I had Dolphin, but I found it a bit more cumbersome than Opera. The one thing I did like about Dolphin is it actually had a one-click home page button. I don't know why this isn't a standard feature in all mobile web browsers.

The Hockey Writers just released an android app. I don't have Android or IPhone (released day before), but both getting good feedback.

Yes that does happen to me too. I wouldn't say a ton, but semi-regularly anyway. I find its worst when you're on message boards actually, like here.
On a side note, does anyone with the Twitter app find it freezes a lot too? I check Twitter lots throughout the day, and I'd say it happens 3-4 times every day.

I don't think I'm smart enough to have a smartphone. I don't even know where you guys are downloading these apps from?
Shazam? Opera mini browser? Pandora?

You're right, you're not smart enough.

Had an idea!
|
Anyone else use Kik Messenger? I need something to text with friends in the states and the normal SMS texting doesn't work as it costs them a fortune to text to Canada.
I've played around with it a bit and it seems pretty good. From what I understand it actually ties into your phone number, so when anyone in your address book starts using Kik it lets you know. But, it doesn't actually REQUIRE a number to work.
Seems fast and all too.

Would that be the same intention as WhatsApp?

More or less, but I believe WhatsApp starts charging after the first year or something like that.
Kik seems free through and through.

I felt like an idiot using Opera Mini. How the hell do I get it to navigate to a URL when I enter it in the address bar? There's no option for me to hit enter or anything. All it does us provide me with an option to Google Search it.

Is there an enter key or a go button on the pop up keyboard?

When you begin entering the Url into the location bar, there should be a green highlighted button (enter key) to press.

On Swiftkey the very bottom right button on the keyboard is a check mark, on the standard keyboard on my Galaxy the very bottom right button on the keyboard is an enter key. Check again, I find it hard to imagine your keyboard not having one.

Yep, I found it. I'm an idiot. That's really embarassing.

Edit: I posted in the wrong thread
Edit 2: Because Edit 1 was confusing.
Edit 3: There actually is no Edit 3. I'm just being a jerk now.
