Text Aide started out as a simple Xposed module called Text Xposed to add 3 options (Define, Search and Share) to the Contextual Action Bar when some text was selected while typing.
But now it has a lot of features which do not require Xposed at all.
â€¢ Define Picking up from xDictionary by @perseus0807, this displays the definition of the selected word as a pop-up. Ideal when you are reading an e-book or a news article and find it rather distracting to open a dictionary app again and again.
There are two ways to do this without Xposed
â€¢ First is to activate a feature called "Copy to define" from the settings. As the name suggests, you just have to select some text and hit the copy button.
It can be easily paused from the notification when you don't need it.
Enabling the + button shows you a pop-up with the copied text, which is useful in apps like WhatsApp where a word can't be selected singularly from the chats
â€¢ Second is to share the text and select Define
â€¢ Third is to use the homescreen widget
â€¢ For Play Books you can also use "Web search" feature. And for Moon+, FB Reader dictionary feature choose "ColorDict"
â€¢ Offline definitions available in 5 languages currently: English, French, German, Italian and Spanish
â€¢ For more languages you can use my app Dict Aide which supports StarDict dictionary packs
â€¢ Online thesaurus with a list of synonyms and antonyms
â€¢ In addition to that, you can quickly switch to Wikipedia for additional information and Wiktionary for languages that currently do not have offline access. You can do this in any language! Just modify it in the settings.
â€¢ Expand This gives you system wide text expansion. You can define a macro (shortcut) like @addhome to type your full home address! Very useful if you type something often.
Just set a shortcut and let Text Aide do the rest!
â€¢ Search You can add a list of your favourite search engines and access them quickly from a sidebar. Also includes a floating browser
â€¢ First way is to use Copy Aide and enable the search button from the notification.
â€¢ Second is to share the text and then select 'Enhanced Search' from the dialog
â€¢ Third is to use the search button in AOSP (based) browsers or apps like Wikipedia.
â€¢ It can also be done using the homescreen widget
â€¢ Share You can do the following things by sharing text
â€¢ Copy - As the name suggests, you can copy it from the share menu
This will also be shown in browser selection menu (when you tap on a link).
â€¢ Dial You can use the shared text to place a call.
â€¢ Open As URL - This allows you to open the selected text in the web browser as a URL/link (if it's valid).
â€¢ Speak Using this feature, you can make (almost) any text on your device speak using TTS engine.
This can be very useful if you're learning a new language!
Please watch the video for a good demo on how to use it.
Xposed gives you additional control. You can double tap a TextView (which means fields like WhatsApp chat bubbles, YouTube comments, Play store description,etc) to force selection.
This, however, has some limitations and might not work in all apps.
You will also get all the five buttons (Define, Dial, Search+, Share & Speak) in the contextual action bar on selecting some text in most apps.
For Chrome, you can use my module called Chrome Selection Patch
Browsers like Dolphin, Opera, etc are not supported
Installation
Download from Play Store or Xposed repository and install as any other app

Overflow button gets camouflaged if the background of action bar is white (Android bug)
Selection handles and paste button overlap the overflow menu
Anything else? Let me know
To Do

Add more search engines
Upload to Github for translations, etc

2.1
Quick fix update
- Improved pop-up: Smaller size and better padding. Must look much better now
2.0
Major Release!
The Define framework has been revamped completely!
It was previously based on xDictionary's code, and hence used "WordNet" database for definitions. Unfortunately, it lacked many words, as you must have experienced.
Now, Text Xposed has switched to Livio's Dictionary Provider code.
Advantages
- The most obvious advantage is that the module's size has shrunk to ~50 KB.
- The defintion is now displayed using WebView, so you can pinch to zoom and select text inside it to copy or share
- Livio's dictionary is very comprehensive. You can even search for small words like is, that, etc. And it gives you etymology, synonyms, translations, etc along with the defintion!
- The module and dictionary app complement each other really well. You have a different UI to search for words, when Text Xposed is not accessible.
- You get proper and direct updates for the dictionary from Play store and I don't have to worry about maintaining the dictionary.
- Livio provides more dictionary packs for Italian, French, German and Spanish. Support for these will be added eventually, but low priority for now.
If there are many requests, I might do it earlier though.
Other Changes
- Toast is now gone. Although, it is possible to extract a part of the definition, I felt the main chunks were still too big for a toast.
- I will, however add a time-out option for the pop-up.
- HTC compatibility implemented. Need some more feedback though
- Code Cleanup
TL;DR - Just tell me what to do
- Ok so first of all, delete the "xdictionary" folder. It is no longer needed.
- Then you need Livio dictionary. Either download from here, or press the Define button after a reboot. It will show you a dialog with the link
1.1
- Fixed Define for some devices
- Changed toast for dictionary data copy confirmation
- Other minor changes
1.0
- Initial

