so don't think this has been asked before. Has anyone managed to get facebook places working reliably on the hd2? From my initial hunting around I've been trying various html5 enabled browsers with intermittent success. Any advice appreciated.

I'm sure I've read they have to support HTML5, so anybody know which ones do. HTML5 is very new and AFAIK there is no browser for WM with full HTML5 support, there may be some betas with partial support, they would need the geolocation part of HTML5 to be implemented. I'm about to try Iris now
maybe this'll help some of you (PM by Xenton; thanks!):
I couldn't post this as I'm new here and it has links so here ya go:
Right been at this most of the day now, the most promising course of action would be to google gears which adds geolocation functions to browsers. It only works with very specific browsers though, one being Opera Mobile 9.51 (Presto build 2.1.0+) it's available via Opera's FTP site at ftp://ftp.opera.com/pub/opera/winmobile/951b2 download "opera_v9.5beta2_gears.cab" and install launch the browser then goto gears.google.com and click install. It will prompt you to reboot your phone. Now relaunch the browser and navigate to touch.facebook.com try to use places, you should get a warning that your location information is being accessed via gears, click okay and you should be good to go.
I got as far as a suggested list of places for my location but nothing on the screen would respond.

It's been a while since I was trying to get this to working and I gave up, so this information may not be up to date but there were no apps that worked with places, the touch.facebook website did but needed a browser with HTML 5 support, I tried many browsers, finally a combination of browser and addon that should of worked but didn't. I think I'm correct in saying android and iPhone have browsers that work nicely wptg the Facebook touch site but WinMo has neither a browse nor an app that works wptg places. I did give up on this a while bin now, and would love for someone to tell me I'm wrong...
......EDIT: It works!!! I installed 4.1 from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6392459&postcount=2 (this is the page the download app button on their facebook page links to) and it prompted me to update to the latest version and then, places was working, just like that amazing, I'm well pleased. Also had a play with the latest better, kept freezing and crashing but it looks very promising, an awesome app!
yeah i was using it for places but now when i go to places it locks up
It's still working for me, try uninstalling and they reinstalling, that might fix it, it is a beta still and is not rock solid stability wise yet.

[Q] how do I email a website link?

Sorry in advance, but I bought a gtab for the wife, and although I'm an engineer with many years of experience with PC hw & sw, this android stuff is all new, and there's no user's manual that I can find, and I'm too old for this sh#t!
So anyway, every few days she comes up with something she easily does on the PC but can't do on the gtab running tnt lite.
Today's is that she wants to email a link to the website she's on to herself or others without copy and pasting to an email client, and I can't see, or find, any to do it.
Help, please. And anyone want to buy a slightly used gtab!?!? j/k; she does like it - but I don't need the aggravation!
Thanks for any help,
Robb

I don't know if this works on the TnT browser (I don't think it uses the stock Android Browser).
But on stock android browser, press 'menu', 'more', 'share page'
Thanks, but menu button seems to be dead while using the browser.
Lol I was trying to do the same thing earlier today and can't figure it out either My HTC evo all u do is hold down the website link and it will pop up share page or copy page URL. I have tried everything no luck
You could just load another browser??
Opera, firefox, dolphin, Xscope.
They all have their advantages.
Firefox mobile has a 'share page' option; thanks! 1 down, a few more to go. I do see there are printing apps I'll need to check out.

You can do it on Dolphin too if you want your browser to support flash.

I just got a Viewsonic Gtablet with Android OS 2.2 and Tap UI 1.1-3588.
From everything I've read I should install a ROM like Vegan but I read that a 'stable' release will be available soon, so I was kinda waiting for that since I am new to all of this.
For right now, I can open my web emails (hotmail & gmail) in the web browser but when I go to compose a new email message there is no option to add an attachment. How can I attach files to my emails?
Is this something that is fixed only by changing ROMs?
I apologise if this was already brought up but I did search.
Thanks
I know this doesn't answer your question, but how long are you prepared to wait for "soon"?
Well I only just got the tablet so I figured I could wait until August...keeping my fingers crossed that 'soon' will be by then.

