Chrome For Android Beta - Galaxy Tab 10.1 General

So basically its the stock 4.0 browser with the chrome skin and no flash and as of yet no chrome plugin support. But try it out anyway.
Its never gonna support flash, just like android post-4.0
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.android.chrome

Awesome. Thanks for the heads-up! finally something that can compete with dolphin for pad...

I thought it was ICS only?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1485495

I've been using it since yesterday on the CM9 KANG in my P7500. Have to say I'm VERY impressed. Seems faster and more "desktop-ish" than the stock browser. It surely deserves a try!

working fine for me but.....
After fooling around I can't find any way to set the user agent to desktop. Is there a way, a tweak for that yet? That's quite annoying

Its ICS Only!

Well, if anyone here is not using any of the Kang CM9 ports on their GT10.1, then you don't know what you're missing. No reason for anyone to be stuck on 3.2.

No flash, no YouTube desktop site, no good.

So do you walk around carrying 10.1" device to take pictures or you do a lot of video calls
If the second reason is wat u use it for OK if not U definitely can live without the camera

Lol, exactly. I figured someone would mentioned the camera but I expected it would be a joke. I don't think I have EVER used the camera on this thing.
Oh well, enjoy 3.2 and no Chrome then.

Actually I use it a lot for video calls. Every time I travel it is a great way to share views from my location.
Also with Google goggles I scan foreign signs and get it translated on the fly
Oh and yes I take pictures with it
But I do like ICS, got it on my nexus s and have test driven the Kang. Just that one little thing more to make it my daily driver

The absence of Flash is my only disappointment, but I'm fairly sure that it will be fixed in further versions. For most of my activities I already replaced the stock browser for Chrome.

Adobe has said that it isn't going to support it and that's not likely to change.

Awesome. Cant wait for those tablets....
Only a small glimpse to be sure, but it definitely looks like phone/tablet android is gonna fork. Everything you can see looks absolutely amazing however, like miles above what we have seen on a tablet so far. Youtube looks sick. The UI actually looks "cool." Like futuristic, badass, sweetness. But its hard to tell from a minute video.
Edit: Looks like the video is now private

Try refreshing. At first, it was a video from youtube but Engadget uploaded theirs.
Between my Evo and my Notebook, I don't really have a need for a tablet...but I really, really want that Honeycomb goodness. Dammit Google, now you've made me drool all over my desk!
It looks nice but I'm sure that oems will screw it up with proprietary skins unless google grows some balls and enforces a standard.

LOL. That motorola tab that was showed a few weeks ago seemed really cool! I want a tablet!!!
so what will be the next build for mobile phone devices? i assume ginger will be the last evo update then? might be time to start to look for a new phone in a few months.
Thats a good question. This looks absolutely fantastic, and absolutely nothing like android does currently. I for one am excited to see where the two forks of android take us. This looks like it has absolutely no place on a cell phone.
I still wouldn't mind a port though. My evo screen is room enough especially With honeycomb running on landscape .

Ok how, were, and what do i need to use face time on this thing??

You can only use Google talk to video chat. Only to other xooms or computers.

Face time is advertised all over that it is for Apple, that is why I was surprised that someone would think it was for Android.

NO! It won't the only choice! This Market App is for Smartphones ONLY!!! The honeycomb Market is different and won't be replaced by this one! Google may make something similar but we will have to wait to see! BTW I wouldn't use this app on a tablet! It may be not so compatible!

Gay as in happy or just down right attractive.people from all sexual orientation do use this forum.it digs at my ability to control my temper to words disrespecting people. Just saying bad choice in word.
And yes I agree this market app is prob not mentioned for tablets. Its so awkward. Uninstalled.
sorry op
I tried it early on, and ready didn't like the look or feel of it.
I just installed to my acer iconia a500. The install worked just fine, but I will have to spend some time with the market to see if I like it better or not.
Either way, after updating to Honeycomb 3.1, my market was messing up, even after a factory reset, so it should at least be better than that.
*edit*
I just found out that I still have both markets, the old and the new, to choose from.

Yeah i know but awhile back there was a thread about tv-out.. im guessing vs the headphone jack so maybe while they are working on cm9 they might find away to get it working..just saying.. no big deal but would be nice to bring a new feature to our epic 4g..

My impression from skimming that ongoing discussion was- the final consensus was that our phones don't have the hardware to support it. Despite probably some misleading tidbit of information a long time ago.

Ability to live without it or not, they won't release it. Its somewhere in the spectrum of "unwritten rule of XDA" to potentially a law, I'm not sure. Regardless its a good idea. Don't want a buggy ROM to lead to someone dying!

Adobe Flash on Nexus: End of the road?

I know that the Nexus 7 can be made to work with Flash because they made a version that works with Tegra 3.
Are there any versions of Flash compatible with the S4 Pro? If not does that mean there's no hope of getting Flash to work on the latest Nexus?
It's not that I love Flash or anything, but sometimes you just reach that stupid web site that you can't do anything with otherwise...

For now its useful for pr0n, so it will survive.
Sadly it's more mundane sites like restaurants that are dumb enough to put up their menus in Flash only. Or music videos that are marked "not available on mobile", necessitating that I spoof a desktop and use Flash.
Also for Kongregate Arcade.