Chrome Selection Patch
This an add-on module which allows you enable Search and Share in edit fields of Chrome
AND Search in Incognito mode.
If Text Aide is installed as well, Define, Dial & Search+ will also be available.
Available in Xposed repository

By “pops up” you mean next to the paste button?
And yes web view needs define option. Added to my to-do list! But some browsers use custom action bars. Might not work with those

I meant the screenshot in my first post. The app I'm using there is WhatsApp. And since you have a Nexus, it should work without any problem.
I'll take a look at your log
Were the dictionary files copied properly. You should've seen a “Done” toast appear?

screenshots
here some screen shots just in case

i did say successfully installed ,it is 33mb 9 files . and i can define the word test within ur app .

Oh yes you did mention that. I'm sorry. Very late here and I'm sleepy
And I don't think there are any errors related to this module in your log. Will have a look again in the morning.

No problem . tomorrow is another day . hopefully we'll find out what went wrong . thanks a lot & good night.

Completely FREE version!
Paid version
Difference between Paid and Free version is mainly in the poweruser options.
Paid version mainly adds lotsa poweruser options ;D
1) Remembers up to 9999 undo/redo operations
2) Control over the End-Of-Line characters (Apple, Unix and Windows tend to handle different End-Of-Line differently when doing plain text editing)
3) Allows user to specify buffer size
4) Allows custom fonts and background images
5) Allows user to customize 6 extra Themes in addition to the built-in 3 Themes.
6) Allows toggling of word wrap
7) Continuous Text to Speech.

Free version:
1) Remembers just 1 undo/redo operation, plus 1 reset buffer
2) Defaults to Android EOL handling

7) Always wordwrap
8) Text to Speech reads single paragraphs only.
9) Automatic backup of 1 file to user specified location on SD card
Version 1.71 features:

2) Edit mode with unlimited file size, and tracking system to resume your reading/editing progress.
3) HTML mode! Supports non html files as well.
4) Text to Speech! I'm gonna use it to listening to ebooks when my eyes are tired
5) GoTo, Search, Replace, Cut, Copy, and Paste
6) Multiple Undo and Redo with undo history up to 9999(for the full version). Also comes with a sliding bar to easily rewind and fast forward the changes you made.
7) Themes! Customizable display; you can specify your own background images, custom fonts, background and font colors, line spacing, indents etc.
8) Landscape mode
9) EditText view with inertia scrolling, and yet no irritating problems of the view rectangle not being called to show your cursor, nor the rectangle jumping all over the place when you try to place your cursor far away.
10) Toggleable word wrap and autocapitalization (if supported by keyboard app)
11) Specify what End-Of-Line chars for saving your files with.
12) Tons of encoding options from ISO, windows 125_, Cyrillic, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, etc.
13) Share your files or just specific lines of selected text via email, bluetooth etc.
14) Automatic backup of files to user specified locations on SD card
15) HTML mode to easily switch between plain text and HTML view
If you like what you see, download now!

OMG, I just realized I published v1.1 on 2011-01-11!!!!! Damn, I should have labelled it version v1.1111

Latest version 1.3 is up!
Major changes are:
- Bookshelf/memo_list/recent_files hybrid system. Basically, you can use it as a memo list, bookreader, and text file editor.
- Fixed most of the pesky question marks by using windows-1252 as the default encoding.
- Added a lot of encoding options from ISO, windows 125_, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese.
- Themes! Customizable themes, and you can specify your own background images (Paid version only).
- Share your files via email/bluetooth etc.
- Built in file browser
- No more popup nag box! :s

Almost every time i try tap for next page, the program crashes
Samsung Galaxy S i9000, Froyo.
L.B.

Hmmm.... this is really strange since you did manage to load the part you are currently viewing, my guess would be write permissions for that file, or possibly an issue with custom fonts or custom background image if you have specified any. Another likely reason could be due to the recent mess up I made with 1.32 to 1.35, where I changed the backup file placement system quite drastically.
Pls let me try to fix this by answering the following questions.
1) Does it happen in View mode only, or Edit mode only, or both?
2) Do the >> or << buttons work?
3) Does "GoTo" work?
4) How big is your file? It could be because there isn't enough space to save the backups.
5) Does this happen for every file, or just one particular file?
6) If (5), have you tried "Forget" on that file, then reloaded it?
If 5) and 6), then as a last resort, you can try deleting mnt/sdcard/.NeedToWrite, then reopen the file. But backup file data will be lost, so just make sure you save all your other files first.
Time zone where I am is midnight now, so I will not be able to reply you until 10 hrs later ,

New version 1.40!
NTW now talks! Comes with ability to adjust pitch, speech rate, and supported languages.
But be warned, I think Android's Text to Speech is a bit buggy, so the voice doesn't really respond consistently to my controls for pitch and speech rate.
Edit: I found out it does respond consistently, but I have to be patient and wait for the next sentence to play naturally, instead of pressing stop and play for instant replay

v1.41 is out. It only patches NTW crashing due to certain Text to Speech settings. Download if you encounter this crashing.

