Switch browser key to another browser? - Asus Transformer TF700

I'd like to know how I can change the keyboard dock's browser button to launch Chrome instead of the stock browser, even though I have Chrome set as default.

It can be done if you are rooted. However, I don't have a link to the specifics - I would try a Google search. Like I said, it can be done though.

Yes, I did it at one point... But I switched back to the stock browser long ago (it's much faster than Chrome and it still supports Flash, which Chrome does not). Not sure if it works in the latest version of JB or not, although I would assume that it will work fine.

Words with friends not working

Anyone else having problems with words with friends? I've uninstalled/reinstalled several times. Cleared data and cache several times. I finally got it to log in with fb and it went to the screen that shows available games, but it always closes after selecting a game. Usually it just closes and gives me the option to report. Worked great on the Prime. Any thoughts?

you are absolutely right. thanks.
Strange, I left feedback to ask the vendor to fix it
Thanks this worked for me too!!!
I had to rip the apk from my phone. It seems that it's the tablet version that doesn't work ironically.
now the thing is, when i download it from amazon, google play tells me theres an update for it. so when i install the update, it goes back to being the messed up version. so i have to uninstall and get it from amazon again. They really need to fix this.

Yep because Amazon is really giving you the phone version. Google Play wants you to have the tablet version, which I would want to if it worked....

have phone version, but screen always shows "cancel" and "send",and they obscure my tiles
I could never get this app to work on my Prime either.

Oh good, it's not just me. I installed it, and got notifications from it, but app wouldn't open. I figured they will probably fix the bug or Asus will release JB and it might start working.

Thanks for this thread but is there any other source other than Amazon, as I am unable to download from there in Australia? Any ideas would be appreciated. Thank you.

10.4.4.20 update

I just received an update to version 10.4.4.20. Is this news to anyone? Last update thread only mentions 10.4.4.18.
It's still android 4.1.1 though :/

After reading your post I thought I would check what my version was, while I was there checked for update.
Looks like I have it too.

I*ll be damn. I also got it. This one came quite from the shadows.
Lets see what nice stuff we have here. Hope we get some speed optimization and stability.
Hm, Yes I just got it, too. (Not rooted, so no dlpkg from me, sorry.) Could be the mentioned Tegra update? I hope it fixes some of the I/O and the black lines... Probably not though.
Well, not a happy bunny with this update so far. The first this I noticed is the asus notification panel is frozen.
I did two restarts which didn't fix it. I remembered someone saying that a received email notification unfroze it. So while sending myself an email I got a Teamviewer auto update notification and it started working again.
I had that panel freeze once before but that was just after JB update and it hadn't happened since.
I have been getting that black line flashing on the screen while in Gmail app sometimes. I wonder if that has been fixed in this update.

Just install CleanROM with data2sd and forget about freezes once and for all.
So far what I can tell:
Stock Browser's a bit smoother. (Could just be the cold boot I just did, though.) Didn't hang upon opening or loading.
RAM is making the windows-user in me weep, because bloody hell, now I only have 70MB free. (Android works differently in terms of RAM... I hope. Otherwise this update just killed Gaming.) Setting it to 4 max in Dev options clered it up for a few minutes to 400, now it's down to 180.
Screen Saver won't shut up and go away. I turned it off and its still running. (I distinctly remember disabling it last time, option is greyed out now..)
The Apps list in settings loads instantly without hanging now. Again, could be the coldboot, but that didn't help previously.
Haven't seen a black line, but I rarely got those.
AAAAND blurays in MX and BS lag again. Great, Thanks Asus! ¬_¬

TF700 10.4.4.20 TW SKU Update
Hey guys this is the dlpkg for TW SKU. Rename it before use of course!
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0BzHV-5PwbrubS05HaXpUaWY3V1E
EDIT: Hey guys I changed the doc to be open to whoever has the link. My bad! Was doing it from the tab and I didn't find a way to do that.
So I updated and now every single app I try to start FCs, including launchers. The stock launcher works, as does the settings app. I tried rebooting, and it goes back to the "optimizing apps" screen on every reboot.
Other than that catastrophy, one thing I do notice that they've changed is the firmware update app. It's now more easily readable with a larger font and a big Update button as well as the last time you checked for updates.
Now it's time to fire up logcat and figure out what the hell went wrong...
Not rooted, stock browser seems to load pages faster so far.... time will tell. I checked directly after the install and it was faster, cold booted and it was the same. No initial pause as it buffers the page. Will update.....RL

TF700 browser entry question

Hi. It takes a long while for the keyboard to respond when entering a URL.. I've tried many ROMs and different keyboards, every time the same.
Do others experience this too?

It's odd! this issue only with .18 version, where the work around was to switch to android keyboard as default (instead of using default Asus keyboard). If you are running the latest .20 this issue should be fixed.

I also don't see this issue with the .18-based CleanROM 2.3.
Sorry, on .20 when I highlight the entire URL and start typing a new site address the keyboard freezes and my new site URL starts to slowly appear. This is extremely annoying.

For those who run Browser2Ram on their stock browser, does this fix the lag and chopp

Hello,
I am using stock browser which works exceptionally well when javascript is disabled. However, I loose some functionality to any website with embedded javascripts. On my TF700 I'm finding that it is the only thing that's crashing my browsers and even at times locking/rebooting my system.
As the title suggests, anyone here running Browser2Ram with javascript enabled? Does it still run smooth, no lag or lock ups? Any other suggestions for a javascript fix? I'm holding off from rooting my device to see if there are any other solutions posted.
Thx in advance.

The best way is to provide the percific link to site with java script that you have issue and I can test it out for you with browser2ram.

in desktop mode with browser2ram, both sites are working fine. On espn, some videos are not working due to hulu content, for unlocked device, hulu won't work, but you are not so it should be fine.

No need to "side load" flash. Just download the apk found in my post here Then install it. Make sure "Unknown sources" is checked unser security settings. Then all you need to do is use a flash enabled web browser. My favorite is xScope pro. But angel, mozilla, and i think boat browser support it.

ẁell if i'm correct "install apk" and "side load" are the two terms that have the same meaning

Hmmm I downloaded the apk and installed it. I made sure that unknown sources was checked. I have tried Mozilla, angel, chrome and the browser that came with the tablet and still nothing. In just want flash so that my 4 year old daughter could play her Disney games. If I rooted would I be able to use flash? I have rooted phones and tablets before so I am not worried about that aspect of it. Just wanted to keep this none as clean as possible.
Thanks
