Galaxy S5 :: Won't Keep A Default Internet Browser
May 1, 2015
My s5 won't keep a default internet browser. I keep having to pick between chrome, internet, and dolphin. Especially in Google Search. It's annoying that I have to set a browser everytime.
I recently upgraded from an s4 to a s5 and am having trouble transferring My internet bookmarks to the s5. I already have it checked in the sync settings but there not showing up. I am using the same Samsung account on both phones. Also Im using the default browser.
i have downloaded & install motocast on my laptop. but when i try to sign in the circle just goes around & around & nothing happends. i have also try making internet explorer my default browser with no luck. java updated to lates version here is a pic of what i am talking a bout
When I click a link in an app, I want it to always use the standard browser on my S5. But instead, it asks me if I want to use Chrome or the standard browser. How can I always choose the standard one?
Every time i change chrome to default browser it does not stick. If i click on a link in email, google+, or twitter i still get prompted to use chrome or internet.
I've searched and searched everyone says same thing but nothing works.
I've checked "always open with" chrome and does not work.
I've went under all apps and tried to clear default for internet but it is grayed out and i can not click it.
Under default applications it does not show browsers so i can't modify there.
Under application manager I've also reset application preferences and this did not let me change the default browser either.
I've downloaded an app called "default app manager" and it allows me to change the browser default but it does not "stick". as soon as i click a link i'm still prompted with an option for browser.
When I'm Twitter, and I click on a link, the "Orange browser" opens up so I can view whatever I clicked on. Is there any way that I can use firefox as the default browser? I've looked almost everywhere in the phone menus to alter things but can't find anything.
Changing the default search engine in the stock browser doesn't work in new tabs?
For instance, I'll change the default search engine to Bing. That tab will use Bing for searches. If I open a new tab or close and reopen the app, it will use Google for searches again.

how to close the Internet browser on the S2. After viewing several pages via links I don't know how to exit the browser. If I just exit the app by pressing the Home button it means that the next time I tap the Internet button it takes me immediately to the last page I was viewing. Surely that's wrong and there must be some way of closing the browser properly.

I've installed the Opera Mobile 10 browser and have set it as the default browser in the default programs menu. Still it does not seem to be the default browser. It seems as if the phone just ignores this setting. If I go to internet from the Media menu (upright corner) etc. I still get the Nokia browser.
