Anyone know how to tweak Chrome to render a website so that it doesn't zoom in so much?
Stock Browser:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Chrome:
This is Qnap desktop that I use several times a day to transfer files on my home network. Since Chrome zooms in so much, I'm forced to go into portrait mode so I can see more info on screen when I'm in the Qnap File Manager. The Stock browser seems to work much better. It's just a minor annoyance, but I wanted to see if anyone would know of a Chrome tweak to force it to zoom out a little.

If you're rooted perhaps changing the DPI setting for Chrome in Xposed module App Settings to a lower value (its counter intuitive) will help. Default resolution is 320, perhaps drop it below 300 and see how that works.
I currently run a setting of 256 to get a window width of 1600. I also run Chrome User Agent to force a desktop setting and have manually set max tiles for interest area to 512mb to increase how much memory chrome takes up. Browsing is pretty good in Chrome now.
Already running Chrome User Agent and use the max tiles tweak. Tried a few others in chrome://flags without any success. I'll try App Settings on Xposed. I was running it previously on the first firmware that came with the tablet, but kept getting some graphical glitching when watching videos, so I removed it. Haven't tried it again with the ANC5 firmware I have now. I'll give it a try

Still no luck with Xposed & App Settings @ 256dpi. Tried different options in screen dp as well. Booooo...

It was opera "mini"
To be honest, I find it a bit lame and slow. The only plus side for most users will be that it does have pinch to zoom. But aside that it might be pretty it really is not a step up from stock. Try the muiu browser it is a bit faster but more intuitive.
Loving it
I find this version is a bit slow on loading, but when the page is fully loaded there is no equal for panning around and reflowing text. However, this is the first beta and functionality can only increase from here! I'm just glad to have my Opera Link back! The functionality is better than stock imo, but the Desire Browser is still the best experience I've had on the Nexus. Although I'm trying out Cyanogen 6.1-RC1 and will be using Opera from now on
I've tried to install it but if failed (because of low memory) and now 5MB disappeared... and even after 5 reboots and deliting few caches i still can't return them
I really like it!
It fast, and beautiful.

The miui browser can't block ads. I can add a urlfilter.ini file to Opera Mobile the same way I can with Opera on my desktop and ads are blocked.
Working on getting it to use a custom style to reflow the page so that blocked ad space is used and not just a bunch of empty negative space. That part isn't working so well
gggggooooooooooddddddd
Hi Guys,
If you're one of the fans of LCD density tweak on our beloved 7" phone ;D you're likely to encounter a UI glitch on the stock browser.
I personally love the speed of the stock browser, it surpasses ANYTHING I've found on the 2.3.3 tab 7 so here it is the UI fix, not much but hey! easier on the eyes
Simply push/pull the apk with the one I attached, as usual I gave no guarantee whether this mod will brick, crash, burn, or maybe eat your dog..
Cheers!

That one glitch alone made me switch to CM7. Never could get it right myself. I tip my hat sir and say thanks.

you're welcome!
hey, i accidentally erased the stock browser from /system/app/browser.apk then the browser is gone, i try to install this one but it was not installed, it cant be installed, any help to bring back the stock browser? thanks!
you don't install this apk.. push it instead..
I replaced the browser.apk in /system/app/ with this one. The browser isnt showing up in the appdrawer anymore.

have you reboot? what density are you in? this is exclusively 165 lcd density..
I have rebootet several times and also wiped cache. The density doesnt seem to be the problem. Im usually on 182, but i just changed it to 165.
I just copied the apk to system and then changed the permissions so they match all the other apps.
From rwxrwxrwx to rw-r--r--.

Hello All!
I've been a long time Chrome user and now I'm trying out Dolphin HD. When configuring my home screen, I noticed 2 things:
1. There seems to be no easy way to rearrange the tabs that you've added on this screen. Is there some sort of add-on that allows you to do this?
2. There is a tab that says "Hot Android Apps". When I long press it, it doesn't give me the option to delete it. Does anybody know of a way where I can get rid of this? I already deleted it from Bookmarks but it didn't transition over to the home screen.
If you're wondering what screen I have been talking about this entire time, here is a picture of my home screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
As always, I greatly appreciate your help! Thanks in advance!

