anyone know a quick control browser that works with the S4? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Ive tried quick ics browser and ics browser+, but both crash on start

I don't have the S4,but on the Note 2 you could turn on quick controls bungling by going to Settings, Labs, Quick Controls. It's the only reason why I stick with the stick browser.

Quick Controls is not a option under the browser settings on S4... What to do?! I loved Quick Controls, if I don't get quick controls I am returning my S4 and just use my S3 instead...

the reason they crash on start is because they don't support JB. It says it in the app description if I recall correctly

you know what else isn't an option in the stock browser?
Open tabs in background window. what a load lol
However I have chrome installed and you can do the quick controls in labs.
Give it a shot.

How do I get lab in chrome for s4?

I think they took it out a few updates ago.

Well... I actually send my Samsung galaxy S4 back because the browser did not have quick controls (Google labs). So now I am currently still using my S3, with quick controls. Studpid S4, even HTC One have Quick controls.

Bump! Quick controls on S4 have arrived or?

Check out the thread that Royalmath.. Posted above. It looks like there are instructions there. I also found the browser from the Google Play edition that will work too. Problem that I am having is that because I use a case on my phone and the S4 bezels are soo thin the thumb controls don't work too well because my case doesn't allow me to swipe from the edge cleanly. Vs the Note 2 or S3 which had thicker bezels and I had no issues at all.

Actually one thing I noticed, is that you can hold the left button, besides the home button, and that will bring up the web browser address field. Isn't this nearly as good as quick controls?

I have the S4 and I use the stock browser (not Chrome), it has the quick controls (settings/Labs/ enable Quick Controls). You can also install Flash for it.
I really don't understand why the others browsers don't use Quick/Pies controls... that's the only reason why I still use the stock browser/AOSP browser.

Galaxy SIII Annoyances Megathread

Galaxy SIII is a fantastic phone, but I seem to be constantly let down by touchwiz stuff. My idea for this thread is a big, long list of annoyances and suggestions for fixing them.
For example, an annoyance: TW doesn't support sorting the app drawer by name, you have to manually sort things and that goes slow. You would have thought they'd have a better way to manage the app drawer by now, but alas, no.
Solution: AppZorter Lite is a free solution that will sort your app drawer for you. Bonus: I like a nice empty app list, so I've gotten it hidden (one thing TW does do) and just launch it from the store when I need to.
Two that I haven't solved:
1) Facebook has filled my contact list with a huge number of people I don't care about, seems to have ignored the "only sync with existing contacts". Removing facebook users is a process: hold on the user, press delete, confirm that it isn't actually deleting.
2) The default MMS app seems to send (or displays?) all picture messages as slideshows. Super lame. Is there any way to turn this out without installing a 3rd party app?
App drawer, menu, view type, alphabetical grid or list.

The app drawer thing is why I didn't use the TW launcher on the Epic. At least now I can install Apex or Nova in the system/app folder.
Network errors, Sprints fault, not the phone.
Oh, I asked that S-Voice b*tch where she was from and she didn't understand. Guess that's what I get for hitting on my phone. :crying:

TouchWiz in general is just a piece of ****. Still running the Epic here and I cursed my phone every day until I put launcher pro on it and it was manageable. Didn't actually like my phone until I rooted and got CM9. My wife is getting the S3 upgrade but CM9 will go on as soon as it is available. She knows how ****ty TW is.

Pissed that BB had no accessories when i picked up the phone and i now have 2 micro scratches on the screen from screen sliding along a piece of paper on my desk at work.
I hate the purple/baby blue rim around the phone.
Waiting for a black TPU bumper and black metal battery cover replacement from china to resolve these issues.
Outside of that- much more impressed with the form factor than that of the EVO LTE which i traded for it. The S3 is very comfortable in hand.
Phone is way too slippery!
BTW- Touchwiz sucks! i installed Apex while waiting to check out at BestBuy.

maybe because the Korean version is already released, it has a newer version witch supports this feature, and the intl' will also support it.
but its not based on anything.. only me :cyclops:
I also think that the craftsmen will find a way)
That will be really disappointing if its only on the Korean Note 2.
After watching the videos of it yesterday I was definitely going to purchase the Galaxy Note 2 on launch day in the UK. But if its not a supported feature in the EU/N7100 models then I think I will hold off.
The multiscreen feature is also available in hong kong's note 2, which is an international version.

