Opera sucks, stock browser is so much better.

It is actually better than the stock browser in my opinion, the only reason I didn't want to switch to it was.the lack of multi-touch.

Very slick interface.

I find that it doesn't load certain pages properly.

Hence the reason it sucks.

Lack of multi-touch is a non-issue for me. The lack of kinetic scrolling, however...

I'll pass,default browser is much better.+ doesn't work well for xda-developers.

everything loads weird, and the pictures are off, and no multi touch.
No thanks

Right, but 90% page compression more than makes up for that, as does speed dial for bookmarks.
I have been an Opera Mini fan since the days of my HTC Excalibur and WinMo 6 stuck on EDGE on T-Mobile.
On HSDPA, pages load in a snap, MUCH faster than stock or Dolphin browsers, and when I switch to EDGE in certain areas on my train commute home, its nice to still be able to cruise the web without a hiccup.
But rather than ***** about lack of multi-touch, you could *gasp* email the developer and suggest they add that, since this is a BETA, and there's still time for them to integrate MT before the release of the full product.
Also, kinetic scrolling works for me.

IDK it took me a long time to scroll down to the N1 section. In the stock browser I can do it in 1 swipe.

Check the settings. There may be an option for # of lines to scroll per swipe. I could be wrong as I haven't looked in this version, but I remember that being there for Opera Mini 4 on WinMo.

Nah, there's no option like that in this version.

The pictures were misplaced and all over the place. The words on the web pages were misplaced and all over the place. The images were very poor quality. Had no multi touch. To sum things up, I uninstalled this browser almost instantaneously. Nuff said.

Change text size in settings to "small". It helps render more pages properly.

Go to settings and change image quality from "low" to "medium" or "high". "Low" is great for edge. If you have a decent 3G connection, use "medium".

Considering this is still beta and it loads big pages about 2 -3x faster than the default browser, I'm quite excited. Can't wait for the final and firefox mobile to come.

Well the app does say BETA. I am personally blown away by the speed of this browser. Yes, it does such that it doesn't have Multi-Touch etc etc, but I'm very sure it will come in the next few releases. Instead of crying about broken features on a BETA product..don't uninstall the app..report the bugs and help make it something very high quality.

Anyone else having problems getting it to work?
It launches then hangs for a while "Installing" with the progress bar not moving, then a black screen with message "Unable to connect to the internet".

Lol, but wouldn't that require not being a self-important ****?
I totally agree with you.
Opera Mini 5 beta is my new default browser. Eff multi-touch. I can't stand waiting for a browser to load a simple web page when I'm on H or 3G. Opera pulls em down at lightning speeds.
Speed > MT any day.

MIREN BROWSER Launched on market!

We are on market now!!, market://search?q=pname:cn.miren.browser
Thanks everyone for help!!! It's a awesome experience!!!
We gave credit to all the translators. If we miss anyone, let us know and we will add ASAP.
If you like our browser, please spread the word. Tell your friend about it. Thanks again!!!

Good work wxrjack.

Is the application in English?

Downloaded from Market and its in English. Very nice browser!
Sorry for the dumb q, but can you tell me where to disable mobile sites?

Does it use a webkit browser? I won't use any other browser if it doesn't use webkit. I am a web designer and webkit has the best mobile rendering engine. It makes the world wide web beautiful on the mobile device.

I believe it does!~ Looks awesome!
I'm actually impressed. I've been using the stock browser because every other browser I try to use, sucks.
I've tried using Opera - I hate the redering engine
I've tried using Dolphin - GUI is ugly
I've tried using every other browser under "Browser" in the app market - none are for me.
Search for "Miren" in the app market!
Webkit FTW.

You guys keep changing threads, so I don't know if you saw my post in your previous thread about mistakes in the English translation.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9416982&postcount=169

I just installed from market and I am not sure if it's only happening on my samsung transform (2.1 android).
While in Miren Broswer i press Menu>Brightness. At this screen if i swipe the brightness setting pass the lowest setting possible my whole screen goes black.
I can't do anything after that since i can't see anything. The only way to get back to my home screen with brightness again is if i press home over and over until i get lucky and it exits Miren Browser.

