Just tried it, nope, doesn't work.

The problem is not with all sites.

Re: Any one know of better browser than the stock one

Well, not all sites pages are the same. Some are WAP, some HTML and some XML. Others are actually images which don't play well.
Go to iDrudgeReport.Com and see how it works. I know it plays well on Androids with the stock browser. If it doesnot with your's, then something is strange in your phone.

Re: Any one know of better browser than the stock one

Im a huge fan of Dolphin HD. It reminds me of google chrome with the extensions and tab browsing. For all out speed, I like the new Dolphin Mini

Re: Any one know of better browser than the stock one

I use Dolphin HD, no problems for me.

Displays sites just like it would on a desktop, unless the site forces mobile version.

It just doesn't size right when you double tap zoom.

Is their and alternate browser that works better. I like that it's fast and flash works but I'm so tired of zig zagging down a column of text to read it.

It happens on multipe sites but not all.

I have mobile view off. I hate when Mobile View is on. I think it may behave different with mobile view on but I don't like a lot of Mobile sites.
The Skyfire browser is my default browser.

I really like the dolphin browser... Guess I will have to checkout this xScope just to see what it is all about. Are you using the free or paid version?

Re: Any one know of better browser than the stock one

I love Dolphin HD as well and sometimes will use skyfire, I rarely use the default browser at all.
