Application Request - Related to Opera and Skyfire

mbartels · #1 (**permalink**) 01-24-2010, 09:29 AM

I typically use Opera for web browing since I prefer it to Skyfire. As we all know, however, Skyfire can show many pages that Opera can't.

Is there anyway to add a menu item, a softkey, or an option when you press and hold that says "Open in Skyfire"? That way I can browse with Opera and don't have to mess with opening Skyfire manually and doing the whole copying and pasting of the URL.

Possible? Impossible? Stupid idea?

That would be pretty useful.... no idea how to do it though.

I am pretty sure there is an app that will do that for you...

I used it just bc i didn't know how to change my default browser (it will do that). But i am pretty sure you can set it up so that when you open a web page- it will pop up and give you an option to choose a browser. I could be wrong though- for me it was a little complicated cause i am a noob. I would just link you to the page on XDA but they are down right now. So here is the cab. I encourage you to do some research before you install bc like i said, i only played with it a little. it is called JZSmartMort. Please make sure to visit the Dev's thread and thank him if it works out for you.
