Dang..ya beat me to it. Was just in the process of posting
FLASH WORKS! FLASH WORKS! FLASH WORKS!
HAHA haven't been this excited since the 'ol WinMo days.
Don't expect the speed of Opera, that hasn't changed w/ this Android port....but for functionality, can't beat it.
Beta?
Only one I see says beta after it. Is that it?

FC. will try uninstall-reinstall....
You can also download it from Android Market.
Can't wait to try this, loved it on my WinMo phone.

I tried to post this reply on my phone but skyfire keeps force closing when I pointed to text boxes...
Installed and uninstalled. Slower and more cluttered than the stock browser.
Maybe the full release will be better.
Pass. Plus Flash already works on my phone.
This browser seems better than stock, but not as fast as Dolphin overall. Better Flash support sounds good to me though.
This browser is the closest I have come to being able to play my Slingbox on Android... The Slingbox website thinks I am on Mac OSX.
Despite not being rejected at the directory page(like every other android browser), it doesn't show my Slingbox.
i got the daily show to play from it's website so I'm happy, hulu = fail and so does abc.com shows

Off Topic, but along these lines.
The Facebook touch website says "Download facebook for your Ruth" instead of "Download facebook for your Hero"
WTF is that about???? LOL
out of all the browsers,
great for speed-opera
great versatility-dolphin
ease of use-stock
sky fire is okay but its not better than any of these in their respective categories
on a side note has anyone tried fennec(firefox mobile) i cant get it started
What I'm stoked and waiting anxiously for is Opera Mobile. Loved it on my Vogue and dont see why I wouldnt on my Hero.

That's probably due to the fact that all your data is being sent through a Skyfire proxy. Yup. You're revealing your browsing habits and data to Skyfire.
Yeah, the way skyfire works is that everything is rendered on their server and then sent to your phone. So, websites that detect hardware or location will end up detecting skyfire's hardware and location instead of yours. It also means that a copy of your facebook page is now cached on skyfire's server!

SkyFire server admins will enjoy my nude shots on my FB Page.
Edit:
It does it on all browsers so far...its weird.
For those of you that pulled the trigger on the official sprint update and lost the flash capability of the custom roms, there is good news. I found Dolphin Browser HD in the market and it runs flash content better than any browser I have seen thus far for android. Check it out, I was pretty excited to see this.

hmm really? like real inbrowser flashh?
It displays my website that requires Flash 10 and the default browser with the official sprint 2.1 won't. I like the look of the UI too.
Sweet. I'm gonna check this out.
Are you sure about this? I've been using dolphin browser for a while and I've never got flash stuff to work

You know this has got to be an fluke of some kind. I can run flash content on my Dolphin Browser HD with no problems. I can't run flash in the default browser.
Last night I installed Dolphin Browser HD on my wife's phone and her phone says she needs to download a flash player to view content. I have tried over and over to get hers to work and nothing, but mine works. I have no idea why. Is there a way to do screen capture video on these devices so I can show you?

Change your user agent to desktop.
it works when user agent is Android too, but a lot of pages default to mobile, so changing user agent helps with that.

Even Hulu loads (not the movies though, just says not available for your platform)...the user agent string for desktop can't be changed in Dolphin by chance, can it? Not that it would be much use on my Hero anyway, it seems pretty slow.
I tried both user agents on my wife's phone and it won't load flash, but mine will. I still can't figure out the difference.
Wouldn't work for me.

Aye works in DolhphinHD. For IMDB at least...Some other sites want me to open the flash content in another app...
why can't i play movies in You Tube with Dolphin HD?
flash plays on android 2.2 or above.
I've been wrestling with the Flash issue for months. I tried SkyFire and that doesn't work, tried Dolphin HD and that doesn't work, Youtube App doesn't work, Hulu App doesn't work. I'm pretty frustrated but I'll uninstall Dolphin HD and download the latest from the market just in case and try it again.
I managed to find a Flash 2.2 APK and it works about 15% of the time so it asks for an upgrade to the new Flash Player. It sucks we don't get native Flash on teh Hero as I use this now as m daily business phone.
I cannot download files from sites where you have to set the password Captcha. I wait, I write the password, then I click the following link but instead to download the file, it download an html file of 200 bytes. I tried stock browser and Astro. Only Firefox works but Firefox is a beta then 3 times of 4 it freezes. Any suggestion?

Of all the browsers available, only opera mobile does this perfectly. I use it for all downloads.

Try playing around with switching to desktop/android modes.. also keep in mind filesonic has recently stopped working on Firefox on PC too so they have new systems in place to combat all the skipscreen like programs.
Jdownloader+captchatrader+jdown-remote-onAndroid = WIN.
Take WIN + dropbox and you have EPIC WIN!!

Firefox Alpha armv6
Disclaimer:
I do not take credit for this browser i did not develop it credits should go straight to mozilla for delivering there browser to armv6 devices.
Description:
The firefox alpha browser is not compatible with all of the current plugins available for the stable firefox browser that is already available on the market. Compatibility checking is based on the version number. After playing around with this browser while its still in alpha i find it to be quite stable and good for daily use.
Here's the OFFICIAL Mozilla file at Bugzilla for getting official support for ARMv6 devices.

what still needs to be checked to be sure if it works correctly is the update feature inside the browser
Steps To Update:
1) open the browser and press menu
2) press more
3) press settings
4) press about nightly
5) check for updates
Nice, it works quite fast. So far I was using Dolphin Browser as a replacement for the default one, but now I will be using this.
They know how to use the default mobile view?

Not on stock browser. You can use ICS Browser+.
On CM9 you can change the user agent string on stock browser.

Try apple store... Oh wait...
what the hell guys?
you said ics browser i didnt realised this is a seperate browser from the stock i thought it a modification
I use the stock browser when i want a mobile site, but if I want the full version I use dolphin or chrome or opera. This is how i've done to work around
dolphin for pad seems to crash when i download something

you can get it from the market if you dont know already... though from my experience the request desktop site still not permanent.. i might have missed something.. using dolphin hd now

It is permanent, but you have to go into settings and change it from there. Simply clicking the "request desktop site" does not save it.
Yahoo refuses to load the desktop page using Opera on my TF by default.
If I do a Google search using Opera & go to a link on the first page. When I try to go back Opera takes me back to main Google search page instead of back to the first page of my original search.
Opera frequently crashes too and I never had any of the issues before ICS.
Best work around I have found for stock browser is to request full site, then bookmark the site and just load from bookmark.
