Hello guys, I know that the question which is the best browser is actually asked alot on xda. But I have some special requierments to a browser app. So for me it is important that the app only have permission that it really needs. The design should be simple and modern. The bookmarks should be called quickly. The feature which I really want to have is a function to turn off the history or delete it after closing the browser. Which browser fits best for me?
My device: LG L90
Rom: Stock rom
Android version: 4.4.2
Thanks in advance!
Chrome browser

like harson0203 said, the google chrome browser is pretty great over stock browsers that come with phones. incognito mode comes in handy.

Hey Guys,
I couldn't find a thread about this particular issue atm so I'm going to start a new topic.
The only browser I could get an AdBlock extension for up until now is Firefox but Firefox does not appear to be as powerful as the integrated "Sense 4.0" internet browser (is it Opera?).
Anyway, I am quite bothered by random pop-up advertisement and similar bullcrap but I was unable to identify any feature in the settings that would let me supress it. Is there a "Firefox-like" add-on for the HTC-Stock-Browser?
Please help me...I freakin' can't stand pop-up-adds...kinda triggers an anaphylactic reaction in my brain...
Cheerios and thx in advance...
Forgot to add: Phone is rooted...
Try adfree in the okay store it removes ads from everything including apps
Thx mate! This looks very promising...
Using AdBlock from playstore on a rooted device. Works fine.

How often do you think it is an appropriate time to update your mobile browser?

HY,these days is good to have a browser that supports flash adn html5 because these are the most used formats.Chrome is a good browser,but doesnt have flash ,so no flashy stuff in some sites,but it performs very well,my suggestion is to stay with dolphin browser for the next 2~3 years.
Please press thanks if i helped.
Hey,
Dolphin Browser supports them.
But the YouTube sometimes doesn't work on HTC one. There's just voice with no video. Except this, Dolphin Browser is awesome.
Worth a shot.

I don't like wasting peoples time so I have searched and I can't find a answer, basically I am using dolphin browser on my new 5 and the double tap to zoom and the pinch to zoom don't work. I have cleared the cache and reinstalled but is still the same.
Are there any other 5 users having this problem?
Thanks again.

Has Dolphin been updated for 4.4?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2516385
In that thread, a couple of people discuss Dolphin's pinch-to-zoom feature. Have you tried using Jet Pack with Dolphin? That seems to be what those users are doing.

Says pinch-to-zoom doesn't work.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47317755&postcount=41
Says Dolphin runs fine with Jet Pack installed.

Comments specifically about the pinch-to-zoom feature working smoothly, and notes he has Jet Pack installed.
Thanks for the jetpack recommendation

Yes, the jetpack has been updated and fixes the 4.4 issues. Dolphin has been my goto browser for at least the past year. Every time I have tried something else I always return to Dolphin.
I had the same issue, I installed their Dolphin beta (it shows up as a different app in the Play Store) ..they have it fixed.

Wow this guy knows how to search and make me feel like a right plank!
Thanks very much for time fella, I have now tryed jet pack but still no work is. I guess I will have to try and get used to crome until it gets a update.
Thanks again.
The updated KitKat 4.4 update for Boat Browser and Dolphin Browser are now working on my Nexus 5 running stock rom & kernel. Dolphin with Jetpack runs nice in full screen mode but BB will not run full screen, feedbacks sent to developer via Play Store. Chrome does run full mobile screen.
Just a quick update I uninstalled both jet pack and the normal dolphin browser and then installed jet pack first and was prompted to install the normal browser from the play store and now tap and pinch to zoom work OK!
Problem sorted thanks everyone.

I just happened to be following that thread already, that's how I knew it existed. The search function is often very unhelpful on XDA. I have better luck using Google search and looking at results from XDA pages that way.
Thanks again for the help man!
Loving the new 5!!!
hey guys
i know this thread is unused for a while, but i dont want to open another one
on my gnex i was used and totaly in love with the aosp browser. with the n5 i had to live with chrome, which i really hate...
didnt find any browser that could suit me as much as the aosp one did
yesterday i found dolphin with jetpack... and what should i say? i am in love again!
except one thing
all web pages loading fine - facebook not
i can open up facebook and log in and get the entry page with the overview. thats it. if i click on anything, facebook loading circle appears forever
i do not have this issue on ANY other webpage. am i alone with this? couldnt find anything in google or xda about this
Anyone recommend good alternative facebook apps. Currently i have been using spatio and friendcaster but both hve not bin updated in ages. I have tried fast for facebook. So i neef other alterniatves
First of all, this is the wrong place to ask this. Look for a general android apps discussion thread.
Second why do you dislike the official FB app? Or use your mobile browser.
