[Q] Chrome-Beta is laggy - an alternative? - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi.
Kind'a disappointed from Chrome-Beta.
Assuming Chrome is no better.
Any other recommended browser? I hate lag.
Thanks

There are plenty of articles online that review browsers for Android, it wasn't really necessary to create a thread for this.

[APP] New internet browser discovered

Hi guys, i just wanna share this new webkit based browser with you (FYI the company is Korea based)
Its still at the very early stage of development, many major fucntions are missing, e.g. copy and paste.
But it loads web pages pretty fast, almost as fast as opera 10.
If you are interested to try just click the below link:

Maybe we can post feedbacks on their blog to encourage the development. WM definitely needs another good webkit browser after iris browser developers ended up working for RIM.
Cheers
Yeah, it does load pages quite fast - but it doesn't reflow text (yet?), so it's not really usable yet...
lol - new internet browser discovered. I tried it for a couple of days about a year ago and hated it. They're still on the same beta version, so I'm guessing there hasn't been any change since then.
I'm just posting this as a warning for anyone that does like it. Don't expect any updates soon

[Q] TTS for web browser/VoiceOver equivalent for Android?

Hi,
I've been looking for a way to have my Android phone read to me similar to iOS's VoiceOver feature. I'm running Android 2.3 but can't seem to find a way to accomplish this easily.
A couple quasi solutions I have found is to use a RSS reader, such as "FeedSpeak" or "Web Talks" that support TTS (Text to speech), however this only works for RSS feeds. Another method is to convert websites into PDF's using Dolphin Browser's "MyPDF" Add-on and use ezPDF's voice reading feature to read the PDF back.
Am I missing something that is inherent in the Android OS? Does anyone have a better app to accomplish this?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Voice Browser Lite: https://market.android.com/details?...dfreebrowser.lite&feature=more_from_developer
This is an excellent example of what I'm looking for, I just wish it was a little more refined. Hopefully this will help someone looking for a similar app.
Hello,
I've been looking for exactly the same solution for a while now, and ended up looking at the same SW as you mention -- but found them a bit lacking. And yes, I agree, Voice Browser is annoyingly close. What bothers me the most is why isn't that one a browser plugin that can be activated only when needed.
Sorry if this doesn't provide you with any added knowledge (apart from the consolation that you exhausted all existing options).
Let us know if you find anything new / better. TIA for that.
I'm sorry for posting in a such old thread, but I was looking for exactly the same app and Google brought me here. I foud one very simple but that can satisfy the requirements of anyone looking for something similar. Here it is: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.benigumo.speechweb
Web Speech doesn`t work for me...I just get FC's all the time...
I think it's really annoying that there is no simple App or Add-on for this feature.
In fact I find it unbelievable. Is there really no convenient solution?

I wonder if the permissions in android prohibit an app like that. my understanding is that apps reallycan't interact with other apps for security purposes.
Use "Voice Reading" app for reading web pages android
"Share" the web page to "Voice Reading" (read aloud) app. You have to get the app from Googleplay. This is the best way that I have found.
It's the highest rated reading app. Remember you can 'share' any page or email.:good:

Android by Google is reaching high peaks of users. There are various apps for Android created by some or the other person. As Android is getting famous and more users are migrating to Android, apps and their developers are reaching more audience and greater popularity. That’s why even non-coders are interested to develop Android apps. Are you also interested in making an app? Cutting down the confusion, here is a step-by-step procedure to make a customized browser for your Android phone or tablet. Using this guide, even people having no knowledge of coding will be having their own custom browser ready for download.
This custom browser will be powered by the amazing Maxthon Browser for Android. Maxthon is a fast, cloud-synced browser with full of features. Maxthon for Android has many advance features that lack in other browsers like custom user agent, screen orientation, private browsing, wap/web option, etc. You can customize the browser with your custom name, icon, splash screen, browser theme, custom home screen, etc. Using this guide, you won’t be building a complete new browser but a customized version of Maxthon Browser for Android. But believe me, you’ll like the custom app of yours!
sorry , please secarch "make your browser" in google
My brain hurts :crying:
Here is your link : http://techathena.com/android/how-to-make-your-own-browser-for-android/
Edit : OK, then http://custom.maxthon.com/
The official website is custom.maxthon.com

[Resolved] [Q] can i install iOS on Android

Hi everyone,
I am new to this forum and this is my first post
I have a Huawei Ascend Y320 (Android 4.2 Jellybean, dual-core processor etc), and I have heard that it is possible to run iOS on an Android device.
I have seen a similar thread discussing this topic... but the 'how-to' link in the thread does not load the desired page
I have also found this through a Google search 'iosonandroid' However the page forces one to make purchases for products and services that I don't want and don't furthermore trust.
So, that brings me back to my question, can one run iOS on Android...?
Please don't knock me for this, as though I quite like Android OS, I need to access iOS apps, such as 'iMovie', and other similar video editing/movie making software.
Android has many apps for such purposes, however, most are merely clones of Androids' stock Movie Maker, which has limited abilities, and can be quite buggy. I have managed to find a couple of great video editing/movie making apps on Google Play, but I would still be keen to be able install iOS apps to broaden my capabilities.
Any constructive help would be much appreciated
Cheers,
Harry
I'm going to answer your question quickly before someone thinks it'll be funny to troll you.
Sadly I will have to say, you cannot run iOS on Android, some developers have found a way to run iOS apps on Android but they haven't released much info on that.
The sites that say, you can run it. They're all bullcrap and just want you to register and fill out surveys. If there was iOS for Android, I'm sure it'd be on YouTube, and here on xda.
So again, you can't run iOS on Android.

Thanks for that Glad I got a 'straight to the point' answer from you, I really appreciate that.
I have seen evidence of heavy trolling on other threads... which makes it extremely difficult for people like myself trying to work out a solution to a query or problem.
And yes, I did wonder about the survey/register blah blah spam on the 'iOS on Android' website. I am glad I did not go through with the process, as it seems especially dodgy considering there is no way of contacting the dev....
Exactly, and the thing is, there is no specification for the device. It just has pictures of samsung and htc phones with the iOS screenshot and then the requirements on the page is based on Android OS versions... And it supports eclair. Lol.
Maybe sometime in future some smart developer will figure out how to run iOS on Android.

You Cannot frun IOS on any android device!! the most you can do is use a launcher or try few apps that (i guess) emulate ios apps

out of the all of android emulators you've used, which is simplest?

**goal: to be able to check/use a couple of apps**

**question: also since android users use other things also, a link to a good site with all software and lots of user ratings and reviews is good**
* like google play has for android
* like itunes has for ios
* like chrome for chrome extensions
* but it's really really really difficult to find non-mobile software/apps/web apps and sites -- the significantly better ones that does the helpful things needed -- and is designed well
--
i dont like asking 'finding specific and good software' questions cos its not very productive
**you gotta get lucky: and find those few ppl that know the helpful answers and have used lots of various software**
so you dont usually end up finding helpful answers
it's really really really difficult to find the helpful answers
somebody knows