This looks awesome. However when I was watching it I was thinking "Sweet!!! I can finally answer texts while browsing the internet!" But after looking at the apps in the side bar I didn't see sms in there. So I wonder what apps will be supported in this feature and if it will be possible to incorporate mods to get other apps to work.
That's an awesome feature. Hopefully the international version also has this.
But if it doesn't has, i still go for the Note II

Sms is present as an option. in the first video, i can see the sms icon below the gallery icon. Samsung should be highlighting that feature because it brings a desktop like view to the note. Definitely ordering now. was going to wait to see the new nexus and features of the next version of Android, but this just sealed the decision.

My mistake, I'm using 'ultimate rotation control'.
It works great on my galaxy note 1.
One of the big reasons I'm using it is it allows 180 degree rotation so I'm not always hitting the capacitive buttons.

That is an amazing feature but of all the Note 2 videos I have seen, it's the first one I have seen that has that (half-circular) tab on the left side of the screen. Looks like it's brought up by holding the 'back button'. I wonder if its just that no one knows about this 'shortcut' to open this feature. Or could this be an updated version of TouchWiz we are seeing?
I think you can enable the multi-window from the settings, because it make sense that not everybody want to have the half circle on left border by default.
Lets hope it is available in the international version
So are we saying that stock launcher on note 2 doesnt rotate landscape??

Android Apps that use Air View

Does anyone else know of any apps that take advantage of airview? I haven't had much luck. Here's a list of what I have.. I can try and keep it updated, but no promises.

[stock] Gallery
[stock] Calendar

It would be nice to see this incorporated into a Web browser and home launcher. Hover over a folder to see contents, hover over messaging icon to see last few messages, etc. It could be infinitely handy in a browser though.

It works in the stock samsung web browser, of course you have to enable it in air gestures.
I think its on the bottom?
When you hover over text it will give you a little pop up zoom in of the text, similar to when you press somewhere with more than one link and a pop up appears so you can make a more precise link click.

Smart Remote for Galaxy S4 has air gestures too
I think this thread is about Air View, the feature you see in Gallery if you hover your finger over a category. I've accidentally glitched it to be forced ON for all apps on my S5 for about 2 hours. (Went away after a reboot... ) It worked EVERYWHERE. Chrome (mouseover menus on websites!!!) and Google Launcher (only got tooltips for long app names, nothing else) to name just a couple. I'm thinking that Samsung just triggers part of Android's built-in USB mouse code... Maybe we can duplicate my accident with Xposed...?

Air Gesture not working in Stock Browser

I have air gesture turned on, and 'air jump' is on in the sub-menu, where it says "Scroll web pages in screen sized jumps".
But it doesn't work, and the symbol doesn't appear in the status bar either. It works fine in gallery so it's not hardware fault.
Can someone test to see if this is just a bug? I'm on stock unbranded UK firmware XXUBMJ1

Has anyone gotten this to work? When my Note 3 (Canadian SM-N900W8) was on the stock rom i couldn't get Air Jump to work with the stock browser. I am now on a custom rom (DarthStalker) and prior to this rom i was on X-Note and Air Jump Still didn't work. Did anyone figure out how to make it work?? As I think maybe its something simple like a line of code that needs to be enabled. In the Note 3 manual it tells you that you can use Air Jump with the browser but in the phone it only says you can use it with the email app (Stock ONLY). I used this quite frequently on my S4 So its a shame its not working on the Note 3.

Works for me, but only in Portrait mode from left to right, or right to left. The sensor does not seem to work in landscape mode since it was designed to see a hand that passes across it in not away from it.

Does anyone have an S4 that they can pull the Browser app from to try it on Note 3 with?
Hey guys, as you know in my Note 3 settings under "Air-Jump" it did NOT show web-pages as supported and only emails as supported. Last night i upgraded my Note 3 (SM-N900W8, Rogers) from Android 4.3 to the Mexican N900W8 Note 3 Android 4.4.2. Anyways, when i went into the "Air-Jump" menu it now SHOWED Webpages as supported!!! I click the "Try" button and it opened up a mock webpage where i could test this feature & showed the air-jump icon in the status bar AND >>>>>>> IT DID WORK. Super excited that i was, i opened up the stock samsung browswer and bam ......... the gestures didnt work! The app by default is full screen and when i slide down the status bar to see if the "Air-Gesture" icon was there it wasnt. Anyone have any ideas on whats going on and preventing the air-jump feature from working??
