Android users, give chrome a try.

Post by CrunchBerries »

I was getting fed up with the stock browser which refreshes the entire page 95 times per second. U could never type web addresses or Google searches without the page refreshing and causing me to click on another random link where the next character of the keyboard was supposed to be. Now with chrome all that bullshiznit is gawn!

Nice.

I don't like how dolphin wants to auto refresh everything every time I go back to it. like if I am in dolphin and go to the home screen or to another app and then switch back to dolphin it refreshes everything and re-loads all the pages. :|

I've been using Chrome on my Transformer, but it stopped working on my SIII for some odd reason.

I also like Opera on my TF, as chrome doesn't show flash items.

I've got a whole bunch of browsers, but the main ones I use are Boat Mini and occasionally Dolphin. I used to use Dolphin and had a shitload of the add-on things, but then discovered it was what was killing my battery life. For some reason, even if I restarted the phone and didn't open anything Dolphin-related, it'd have this cunt of a thing running in the background all the time. So I wiped it.

Re-installed it a bit later on, but just bare, no add-ons.

Haven't got Chrome though.

Chrome has the bookmark/tab sync thing going for it which can be handy if you're going between multiple devices phone/tablet/PC.

Yep, stock browser did that too. If I went in and out of signal ranges, I'd be shit outta luck even if I preloaded webpages. Refreshing the page also kills it when you're trying to just check info quickly and the refresh takes forever..