If you're referring to Vegan Ginger, then I'm afraid you've been misinformed. Nvidea has not made drivers for the Tegra 2 (harmony) for gingerbread or honeycomb, nor have they announced any plans to do so. They've stated that they would support their device if the vendors request it, but as of yet, not a peep from VS.
Alternatively, I noticed that you mentioned the web versions of your e-mail providers...why not just use the e-mail/g-mail apps? I'm using Calkulin/Clemsyn, based on the stock TnT. I have my e-mail app set up for g-mail and hotmail as well.
Also, it may be the browser your using. try a different browser, or perhaps a different view of the browser (mobile vs. desktop) and see if it shows up.

[Q] Windows Live / MSN Messenger Support?

I know there's some lengthy workaround to the lack of live/msn support on the Touchpad, but it also seems pretty buggy. Is there a plugin available or client app at all?
Thanks!
I dont have a touchpad yet but if nothing else works you could a web app for it.
For example: http://imo.im

are you talking about the Jabber workaround? If my Gtalk worked I would use it.
The imo site it cool thanks LP.
[Q] Windows live messenger/MSN client or compatability
The default instant messenger client on the touchpad doesn't presently support WLM/MSN. Does anyone know of any plans to create a dedicated app or a plug in for the stock IM application?
I was going to ask the same thing. Seems like search isnt working, but someone mentioned there is hack to get it working. Just wish search was up! grr

seems a bit much for what its worth, but if youve got some free time
If nothing else works you could try install an msn program from UbuntuChroot?
[Q] can you get msn messenger on the touchpad ?
I see the likes of google, aol etc are there, but the most popular one isn't ?
anyway of adding msn messenger to the hp touchpad ?
the only way ive seen is to use the jabber work around, just google 'jabber touchpad' and it will come up, but you need linux to make it work it seems :/ other than that you could always just use ebuddy from the browser doesnt seem to have any discernible lag
Yeah the chat program is a little lame...no MSN or Facebook chat...and the facebook app doesn't include the chat feature...so have to use plain web browser.
Any update on this? I really need/require msn/windows live messenger support
There is a way to do it, when I have a little time I'll see if I can find the site with instructions.

[Q] Extract Android Chrome Bookmarks

Ok folks, this might seem like an odd request, and I hope I'm posting this in the right place...
Long story short, old laptop was fired up and Chrome sync'd and wrecked my bookmarks on my desktop PCs. The bookmarks on my Nexus in Chrome haven't sync'd up to the server yet and contain all the bookmarks I've lost. I'm looking for a way to extract them from my phone and try to port them back to my desktop.
ANY help would be appreciated. I'm running stock ICS, but I am unlocked and rooted.
I also have a Titanium Backup that should hopefully also contain a valid back up of the data.
I have been searching the web all morning and haven't found any suggestions on this yet.
Thanks in advance!
Try this app, it exports the bookmarks into a html file (it can be easily imported to Chrome ).
That's really cool, my only problem is it's looking at the default browser's bookmarks and not the Chrome bookmarks. LOL I don't see an option to change it.
Thanks.

Hmm... you're right
Are you sure that Chrome doesn't have an option to export the bookmarks? (Go to Bookmarks, and press the Menu button to check it )
Yes, sadly I have tried that a few different times. I also dug around in the file system to see if I could find the chrome settings but didn't have any luck.
That's weird, dude... i tried it right now, and I can see the Export option
At this point I have no more ideas (I'm assuming that you have searched in the internal memory)
You have an export option in chrome beta from your android device? I don't on my nexus. I did dig deeper into the titanium back up I pulled today and I found the bookmarks file! Now I need to get google sync to stop overwriting them! I'm trying to avoid deleting all my sync'd data in my google dashboard for chrome!
Yes, but I tried with a hacked version (I have an ARMv6 processor)... anyways, I'm glad that you found solution to your problem (you done the most difficult part )
Regards!
Hah, I think the most difficult part is yet to come. To convince google's servers that these are the bookmarks to propagate and not all the old ones that it keep's sync'ing in!
Thanks for your help.
