Right? I don't think my S5 even had a shortcut to Chrome when I booted it up. I had to launch a Google Search to get online. I'm half temped to see if I or someone can backup the browser apk from my S4 and side load it on here. I have a sneaky suspicion that it's not compatible with android 4.4 in part because it's one of the only browsers I've used that allows you to set the default download location to the extSdCard. For this, Chrome sucks, and for no damn good reason.

I was wondering the same thing when I first got my S5. I asked about it in another thread & was told that Google Chrome is now the default browser.

Verizon deleted the stock browser from the S5 and the One M8. I was mad. Chrome is a resource and battery hog. I liked the new Samsung browser. Ugggh Verizon.

As of now, just Chrome. That's the only one it came with. I'm just waiting for root to flash the stock Samsung browser. I could download something else from the Play Store, but I'll just wait on root.

I am also having the same problem even though I have the same flash installed that worked on my S3..
Firefox beta or boat browser.

bump. .. to see if anyone has gotten flash to work with the stock browser. Even though it is a bit gimmicky, I would like to take advantage of the quick scroll feature.

Is the stock browser still the android "browser" or is it Chrome now?
If it is chrome that explains why it doesnt work. I am pretty sure that flash doesnt work with chrome.

Yeah, that's why I was asking. Don't have the phone yet myself. Tomorrow!
It is stock Android. That is the only one compatible with the smart scroll at the moment.

Would it be possible to port the Galaxy S3's browser to work with the Galaxy S4? As I understand it, the Galaxy S3 browser supports flash

Internet Browser in QSlide app?

So I have been looking pretty hard and pretty sure there is no browser available in the qslide app drawer. Then some one posted a picture of a T-Mobile G2 and there he is showing off a mini browser in a qslide app.
Now I'm on AT&T and there is nothing like this on this version or others as far as I was aware.
Why does the T-Mobile one have it? and is there anyway to get it on ours?
I do indeed have Browser in my QSlide apps.

No browser option in my Qslide either. I wouldn't have noticed since I have the Qslide app drawer hidden usually. I'm on VZW.

Why don't you search it yourself instead of demanding? It takes only a few mins to do so.

Is the Google launcher better or touchwiz?

Like the title says
Sent from my SM-G900V using XDA Free mobile app
I personally prefer Google launcher, the only problem I've had and that made me go back to TouchWiz is that when you put the phone on Ultra Power Saving Mode, it kept deleting my layout and only leaving a couple things in one screen
It's subjective. Betty/Wilma, peas/carrots, beer/wine. I use Google Launcher.
I was just looking for that. Sorry, but where can I find Google launcher?

I've used the Google Now launcher since the day I got the phone. It's fast and smooth, and folders work as they should.
