[Q] How do i re install The galaxy s3's Browser apk - Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello I recently rooted my galaxy s3. i was deleting all the apps that i didn't use and i deleted the browser app as well. I installed chrome browser and it is much slower than the original stock one. I tried many other browser's and found Dolphin to be the fastest when tested with browser mark. I am still not impressed with it as the original browser was fastest for me. I have downloaded the secbrowser.apk off of xda but when i try to install it it say's not installed. I have moved the file with root explorer an placed it in system/apps and tried to launch it again but still the same problem. Does anyone know how i could get the stock browser app back please. I have an unlocked 16gb white galaxy s3 which i have a vodafone sim card in and i have recently upgraded to jelly bean through samsung kies. Any help would be much appreciated thank you.

Wrong forum, this is galaxy 3 no galaxy s3

S Memo for Samsung Galaxy S 3 custom rom

I used to have S Memo on my stock rom I got on my Galaxy S III but I flashed Cyanogemod 9 on it. I lost all my stock apps and I'm OK with that, cuase I got a working apk for S Voice, but I could not get S MEMO.
I tried downloading apks and the /system files (I just put them in the folder and rebooted my phone) but no results. When I instal the apks it says "Application Not Installed" . Can anyone please help me.

[request] cm9 phone and contacts apk

*NEEDS CYANOGENMOD 9, SAMSUNG ONES DON'T WORK WITHOUT TOUCHWIZ FRAMEWORK!!!
Broke the apps yesterday and forgot to backup before I flashed it, couldn't find new ones that worked. requesting someone post the system apps directly from their system/apps folder? and is there anything else I need that i might have missed, ex. new contacts storage.apk, dialer, perhaps?(couldn't find one in my system apps and never bothered to pay any attention to it before i flashed crapware onto it)
PS - After upgrading to ICS via ODIN, my RAM decreased from 0.92GB to 690MB, after upgrading to CM9, it went to 689MB, anyone had this before?

Adobe Flash on GT-P5113 ?

I am also mourning the loss of our favorite Adobe Flash Player in Play Store. Bunch of timids, I say! Give up so easily to that rotten apple? .. I know, I know, the whole html5's grand entrance... The thing is many sites (abc etc.) have not moved over and they do require flash. Not a win in my books!
Anyway, Tab 2 10.1" doesn't want to play any flash content after installing the apk. Tried even few different versions with no luck. Got the blue lego with "?". Does anyone have a definitive guide or procedure to make it work; preferably on default browser or chrome :fingers-crossed:. If that is not possible, can download another browser (ugh).
Try this version latest work perfectly in cm10 stock browser
http://db.tt/TSLOgKcR
If you are in jelly bean cm10 i think will work
If you use dolphin and it did not work try old version of it by side loading
Always make sure in browser setting to make sure plugin as always on
As i know chrome will never operate flash it is html5 browser
So try stock and dolphin or older version of it

Flash will only work with stock browser (or any modified versions of it like Dolphin) and Opera Mobile. Firefox and Chrome won't support it.

Got it working finally! Some content seems to hang though.. for example, watching Family Guy on Fox.com would work until the ads come. Sometimes it goes through them and other times, it just hangs. Anyway, it's better than not having it work at all. :good:
Flash works on my Samung Galaxy Tab 2
Hello,
I downloaded the version of Adobe Flash found in this link mentioned above. It is Adobe Flash Player 11.1-111115012.apk
I put it on my external SD card and then put the card into my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2. I installed the app. I also downloaded the Firefox browser app from Google Play. Flash works in the stock browser and in the Firefox app but not in Chrome. I did not need to use the Dolphin browser app.
Oh, I have Model GT-P3113. I just bought it a week ago and it has all the latest updates.
I was able to watch a show on ABC's web site. I have yet to try others.
I hope this helps.

FYI: Chrome does not support Flash.
Yes as i know chrome does not support flash

Before there was flash support I was using skyfire web browser. Back when I had an HTC hero.

I installed. The APk but it doesn't seem to be working on 4.0.4. Tried Firefox stock and dolphin. Is there a browser that will use this apk? Adobe should never have stopped development and support for android...

Dolphin has dropped flash support recently. You can use lucky patcher(Google it), and stock browser. Have had no problem with using official flash from its site to watch hulu, and others.

I use Firefox Beta available on Google Play and flash works fine with it also.

Do you know what version of flash I should download and where by chance?
Thx for the help everyone!
Yeah Mandi, you can go to adobe official website, and they have it there. You can also download an app off of the market that will do this for you. To make it easier, here is the one I got from adobe.

OK I have gt-p5113 which JB 4.1.1 was loaded today thru normal download update. When I tried to side load flash it will not allow me to click on the "install" button in the apk file. I can only hit cancel. I was trying to get this to work on ICS 4.0.4 and was able to load multiple versions of flash but never able to get it to work. Now I can't even side load. Does anyone have any recommendations? I have this working with Boat browser and JB on Samsung Galaxy S3 SPH-710 but cannot get it to work on Samsung Galaxy Tab 2.
Thanks

[Q] Extract apk so it never updates.

Hey guys. The title is a little weird but I just wasn't sure how to word it.
Recently beautiful widgets has updated their whole system. And I really don't like the new version at all. Thankfully I had just backed up my rom before I updated it so I just restored it back to what I had.
Here comes the question part. Can I take my currently running beautiful widgets apk (non updated) so that if I ever accidentally update it I can revert back to how I like it. Also if I did this could I install the same apk on my galaxy tab 2 and have it work fine?

Try "appsaver" it's in the play store. It has always worked for me.

-Backup the old apk on your sdcard. Most file managers can do this; otherwise copy it from /data/app.
-Turn off automatic updating for the app.
Sideloading on your Note would be simple, but there's no telling how it would work until you do it.
Titanium can do this too

Installing galaxy s5 software on s3

Hey
i just joined xda..i'm a noob so please don't hate.
I was wondering if i could install the all new s5 software on my s3.
I currently have cm 11 installed (the latest one), and my friend installed s5 software on his note 2 and it was just great!!
Any link to a site or any response will be appreciated.
Tnx.

You can't install a software from another device/model on yours. It'll brick it. I think your friend is lying as well? My apologies if its legitimate but I just checked and found no software for s5 working on the note 2
5S rom

Its beside that possible to install a look a like rom
For note 2 see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dU6g2UfjVx8
For S3 See: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/rom-blekota-s5-lite-beta-4-5-1-t2752331
This Called searching
If you find an individual APK to install, you might not brick your phone. I've been trying to find the S5 camera app for my S2. It didn't work, but it didn't brick it.
@jorandobnl
I did. I searched for many look a like roms but i wanted the same thing..not just a theme or a really close one..
Thanks for the help anyways

Apparently Kitkat OTAs for the Galaxy S3 include the S5 theme
You just need to edit your device name in the build.prop file
