Dorothy: an Internet browser for Windows Mobile 6/6.1

Hi, all.
I'd like to introduce Dorothy, an Internet Browser for Windows Mobile 6/6.1.
In fact, I'm one of the developers of this browser.
It's a stand-alone, webkit-based browser.
We tested it on HTC HD/Diamond, Sony Ericsson X1i, and Samsung Omnia.
We started the closed beta program a few weeks ago.
You can join at http://www.dorothybrowser.com .
I hope you enjoy the Internet browsing with Dorothy.
We welcome any feedback or suggestion.

All the bests,

i am only downloading because i really like the name.

They call it a 'service,' so perhaps they use their servers to transcode websites before sending them to the phone? If so, it's in the same vein as Opera Mini, Opera Turbo and Bolt Browser.
I hope it's not the case.

i too love the name

It does not use any proxy server. It's stand alone.

Oh sweet! I can't wait to test it then. If it really is three times faster than Opera, this could be one killer browser.
I already registered, har har. :3
Update: got the download link! I'm excited.

Interesting. Only basics, but fast. I miss only text wrapping (now it's hard to read anything) and tabbed brwosing. I like rendering - it's fast on start, it's fast when scolling, it's fast when exitting. I can't save my homepage in settings.

Interesting yeah. Not quite the three times faster than Opera Mobile as advertised, but further developments would be fun to watch.
Will we get updates by email?

Dorothy already has automatic update feature in it. You can see the update dialogue if there is any update. (The dialogue appears once a day if the update is available.) And we are planning to send e-mail notifications for updates.
We are now in the closed beta phase, that is, we are adding new features, fixing bugs, and changing things. Your suggestion or feedback will be very helpful. Please feel free to suggest.

I'm still waiting for their email with the download...
Really looking forward to trying it!

My email went in the spam box-check there.
Nice browser. I like the blue skin. It's not as fast as mini 4.2, but is on par with ucweb6 and opera 9.7. It needs settings and a full screen mode. Definitely a keeper.

Pages seem to render faster than Opera Mobile 9.5, actually. The issue is that they aren't updated to the screen properly. For example, when I navigate from one page to another, while the new page is loading, I still see the previous page, but if I scroll while it's loading, it renders the new parts without updating the section that's still painted with the old page.
Definitely a keeper. Needs more work on usability features, such as kinetic scrolling, better zooming and text reflow. Good job guys!
Oh, by the way, I use an HTC Touch Diamond. VGA screen.

Somebody registered but didn't get an e-mail?
Please let me know if you can't find any e-mail from "Dorothy" even in the spam box.
Maybe we should modify the e-mail sender module
contact e-mail: [email protected]
And, on the other hand, yes,
we are working on that page update bug.

Hey! Thanks for the update. I just sent an email to the feedback address so all of your team can see it. I also included a couple more concerns, I think.
In any case, it's pretty awesome to have yet another quality browser enter the WinMo market. We'll see how the competition plays out. Best of luck to everyone? Haha~

wow this is really a keeper! it really loads pages fast, even got more speed than opera mini on my device (touch pro 2)! needs a full screen mode though... and sometimes i get minor rendering issues( grey boxes here and there)
will keep an eye out for updates!

same here with the email - not spam folder no email, unfortunately.

Is there a QVGA version of this?
Thanks,
Bernard

Not yet
We are preparing resolution independent version.

When can I expect to get my email?

I really like it!
On touch HD the rendering is fast and accurate, also compared to Iris it seems that the page better follows the finger gesture (more fluid movement).
Compared to opera, It better supports Iphone websites thanks to webkit.
Impressive first attempt.
Like everybody else I'd like to see features like:
- Fullscreen (I really don't need to see windows top bar when surfing, and the address bar could be hidden the same way the bottom bar is hidden: just leaving a back button and an extend bar button maybe?)
- Zoom (I'd like not to have to scroll left and right when I zoom on iphone websites, could we chose the canvas size like in Opera? or have options like in Iris Mobile, Desktop, Column...)
- Kinetic scrolling (Everybody is really used to it, even if I also like the opera mini way were scrolling on the page is twice as fast as scrolling the finger - this one can be implemented easily I guess if kinetic takes too much time for now allowing for faster scrolling)
- Remember passwords (in safe and secure way of course)
Also question: What is the option at the right in the bottom bar with a + and a t?
Anyway thanks, really happy to see things moving on WM side of browsing, funny to see the new IE struggling compared to the competition...

