Cannot set default browser

[plastic_green_head]

Girlfriend and I just received our V10's today and are having an issue. Neither of us are able to set Dolphin Browser to be the default browser.

There is an option in the Dolphin Browser settings for "Set as default browser" but the "Always" and "Just once" options are missing when you try to set it up. They are there both of the old Galaxy S3's we have, but they don't show up on the V10. Tried going into the Android app settings and there was no browser set as default & cleaning all default app settings did not remedy it. Tried uninstall/reinstalling Dolphin & nothing. It let's you pick Dolphin, but since it won't let you select "Always"... the option within Dolphin just stays as if it has not been set up yet.

Anyone else? Here's the link to Dolphin:

Seems to be working here. To test I cleared the defaults in Chrome in the Applications section, then when I click some link, I choose Dolphin and left the box checked to use as default browser. Now all links to straight to Dolphin, and the Dolphin settings show the use as default option turned on. Is that what you did also? I think the option for just once or always is replaced by that check box to use as default browser?

Not exactly. Here's a video of me trying to set it as default. Does the same thing on my girlfriends V10. On our S3's when the option to select Dolphin comes up there are choices for "Always" and "Just once".

Ah ok, if I were you I'd forget about the Dolphin settings and just let the OS handle it: clear defaults, click on any link, choose Dolphin and leave the box checked to use as default. It's worth a try anyway..

Hi, I think it is bug or something. You can send your vedio about this via email to [email protected]. May it helps

Yeah, just clear defaults in your other browsers and then set Dolphin as the new default with each prompt.
