Get Chrome from market if you are on ICS

i love Chrome. seems a ton slicker and faster than any of the other browsers. my old fav was stock, but the tabbing is great and on tiny buttons the magnifying glass is great for hitting the right link.
Chrome is nice but unfortunately adobe confirmed today that they will not be working on flash for the chrome browser at all. Flash is a deal breaker especially for an android device browser.

Why is flash so important for you guys? Most videos are linked through youtube, which will always work, or HTML5. All the flash stuff that I see loaded on my phone is advertisements which make it slow. Ive disabled flash on my phone because I just dont see a use for it.
Not everybody watches YouTube videos. I like to watch my shows at work and other videos from websites that don't use youtube .

Chrome has been great for me. Syncs across my phone, home computer and work computer. I flash a lot of ROMs and I don't have to keep re-saving bookmarks. Love how the google account sends the bookmarks to the stock browser too on ICS.
Also, desktop mode was enabled on the latest update. Just press menu while in the browser and you will see a check box

Chrome was working perfectly for me while I had a rom with the first radio (UCLC4). Now that I've updated the radio from UCLC4 to UCLD2 no matter what rom I load I can't get Chrome to run. It shows the initial screen, vibrates, then about a minute later vibrates 3 times then force closes.
I'm not a developer so I can't say exactly what's going on, but from my perspective it seems to be the new radio.

Hrm, I've had Chrome working fine on both Sky ICE UCLD2 and NexusMod ICS Zero (also UCLD2 based). Did you update the ROM to one based on the newest ICS leak as well as the radio?
Just to be clear, it started giving me errors only after getting the latest chrome, no other change.

Mine does the same. I did upgrade the modem though. I'm using the newest ICS alien build.

If anyone finds a fix to the force close problem, let me know. I have done everything I can think of, even Darkside's Superwipe.

21In case you forgot, you can run Google Chrome on your ICS device now (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.android.chrome&hl=en). There are some goodies there which are not available in stock browser and you might like it better.1
I'm assuming you're on GB still since you mentioned you tried a couple of months ago. Using the ICS browser it automatically syncs your chrome bookmarks.1Not everybody watches YouTube videos. I like to watch my shows at work and other videos from websites that don't use youtube .