Ok, I think I've solved the crashing problem some of you may be experiencing. Hopefully anyway......
v1.42
- Patches NTW crashing due to your phone's Text to Speech settings or lack of TTS.
- More encodings: ISO-2022 for JP, KR & CN. KOI-8R for russian.

Heheheheh!!! Always wanted to implement multiple undo/redo, but only recently figured out how to do so efficiently
v1.45
- Multiple undo/redo! Undo History bar allows easy rewinding or fast forwarding of your changes, maxed at 9999 steps.
"Reset chunk" replaces the original Undo/Redo menu option.
Clicking of "Reset chunk" is recorded in Undo history.
Note: Free version has Undo history of only 1 in addition to "Reset chunk".
- Improved File Browser
- Streamlined File List interface.
Long press to view the preview, file properties, "Forget" and "Share" options.

NTW v1.47 is out!
Basically, this update makes the search, goTo, and undo/redo operations much easier than before. It also makes much better use of the space at the top which was previously just showing the filename and current %.
- Implemented fast scroll thumbs for browser and NTW shelf .
- Icon toolbar for convenient undo/redo, goTo, search, load next/prev chunk. Long click of undo/redo buttons pop up the undo history bar. Click the % display to shwo the goTo dialog.
- Improved goTo function.

NTW v1.48 is out!
- Fast scroll thumb for the main text box! (Built from scratch, whew! The behavior of ListView's fast scroll thumb was really tough to emulate properly )
- Progress bar above icon bar to show you where is your currently loaded chunk.
- Search backwards in addition to searching forwards. Plus some tweaks to search behavior

v1.49 is out!
This is mostly tweaking the behavior, performance and efficiency of undo/redo, search and replace, and the cursor.
- Fixed search backwards so that it works for single char searches too.
- Tweaks to UI of file browser and File List when adding/forgetting files
- Changed Replace operation so it is more compatible with undo/redo
- Fixed the auto shifting of cursor interfering with delete by holding down delete key
- Minor cursor tweaks and speed enhancement to File List

V1.51 is out!
New features:
- Incredibly cool Viking android as fast scroll icon!
- Even more incredibly cool menu icons!
- Delete command now available in file browser. This should be useful if you sometimes find yourself itching to do some file clean up from within NTW itself.
- Adjustments to left and right indent seekbar range and auto fadeout time of fast scroll icon.
- Self-fading pop up dialog boxes for messages like successful save, successful overwrite, or other error messages. I made the fadeout time for non-error related messages quite fast, but if you still find them irritating, let me know and I'll program in a check box to toggle their existence.

V1.52 is out!
Changes:
- File List now displays the file name only.
- Added shortcut to change "Encoding". Long press the main editing window to bring up the context menu, then select "Encoding Options".
- Ratings button, and my blog address added into Help
- Text cursor will no longer move along with the scrolling page.
- Tablet users should (hopefully) be able to find NTW in the Market now.
- NTW now supports only Android v 2.2 or higher. I think NTW was crashing for for v2.1.
I'm thinking I should probably move on to something else for now. Have an idea for an interesting variation of a file explorer....
I'll get back to NTW as and when I have time, maybe improve the search and replace or the GoTo % accuracy etc.

v1.53
Mainly bug fixes for Tablets:
- NTW now supports only Android v 2.2 or higher. I think NTW was crashing for for v2.1.
- Patched some crash on start up bugs
- Changed iconsbar layout to uniform spacing
- Soft Menu button will now appear for tablets with no physical menu button
(I just hope what I did to solve this did not stop NTW from appearing in the Market Search results.)
Yes, I did it again... released a new version specifically to patch the last updated version , forgive my hasty uploads.

v1.55 is out! You should get this if you have files with very similar names or chnage the upper/lower case of your filenames. File List is also improved for easier viewing of file details across multiple files.
Note: v1.55 should support Android 1.6 onwards
Changes
- 1 touch save button on the toolbar
- Fixed bug of corrupted file if only the upper/lower case of filename is changed when using the complete save dialog.
- Added buttons in File List to expand/collapse file properties. Email me if you want more development in this aspect.
- Help menu in File Browser and File List.
- Fixed bugs of upper/lower case and very similar filenames.
- Various tweaks

v1.59 is out
- Search now allows limited usage of wildcards '*'. See Help for details.
- Replace button is now more versatile. Useable as a paste button too.
- fixed issue of other textboxes taking up whole screen in landscape mode.
Note: Icons bar are now horizontally scrollable, although you'll only realize it if your screen is really small. This is in preparation for at least 4 more icons which you may be able to guess the use of ...