Wich keyboard best for HD2?

I know EZinput, Finger Keyboard. Resco Keyboard......
Wich one works best on the HD2? In portrait and Landscape mode.....

in my opinion the Touch Pal keyboard in both modes. With the less sensitive cab in addition i write igual as with a hardware keyboard - finally.

touch pal all the way

Oh really looks impressive... i wasnt that happy with resco´s...where can i get Touch Pal?

Touchpal is the best.

touchpal!!!!

I was about to say spb keyboard but if everyone is so waaauw about touchpal then I'm going to try it first

I'm going to stick with SPB, much easier typing on HD2

I am still waiting for my HD2 but on my Diamond 2, fingerkeyboard seems far more accurate and simpler to use than Touchpal. Having said that, I am quite impressed by the Touchpal keyboard and perhaps a larger screen will make it more friendly to use.
I need to get used to swiping... that may be my main issue....
Anyone here know how you can remap keys? That was something I really like about fingerkeyboard. being able to remap keys so I dont have to go into alternative layouts, hit shift, etc to get the stuff I use 99% of the time... all my smileys, ".com", and even "..." were on that one layout.... seemed much faster IMHO... If I could do that with Touchpal and swipe down to get smileys etc instead of swiping to get a different set of symbols, I would be a happy camper!

maybe you should try SlideIT. You can find it here: http://www.mobiletextinput.com/
IMO its even better than FK

I use Touchpal, and I've written an editor for the user dictionary.
It was developed on a QVGA device, but I've seen that it works quite good on WVGA and then on HD2.
I've released it for free on this forum, also.

Trying to find my challenge code, but can't find it. Because I can't find my settings\personal?
1. Go to "Start" -> "Settings" -> "Personal" -> "Input".
2. Find "TouchPal" in "Input Method" list and then click "Options...".
3. Click "Activate..." to bring up "TouchPal Activation" dialog.

I always use the 'compact qwerty', it works better then the original qwerty so think i.
But, still i think that the original qwerty from the iphone better works.
That qwerty from the iphone has some spaces between the marks.
Is that possible to make here on xda?

Yes iPhone qwerty touch screen keyboard is the best keyboard I ever use. It's very accurate, you can't press two keys at same time like in WM. It's like, when you press on key, the radius of invis button is increasing, so if you touch other buttons around, thny not triggered.

Touch Pal freezing and cannot see how to Activate
I have the Me Card filled in under People, which covers the Owner information requirement but the instructions to get to where to enter the registration code does not work on the HD2. At the moment CooTek are unable to solve this.
I was premature in wanting to register as the programme currently freezes when the phone comes out of standby and I cannot choose any other keyboard until I soft reset the phone.
I have Touch Pal installed in main memory.
Any ideas folks?

It is actually better than the stock browser in my opinion, the only reason I didn't want to switch to it was.the lack of multi-touch.

Very slick interface.

I find that it doesn't load certain pages properly.

Hence the reason it sucks.

Lack of multi-touch is a non-issue for me. The lack of kinetic scrolling, however...

I'll pass,default browser is much better.+ doesn't work well for xda-developers.

everything loads weird, and the pictures are off, and no multi touch.
No thanks

Right, but 90% page compression more than makes up for that, as does speed dial for bookmarks.
I have been an Opera Mini fan since the days of my HTC Excalibur and WinMo 6 stuck on EDGE on T-Mobile.
On HSDPA, pages load in a snap, MUCH faster than stock or Dolphin browsers, and when I switch to EDGE in certain areas on my train commute home, its nice to still be able to cruise the web without a hiccup.
But rather than ***** about lack of multi-touch, you could *gasp* email the developer and suggest they add that, since this is a BETA, and there's still time for them to integrate MT before the release of the full product.
Also, kinetic scrolling works for me.

IDK it took me a long time to scroll down to the N1 section. In the stock browser I can do it in 1 swipe.

Check the settings. There may be an option for # of lines to scroll per swipe. I could be wrong as I haven't looked in this version, but I remember that being there for Opera Mini 4 on WinMo.

Nah, there's no option like that in this version.