If anyone has any bright ideas, please let me know. I looked into the add-ons but haven't found anything yet that will allow me to fix this!
Also, is there anyway that you can make it that when you hit the Dolphin icon that it pulls up just the page you were on before? Every time I do it it opens up a new tab. I've changed the setting in Lab --> On Startup --> Open Previous Page and still no luck.

Unfortunately the only way I have found to return to the page I was on before is to hit my home button rather than "exit" or back out of Dolphin. The main reason I use Dolphin is for the gestures, it makes it so easy to go to a bookmarked page.
I've tried many different browsers with greyscale, inverting, and night modes. But this browser is the first I've ever seen do a clear transparent version before. I've checked all my websites and they all look amazing.
If you like blacked out and clear apps I suggest you check it out.

Here is how I make mine look blacked out.
1: get a completely black image, picture, or screenshot.
2: in the browsers theme section set the image you want as the wallpaper.
3: set the background to transparent

Brilliant find, really. Thank you for the tip!
Thanks for the tip.
I've done limited testing so far (did not even figure out how to set trans bg yet...), but while first looking into this on the market, I noticed that there was a mini UC Browser as well. I ended up spending more time on it than their full one.
A couple observations on Mini:
- good UI, but I do have to press my menu soft button twice every time in order to get to the opened tabs icon...;
-less options but also less "clogware" (or just stuff I don't need really);
- night mode a bit "lightish" in shade, but very good since it doesn't affect (invert) pics as Lightning (a similar) browser would;
- use fewer processes/services and about 5 times less RAM than the full version (and app itself is 10x smaller);
- could find a setting to easily switch between desktop/mobile and it seems like page zooming is not really possible... But layout seems always pretty good;
- nice touches like: top/bottom quick btns, bw saving/compression, 3 file downloads at once, auto-reconnect/resume dl (although this is marketing talk cause some site do not allow pause or resume...);
- more to discover..
And hopefully, we'll be able to theme bgs and text colors a little... I'll look into this tomorrow; can't wait... hehe!
Thx again, cheers!
Does UC support flash by now ? Did one of you try UC sync available for chrome desktop to sync tabs .... ?
That's great I love this one

At first I thought glitches I saw caused by the app (inbox) itself. Then I keep seeing it happens on other apps as well.
It is like some elements (ie, action bar) of apps flashing or the whole screen flickers. It usually happens only a second or two at most; too quick to make a screenshot of it.
Though, this problem is not happen regularly, it is frequent enough to get noticed.
Here are some apps that I remembered glitches happened, it happens in other apps too but usually very quick and random.
In FX File Explorer, sometimes glitches occur during transition animation between folders.
When adding a new Google account in Settings, the big top blue part of the screen flickers.
In Inbox app, sometimes tips bar just keep flashing for almost 2 seconds when I closed it.
And, in A Better Camera app, this can happen sometime:

I'm considering reverting back to 23.4.A.0.546.
Even though the old firmware has stagefright bugs, it's very unlikely that someone would use it on me, and I don't use MMS anyway.
for me both cameras are better in .232
and yeah I have these screen problem
and did you notice that the speakers are noticeably lower in music ?? now they are like Z3+ !!!!
I had some screen tearing when I first installed .232, but none since then.
Speakers seem just as loud as before.
I do have the same problem.
Made myself a prerooted fw using PRF, downgraded, rooted and upgraded using the prerooted firmware i made.
Also made a factory reset. Now i'm getting screen tearing while scrolling, video glitches and stutterings.
I saw that at first but not anymore (maybe I haven't noticed them).
Strange thing is that 232 version should be Stagefright free, however, I've runned a test and I'm still vulnerable to one of the flaws.
