Disable default Android browser - android

Is there a basic example showing how to disable the default Android browser on a Samsung Galaxy S6, MDM or otherwise, without root permissions? I’ve already tried the basic profile example; however, it does not encompass what I need.

If you go to
settings>apps>(all tab)>Browser>Click "Disable"
you won't have to ever answer if you want a link or anything to open in Browser or Chrome. It will act like Browser isn't on your phone and default to Chrome.

How to customize Android 10 (Samsung A10) Chrome Share menu (from mobile Chrome0?

I used to be able to override a flag in Chrome to hide the default share screen, thus giving direct/one-tap access to all the apps on my phone, but the option appears to be done now with Android 10.
I guess it could be sharing from any app on my phone, not just Chrome.
Any other way to do this?
Thanks.

Disable Samsung Browser's Pop-Up Player Feature

I have a website where users can watch videos (I used HTMLVideoElement).
In Samsung Browser, when entering full-screen mode, there is a button that allows to float the video, and watch it while scrolling.
It is also possible to use Samsung Browser's Video Assistant for that as well (video).
I wish to disable this feature, but couldn't find anything related.
Your help will be much appreciated :)
Thanks
SamSung browser has this Video element by default . disablign this mean one need to disable samsung browser by default.
You can do a work on HTML pages by explicitly disabling any external app in accessing you video content , this way the samsung browser would be able to pick you video content into its plugin.
Use Content Locker for HTML web pages which can disable samsung browser from picking up your video content on your webpage.

Setting default browser on Xiaomi MIUI phones

I am building a browser for Android and cant get set default browser to work for Xiaomi MIUI phones.
I realised that no other browsers made this work either. The default dialog pops up and I select my browser and tap always, but it fails to set it correctly and falls back to OS default browser.
Since other browsers cant do this either I gave up the idea and now thinking on sending the user to the right settings menu instead for manually setting it. (There is a settings menu for setting default browser in MIUI thats works when doing this manually)
Does someone know the intent for opening this menu from my app?
I cant find a complete lists of extra intents available.
What I found is the following list but it does not have anything for default browser settings menu.

Appium: Home page is always set to default on android default browser

When I open default browser using Appium, instead of given url, it opens default home page. Never mind if I set the home page to blank page, or something else. It works fine when opening browser manually, but when appium opens it, it is again set to default page.
I tested 2 devices with Android 4.1 and I always get the same issue on both.
This issue does not happen with Chrome browser.
Has anyone had this problem?
If you want to work with the stock Android browser using Appium, i suggest you run your tests on an emulator instead of the real real device.
Appium is compatible with Chrome on real Android devices but you can run the tests on the Stock Android browser if you use an Emulated device.
I have tried it out and it works.

Android Web Application - application is displaying above keyboard

I am running my web application built in using HTML5 on the android browser.
I have one search box on my home screen.
Whenever I tap inside the search input box the virtual keyboard appears and the application is shrinks and resizing with whatever available place above the keyboard.
This behavior I have seen on samsung galaxy tab (3.1), samsung galaxy note (2.3.6) and samsung S3(4.0)
But, if I run the same web application on the HTC desire(2.3.5) or even HTC evo 3D, the keyboard appears above the app and the application does not shrinks.
I am looking if there are any setting for web browser on android.
I know there are manifest file settings like resize pan and other for android hybrid as well as native application but I want to know if there are any settings for normal web application running on android browsers.
Try
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"
in your manifest file.
You might need to use android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize|adjustPan".
Place this code in the activity under application , where u want such setting