v1.60 is out
- Dedicated cut, copy, and paste icons!
- Dedicated text selection tool. Works like a shift button except it doesn't affect uppercase/lowercase. Single tap on its icon will have the same effect as holding down the shift key. Then tap anywhere on the screen to place the end of the text selection.
- Icon colors will now behave properly
- Misc tweaks and slightly nicer icons
And now, be prepared for v1.61 to fix any bugs I seem to always leave behind somewhere..
Note: For those who have experienced crashes when navigating with NTW's file browser to particular folders, the cause of this is apparently due to some atypical file or folder properties/permissions that screw up NTW's autosorting by date system.
I dun know how to fix this yet. In the meantime, you can simply use a generic file browser to navigate to the file you want, then long click on it and choose NTW to open it. NTW should then be able to open it normally. If NTW still crashes and won't start up again without crashing, then you can try going to your sdcard/.NeedToWrite folder, open your log.txt file and delete the line containing the problematic file path.

Yay! v1.60 was released without any need for major debugging afterwards
Let's hope v1.61 can do the same.
Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you NTW v1.61!
- Sort NTW's shelf by file name, date, type etc!
- HTML view at long last! And with text justification (i.e. alignment of both left and right)
However, HTML mode is view only, but you can easily switch between raw text and html modes to edit it on the fly.
Note: File with non ".html" extensions are displayed using a default template whose font size, spacing and colors will follow your theme settings. If you know how to use HTML tags, you can insert them in yourself to manipulate the look of specific words and sentences, and even display pictures! However, the text that your custom tags wrap around must not contain any newlines.
Files with ".html" extensions are displayed using the file's specifications. Some errors may be present due to NTW's chunking system.
- No more weird truncation between each chunk. Loading of each chunk will now preferentially start and end with newlines, spaces, ".", or ","
- Disabled long press during view only mode.
- Tweaks to copy/cut/paste, select text functions
- Made some icons more informative.
- Minor tweaks and corrections
Feedback, anyone?

FAQ:

Q: What's is "a BETA"?
A: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_release_life_cycle#Beta
Q: When will BETA's / Stables be released?
BETA - Weekly.
Stable - Monthly.
Q: When will the ROMs be released?
A: MIUI.cn release the builds on Friday.
MiuiAndroid try to get the builds out on Friday but it could be a long as Sunday.

Q: When will the change log be released?
A: MIUI.CN release the change logs on Friday.
MiuiAndroid try to get the translated version of the change log out on Friday.
Q: Do I need to wipe?
A: If you are coming from other MIUI based ROMs then you only need to wipe the caches, not data. If you are coming from other ROMs then you need to wipe the caches and data.
Q: I see Chinese text! What do I do?
A: Reset, if it's still there, report it here but there isn't much I can do about it if its a missing translation as I do not speak Chinese myself but I will pass it onto the people that do.
Q: XYZ game doesn't work
A: The Milestone is ageing hardware and you could class it as a Gen 2 device (and Gen 4 coming out at Christmas this year) and due to this, some apps (such as games) may not run so well on the Milestones hardware.
Some users recommend using this app to try and get some games (such as Cut The Rope) to work; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1087427
Some users recommend disabling JIT as well as this should free up some RAM;
/system/build.prop

dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:fast

It's just too heavy for the Milestone. You can flash the old Market here; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17189832&postcount=886
I am thinking about including the old Market by default and I would like your views on it.
Q: Will you add XYZ language?
A: I wont be as I feel (as I only speak English) that the quality of the build would decrease.
You can found other languages here: http://en.miui.com/download.html
Q: Will you include an OTA update option?
A: I want to but, but the cost of bandwidth is something I can not currently afford - any suggestions would be highly welcomed.
Q: Why won't you add any new features?
A: Simply because I do not have the time or equipment to code and debug.
Q: Is the DSI fix in your releases?
A: Yes. Since 1.6.24 MIUI.cn include it.

Currently. no but it will be!

Nice work danny and skadude
Keep up the great work

Is it possible to extract the keyboard fix from your rom, and if so, which files are to be extracted?
I have a well working german 1.6.24 rom which just lacks the keyboard fix.

I reckon you refer to the wrong fix. The problem in the German ROM comes from the use of the HTC_IME-keyboard, as far as I can see.
Danny_Android doesn´t use this nor the Gingerbread keyboard eyebee usually featured in his ROMs, he just has the standard Miui keyboard.
But maybe I am wrong.

