Disable Google AMP without root. - Android General

I figured it out!! Sync is very important to me. Because I have a Google Home and Chromebook Pixel. so switching browsers isnt a option for me.
But I hate Amp. Because articles comments never work. So to disable amp.
1. Go to encrypted.google.com
2. Search something using encrypted.google.com
3. Go to chrome > settings > search engine.
4. You will see this recently visited.
5. Switch it to default.
6. Now whenever you load searches. AMP will be disabled.
Note: if you use the pixel launcher like me and youre expecting this to make articles to launch from "The Feed" or google now without AMP. well. this method wont fix that. however. when you launch the chrome app and your on the new tab page. if you scroll down there is google now there and if you tap those instead it will launch articles without AMP

This works great to block amp links in chrome but doesn't block them from the Google app. I have found a way that blocks them in the Google app also.
Go to Google app, open the settings pane, tap on accounts & privacy, at the bottom of that page uncheck "Open webpage in the Google app." This will make the Google app open the links in your default browser, rather than a custom tab within the Google app and loads the source page rather than the amp page.
If this doesn't work there is an app called DeAMPify on the Google play store that bypasses the amp links opened from any app except chrome. Here is an link to an xda article about it: https://www.xda-developers.com/bypass-amp-links-deampify/

here a new working solution for disable AMP on android's chrome
(root and no-root metod):

App Associations

Okay on my Rezound running an ICS leak, in the setting section under Apps there is a setting called App Associations.
And in this setting there is something called Web URLS, that lets you set the intent of clicking on web URLS to your browser of choice. Now this setting has the browsers that are installed as choices. But the major problem is that this setting now opens all YouTube links and Play store links with the browser, not the YouTube app or Play Store and doesn't give a choice in the matter.
My question is that is this limited to the Rezound? I don't have these setting choices on my Xoom, but that is running 4.0.0 and I haven't updated it in a while.
Also, how do I get the app to open links? Reseting the default in the app setting for the browser doesn't do anything, it seems as though App Associations takes over for that.
Anybody?
Am I going crazy>?
I don't know the specifics of your phone, but you might try a trick I've used with other apps on other phones (okay, with one app on one phone).
Start off by configuring it to use the youtube player (or whatever site-specific app you want) for web url's. Then launch a link that's not supported by youtube. If you're lucky, it'll come up with a prompt saying 'that's not supported, what app do you want to use instead?'. At that prompt, you'd select the app you want to use for non youtube pages.
Disclaimer: I'm a noob myself with smartphones/tablets, so all of my advice is nothing more than logic-guided guesswork.

[GUIDE] [HOW-TO] Google Play Movies & TV - Outside of the US.

I kindly advice you to read everything before you start, so that you don't get stuck in the middle of the process. I made it without screenshots, so maybe it's rather something for advanced users - but basically you'll just fake the carrier for the market and use a proxy.
1. This will only work if your device is rooted.
2. Don't complain. I assume that if you managed to root your device you will also manage to set up a proxy.
3. Grant the superuser permissions when asked by "Market Enabler" and "Proxy Droid", else it won't work. Those are apps with hundreds of thousands of downloads --> they are safe.
4. It works for me. I attach also a screenshot that I just took - I'm in Sweden.
5. If it doesn't work, it means that the proxy you selected is not working, simply try with another one.
Now, let's start.
1. Get the Movies&TV app at the end of this post or from the market if you have access to it and install it.
2. Get a program called "market enabler", it will allow you to fake the location of the google play market and allow you to get the movies+series.
3. Get "ProxyDroid", you can get it for free on the market, link.
4. Search for us proxies, if you don't know how to do that click on this link.
I found good ones here, link, simply click on a number in the "raw proxy list" column and write down a proxy, you will need both the host and the port numbers. Host numbers usually look like this "72.64.146.136" and port numbers usually are shorter, usually like this "3128", "80" or "3128".
If you find a proxy with the following "184.105.235.82:8080", then everthing before the : is the host number, everything after the : is the port number. You will need this information for step 6.
5. Start "market enabler" --> setting lists --> long press on a [us] list and select "fake this provider now"
6. Start "ProxyDroid" --> scroll down to "Host" and enter the host numbers from step 4 and then do the same for "Port". Scroll to the top and select "Proxy Switch" --> a little cloud symbol will show up in the menu bar. The app also offers advanced options, like excluding apps from this proxy, or creating proxy profiles but that's entirely up to you.
7. Start "Google Play Movies & TV", link it to an account. It will tell you that you don't have any movies or shows. Press on the market icon in the top right corner and you'll get to the market. --> Bingo.
8. Don't forget to deactivate the proxy and market enabler once you are done watching.
9. You can also do this without market enabler, the only difference is that you will be redirected to your browser when you want to buy movies&series instead of doing it within the market.
The rest is up to you. It's actually easier as it sounds.
If you really, really, really, really need screenshots I might add some tomorrow.
what market enabler could i use best??
*edit*
Found market unlocker with various google play stores from over the world this app is also capable to look for proxies
Thank a lot I will try sir.:victory:

Userscript for revealing entire installed app history on the Play Store.

As of this post, in the Google Play Store, if you're looking at your installed app history, you're limited to a twenty page/180 app view.
I made a simple Greasemonkey userscript that reveals your entire installed app history in the "My Android Apps" of the Google Play Store, which can be easily viewed in a scrollable box.
If you're interested, here are some instructions...
FIREFOX USERS:
Make sure you have the Greasemonkey Addon (link) installed.
Go to Userstyles.org (click this link) and install the script.
After that, you can go to the Play Store, and from the "My Android Apps" section, your entire app history should be navigable from a scroll box under "Other apps in my library".
CHROME USERS:
Chrome can no longer automatically install userscripts. You either have to install them manually or the script must be on the Chrome store.
To install manually...
Go to Userstyles.org (click this link) and download the script.
Paste this url into your Chrome browser: chrome://chrome/extensions/
Now drag and drop the userscript you downloaded into your Chrome browser. The script should install.
After that, you can go to the Play Store, and from the "My Android Apps" section, your entire app history should be navigable from a scroll box under "Other apps in my library".

thanks for that man.

Phone 2 Google Chrome - Problem With App

This is just to inform anyone using "Phone 2 Google Chrome" that the app (currently v4.1) breaks the ability for certain app defaults to stick (at least on latest stock rom, synergyrom, and cleanrom...and probably others). For example, if you are using the browser and google for a youtube video, then select it, it will ask you every time which app to use even if you tell it to always use a certain app. Same thing happens if selecting a playstore link from a google search (it always asks if you want to use playstore to open the link, even after you tell it to always use it). These are just a couple examples of defaults that don't stick that I've noticed. Some defaults do continue to stick, such as an alternative launcher (I use Nova, and never had a problem keeping it set as default). After trial and error, I found that uninstalling this app completely fixed the problem. I'm also emailing the developer of the app, but thought others might find this info useful - especially if the app is not fixed.

I can no longer choose between using Chrome or apps when clicking hyperlink

If I'm using Chrome and looking something up I might click on a Reddit or news link, it asks you if you want to open it via Chrome or if I have the app installed the that app.
Sometimes it's faster just to view the web page instead so I don't usually choose use app all the time.
Something changed where no longer can select use Chrome just this instance, the pop up comes back and you can only choose the app.
I'm not sure when this changed, if it was the Android 11 upgrade or one of the patches since.
For now I just turned off opening links in apps.
Any ideas if it's a bug or one of the many things Samsung changed in 11?
No problem here, go to Chrome and clear defaults. You might have accidentally tapped always.