The pictures were misplaced and all over the place. The words on the web pages were misplaced and all over the place. The images were very poor quality. Had no multi touch. To sum things up, I uninstalled this browser almost instantaneously. Nuff said.

Change text size in settings to "small". It helps render more pages properly.

Go to settings and change image quality from "low" to "medium" or "high". "Low" is great for edge. If you have a decent 3G connection, use "medium".

Considering this is still beta and it loads big pages about 2 -3x faster than the default browser, I'm quite excited. Can't wait for the final and firefox mobile to come.

Well the app does say BETA. I am personally blown away by the speed of this browser. Yes, it does such that it doesn't have Multi-Touch etc etc, but I'm very sure it will come in the next few releases. Instead of crying about broken features on a BETA product..don't uninstall the app..report the bugs and help make it something very high quality.

Anyone else having problems getting it to work?
It launches then hangs for a while "Installing" with the progress bar not moving, then a black screen with message "Unable to connect to the internet".

Lol, but wouldn't that require not being a self-important ****?
I totally agree with you.
Opera Mini 5 beta is my new default browser. Eff multi-touch. I can't stand waiting for a browser to load a simple web page when I'm on H or 3G. Opera pulls em down at lightning speeds.
Speed > MT any day.

Also, if you have a Desire ROM - it has Flash (lite of course)! Very nicely designed, sometimes laggy, browser if you ask me!
(only for Android 2.0 and above)

i like it!!!:

I never liked the original Dolphin Browser (think it's hideous and yea...not my cup o' tea) however I was blown away by the functionality and looks of this browser...
while it doesn't exactly fit my aesthetic it is still a beautiful app and another testament to the evolution of Android apps...
Hell, I even 'donated' for the ad free version simply because I always support apps I feel deserve it.
Now if only I can find a theming kit :-\

this browser win hands down.

It can't download zip files.

a bit laggy sometimes, feels as though its not making full use of the snapdragon.
but it is amazing none-the-less, glad to see apps as well made as this finally making their way on to the platform.
will be my new browser for a while

I'll give it a try for a while.
It sure looks nice.

like the new browser, made it my default for now

All right, not bad, but any way to get it to hide the tabs?
Also about:config comes up blank. Any way to get deeper under the hood of this thing than the settings menu?
Any other shortcomings you guys are running into?

I'm loving it!

If it is like the previous Dolphin Browser, all the "about:debug or aboutd:config" stuff is available without having to type it in each time you want to tweak something, it is just in the more list, or whatever they have it titled.
Just downloaded and double checked, it is like the previous versions, just hit menu, more, settings, then system settings in that list.

Beautiful app although the lack of pseudo-flash will be holding me back from switching to it as my default browser. They're on the right track though, I'm sure I'll switch to Dolphin once Froyo comes out and flash will be standard.

You know, i installed this maybe only 8 hours ago, with the intent of giving it a good testing before i tossed it aside (like Skyfire, and xScope) to revert back to the default browser.
But this thing has really grown on me. The text reformatting (column text formatting when zooming) is right on par with the default browser. xScope text reformatting was horrible.
In the minimal time I've had to really sit down and use it, I've really seen nothing LACKING from it, that is in the default browser. Gestures is really nice, and the UI is well, beautiful.
Its looking like i MAY have after all, a browser replacement.
Lets hope i don't find something else later that'll nix it for me, and send me back to default again. =) (nothing against default tho, it gets the job done, and rather well to be honest.)

12 hours of use and really enjoy it. The volume scroll is a nice added feature

lol, I felt that way myself, thought it was gonna be like the original dolphin, skyfire, and xScope for me...but no...it is my default now.

gonna give it a look see. thanks for the ups!

Does anyone know how to hide/show the tabs from anywhere on the page?
The old dolphin browser would show the tabs when I double-tapped on the screen. Now it seems that I have to scroll to the left or right side of the screen and swipe quickly to get the tab popup.
Or does anyone know how to get to the top of the page quickly?

Are you sure about that? Do you have a file explorer app like Astro installed?
I don't really like the Default Zoom built into the framework of these new browsers (since Dolphin HD is just a modified version of the 2.1 Browser). It usually just doesn't work (like setting Close is actually zoomed out) or Close is too close/Medium is too far out.
EDIT: Played around with it and setting the text size to Huge is a workaround for some sites but it's not consistent.

