Question:
When I installed the 2.5.25 build from miuiandroid, I was getting a red ring around the screen when entering/leaving most apps...I installed trobys build of 2.5.25 and have not encountered this issue.
Can someone who has installed today's build confirm if it is still happening or not? If so, is there anything to do to fix it? I imagine that it has to do with the screens resolution

INTRODUCING SwiftOpen
To speed lovers: this is the app you thought didn't exist but always wanted.
SwiftOpen is a launcher (not a home launcher) that allows you to launch apps, shortcuts, contacts, calls... very, very fast.
Not only is it fast at launching whatever you want, but its interface also allows you to choose it quickly, without even looking at the phone. And this applies to as many shortcuts as you wish.
It is also lightweight and battery friendly!
Awesome video by Android Hackz:

Appearing on XDA-TV:
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/3-unique-launchers-xdatv/
TRANSLATIONS:
I can provide native translations for Spanish and Catalan. If anyone wanted to contribute translating the app to any other language it would be very helpful. If so, please pm me or send me an email. Thanks!
Features:
Very fast launching
App launching
System toggles such as torch, wifi, autorotate...
Did I say fast?
Shortcut launching
Recent apps and calls
Guided setup
Folders that allow even more shortcuts
Multiple detectors
Multiple actions per detector
Custom icons for folders
Icon pack support
Alt-tab to switch to the previous app
Tablet (and phablet) mode
Intuitive settings
Battery friendly
Plenty of customization
I have already incorporated many features suggested by xda members. Any suggestion is welcome, and if I have time and I find it appropriate, I'll add it!
LAUNCHING IN PREVIOUS STATE:
Since v0.8.3 SwiftOpen launches apps in their previous state instead of restarting. Some apps behave different than expected, and need to be treated in a different manner so that they are resumed instead of restarted (like Whatsapp and gReader). I have a white list of these apps, so if you find an app that is restarted tell me and I'll try to verify that they'll be resumed if treated differently, to add them to the whitelist.
SOME PHONES:
The app does not work on some Huawei phones because of the rom -apps with floating windows don't work there. At least with those that I've tested. If someone has a Huawei phone with stock rom and it works, please tell me.
It does not work with some Xiaomi Redmi either. If someone has a Xiaomi phone and finds that the app works with the stock rom, please also tell me.
It is not because of the code in the app, but the rom those phones have...
VERSIONS:
v0.4 and v0.5 have not been optimized for Lollipop.
From v0.5.1 and up it is optimized for Lollipop.
In v0.6 the signature and the package name have changed (among other stuff) which means you'll have to configure it again, as it won't install on the previous version but in parallel. I'm sorry about this. The apk is also larger, because of the icons and all the changes in the project structure; it'll improve in next versions, I hope.
0.6.2 uses more ram than it should, and there are a few other issues.
ANDROID ISSUES:
If you go to the home launcher and then launch an app, it won't be launched until about 5 seconds after going home. It's how Google wants it to be, and I'll try a workaround in the future but I'm not sure if it'll work. Nevertheless, the point of this app is not needing to go to the home launcher
BETA:
This app is currently in beta. All your feedback will be more than welcome.
And you can also suggest new features...
If the app crashes it asks you to send me an email, with the Logs. You can see what is being send, so don't worry about your privacy, it is safe!
OPEN SOURCE:
Now I have to fix some bugs, add a bit of functionality, and clean up the code. Whenever this is done (in a few weeks, I hope) the app will be open source.
MATERIAL DESIGN:
I am also working on bringing material design to the app.
Nevertheless the priority is bug-fixing and functionality.

Great job
I'll keep an eye to see how it evolves. By now it looks promising.
It would be great to include the ability to add widgets as well.
Yes, it's planned. I will add the features I have planned so that you know them. But that's after bug fixing, when the app is open source. So it'll take a while yet. At least a month.
Awesome! (some feedback)
I've been looking for something like this for so long. I simply love shortcuts. I've been trying it for a day now and here is my feedback (and some suggestions):
- Settings don't apply inmediately. You have to turn off and close the app and then restart it for them to work. (It would be awesome to see real-time changes (i don't know how difficult that is), for example, for the vertical position of the border detection).
- The alt+tab function is simply genius, i use it more times than i expected. Keep that up.
- Rows and columns could be editable for each table. For example, i got a "Contacts table" (where a folder in my main page redirects to) where i'd like 6 contacts but i want 4x3 icons in my "Main table". So that would be a cool feature too.
- The permanent icon: I don't know it's purpose. If it's only to close the app, maybe an in-app long press button or something will do better and be less invasive for the drawer?
That's all for now, i will edit, if you want, with more feedback on the next days. :good:

Thank you very much for your feedback. About settings, I know that and its in the bug list to be fixed.
Rows and columns editable for each table is also into consideration. Nevertheless I don't think it is intuitive because the cells would not be in the same position.
And if the permanent icon means the notification, it is because to ensure that the app is not killed by the system, it is required to have a permanent notification.
If you give me more feedback it will be highly appreciated
Here's some more
Here are two more things i noticed:
- The border detector sometimes gets graphically buggy and it shows a big rectangle where the thin line should be. I assume it's the detector losing its transparency. I have a Nexus 4 running cm11 M10 (maybe it's only my problem)
- And second, sometimes when you accidentally fast click the border, it opens youtube (in my case the top central shortcut) instead of the one that belongs to the very edge of my screen (which i have empty to prevent this cases in particular, though it seems not to work)
I leave a screenshot with my config also.
About the big rectangle in my phone it happens very very rarely. But I'll fix it as soon as I discover what causes it.
And about launching YouTube, I'll look into it. Nevertheless it shouldn't be necessary to leave that cell empty if you use the "distance to drag necessary..." preference. I know the name is not intuitive but it prevents the detector from opening the launcher when the drag is very short (taps).
Thanks!

Nice work
Awesome app, I'd love to see it fully perfected!
Here's my feedback:
1. When the launcher is activated when in SwiftOpen Settings, the activity stack is all messed up, (especially if you go into creating a new table and opening the launcher while configuring it). While pressing back, the same activities come repeatedly and I have to press back a lot of times to exit the settings. Not a big issue, but a rough edge to be polished. I think it can be solved by providing a separate task stack for the launcher activity alone, by specifying a
Code:
android:taskAffinity
for the launcher activity in the manifest file.
2. Android limitation of launching an activity from a service only after at least 5 sec, is unfortunate. I was riddled with the same problem, however to overcome that, I replaced the activity and made the entire thing "draw over other apps". I am not sure whether it'll work properly in this case, but worth a try anyway.
I'll come back soon for the updates.
Edit: I guess point 2 is in place, since I don't see the delay anymore.
I noticed the stack issue and forgot to write it down, so haven't tried to fix it. I'll try as soon as possible. Thanks for the feedback!

The "Distance of drag necessary..." works just perfectly fine!
I also noticed the stacking-back problem but i thought it was only me...
Keep up the awesome job!
Edit: Trying out the new v0.3 and noticed one thing, it's hard to explain so i'll try my best.
When you swipe away the apps from the "recent menu" (i dont know how to call it, it's the bottom right soft button on a Nexus4) and you leave it completely empty, using the Alt+tab function closes the app everytime.
It may be silly but that's a bug i think (although not very critical )

Thanks for telling me about the name. When I looked for it it didn't appear (or I didn't see it). Nevertheless I'll put Swift open - Launcher or something like this, in the play store.
About drag and drop, it's in the long lost of to-dos but not a priority. First I have to fix some bugs. Thanks!

Help - Tips and Tricks
Open link in foreground:
If you have open links in background checked then you can open a link in a new tab and show it immediately by long pressing either "open in new tab" or "open in incognito tab". If you have open links in background unchecked you can do the reverse by long pressing either of those options.
Reopen closed tab:
Simply long press the new tab button (not in overflow menu) and it will be reopened.
Share link:
You can add this option to the long click popup dialog from Display Settings > Edit link dialog menu
Undelete or Unmove bookmark:
Long press back button (not hardware or onscreen back)
Open bookmark in new tab:
Long press the bookmark without moving it to show the menu
Incognito bookmark folder:
Long press plus button when viewing bookmarks to show hidden folder. You can delete it and it will still be kept, but if you rename it and delete it the folder will be replaced with an empty one.
Use Hardware Rendering (Advanced Settings)
This enables hardware rendering for webviews and should only be enabled if you're experiencing very bad performance. It might help, or it wont make a difference in which case leave it off. This will use additional resources and RAM - it might also use more battery so you shouldnt enable this if the webview is rendering and scrolling fine.
Maximum performance
The most efficient layout is the bottom drawer layout, it only has 2 immediate children: the webview and the the toolbar. The bottom drawer is only made visible once you click the tab counter or when you touch at the bottom of the screen, this lets the UI avoid any additional layout calculation for the drawer. Scrolling is noticeably smoother with the bottom drawer and it most likely uses less battery in comparison to the other layouts. You can also turn off the pull to refresh to reduce the touch logic albeit for an insignificant gain. Disabling the adblock and manually adding urls as needed drastically reduces the amount of RAM the adblocker takes up and I would definitely recommend this.
Permissions
GPS - For websites that want to use location
Storage Access - Downloading files, crash logs, and for the built-in file manager
Network Access - Have a guess
Read/Write Bookmarks and History - Speed needs to be able to import bookmarks from chrome
Draw Over Apps - Floating window for tablet mode so Speed can draw over apps
Credits
This project would not be possible without the amazing work ACR development so huge thanks to Anthony! You can find the Lightning Browser repository and source code here: https://github.com/anthonycr/Lightning-Browser
I'd also encourage everyone to try out lightning browser (play store)
Since Speed is a fork of lightning, parts of Speed that contain lightning browser source code are licensed under Mozilla Public License 2.0
You can find the source code for Speed here: https://github.com/fusionxr/Speed-Browser
Additional classes and layouts that do not contain lightning code are not required to be disclosed under the MPL 2.0 hence why I've ommited them and the build will fail.
Special thanks to @beemgee, @IAmLucky, @Mrxyzl, @ratbags, @60nine for their early beta testing and continued help in improving Speed
Also huge thanks to everyone for all the support and for putting up with and reporting bugs.

