How to Change Your Default Android Browser
It’s no secret that the Android offers their respective users a chance to use a number of different internet browser. For example: standard, Opera mini and some more (take Skyfire).
Though the standard browser available in factory setting of an Android phone is most comfortable to use, opera Mini and some other browsers can offer you way more control over the search tools, themes and choice of extensions.
Skyfire gives you an extra hand should you need some flash-movie preview. A similar situation may turn out with your mail client, music player, viewer graphics, with the desktop manager, but in general with anything.
However, some of the free applications have certain limits i.e. you either have to pay for them after expiration period or you have to download it again in case you want to trouble shoot the application.
In addition to the desktop manager for Android OS there are a huge number of browsers. Therefore, with the browsers many have a similar situation. Select Default Browser which is extremely simple, no settings required, does it strictly for what is intended.
The pinnacle of the evolution of such small but useful utilities for Android is the program DefaultApp Reset. The developers went ahead and decided to give their users a control over all the applications to trouble shoot.
