Using dolphin hd working better then the stock

I use opera. Speedy and good support for flash.
I use Google chrome
I switch between Dolphin HD and Chrome. Both are better than stock IMHO, but each has a few small failings which necessitates both being used.

I've tried Dolphin HD, Chrome, Opera, and the stock. I find myself switching around, but lately I've been using opera, I find it more finger "friendly". the other browser switching tabs is a pain with my fingers, with opera the layout much better.
Dolphin hd

I find dolphin the best. The ics stock browser is good too, In my opinion better than both chrome or opera for this device.

I use stock but I hear there's better. What's best browser for the atrix
Sent from Atrix ;-)
Dolphin Browser HD (spring for the license, or find it on the web). Some good add-ons for it too. Use desktop mode.
I really want to like Firefox Mobile, as I am a big Firefox fan, but the current beta just isn't all that. DolphinHD is pretty awesome for the Atrix.
Dolphin here as well. Faster and better than the sticker. I also have skyfire, but haven't played with it much. Used to use it on my iphone to play some flash videos.
Dolphin HD works slower than the Firefox beta for me.
I use Miren.

Dolphin HD. Also Opera Mini when only edge available.

dolphin hd is slower than stock, but allows you to go to desktop sites by default if you configure it. No matter how many times you try, frequently the stock browser will not allow you to go to desktop sites.
The smoothest browser in terms of navigating a webpage is opera mobile 10 hands down (not mini). pinch to zoom is really smooth compared to any other android browser. too bad it doesn't work on the atrix yet and no flash support.

I like dolphin because it allows me to watch Hulu on my phone (after some slight modification of course). For general surfing and especially if you have a non-unlimited plan I would use Opera. It's faster and compresses stuff you have less data usage.

Agreed... I think a lot of people haven't tried/heard of it, but it's beyond solid.
I like dolphin mini or mobile. Works prefect and it's faster than stock and dolphin hd
Xda app via atrix
Best Browser
I have tried them all except that miren one you guys are talking about, I will give it a shot however If you haven't tried Xscope 6 then your missing out. Ive been sing it for months now. Its great. Its very lite and fast. you have nothing to lose by trying it.
OK well I just installed Miren after i made this post and I gotta say its a fantastic browser, Ive only been using it for a few minutes so I cant say I like it better than Xscope yet but I will give it more time.
Miren is really good. Just checked it out, and it is perfect.
Currently using:
-Miren (Default)
-Opera Mini (when not on wifi/on edge)
-Dolphin HD (Only when I want to watch something on Hulu)
I'd been a fan of Xscope until Miren. Miren is at least as fast as Xscope and has a nicer UI, I think. It's a great browser.

Everyone who recommended miren you guys rock. By far best browser I've used so far!

Weird, I just tried miren and I was very unimpressed. Far slower and nowhere near as smooth as dolplin HD (haven't tried mini)

Has anyone been able to load the Xoom stock browser or the Acer A500's browser on the nook color. If so, where can I find the apk?
These browsers are far better than the android mobile browser and all the market ones seem slow.
Thanks

The "Xoom browser" is the stock Honeycomb browser, and is available with any of the honeycomb roms in the development section.
This browser is not compatible with Cyanogenmod 7 (2.3.4) or Barnes and Noble's 1.2 update (2.2).
It is only compatible with Honeycomb (3.0+)
Thanks, yeah I'm running phiremod so I guess its a no go.
Sent from my Droid using XDA Premium App
Try Opera Mobile, it's probably the fastest and smoothest Android browser out there.
For the tabbed browsing experience much like the Honeycomb browser, try the new version of Dolphin HD. It's also really fast and smooth.
Another vote for Dolphin HD. Its not as good as the honeycomb browser, but its pretty close.

I use Dolphin HD as well. It what way do you feel the HC browser is better (I ask because I really want to know, not to try and defend Dolphin in any way)? Also, isn't the HC browser basically Chrome?

The HC browser seemed a little quicker, but you're right that it's basically just chrome - or at least I would agree with that statement.

I think DHD and Opera are both horrible sloppy experiences in my opinion.
I long for the day either the NC can get a full on stable port of CM HC, or the browser can be ported.
I have been on dolphin for a while and have been looking to possibly change but I'm not sure where I want to go what is your opinion on android browser alternatives

I really like Maxthon. It definitely blows Firefox out of the water.
I ran Dolphin Mini for a very long time, and just tried experimenting with new ones. My current favorites are Ninesky and Maxthon.
What browser is everyone using? Have you found anything faster than the stock browser?
I use Dolphin. Stock on my Transformer Prime though.

Opera is the smoothest, but I prefer Dolphin HD for the functionality.
I use the stock browser on Scott's CleanROM 2.1 right now. What are the advantages of Dolphin?

Last I knew Firefox can't multi task. Everytime you close it, it starts at your home page.

Dolphin is amazing. The plugins, ease if use, speed, all amazing.
One plugin let's you Swype right to left to access the plugin drawer, and then touch an icon to switch between desktop and mobile view.
Bookmark backup and sync with the stock browser, and across multiple Android devices.
Theme support, regular updates, and lots of plugins that do cool stuff.

Dolphin mini. Unless it's changed, dolphin hd was a little too busy for me. I was always making it swipe to bookmarks menu unintentionally, etc. Dolphin mini is very lightweight and speedy.

you can turn off the swiping settings for dolphin hd.
I use dolphin for full pages and stock for mobile (default browser).
Stock browser mostly. I have Opera Mobile installed. Only ever use Opera Mobile for a secondary Facebook account.. And I'm rarely in it. Opera Mobile always has javascript problems on many websites. Even pc Opera has jsp issues. I have used Dolphin HD. It's very nice but it has very poor memory management. It will consume a ginormous amount of RAM in no time. Don't get me wrong, I like Dolphin, but using over 118mb on a simple image search in Google.. lol. That's ridiculous. I hadn't even gotten around to opening a single image when it started slowing down. Needs a little work. Just my opinion. No gripes..
I like Xscope. It's faster than stock, faster even than Dolphin Mini. It has themes available, doesn't use massive amounts of memory, and just plain works with ease. It's easily in my top 5 best paid apps list.

I'm interested to know how Chrome fares on your single-core devices against the ICS stock browser? For me, Chrome feels rather heavy. Although I can't pinpoint it, I can feel the phone to be quite dragging whenever I'm using Chrome, whereas using the stock ICS browser hasn't given me any sign of slowness at all.
For mobile site ics browser...for desktop site chrome

Chrome is very slow Xperia Mini, I use Dolphin Browser and it works OK.
Chrome at me strongly brakes. Use Opera Mobile/Dolphin Browser or Firefox
If u need to synchronize your browser you chrome but in lww it is very slow so I recommend using dolphin or opera mobile

I Would prefer using the stock ICS Browser dude..
Chrome is taking a lot of space on my Xperia Mini and its Real Heavy so i just toss it away from my XM :laugh:
Anyway I Use Any Browsers as long it can browse the internet :laugh:
chrome is still beta no flash support, im using stock browser and chrome,
I prefer to use stock browser over chrome...page load faster on stock while smootness is chrome....but try alternative browser like dolphin hd which is one of the best browser for android

Before I used the excellent Opera Mobile for auto text reflow and flash.
I test Chrome on Xperia Mini but since I found the app ICS browser+ I only use stock browser!:good:
I don't use opened tabs and I have all the same bookmarks sync plus auto text reflow, flash, and the very used extra quick controls.
I can't use Chrome because of this So I'm happy with stock browser for now...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1789939
So as far as I can see most people would suggest against usage of Chrome on single-core devices like our 2011 Xperia line of phones.
