Hey guys, I've searched for this, and can't seem to find exactly what I'm looking for. I used to own an HTC HD2 with the stock WM6.5, and what I loved about its web browser is that after pinch-to-zooming any web text, the text would automatically re-fit itself to the borders of the screen. However, on my Nexus One and my new Nexus S I've noticed that no matter what I do, the only way to actually get the text to fit nicely on the page is to either double tap the screen (which decides its own level of zoom) or to use the little zoom +/- buttons. Is there any way that I can have the simplicity of pinch to zooming with having the text auto-fit itself to the page? Thanks.
actually the browser does the same thing you are asking. there are a few methods.
first, load any random webpage, double tap, and yes it zooms in to default level and re-flows the text.
but, just use pinch to zoom, go to your desired level, then double tap that text, and it will re-flow the text at that specific zoom level to the edges of the screen. just like you want.
Thanks for the quick response. Indeed, I have been double tapping after pinch to zooming to get the text to auto-fit, but my question is if it's possible to have the text auto-fit immediatley after pinch-to-zoom without the additional step of double tapping. Yes, it's only one extra step, but just curious if there's any way around it.
Dolphin browser has this setting. Also cm rom in cm settings also has it.

Where in dolphin settings would I find the appropriate setting? Thanks in advance!
Settings, then advanced. Then you have 2 settings, open in overview and auto fit to page. In your case untick open in overview and check fit to page.

This has helped me too - Thanks
What is cm rom though?
Cyanogenmod, the most popular android custom rom. It requires root, obviously.

Anyone know of a way to stop the stock browser zooming in when u double tap? Annoys me quite a bit as I always multi touch zoom, and often I double tap by accident. Thanks

Ive searched around for a while and havent been able to find anything but is there anyway to stop the browser from automatically resizing the text whenever you zoom in. I find it kinda annoying and i cant find anything in settings. Thnx.

I'm confused. You don't want the text to ZOOM when you ZOOM? ZOOMING, by definition, gives you a close up, which makes things appear bigger.

I am with homeslice on this one. In the browser settings you can select default text size. But when you zoom in and out the text will always change proportionately with the zoom. I personally have never used a browser on a phone or a computer that was any different.
Is there any way to get the text to wrap when double tapping or zooming in the stock browser? Does Chrome do this yet? I know this is possible on HTC phones but I have not been able to get this to work on the gs3.
The screen is so big on this phone that it hasn't bothered me as much, but I'd really like the ability to read larger text on those espn articles.
Opera Mobile does that perfectly.
I have the size text to fit Page option enabled in chrome and it works pretty darn well on viewing pages, mainly forums. Big difference with this option on chrome compared to the stock browser.

I only use Opera now, because its text reflow is very good. Stock and Chrome do not reflow for me, which is a serious usability omission for any mobile browser, IMHO.
