Thank you for the info. I changed the open gl rendering and now NBC plays.

The only way to keep the default browser in desktop mode with TouchWiz is to root and install a modified framework-res.apk

If that doesn't sound like something you want to do there's always Dolphin HD and Opera.

This issue ruined a lot of my browsing experience... Root on this doesn't seem really necessary till now IMO:'(

This is just crazy. I can't even get about:debug to go to the setting menu now that I installed the touchwiz update.

There must be some way to do this without rooting.

While we're on browsers...am I the only one that no longer has a button to get to my Homepage?

Nope. I have the same thing.

How do we get Samsung to fix the UA string to stay on desktop? It's just unacceptable.

Does no one seriously care about this issue?

I care, but can do nothing until Samsung fixes it. Hopefully the TW fix we are waiting for will address it.

The thing that is most annoying about this is that none of the other browsers are as good or stable as the stock TW browser. Dolphin for Pad is a good start it seems. Does anyone know where we can contact Samsung directly about this issue incase they arent aware of it? An official forum perhaps? This issue is annoying enough to make we want to return it honestly if they dont fix it. Others have mentioned that it forgets the setting after powered off but in my case it will revert everytime the debug menu is removed from settings. (happens automatically several times a day)