I'm glad it works for you! As you mentioned, chrome takes up a lot of ram on my galaxy s3, and I'm pretty sure most people face that problem with 1gb of ram, hence my reason for making this app.
I'm thinking of publishing this app on the Google play marketplace if I get enough good feedback.
<MOD EDIT - Link Removed>
Updated app.

New features :

- Enhanced adblock and popup blocker: sites can still open new tabs in the background so long as they aren't ads
- New tab and navigation buttons in drawer
- Incognito tabs alongside normal tabs
- Performance tweaks
I'll be maintaining and adding features to this app whenever I have time, let me know what you guys think and if you've got any suggestions.
edit: for some reason I cant attach files
edit: okay finally found manage attachments, download and screenshot in first post
New version released! Updated first post with video demo.
Just installed and totally amazed
Super light and pretty fast
Swipe to access tabs and bookmarks are great
Somethign for you to improve : when changed to dark mode the browser is not totally "dark", just tabs and settings and bookmarks are dark. And the 3dots menu icon on the bar is invisible in dark mode
Btw this going to be my default browser
How do I get the border around the address bar dark like in the screenshots you posted?

Thank you! I'm flattered that this is going to be your default browser.
As requested I've fixed the dark theme and the menu icon coloring in incognito mode. I updated the attached apk in first post.
I'm working on fixing the full screen mode and incognito mode too.

Hey guys when I download something does the browser have a download manager
Just encountered an issue here
If the browser is killed because of low memory, when i re-opened it, it crashed and then all bookmarks and tabs are erased

Love this so far. Could we have the option for the stack of tabs to come down from the top rather than build from the bottom of the screen?
Great use of material design - looks really clear. When will be released to google play?

Hey everyone. I'm the developer behind Fishpowered browser. I've been working on this in my spare time for the past couple of years and am starting to feel more comfortable in sharing my progress!
Here are some reviews from the Play store to whet your appetite...
This is THE BROWSER! There is simply nothing like it out there! I'm a geek obsessed browser lover and I cannot believe it! It has it all! Speed, customisation, takes very little space! And the cats on top of all as if it wasn't enough with just being the best there is!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Epic!! Developers might have gone and made the best browser app for Android. Customisation options are great.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Im absolutely blown away how good this browser is, and its super user friendly. And I really love the gestures. Keep up the awesome work.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I've totally just over hyped it but I needed your attention. This is actually my first android app (I'm a web dev by trade) and my technical abilities don't match my ambition yet, but it's getting a little closer with every release!
Why should you care about Fishpowered browser?
There are browser conventions that are widespread and probably shouldn't be e.g. UI layouts that require hand gymnastics, "bookmarks", browsing history etc. I've tried to re-design everything with a fresh pair of eyes.
What are my motivations?
Having a successful project
Building something that protects my privacy and lets me uninstall many other apps on my phone
Making a browser that gets rid of all the spammy cr*p you see on sites these days
Helping people out with internet addiction and responsible internet/phone usage. This is not something that's actually in the browser yet (I've been trying to build a solid base first) but is coming in the future and I have some interesting ideas for it.
Making a browser that works well with one hand
Making a browser that's good for language learning (I'm trying to learn Finnish)
How do I make money?
I don't. There is zero ads/spyware/crapware and there never will be. If it ever gets really popular (maybe 100k+ active users? I dunno haha) I would monetise it by selling themes and accepting donations. Nothing that compromises anyone's privacy. But I only have a few hundred users so I guess that's not likely to ever happen.
Is it open source?
Nope, not while it's still being developed. You can follow the development and see the code on Twitch though (channel: fishpowered)
How can I trust this?
Good question which is unfortunately difficult to answer. As mentioned above I try to do a lot of coding on twitch. I also made a video where I download Fishpowered and the major anti-virus apps from the play store and ran through all the tests so you don't have to: www.twitch.tv/videos/877039346 If you watch the video you'll see why this would be incredibly hard for me to fake because of the infinite picture in picture.
Do not trust any download links outside of this post and Google play store as I have nothing to do with all those other APK sites.
What's bad with it/still left to do?
It's built on the Android webview component which is essentially a wrapper for Chrome. This has the advantage that you get security updates instantly (whenever Chrome is updated) but also has some limitations as it wasn't really designed for being a full-on web browser. For example, I try to add a lot of context sensitive help e.g. if you select some metric/imperial unit in a recipe, it will convert the unit for you, but things like this won't work inside webpages that use iframes (e.g. Google AMP) because webviews can't view selections inside an iframe. Performance isn't amazing either, if you have an old device, you may struggle a bit.
Lastly there are some other things that could obviously be added/improved but simply don't make sense for me to spend time on yet if they will take ages or are very niche features, it's just me working on it in my spare time.