Another English typo
In your Android notifications for when a download is finished, you have "download completes" and it should be "Download completed"

Is there a option to open up incognito window?

Great browser.

Feels like a quality product, but how is it better than dolphin?

It's faster, cleaner, and the GUI is much better (IMO). There are other reasons, but I can't remember. I just know, I uninstalled Dolphin after using Miren for a couple days and I haven't missed it one bit!
Billy

Absolutely classy stuff here..need to work on it some more to make sure but so far this looks like a winner and my new default browser!

I will download it when I get home.
I've read plenty of great comments in the Market, and on here.
I too am a Web Developer and excited that it uses Webkit for rendering.
Can it import bookmarks from the default browser?
----- ----- ----- ----- ----- -----
EDIT: double tap to zoom, and pinch to zoom works great.

Can you implement the magnifying glass to select text from the stock browser? (Similar to the way dolphin can do it)
Thanks
Also, iirc it told me to double tap to zoom, but when I tried that, it didn't work

web browsing mediocre to horrible at best, + task mgr. widget vs. running tasks

I'm mainly using the Chrome browser, but have also tried stock and dolphin with similar results. Sometimes pages take forever to load (especially XDA!) and switching between pages hangs up more often than not. Nothing 'snappy' about surfing the web with this thing.
Also, I am seeing applications in the task mgr widget like "talk" , "PixWe", and "google+" and have no idea why. What exactly is this widget supposed to tell me, and what does "one-click clean" actually do? When I check "running" apps under settings none of that stuff shows up but I do show 4 running "maps" processes, facebook, and a couple of other things. I was assuming my crappy web browsing was due to mulitple things going on in the backgroud but not sure.
Other than this the tablet is great!

Google search "browser2ram". The reason for browser lag has only been discussed for the last year or so.

My browsing is smooth as a ... I don't know, think of something.

Also, don't use browser2ram. It caused my prime to bootloop and I had to unbrick it. In fact, I don't even recommend rooting at the moment for fear of a softbrick without a recovery.

My speedtest results are averaging ~1.3Mbps for dowload and ~1.5Mbps for upload. My wifi signal is good but these results seem lousy?

Light means small, fast and easy to use!
Are you tired of complicated operations and features when surfing the internet? And bored with the low speed when loading the webpage either?
If the answer is ‘Yes’, then you need a ‘Light’ browser!
Light Browser is a fascinating browser!
It can improve the browsing speed, and save the memory of your device. And especially suitable for the devices which the size of screen is limited.
The most important is that, it’s Easy!
Although it doesn’t support lots of complex features, it DOES meet most of the users’ needs. And since the small size of the app, the loading speed is much faster than others.
Features:
1. Gallery View
2. Share Link/page
3. Bookmark Management
4. Screenshot
5. Find on Page
Not only the using, but the UI is also simple and comfortable! Generally the Light Browser will make you fondle admiringly.

Support & Contact:
Making the browsing experience ‘Light’ is our goal! And we are keeping on improving the products at anytime. Please don’t hesitate to mail us when you have any ideas or problems.
We can be reached via [email protected].
Thanks for your support.

I'd suggest you remove the ad from the top if you're saying it's especially suitable for devices with small screens.
It's taking a big chunk out of my Galaxy Ace.

Or, provide a way to remove ads, for example, download a paid licence.

Yeah. Until then, guess I'll wait till it will be removed.
May be u make a 'one time click for today' ads. Means those ad will come back again tomorrow after user have pressed it once a day.
Definitely a win-win situation for me.

Interesting, let me try. :fingers-crossed:

Really small
This browser is really small , I try it just now ,very fast.

As soon as I noticed the ad right on top I uninstalled it. Lame.

