Works on most of CyanogenMod 7 and AOSP 2.3+ phones!

Please make backup before flashing!


Or just extract the lib folder to system/libs and restart.


Note:

-This mod doesn't work for MIUI!

I didn't build this mod myself. But modified it a bit.

Source is HTC Desire Z stock browser library

Press thanks button if it works for you. :)

That may be a stupid question-would this MOD work if I am not using the stock Android browser? What if I am using Dolphin Browser for example? Would it work still?
Thanks.

It works but it broke about 7 of my apps including this one. I couldn't fix it by fixing permissions either. I uninstalled a few and reinstalled and that did nothing. The only thing that fixed my apps was doing a reflash of my current version on CM7. Thanks for the mod....its much appreciated but I can't run it stable with my everyday apps.

Thanks for the Mod. Extracted lib folder to system/lib but it doesnt seem to work on pheonix blood v1.6 rom. Browser just opens and then closes w/ no error.
The same on me a xtracted the libs from that folder to system/lib but it closes.
It supposed to moved the whole folder or just the libs??
Its pretty fast.

Works like a charm on PBv1.6. Just finished watching a whole episode of The Walking Dead on cm7 browser without any glitches or stops...used only 4G too no wifi.

So I retried the mod again and I received the same results. I found that whenever I am using an app that reaches out to the internet (XDA, gmail, etc) as soon as a request is made, the app crashes out or reloads the previous screen the phone was about before I began receiving data. If I remove your HW Accelaration files and reflash my current version of CM7...the problem goes away. I do see that this mod is fast! I wish I could get my apps stable with it though :\

These are all related to the phones trying to send data....it crashes during that time. Its the same problem I'm having with my apps. If the phone tries to send data....it crashes (browser and other apps that use the internet).
