Phone to Chrome - Nexus One General

Is it possible to be able to go the opposite way (Phone to Chrome)?
Open for discussion..

It would be interesting, but the logic would require some server service running on your desktop running chrome right?

Phone to Chrome would be great hope they can implement that feature in the future.

Search for android2cloud.

yup, android2cloud works great

Force closes for me

[SOLVED/G2] Browser

Ok so i just got my g2 here in hawaii today. Moved over from the n1 i had running cm6 stable. The only reason i moved was for the keyboard lol i have fat fingers. anyways does anyone know if theres a way to have the g2's browser run in "desktop" mode? the n1 had a option to switch it from iphone, desktop, and android browser i believe. I loved that because i use facebook alot and i really hate that it pulls up the "touch" facebook app by default. any help is appreciated thanks!
whats the point of having full flash support if it doesnt even pull up the full sites by default? it makes no sense to keep pushing the little link on the bottom that says "full site"
type "about:debug" into the address bar of the browser and hit enter. nothing will happen. go to settings in the browser and scroll all the way down to UAString and change the value to "desktop"

This works well, however you may have to do it again each time. I know that's how it was for my Nexus One.

Turn off mobile view in browser?

I can not figure out how to turn off the mobile view option in the native browser. The option is no longer there. I hate mobile web pages and have always turned this off so my phone will load the full version of the site. I guess this is something google removed from the browser in gingerbread. Crazy.
Anyone else notice this and want to tear their hair out?

Does chrome to phone work on wildfire? Can't find the app on market :/
Yes, using it with Opera (OperaToPhone), which uses the ChromeToPhone app on the Droid, but you aren't lumbered with Google's browser on the PC side.

Google Chrome to Phone Extension is a project consisting of a Chrome Extension, Android App, and supporting AppEngine server that enables users to send links from their Chrome desktop browser to their Android device using Android's Cloud to Device Messaging service.
Features:
Send links to browser
Google Maps links launch the Google Maps app.
YouTube links launch the YouTube app.
Selecting phone numbers in Web pages, launches the dialer with the number pre-populated.
Selected text populates the Android clipboard (long-press on text boxes to get paste option).
Right click on links and selections.
Update (15th Sep 2010): Chrome to Phone 2.1 is now available on Chrome Extension Gallery and Android Market in multiple countries. If you had a pre-release version installed, please uninstall the old version first (otherwise you will get an error installing the new version).
Note: Android 2.2 required. Chrome to Phone is powered by the Android Cloud to Device Messaging (C2DM) service, which requires Android 2.2 or later. Supports Chrome 6 and above.

about:debug everytime?

Ok, so I do the about:debug thing on my Xoom because I like to view my sites in desktop view, but everytime I restart I have to do it all over again. Is there anyway to fix this other then rooting my Xoom?
There is a way but only works on the 3G. It's on the development forum.

I did it once and it has stayed as desktop. My Xoom is turned off quite often.
That sucks bc i have the wifi only model(not a big fan of Verizon) and it always comes undone for me.

Same here. Does not stick on reboot.
set it as your homepage and each time you want to re enable it all you have to do is click the url bar and enter

Mine is the WiFi only.
Just use Dolphin Mini & set user agent as desktop and you're done for good.Plus it works 100 times better than the stock browser.

Remove link previews through Samsung's messenger app?

OK, so I've been using Google Messenger for ages now, and I have no idea how the Samsung messenger works. Right now, when I click a link in a text, it brings up an internal Samsung browser that opens the page. Is there any way I can disable it, and just open it in my default web browser (In this case, Firefox)?
Thanks in advance for the help.

you need to clear default data from Samsung Browser
next it will ask how to complete action (select Firefox)
:good:
Sorry, maybe I was unclear: Clicking the link isn't opening Samsung's browser itself, it's opening like an "in app" browser, which opens the web page. I then have to click "more" and select "Open in browser". I've never actually opened the Samsung browser, and it's not selected as a default for anything.

I actually hate textra. The only reason I'm using the stock app is for the RCS and the always on screen notifications. If I was going to move away from the stock app, I'd just go back to Google Messenger.

There isn't, at all. I've checked every setting in the app, trying to find something hidden through system settings but I'm not expecting anything.
