Default Desktop Mode for stock browser? - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a mod that makes the stock ICS browser launch in desktop mode? I love the stock browser but hate having to manually change from mobile profile to desktop.

I'm Motorola Xoomin on you!

Just use ICS Browser + from the market. It's free and is exactly like the stock browser but with additional setting like changing the useragent.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.beansoft.browserplus

I believe you can type "about:debug" into the address bar then open settings and change the default user-agent to a desktop system.

As mentioned above search for ICS browser + on the market, sorry I mean play store. Exactly the same as stock but with added features with one being the ability to change user agent in settings which will keep it that way
There is a free and donate version.
There is also another variant called Quick ICS browser, again its the same as stock but with a few extra features. Personally I prefer ICS browser + over this one but give them both a test drive see which one you prefer

Jup!
The Stock Browser on Team Rouges unofficial CM9 Release has now the option to change the user agent.
Settings -> Advanced -> User Agent -> Desktop
I'm very happy about this !

Brilliant, one less app for me to install

I'm not sure how this important mod slipped through the crack. Should be easy enough as we had it on the Honeycomb builds.

THIS would be a killer-feature in Team EOS Release too !!!
...maybe also ADB under developer-settings ???
Thanks 4 all the fish.

Oh, sorry... I meant 'ADB over Network'... a killer-killer-killer feature !!!
...and... how to remove this §$%#-Google search icon from the homescreen... another (small) killer feature ...ahm, and the user-agent-string ?
I am new to Android development and i compare Team EOS and CM9 Rom now.

Look for ua string in the next couple days. As for adb wireless, its a maybe. Its sorta popular but meh. I wrote it for our honeycomb builds so its a easy mod. Ill ask solarnz about it. But really, ssh over wifi is far better.
We never use stock launcher so it is somewhat neglected. Ill see if I can hide search. Seems I've heard of that mod before.

[REQ] Stock browser with user agent

Running Malvarious 1.2 but somewhere (in a different rom) I remember seeing a rom that had user agent options in the browser. I like iPhone mode because the browser tries too hard to be desktop or bigger than it is.
If anyone has any suggestions on where to get a stock, modded in such a way browser, I'd appreciate it.
No I dont want Dolphin HD, Opera, etc. STOCK BROWSER.
Thanks in advance!

Have you tried doing this?
In the address bar type about:useragent it then pops up with some other stuff to try and see if it fits your needs.

FANTASTIC! Thanks!!
I used to type about:useragent all the time. However, now i just replaced the zeus browser with the one from aeon 1.1 and there is a useragent setting in the menu so it's much easier.

Does it still have the zeus theme to it though? I want the zeus theme and the multiple agents. I don't want to be typing about:useragent all the time. And to make my request even more menacing, incognito mode?

[App] Opera Mobile 12 w/ Extension Suopport! [4/2]]

“Extensions come to Opera Mobile”
So I decided to do a search today to see if there was a way to enable extensions on Opera Mobile. In a stroke of luck, I just happened to find a post made today in the Opera dev site that has a link to a build of Opera Mobile 12 with support for extensions.
It has been working well on my Motorola Xoom 4G.
Link to apk: http://www.opera.com/download/get.pl?id=34585&sub=true&nothanks=yes&location=360
Link to the article: http://dev.opera.com/articles/view/extensions-opera-mobile-labs/
Tips:
To transfer and back up your Opera bookmarks without the need of Opera Link:
Requirements: Must be rooted!
Transfer Bookmarks from Opera Mobile 12 to Opera Mobile 12 w/Extension:
Use Rootexplorer to copy the “all” file from “/data/data/com.opera.browser/opera/etc/2/” to “/data/data/com.opera.browser.extensions/opera/etc/2/”
Backup Bookmarks from Opera Mobile 12 or Opera Mobile 12 w/Extension:
Use Rootexplorer to copy the “all” file from “/data/data/com.opera.browser/opera/etc/2/” or “/data/data/com.opera.browser.extensions/opera/etc/2/” to a desired location on you Sd Card of eternal storage.
Extra:
Here is a list of extensions that I have installed to improve my browsing experience.
Ghostery: block scripts from companies that you don't trust, delete local shared objects, and even block images and iframes.
WOT: shows you which websites people trust for safe surfing, shopping and searching on the web.
NoAds: Extension blocks external scripts, specific global script functions and variables, elements of a page
ContentBlockHelper (English): block any elements by CSS selector rules and more automatically.
SaveFrom.net helper: Helps you to download files.
Further Customization:

(Ads Blocking section is not needed if you use the ContentBlockHelper Extention)

Wow.. This almost makes me switch from stock/Dolphin..
I need to have an extension with icon to get me to the startpage with my bookmark quick link list. Anyone knows if there is such an extension?
I know its sort of a luxury problem. But i dont want to hit "menu" "startpage" just to get to my startpage..
Also.. Is there any fiddling besides just installing the adblock noads extension? For me the extension does nothing..
Which adblock did you install? Try to go to "Extensions" --> "Adblock" and check the settings. I use "Opera AdBlock". (This one)

I believe NoAds is better for opera. Ad block is great on fire fox but I believe I read that it didn't port over well to opera or chrome.

That might be, but it works without any problems here. BUT it doesn't hurt to try something new, so i'll take a look at NoAds. You win!
Edit: It works but what the hell is up with the gigantic icon under the adressbar? NO BUENO!
Edit2: Doh! scratch that! I didn't know that the bar under the adressbar is the add-on bar for installed add-ons. Silly me indeed!

1. An "FC" means "Force Close" or when an app stops working and is closed by the OS.
2. It can be yes, it worked before, I just need to figure out what I did differently

Speaking of, I pulled another browser logcat today and saw a reference to vending app (Google Play) so it could be caused by the Jelly Bean market app..

You tried out Holo Locker from the market? It will be packaged with 1.5 & if I can merge it into my current framework, it will just be another option in settings :good:
& Yeah I know, it has been pretty heavily modified cuz the regular version is filled with gingerbread. Just freeze or uninstall it and update. (system/app/com.google.android.music-1.apk)
If I can find time, I'll have the updated version themed instead for 1.5.
Holo Locker seems to be at least 10x better than WidgetLocker in performance but if it was ONLY a little bit more configurable, it would be just sweet. Looking forward to the upcoming releases Mac.

I seem to get the Bluetooth bug more often after upgrading to 1.4, I don't mind it much( i just restart and it works again) but was wondering if you are planing a fix or it's a GB unfix-able thing(because it is persistent in every GB rom with custom toggles)

ok cool stuff
Currently on AOKP, because... I dunno I wanted to see what r4ins was working with and it's a bit smoother than Paranoid. I have a blanket DPI of 180 with a market that fixes DPI incompatibility so no need to switch back yet.
However I do love Paranoid (great job gs2user) so I remember my settings.
Tablet UI (small) although to be honest the phone styled notification center is better
Status bar 185
Lockscreen 180
Default apps to 185
Calendar and email look the best in Tablet mode. I changed settings back to phone UI.

I thought I'd add my own configuration preferences to this thread. I love this ROM. I've tried going back to other ROMS here and there but everything just seems prehistoric to me with their setups. The fact that this ROM gives you the ability to use the phone like a tablet is awesome. The user interface is perfect for my particular needs / wants. Not to mention the ROM is quick and smooth. Here are some screenshots to illustrate what my setup looks like and what settings I used to get it. Enjoy.

Agree, project butter is by far the best thing about JB! You can really tell the difference when sliding between home screens and even though it's not the end of the world if there's a microsecond delay I'm kind of allergic to lag.
Then new SNote however, is something that makes the upgrade not as much now brainer as it should be because it's kind of worthless (as I have started a thread about in the app's section here) so if note taking by SNote is a big deal for you I suggest you wait until they got that sorted out.
Sent from my GT-N8010 using xda app-developers app
Also not impressed with JB. Out of box JB on my Note 2 is much better.
Of course that this updated brought much needed features, like Project Butter and performance enhancements that Jelly Bean 4.1 introduces over ICS. The Premium Suite is worth as well, the hover function and the multi-window updates were a nice addition to my (our) already awesome Note 10.1
If you didn't notice much difference with Project Butter, that means that in 4.0, this tablet was already a beast. So why complain (kind of), it's more stuff for free, and it makes a device even more complete/bug-free.
