What about using your browsers settings? In Dolphin v10.0.3 in settings there is a option to make it your default browser.

All android pretty much allows you to choose your default browser shortly after installing a second browser. In my case, I have the stock browser, and I have Next Browser (which IMHO is the best in the business right now). After installing Next Browser, when I try to open a website from another app (lets say from tapatalk when perusing the forums), it will ask me which app to use to open the webpage. Select Always, then click on the browser you want to use for this.
If you have no use for the stock browser, use titanium backup, select backup and restore, long press on the Browser app, then select uninstall. It will ask you twice if you really want to do it. I've never had any issue with uninstalling it, so give it a shot.
Good Luck

If you want to use both, go into settings, apps, then select the browser app, clear data and that should grey out the "clear defaults" button as well. If it doesn't, then tap "clear defaults" as well. This should reset which browser is default for you. Then you can set the default browser the next time you open a webpage from an app. You can also use two different browsers if you want one to be a "default" (a.k.a. your browser of choice, mine being the Next Browser) and keeping the stock Web Browser for whatever you decide (personally, I don't like it at all.)

Stock browser exit , ram use

How do i exit the stock browser?
I can't find the exit button
I always have to go to task manager and to exit it and its always using alot or ram
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
You just press the home or back button. If not using it or the browser isnt busy doing something, the CPU usage of the browser will go to 0.00%. If the OS needs more ram, it will close the application on it's own, you dont need to. This is Android, not Windows. There other browsers you can download in the market that have an exit button, but with the stock browser, you just press the home or back button.

Opera browser is, by far, one of the best browsers in the market. Check it out.

Yeah, I don't know how I missed Opera for so long but it is either 1 or 1a for me right now. I like the features of Dolphin Mini as well. That and the fact that it downloads to a folder that's always easy to find in my recovery which is almost full already

Yeah, dolphin used to be my primary browser until I tested out Opera. Just browsing websites seem faster. Rather than reloading a page after pressing the back button, it immediately reloads the previous screen as if it was saved or something.
Just one of the things I like about it. =]

Deleting stock browser's default bookmarks?

One of the reasons I rooted my phone was so I can delete my stock browser's default bookmarks. But unfortunately it won't still allow me to delete 'em. Is there a way to delete them?
TIA!

In the market there is an app named MyBookmarks. This will give you the ability to delete the pre loaded bookmarks.
You don't need any apps from the market to delete those bookmarks. Just go to applications - browser - clear data. Open your browser and go to bookmarks. Long press on bookmark and choose delete. I learned this a few months ago, very useful. Hope this helps you.

This worked! Thanks!
Awesome tip!
You've known this for months and you didn't tell ME? LOL!
Great tip, it works!!! I hated those damn things.
However I'm easily confused LOL...... so to clarify.....
Settings > Application manager > All > Internet > Clear Data
Then go to the bookmark page and long press and delete! Yay!
This is gonna clear your favorites and homepage, a small price to pay.
Has to root the phone?

Just got the SGS3 (which by the way is the GREATEST PHONE EVER MADE!!! If God or Allah or Buda or whatever higher up, power that be owned a phone... It would be this one. LOL) OK, back on track now. So I'm coming from an HTC phone and I have a TON of bookmarks stored on my browser that I want to transfer over to my new phone. My question is, where can I find my browsers bookmarks using file explorer so that I can zip it up in a file to send to my phones browser? Or is there a better, easier way to do this??

You can only use flash player with the stock browser, check the settings in the browser and make sure flash player is set to always on.
I can't find setting on my stock browser

Yes you have, just scroll down.

I spent 1 day searching the setting in stock browser. I didn't scroll down because I tought that setting tab would have been on screen due to large screen size. Thanks a lot.
You can also use opera browser. Iy has flash support as well and it a pretty decent browser.

Yup, if anyone wants to use flash with Dolphin, you'll have to find an older Dolphin HD app...but that typically crashes when you try to rotate the video...xscope works great with flash though.
I dont find the need of using flash with dolphin. Its the only browser that lets me see most videos online, in websites like gorillavid, putlicker and other. Dont know if it is because of the html5 support but it sure gives a nice performance. I used to watch the wire in dolphin at night
Sent from my Nexus S using xda app-developers app
For those of you who go to the trouble of installing an old version of Dolphin- beware. Mine use to update itself to the new version all by itself. Even with updates disabled!
not working with opera mobile
works only with stock browser
I have the apk installed. To see flash content I use Firefox beta. Works very well. Only crashed once while watching a video.

I could see any flash streams BEFORE the update with the default browser, but after the update, it looks like the Stock browser does not work with Flash anymore.
I can watch the streams with Dolphin Browser, but not with the default one.
Anyone knows a work-around to be able to see the Flash content in the Default browser?

Just use this along with flashify, which will allow you to open links that have flash running in them in your stock browser. Works well for me for the few times I need to see a flash derived page.
I've been using Dolphin Beta with the flash player, cause I think the newest Beta has some form of the Jetpack.
I use this to enable flash. Not so sure about the add-ons though.
At the very least, it's pretty fast, and it doesn't sacrifice flash.
Use "Puffin Web Browser" for Flash - Best I've experienced so far...overall....stable.

Downloadable Popup Browser

I found this popup browser in the app store.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...ium=organic&utm_term=popup+browser+play+store
It's still in Beta so it's not perfect, but it works pretty well.
Give the developer some time and appreciation and more releases will be announced.
I know a lot of people have been looking for the downloadable popup browser app from the system, but this is the closest I can find without having a custom flashed rom.
If you do know how to have the system's popup browser as an app, please let me know.
If I helped you, give me a thank

How ironic... here we are on computers with internet browsers that have built-in pop-up blockers and mobile schmucks are trying to install or use pop-up windows. Go figure...

You mis understood.
It's an internet browser that acts as a popup on mobile so yoi don't have to leave your current page, you just popup another browser if you need to do so.
It is not merely a popup with an ad.
It doesnt popup at random times, only when you click the app.

Are serious? ... first of all yes you will leave your current page unless you set "open new tab in background". Second a pop up browser you can use above any app, it's a mini browser, it's nothing like using multiple tabs.

I'm sorry it isn't helpful for you guys.
I find it handy especially if im not in a Web Page, if im in an app or somewhere else on the fun and wanna do a quick search, it's handy.
I guess if you don't appreciate or use it, just don't even say anything, thanks.
And also, system popup browser apk on Macks Rom.
Sent from a potato.
It can play youtube videos, can be resized, etc.
Im sorry you didn't find this helpful, I guess im sorry for wasting your time?
If you wont like or appreciate, just dont even respond lol.
That's also basing it off of multi tasking.
If you dont have multi tasking you should probably get that update

Also the Macks Rom has the system popup browser as an apk.
