[Q] Configure Downloaded Files location -- other minor issues

I found a shortcut called Downloads that shows you the downloaded files and I am able to browse to them. Is there a way to specify the default location to download the files to?
I would like to download to \Removable\Micro SD\.
Also, when I come to XDA forums and try to search forum, as soon as I click the search field, the keypad pops up and disappears immediately... any one experiencing this?
Firefox keep crashing so I am sticking to the default browser it came with. Any recommendations?
Thanks for your feedback.

anyone pls?

I have also tried to change the download location without success. Not sure if there is a way change that.
Not having any issues with the keyboard disappearing when searching on XDA forums.
I use Dolphin HD Browers mainly for xmarks and lastpass addons.

I'll have to try Dolphin HD Browser

[Q] Browser with Session Restore?

I have tried the stock Browser as well as Miren, Firefox Nightly, Opera, and others. Browser seems to have a session restore as long as it doesn't crash or the Transformer reboot. Firefox will show you what tabs were open before but cannot restore to the same page position as when the browser was closed like the normal Firefox does. Is there any browser that has session restore that works the same as the Desktop Firefox does with restoring all tabs and position?

Wow
Nothing? I was hoping someone knew of a browser that I didn't know about yet. Not even on an alternative market or currently alpha testing?

browser closes w/o warning

Anyone else have problem with browsers closing without any error message? I think ot hapens to on stock rom. I am on zeus now and I tried different browsers but they all have same issues. Its not frequently but happens when u used it alot or open multiple tabs. Sucks when it closes and everything you had on tje browser closed and u gotta start all over.

Its prolly using too much ram so it is killed by the android system. Use a non stock browser along with a task killer like Advanced Task Killer and use the task killer to kill anything using up ur ram once in a while. It helps speed things up
Froggys go ribbet

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.

Dolphin browser on nexus 5?

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 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!
