That's where browser with customizable user agents and Flash mobile come into play.

Oh god there's more things I need to get. I need you and Gray on 24 hour stand-by!

 

Buy on AliExpress.com

Even the stock browser has the option to change user agent. Just go to the browser settings and you should find it.

I already told you that you can add me on G-Talk. I'm usually online most of the time.

Fantastic human being. Where in setting should I be able to access that option?

By the way, in case anyone was wondering, the battery life on the GS2 is much better than I expected. I keep it on low brightness but i've been using it all day and often leave wifi on. I haven't charged it since 9AM, its now 1:30AM and I'm still over 50% battery.

Bah. Just checked the phone, and it doesn't have the option. You'll need to get another browser, like Dolphin or Firefox.

That's a shame. I quite like this browser. What's the quickest/best Android browser in your opinion?

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

Don't really care much about quickest. But for mostly use Dolphin HD browser. But there are lots of browsers out there, so give em all a try and pick your fave.

 

[gray]

I can recommend Opera Mini, though Dolphin HD is also good.

I'll have to continue bugging you with questions at a later time.

True. But we're talking about browers with Flash support and multi-user-agent support. Opera Mini has neither of these.

Glad to answer them.

 

[gray]

Oops sorry, I was thinking only about quickest, and I've found Opera Mini to be pretty good in that respect.

Indeed.

Have you noticed a difference in Opera Mini and Opera Mobile?

 

[gray]

I didn't actually try Opera Mobile before Mini. To be honest I don't really use the browser on my phone that much; I mostly use external apps like news readers to get my online content e.g. Feedly

Also, I strongly recommend Cerberus. Hands down the best security/tracking software out there. It has a web interface and you can remotely track, wipe your phone and SD card, make it sound an alarm, take a picture and record audio. Most of that is pretty standard amongst the security suites, but you can also send commands via SMS even if someone throws out your sim card.

Amazing stuff!!! Thanks a lot gray and Sheik.


BTW, the guys from the GO launcher team have so many amazing apps, although I'll probably use Launcher Pro (seems a bit faster than GL), I'll use many of their apps.


For example, their keyboard is the best I've seen yet, and I've tried a few since the default LG one is terrible (I hate that it doesnt have the comma key on the main screen), I've tried swype, Gingerbread keyboard, slide it, but the GO one is the best.
Amazing.

Wait a minute... did you just say you tried Swype, but GO keyboard is better?

I gotta try this shit out!

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

Bah, you gotta type? That's so 2008.

I actually type faster than swyping I know im a minority

Yeah, I love it. You can also swype on it (although I dont use the swpe function much), theres a different screen where you have buttons to select text, go to the beginning of the text, copy it, etc). You can increase the size of the keyboard and I find its great.

Yeah, but I usually text in Bosnian so I dont know how voice recognition would work with that, plus, what when I'm out? I dont want everyone listening to my messages. Oh, it also has voice recognition.


Its free, I highly reccomend it.

 

[AndreaCristiano]

I actually used go keyboard its pretty good

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

Probably. I think it's quite an achievement to type real fast on a touchscreen.

Fine. I'll devote more time to it tomorrow. After the opening ceremony of course.