I'm loving it. Been using it now for about 3 days with no problems.

[App] UC Browser, another amazing Browser replacement from China

Lately, it seems like there has been an influx of Android goodies from China. Some of this stuff is pretty amazing, like the MIUI ROM. A couple of weeks ago, I discovered the "MIUI" -aka Charming, aka Miren- Browser and was stoked to get that thing in a translated form. It is speedy and has a pretty cool interface. You can find a number of posts on XDA (here, here, and here among them).
Everyone I have talked to who has used the Miren browser has been jazzed about how much better it is than the traditional options (stock, Dolphin, Fennec/FF, Opera, SkyFire, Xscope, etc.) and I too have been impressed.
Yesterday, I discovered yet another browser, this one also from China and I have to say, so far it has blown me away! I have been preaching on the Miren browser for a week, but This new UC browser is simply the best mobile browser I have used. I have only had it for about twelve hours, so I don't know what the full capabilities are or if there are any major bugs, but so far, I am incredibly impressed.
It can be a little tricky to locate and I am hesitant to post the apk here as it appears to work with hundreds of handsets in different formats. i will post the link where I found it and you can do your own research on which version to grab. This is the English language site (on a side note, these guys are PROS! Just check out the flawless translations in the various languages and you can see that they take immense pride in their product and work. You'd be hard pressed to find other Android devs who have the time or skill to provide such clean sites in multiple languages. Provides me as an end user with a lot of confidence in the final product.)
UC Browser
Pretty amazing specs includes all the typical options, some less prevelant ones and a few atypical inclusions such as built in File Manager, Night Mode lighting and super fast URL autocomplete. The only shortcoming so far is I can't find anyway to get pinch to zoom on this thing, but I am submitting a query to the devs on that.
Edit: Thanks to jpyounis1 for figuring out the pinch-to-zoom settings!
To enable pinch to zoom change user agent to "web ua" then browse mode to "zoom mode" and ur done. Now you have full pages with intelligent fit.
Edit2: Unfortunately, so far as I can tell, no flash support in 7.2. For now I will have to stick with Miren and Skyfire as my main browsers and keep UC as an alternate until 7.4 is available in English.
And it's pretty too...

thanks for the post

the "built-in" facebook scared me, security issues and all that :O
other than that this looks really sleek and nice, gonna try it out for a few days.

I was pretty psyched by the prospect of this browser, but if they don't have the ability to integrate pinch-to-zoom it might be a bust. That would be a shame because in all other respects this browser is superior to most others.
I guess I will wait and see what response i get from the devs.

Yea I really like this browser. Looks great and its ui is superior. I think its better than miren browser and is my new default. I think between this and firefox take the cake.

Awesome, thanks for discovering that. I thought I had tried that combo, but it must have been the "zoom Mode(Compressed)" that I tried. Now this is my favorite browser

thanks for sharing, looks great!

Anybody knows what that compression means:
Advanced compression technology can reduce data costs by up to 85%, making mobile surfing cheaper.

Does it mean that traffic goes through third party servers?

Yea I would imagine its similiar to what opera does.

Opera is located in Norway. It has a privacy policy matching european standards. Still I wouldn't feel completely comfortable to have all my browser traffic redirected through them, but that's a matter of personal taste as long as current standards are met.

I used UC as my main browser as a Nokia user...love it. They must have recently added the new platforms because I don't recall a WM version.

Indeed, it's Android!

Sharing content??
How do you system share content with other apps in Android?! IE: get it on the system share list?
Or.. how do you email content out.
I have to in part manage my information that way.
Thanks
Tim

wow nice find love the ui!
is there any way to get flash working on this browser?

It is definitely well polished, but there are 3 things that stop me making this my default
1. No quick access to address bar, in fullscreen mode
2. Share options of webpage are extremely limited
3. No true speed dial or easily configurable bookmark list for start page.

Yes I was also hoping for the same, but couldn't find it

Am I using a different version than you guys? I got Pinch to zoom working...
EDIT oops, looks like you guys already figure out how to pinch to zoom.
Anyway, this browser is amazing. The new 7.4 chinese version home ui looks like Miren browser.

Trouble with this configuration is that it becomes the same speed as every other browsers on Android... cept Opera Mini of course.