The keyboard included in this ROM is eybee's Gingerbread keyboard. You would have to extract LatinIME.apk from system/app and libjni_latinime.so from system/lib

I'm not aren't currently taking requests. I want to understand the Android system a little better first before making big changes.
This may help you, I saw an app here a few months ago where it uses the proximity sensor to unlock the phone (i.e. you swype your hand over the screen).

That refers to your ROM, right? Yours and DannyDroid´s are two different ones, or am I on the wrong track?

Yes, that is for my ROM. The only difference between mine and Danny's is the keyboard I believe. I would like to release one single version, so perhaps Danny and I can combine forces to get something sorted out.

We will do, it's just all a little messy at the moment and my lack of free time isn't helping.

But the good news is that Skadude´s keyboard might be the solution for PhatUgly´s problem then!

Remove the 07app2ext and 05mountsd files from the /system/etc/init.d folder before flashing the rom and you dont have apps2ext.

Me confused: If he didn´t remove these files, but didn´t have an ext-partition on his SD, nothing would happen, or would it cause problems?

[APP][ICS+] ContactsNotification +Sidebar v2.00 Final

I present here a new app.
It allows you to choose up to eight contacts, which will be shown in a notification or a configurable sidebar. Tapping the contacts will allow you to call, message, whatsapp, email or many other things. This allows a faster workflow when you need to call someone when you are doing other things.
Just install the apk, open the Contacts Notification app, choose your contacts and press update.
The notification will automatically appear after a reboot, so you only need to do this once or to change your favorite contacts.
I promise I am not storing or doing anything with your contacts.
Market link:
Contacts notification +sidebar
Custom themes:Go to your sdcard, folder ContactsNotification/overlays.
There create a folder, for example, mytheme.
Into that theme add a border.png, sms.png and phone.png file. They must be 500x500px png files. pohne.png and sms.png must have border if you want it to show. A sample file, called "holo by dapaua.zip" is included.
To show the sidebar (if enabled) , just slide your finger over the trigger area.
Code:
TASKER support.
am startservice -a com.dapaua.contactsnotification.ACTIONS -e action ACTION_NAME
Where ACTION_NAME is:
POST_NOTIFICATION. Posts or refreshes the notification
HIDE_NOTIFICATION. Hides the notification
ENABLE_SET_A. Enables contact set A. Use POST_NOTIFICATION afterwards
ENABLE_SET_B. Enables contact set B. Use POST_NOTIFICATION afterwards
Use of this command line with Tasker:
Create a new task, call it CN_enable_A.
Add an action of the type Script - Run Shell.
in command , type:
am startservice -a com.dapaua.contactsnotification.ACTIONS -e action ENABLE_SET_A ; am startservice -a com.dapaua.contactsnotification.ACTIONS -e action POST_NOTIFICATION
if you are using the sidebar, type only:
am startservice -a com.dapaua.contactsnotification.ACTIONS -e action ENABLE_SET_A
Create a new task, call it CN_enable_B.
Add an action of the type Script - Run Shell.
in command , type:
am startservice -a com.dapaua.contactsnotification.ACTIONS -e action ENABLE_SET_B ; am startservice -a com.dapaua.contactsnotification.ACTIONS -e action POST_NOTIFICATION
if you are using the sidebar, type only:
am startservice -a com.dapaua.contactsnotification.ACTIONS -e action ENABLE_SET_B
Use these two tasks to change the sets on the notification. You can use it with a timer, or position, or whatever. I am not going to explain how tasker works. I implemented this because I was asked to and I found it interesting.

Should show facebook too. It should show all linked accounts and services for the contacts.
I'll add screenshots next week.

Updates
I added the market link, it'll work in some hours, according to google. Also added the required screenshots. Enjoy.

Nice idea but shame it's only for ICS. I still have Atrix on Gingerbread. :/

Cute and quick!
Since no text is displayed, for most contacts, I only have the default avatar-icon. So it alternates two gray-scales but that does not tell me the contacts.
For contacts with no avatar or picture, could have or text (may be option with pic as well!) or a way to choose one of a few icons. Of course, I should just take some pictures and use them.
BTW, one of Nokia's weird half-touch GUIs used such a scheme for its contacts.

You are right, I am thinking about showing text for contacts with no picture.
But you should definitely add pictures to your contacts. They will show on all your android devices, and even on your computer if you use gmail. I know that it is a time investment to set all your contact info, merging all contacts (you know "dad home", "dad mobile" ) . But it will make your phone much more useful if you do.
I didn't know Nokia phones did that.
Thanks for the suggestions.

I just checked out both your apps at the play store. Great ideas and potential.
Keep up!

I don't know if it's just my phone/set up (Evo 4G, Evervolv JB nightly 02/18/2013), but when I tap the icon in the notification drawer, I have to pull the drawer up manually to get to that contact; if this is how it's supposed to work, it'd be helpful if it automatically pulled the shade up so your contact is waiting there for you. Other than that, cool app and very handy!