Having a quick play around with fishpowered browser and I really like it.
Kudos...and welcome to XDA
Made some Fishpowered themed mobile wallpapers as well if anyone's interested...
Download from deviantart: https://www.deviantart.com/fishpowered/gallery/74845548/mobile-phone-wallpapers
Wow, a powerful browser with 3.7Mb app size... Gotta try that
Recommendations
Ability to import bookmarks
Ability to not play videos instantly when page opened(site settings)
When typing an address of a site that visited before, whole address of that site can appear in the address bar
When typing something in address bar, search results should be positioned below the middle of the screen, close to the address bar(to help one hand usage)
When using swipe up to close a tab, it should also check the swipe speed/distance of finger, instead of checking only swiped-to position in order to make fast but short distance swipes work
Thanks for the feedback. Most of this was already on my todo list. The bottom alignment of the search results is tricky though without completely changing how the speed dial works as those screens show all sorts of things and the point is u can filter those as well, not just the suggestions. I will try to improve it as I obviously want it to work on phones with tall screens too
Bruh, this is my new Naked Browser. Love it! My only future request is to be able to arrange the favorites..drag and drop maybe?
Browser keeps logging me out sites after some time. If I go into incognito mode, I'm logged out when I return to default tabs.

Should be fixed in 1.4.0! Never thought this was possible due to not being able to change the default cookie manager but I found a workaround.

Great browser, been using it as my main browser for 2 days and it works well, sans packed with nice features.
Only issue I've encountered so far is that LastPass isn't working properly. Instead of detecting which website I'm browsing, LastPass only detects the browser itself (eg. Fish powered) so it doesn't propose any password for the site I'm on.

I've submitted a bug report to Google. Unfortunately the autofill API doesn't work and the console log gives me no useful indication as to why and documentation is scarce. You might be able to workaround this by pinning your current tab to the mini window and then trying from there as it least in the preview window the autofill works with Google's default autofill

I was having the same issue with Vivaldi browser for Android. I looked on their forums and they have a thread regarding this. The devs on there have talked about this same issue and apparantly it's not something easy to fix... Here's the thread, if it has any value to you :
https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/40036/lastpass/20
Specifically in the last page:
In order to support Android Autofill API, we need to get on Android's compatibility list. How to get on this list is something the team has been trying to figure out, but we've exhausted quite a few options without much success.

Thank you bruh. I understand that you are still learning. I would like the ability to drag and drop tabs. Also, could you make the option to make tabs smaller so we can fit more than 3? I will now go to donate.
1.4.0 Released! Will be available on Google Play Store in the next 1-7 days (once it gets approved).
Alternatively, check the OP for apk download although if you are already installed using the play store it is recommended to stay on that.

what an awesome browser!
My thoughts:
1) needs setting to enable desktop mode by default. the desktop toggle always resets to OFF when you enter a new url. some websites detect the device and forces redirect to mobile site pages and doesn't allow desktop view.
2) backup and restore all active tabs and settings. for long term use and saving all actives tabs to say, an html file or plain text.
3) html content hide feature is awesome, very nice. dark mode is great.
4) more quick actions and customisations please
will keep on using daily to test and report on bugs.
