Add overskreen floating browser to mini app list (SOLVED) - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I would like to add overskreen to the list of apps that popup from the bottom bar when you click the upward arrow.
There is an edit button, but it only allows you to remove apps from list, not add more.
Meanwhile i am loving note 10.1 so far... its very usable!

Yeah, unfortunately those miniapps are Samsung specific so unless someone develop a custom ROM that will allow users to add other apps to the mini app list I'm afraid you will not be able to.

A good alternative it's swipe pad. You can add it there.

Why bother? You can set it to appear in your Notifications.

In the over screen browser app settings, there is an option to get it to put there.

My only knock on that browser is that it seems difficult to create folders in your bookmarks and organize them.
Also I am not clear on where it is pulling the default bookmarks it uses from. In one case it lists my Google sync address as if it is pulling my Chrome bookmarks but only pulled one folder out of 10.
Dunno, confusing.
Thats why I use Dolphin. Not the fastest browser but by far easiest to navigate and manage bookmarks.

Finally did it by installing 1 tap quickbar. Added overskreen app to the notification band.
Now I can open floating browser on top of any app!
Awesome!

sorry, I should have been a little clearer, the preloaded matks. CNN, Samsung registration etc...

Scroll to the bottom of the browsers home page touch > Customize Web 2 Go (you'll get a popup) touch > remove icon. And that will remove bookmarks.. that's how I just did it on Froyo..
Most of us don't use the stock browser. You are limited to what stock will download. I use Dolphin HD and had to go check it out for you.
If you only have the stock browser installed I suggest you download one from the Market. They are Superior over stock.
I hope this helped you.
**EDIT**
Didn't see your edit. Lol.

Change default buttons

I was curious if it was possible to change the default buttons at the bottom? I am talking about the phone, email, web and application buttons. I really just want to change the web one to be the browser I downloaded. I am rooted if that helps

Go into your app drawer, click and hold your browser that you want and drop it onto the spot you wanna put it. That should do it.

Folders and widgets

Hey... this is a pretty basic question... but is there any way to add a widget into a folder?
I want to have my music control widgets in a folder, not directly on the home screen. Don't think it's possible... but figured I'd check. Thanks!

You can use apps to accomplish this, like:
Widget Folder,
SwipePad with the WidgetPad add-on,
or Wave Launcher.
Thank you!

Internet app missing

Well I was playing around with my new galaxy s3 today and I went to got use the internet app and I accidentally deleted the app from the home screen. I looked in the app drawer and its no where to be found. Can someone please help me.
I'm thinking it would be hard to permanently delete the browser, but I think I know how to help you.... by default the S3 is not sorting apps in your app drawer alphabetically and it makes things impossible to find. Go into the app drawer, hit the menu button, press View Type, and change it to alphabetical grid or alphabetical list, whichever you prefer, and you should be able to find it. You can also change apps on the bottom bar of the homescreen by long pressing then dragging them in and out/to the trash. Good luck and enjoy your S3... it's an awesome phone!

Keybinding for the TF300 Keyboard?

Is it possible to bind actions to keys for the TF300? I have the keyboard, and the Browser button opens the default browser. Is it possible to change it to Chrome?

You might be able to use tasker. But i dont have a dock, so I cant tell.
Deleting the stock browser and then making Chrome a system app with Titanium Backup may work.

Yes it is. What is the ROM you are on? You must be rooted for this to work. My explorer button opens up my own app. It can be changed to whatever you want

Sadly this won't work. in the code it specifically calls for the default browser. When I get home I'm going to make a little tweak that when you press the explorer button, it will prompt you with what browser to open.