It should automatically fold the notification drawer. It did in my trials. I don't know why is it not working for you.

Another idea: Than 4-5 would be too much but the alternative for those who really do want more would be ... slide 'em. I think Nokia's widget works that way.

I could add more contacts, I just thought four were enough. In my screen more than four wouldn't fit, though.
I cannot make them slide, because notifcations cannot be laterally scrolled. They can be expanded in JB, but I don't have a JB phone to try it, and the emulator doesn't really work properly.
Thanks for the suggestions.

Nice app! I have two feature requests:
1. Can you remove the icon in status bar? I like to see the carrier name and on my AT&T Samsung GS3 your app icon replaces that.
2. Could you add a feature to configure a default action for a contact such as "call mobile" or "call home" or "sms", etc? I'd like to just hit the icon and have it start dialing. If you can do this you want want to add some overlay text or an icon to indicate the action (a phone or text icon).

Great app with a lot of potential.
Some suggestions (also mentioned by some other users)
1.Give option to show or not the icon in taskbar
2.Allow to choose default actions when icon is pressed for direct calling
3.Give option to show selected contacts OR latest contacts from call log (it will give the program a call notification function also) !
4.Fix the total look especially in the settings and a quick way to access them (maybe put small settings icon-half size,before the 5 contact pictures.
5.Translate it If you want Greek i can do it for you
Thanks and keep up the good work :good:

It happens with Galaxy note 1, I tried with one and the same thing happened. It is because some sort of bug in samsung Contacts app, that's why it is contacts that FC and not my app. I don't know how to fix or go around that bug. I am sorry.

Pretty interesting so far, some things:
-Youtube cant do fullscreen
-Why does it always search in this sp engine even URLs
-Adblock would be cool

Nice design. Has basic features with some extras. Is it just me or scrolling's not smooth enough?

Thanks for your response...
To open a url you had to beginn with "http..." I changed this in the current version now "www..." is enough. I don't think that I will implement Adblock because there are several apps, which can do this better.
Update V2:
- YouTube now can open fullscreen
- opening urls is easier

Thanks @Gaukler_Faun for this new FLOSS app!
I'm going to install your browser and I'll post a feedback ASAP.
Added to my list
EDIT: which license do you use?

I will use gpl v3. If I have time today I will add it on github. As said it is planned to be released on F-Droid. At the moment I'm working on the context menu for the lists and some ui improvenents.
If since then no new issues are reported I'm going to release the app.
Thanks for your feedback and adding the app to your list.

Good idea. Threads are full of adblock questions once it's implemented...
This is a great browser with interesting features (save screenshot of the whole web page is useful).
Some suggestions/questions:
• There's no tabs. Do you plan to add them?
• Enable/Disable Javascript per website
• User agent
• Edit bookmark
• Set a homepage
• Export / Import bookmark
• Hide status bar while browsing (optionnal)
• Text reflow
• Unable to select the current URL from the omnibox (pressing the URL bar to search is not a good idea IMHO)
• Swipe to the bottom from the URL bar also closes the app (not explained in the Help menu)
• Pinch in isn't handy sometimes because the app wants to refresh.
• Unable to access to the General settins while browsing. I have to close the app to return to the first screen.
• I checked Form data in the general settings but I have nothing in 'Open PassStorage' after being logged in to XDA.
• Why do we always have https://www.startpage.com in the Open passStorage window?

Hi! I tried your browser (release and release2) and it seems to be fast and lightweight to open. :highfive: But whenever I tap on the magnifier, app FC. :crying: No matter if I write a word or a URL in the search box. I'm on my Moto G 2014, CM12.1, and xposed. Others webview-based web browsers work fine in my device. Any idea what could be the problem? Thanks!

Do you have a FC while searching something with your default search engine or a term on a web page?
No issue with my Nexus 5 - AOSP 6.0.1 - Xposed. Could you provide a log?

Hi, there! As I said, I have others webview-based browsers and they work fine, whether I search for a term or for a URL in their own search bar. And I don't have any default search engine such as Google search bar, if that's what you meant. About the log, as I'm a complete noob, I downloaded AndyLog to create one (it's in XDA ). This is my first time with logs so, please be gentle, and I don't know if it's going to be useful at all :silly:. Please, tell me if there's anything else I can do to help. Keep up the good work! :good:

There's no specific bar for each search engine. You can define one in the general settings and it is used when searching something from the URL bar.
Thanks for the log. FYI you could use MatLog (open source) and here is a tutorial to record a log: Easiest Way to Utilize Matlog

Thanks for your suggestion on Matlog. It's easy to use. :victory: So I upload the log with this tool too, just in case its logs are more useful. :highfive: No hurry, of course, but do you -or OP- have any idea why it FCs when searching? Thanks!:good:

You did a fresh install
you opened the app
you clicked the search icon the first time
you entered something in the edittext field
when you click the second time the app crashes
It seems to be a problem with the keyboard ... At the moment I'm looking at it ...