Kudos for a really fast browser. Suggestions :
1. Ads should be placed at bottom. As design language says that browsing experience has to be least distracting. And our eyes while browsing gaze 60% of screen from top. So shifting ads to bottom on a slimmer bar will solve problem to some extent. If this free version really wins heart partially it will automatically pave the way for ad free premium version.
2. Please implement holo theme for menus or just design a fresh UI for yourself. But don't include gingerbread design. This makes the browser a foreign feel on ics and jb. Best option would be to go for a signature menu, design like opera or dolphin did for themselves to keep consistent over various os and creating brand impact.
All the luck with your effort.

[APP][2.1+] Javelin Browser - Adblock, KitKat Transparency, VPN, True Multi-tasking

Hi guys,
It is my opinion that mobile browsers on Android suck because most of them are focused on feature count over ACTUAL mobile usability -- With most mobile browsers to be just a desktop browser squeezed into a small screen.
So I built Javelin Browser, extending from the very great code-base of Lightning Browser. Like Lightning Browser, Javelin is light-weight, and super-fast.
But that is nowhere enough. To get the mobile part right, here’s what I did.
MINIMAL DESIGN to be minimalistic, intuitive, and beautiful.
ADDED ADBLOCK natively, using the implementation of Adblock Plus with Easylist.
ONE-TOUCH gesture per action
READ EASILY with a reading mode just like Pocket app, Instapaper, Readability, etc.
Download now: Search for Javelin Browser on Google Play
Official Website: JavelinBrowser.com

Click here for more images.
This is an on-going project. As of April 2014, this is my second month into this. I’m commited to the Javelin project for at least the next 2 years. Let me know what you think!
Next release:
Fully featured Omnibox (It'll resemble that more of Firefox rather than Chrome - The suggestions will will lean slightly towards web-history/bookmarks over than web-search)
Bookmarks.. Chrome Bookmarks import for one. (I personally want this)
In the pipeline:
* Javelin on Android Wear
* Link Bubble: Oh man, I love the idea. But it is really just chatheads + preloading of URLs and showing an overlay of a webview. It lacks a full browser backend. So yes. I plan to implement some sort of Chathead + Preloading feature in the very near future.
----
Addendum (full disclosure):
- Javelin is a forked project of Lightning Browser, under Apache License 2.0. Here's the link to the repo: https://github.com/anthonycr/Lightning-Browser
- As is with the app permissions, the app does register your email addresses to identify you as a user, and from time-to-time, you might receive a newsletter that you can opt-out anytime.

Going to download :good:

Looks great! Gonna give it a whirl right away :good:

Downloading..

cool! let me know what you guys think.

Thanks

A little bug
I'm using the browser right now and there is a bug when Full-screen Mode it's activated the navigation bar cuts a piece of screen, the bug is "fixed" when you open a website but everytime when the navigation bar appears this happens. By the way, great browser! :good:

A couple of screenshots and a direct link to the Play Store would probably raise the interest around here. I bet a mod can do it for you if you can't yourself.

Is Javelin open source like lightning?

I really like Javelin's UI! I would like to see the app icon get changed because it looks a bit odd.

I just tried it and here is what I think.
One gesture is all I see atm, that's not enough. Check the many naked browser offers, that's what I wanna see, similar for the bookmark panel access. Also performance has drastically to improve, it's way to laggy on my NEXUS 5.
But it seems like a solid start so far, I like the design, what I don't like os the heavy emphasize on going pro, seems like it wants you to buy something on almost any click, this should get toned down or it will turn people away too fast and easily.
I will keep an eye on this, I would really like this to become something like a nicer designed version of naked browser which is still unrivaled for me even though I doubt this browser will turn into something similar.

Just have a try... really class design someone compares to naked browser ... The size difference is due to adblock?

Beautiful, smooth and fast! Bro where have you been my entire life!
The only problem I have with the browser is the icon it looks out of place and odd compared to other icons, maybe a redesign would be nice also keep it circle cause circle icons are beautiful.

How come it says "Jerky is the first browser to fully integrate..." under AdBlock settings?

Homepage defaults to javelinbrowser.com - no matter if it's set to 'blank' or another site.

Every time I go to alter the size of an image I get a popup asking "what would you like to do with this image?" Can this be turned off somehow? I just want to zoom in or out. The other options should be accessed by a long press or something.
