Hope anyone can help me.....
I can not set the default browser on the S4 to be CHROME. NO matter how many times I set this to the default browser it always prompts me to select one or always anytime a url is clicked.
I cleared all the stock default browser, downloaded an app to make sure that CHROME was the default app and it said it was. Still prompts me to select the Chrome or stock browser.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks to anyone that can help me.

I love the widget but hate the lack of organization. Anyway to rearrange them?
Yeah, I've been wondering the same. Can't figure out how to rearrange them in-browser either...
There are a couple of apps that will let you rearrange bookmarks. I use BookmarksSB
https://market.android.com/details?id=app-com.happydroid.bookmarks
That one force closes upon opening every time.:/(
On the details of that app it says:
Warning: on Android 3.x/Honeycomb, do not use this application if the Google Chrome bookmark synchronization is activated.
Could that be the problem?
No not synced.
Problem may be I have another browser.apk installed. I believe it was ported from the xoom or transformer with the quick controls.
i don't know why the stock browser doesn't let you rearrange bookmarks.. i've been using dolphin, which does let you, and is more user friendly. it also gives you full screen browsing. you could also set the uastring to desktop without having to debug all the time.
Thank you for the App. I was wondering how can i rearrange my bookmarks. Google should have included that within the browser.
Got a questions.
Regarding email app, anyway one know how can you select all emails at one instead of going through all the email to select them?

It seems that I cannot change some default apps. Mainly ones that came with the phone. For example, the only way for me to make Chrome my default browser, is to disable the stock browser, click a link so that it uses chrome by default. Then go back an re-enable the stock browser. Other apps like email, I cant seem to change. When I click a email link, it automatically uses the stock email, not gmail. There doesnt seem to be a way to change this, since I cannot disable the stock email app.
Yes, I have gone in to apps and cleared defaults. Doesnt seem to do anything. Anyone have any suggestions?

Man do I feel dumb!! Thanks!
Every time i change chrome to default browser it does not stick. If i click on a link in email, google+, or twitter i still get prompted to use chrome or internet.
I've searched and searched everyone says same thing but nothing works.
I've checked "always open with" chrome and does not work.
I've went under all apps and tried to clear default for internet but it is grayed out and i can not click it.
Under default applications it does not show browsers so i can't modify there.
I've downloaded an app called "default app manager" and it allows me to change the browser default but it does not "stick". as soon as i click a link i'm still prompted with an option for browser.
I'm having same issue. Did you ever find a solution?
this may help
I found this to be another app causing the issue, in my case National Express Coach app.
But i think you can find out if you have the same clash using "Default App Manager" lite from the store.
Open app, Under Browser Category it will probably say "no Default App.
Click Browser category, if there is another app listed here other than Internet and Chrome etc, try uninstalling that rogue, non browser app as a test. Worked for me..