Hi! Yes, that's right. I did that process with release and release2 apk, fresh install, and both apk crashes at the moment of making the search. With or without the keyboard on display. I'm currently using swiftkey keyboard. Good luck :fingers-crossed: and thanks :good: for your hard work!

There's no tabs. Do you plan to add them?
I don't even know if it is possible to implement tabs in a webview. It is not the normal way without tabs, but if you are used to it you don't miss them. The history and readLater list are a good replacement. So I don't plan to integrate tabs.
Enable/Disable Javascript per website
I thought about it and have some ideas to implement. But I think it's a lot of work ... So maybe some time in future... You can "quicktoggle" javascript in the settings (will be "retoggelt" when you restart the app.
User agent
I tried to implement it but with no success. User agents seemed to be controlled over javascript interfaces on the websites. Also different websites have different ways to recognize the useragent (link).
Edit bookmark
Is implemented (long click on a entry).
Set a homepage
At the moment i don't want to implement.
Export / Import bookmark
Implemented in the settings (backup/restore).
Hide status bar while browsing (optionnal)
Good idea and not much work. Will be implemented. Do you mean only statusbar or also the omnibox?
Text reflow
Google removed this feature from webview with KitKat.
Unable to select the current URL from the omnibox
That I won't change. You can copy the link in the clickboard over the menu (share).
Swipe to the bottom
removed in latest release (v3).
Pinch in isn't handy
There are also some other minor bugs while webview is loading. I will work on it...
Unable to access to the General settins
Implemented in current version (v3)
I checked Form data
Google also removed saving password in a webview. Some websites (p.e. github) are storing the login data in cookies. Enabling cookies solves the problem on some sites. When I implement the whitelist for javascript, there will be also on for cookies... You can save a website in the passStorage over the menu (save website). There you can enter login data. Login data will then be copied to the clipboard (just try it out). The passStorage list has also a long click menu.
Why do we always have...
This is needed to create the databases. There must be at least one entry per list. When you saved more than one entry you can delete the default entry...
Again big thanks to you for testing my app and making suggestions to improve it. As you see some things are already done.
Regards
Gaukler Faun

New update v3
v3:
quick settings in the browser
Android N app shortcuts
ui improvements (edit bookmarks, enter login data)
some minor improvements
Please make a clean install. There are many changes under the hood...
 @CLPose I didn't find a solution until now. Perhaps you should use the default keyboard and try it with the new version. I changed some code concerning the keyboard...

Hi, @Gaukler_Faun! I did a clean install of version 3 and it FCs as well with Swiftkey keyboard and with CM AOSP default keyboard. So sorry! Attached, you can find log of browser V3 with AOSP keyboard. Thanks! :good:

Some features I suggested are available with Lightning/JumpGo browsers (MPLv2). It may help you to add more features.

1. Actually tabs are very useful (that's why we have them in most of web browsers ). For instance, you are on a forum and you have to do some tests on the website. You need 2 tabs to switch between the website and the forum.
Tabs are also handy when opening several websites from a RSS feed.

