ICS stock browser with larger Quick Controls area

Hey,
I love the "Quick Controls" feature in stock browser (Labs menu) but find the area it responds to way too small. I guess it's optimized for tablets where pixel translate to way more size than on a phone. On my phone I'm having major problems hitting the area which makes it very cumbersome and slow to use the quick controls – not really how it's supposed to be.
So I went and edited the source, hardcoding a value of 25 pixel.
REQUIREMENTS:
- ICS (Android 4.0.3)
- Root
Attached is the edited browser.apk 4.0.3, signed (for installing after removing the stock browser.apk).
For those want to make the changes themselves:
1. pull /system/app/Browser.apk
2. decompile (use http://apkmultitool.com/ if you don't know how to do it)
3. open Browser.apk\smali\com\android\browser\view\PieMenu.smali in an editor
4. in ".method public onTouchEvent(Landroid/view/MotionEvent" find the first appearance of "com/android/browser/view/PieMenu;->mSlop"
5. add a new line "const/16 v12, 0x19" after the one from 4. (0x19 is the hex value of 25)
6. compile the apk and push/install
For installation:
1. Use Root Explorer, adb shell or similar tools to delete /system/app/Browser.apk
2. reboot
3. install the apk
edit:
v2 with bugfix for search released, Quick Controls area reduced to 20px (25 was causing too many false positives with website buttons)

the signed one didn't work on my X10 , it failed .
can you please fix it .
thanks

Bro, both files had: syntax error?

Just curious anyone else only get the incognito mode after you enable the quick controls??

Did you remove the stock browser before trying to install? Self-signed apps can't replace system apps as the signatures are different.

Where are you getting that error message?
While I'd love to make it install next to stock browser I haven't yet figured out how to resolve the conflicting provider errors. So for now your only choice is to first delete the stock Browser.apk, then install this one.

no I didn't remove the stock browser before installing it , I use the iAPK v0.3 to install apps into my X10 phone and I got the message ( install failed ) .

well it can't work if you don't remove the stock browser, no matter what tool you use

OK, I will remove the stock browser and try again
thanks

All AOSP ICS apps require ICS, so yes, you do need ICS.

Please mention it in OP!

Guess it won't work on 4.0.1?
Sent from HTC Desire

the attached apk requires sdk 15 which is 4.0.3. You could edit your own Browser.apk though, it's a really quick job, even without experience shouldn't take more than 10 min.

Tried the apk and added the line with apk multitool. Both didn't work (still very hard to get the quick controls up ) on my Desire s, Virtuous Quattro
Sent from my HTC Desire S

you might have to make the area even larger then (it's a number in hex)

Seriously,
You might have done a lot of good work but what the hell is the interest of SAMSUNG app file manager versus free app like ES FILE EXPLORER https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.estrongs.android.pop&hl=us.?
For me as a SAMSUNG user this app is a basic app and its main interest is that it was installed by default not its functionalities !
I don't advise to install SAMSUNG file manager whatever the good work you have certainly done.

simplicity and comfort rulez.es file explorer is ......(my opinion,sorry to all),i use only 2 things for my files and apps and thats rootexplorer and now the good old myfiles apk.both have less than 2mb,are in system stored,working perfect and need tiny ram.that gives me awesome performance,es are quite big and have so many useless settings i never use or need.i love it simple,lol.

I have that version now already, it was downloaded by the application wed. Why I wanted to go to the playstore was to notify the developer I get FC when using the watercolor effect on lockscreen. All other effects are working. I have Galaxy S Advance with JB 4.1.2 stock.