Hey everyone. I'm the developer behind Fishpowered browser. I've been working on this in my spare time for the past couple of years and am starting to feel more comfortable in sharing my progress!
Here are some reviews from the Play store to whet your appetite...
This is THE BROWSER! There is simply nothing like it out there! I'm a geek obsessed browser lover and I cannot believe it! It has it all! Speed, customisation, takes very little space! And the cats on top of all as if it wasn't enough with just being the best there is!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Epic!! Developers might have gone and made the best browser app for Android. Customisation options are great.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Im absolutely blown away how good this browser is, and its super user friendly. And I really love the gestures. Keep up the awesome work.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I've totally just over hyped it but I needed your attention. This is actually my first android app (I'm a web dev by trade) and my technical abilities don't match my ambition yet, but it's getting a little closer with every release!
Why should you care about Fishpowered browser?
There are browser conventions that are widespread and probably shouldn't be e.g. UI layouts that require hand gymnastics, "bookmarks", browsing history etc. I've tried to re-design everything with a fresh pair of eyes.
What are my motivations?
Having a successful project
Building something that protects my privacy and lets me uninstall many other apps on my phone
Making a browser that gets rid of all the spammy cr*p you see on sites these days
Helping people out with internet addiction and responsible internet/phone usage. This is not something that's actually in the browser yet (I've been trying to build a solid base first) but is coming in the future and I have some interesting ideas for it.
Making a browser that works well with one hand
Making a browser that's good for language learning (I'm trying to learn Finnish)
How do I make money?
I don't. There is zero ads/spyware/crapware and there never will be. If it ever gets really popular (maybe 100k+ active users? I dunno haha) I would monetise it by selling themes and accepting donations. Nothing that compromises anyone's privacy. But I only have a few hundred users so I guess that's not likely to ever happen.
Is it open source?
Nope, not while it's still being developed. You can follow the development and see the code on Twitch though (channel: fishpowered)
How can I trust this?
Good question which is unfortunately difficult to answer. As mentioned above I try to do a lot of coding on twitch. I also made a video where I download Fishpowered and the major anti-virus apps from the play store and ran through all the tests so you don't have to: www.twitch.tv/videos/877039346 If you watch the video you'll see why this would be incredibly hard for me to fake because of the infinite picture in picture.
Do not trust any download links outside of this post and Google play store as I have nothing to do with all those other APK sites.
What's bad with it/still left to do?
It's built on the Android webview component which is essentially a wrapper for Chrome. This has the advantage that you get security updates instantly (whenever Chrome is updated) but also has some limitations as it wasn't really designed for being a full-on web browser. For example, I try to add a lot of context sensitive help e.g. if you select some metric/imperial unit in a recipe, it will convert the unit for you, but things like this won't work inside webpages that use iframes (e.g. Google AMP) because webviews can't view selections inside an iframe. Performance isn't amazing either, if you have an old device, you may struggle a bit.
Lastly there are some other things that could obviously be added/improved but simply don't make sense for me to spend time on yet if they will take ages or are very niche features, it's just me working on it in my spare time.
Features

Having a quick play around with fishpowered browser and I really like it.
Kudos...and welcome to XDA

Made some Fishpowered themed mobile wallpapers as well if anyone's interested...
Download from deviantart: https://www.deviantart.com/fishpowered/gallery/74845548/mobile-phone-wallpapers

Wow, a powerful browser with 3.7Mb app size... Gotta try that

Recommendations
Ability to import bookmarks
Ability to not play videos instantly when page opened(site settings)
When typing an address of a site that visited before, whole address of that site can appear in the address bar
When typing something in address bar, search results should be positioned below the middle of the screen, close to the address bar(to help one hand usage)
When using swipe up to close a tab, it should also check the swipe speed/distance of finger, instead of checking only swiped-to position in order to make fast but short distance swipes work

Thanks for the feedback. Most of this was already on my todo list. The bottom alignment of the search results is tricky though without completely changing how the speed dial works as those screens show all sorts of things and the point is u can filter those as well, not just the suggestions. I will try to improve it as I obviously want it to work on phones with tall screens too

Bruh, this is my new Naked Browser. Love it! My only future request is to be able to arrange the favorites..drag and drop maybe?

Browser keeps logging me out sites after some time. If I go into incognito mode, I'm logged out when I return to default tabs.

Should be fixed in 1.4.0! Never thought this was possible due to not being able to change the default cookie manager but I found a workaround.

Great browser, been using it as my main browser for 2 days and it works well, sans packed with nice features.
Only issue I've encountered so far is that LastPass isn't working properly. Instead of detecting which website I'm browsing, LastPass only detects the browser itself (eg. Fish powered) so it doesn't propose any password for the site I'm on.

I've submitted a bug report to Google. Unfortunately the autofill API doesn't work and the console log gives me no useful indication as to why and documentation is scarce. You might be able to workaround this by pinning your current tab to the mini window and then trying from there as it least in the preview window the autofill works with Google's default autofill

I was having the same issue with Vivaldi browser for Android. I looked on their forums and they have a thread regarding this. The devs on there have talked about this same issue and apparantly it's not something easy to fix... Here's the thread, if it has any value to you :
https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/40036/lastpass/20
Specifically in the last page:
In order to support Android Autofill API, we need to get on Android's compatibility list. How to get on this list is something the team has been trying to figure out, but we've exhausted quite a few options without much success.

Thank you bruh. I understand that you are still learning. I would like the ability to drag and drop tabs. Also, could you make the option to make tabs smaller so we can fit more than 3? I will now go to donate.

1.4.0 Released! Will be available on Google Play Store in the next 1-7 days (once it gets approved).
Alternatively, check the OP for apk download although if you are already installed using the play store it is recommended to stay on that.

what an awesome browser!
My thoughts:
1) needs setting to enable desktop mode by default. the desktop toggle always resets to OFF when you enter a new url. some websites detect the device and forces redirect to mobile site pages and doesn't allow desktop view.
2) backup and restore all active tabs and settings. for long term use and saving all actives tabs to say, an html file or plain text.
3) html content hide feature is awesome, very nice. dark mode is great.
